I genuinely think people who say he has dementia are coping to ignore the possibility that someone can be that hypocritical, lie that much, and still face no consequences whatsoever.

I think you underestimate how stupid he is.

It's a bit of both, I believe the man himself is more invested in his own vanity than the white nationalist agenda. However, don't underestimate the people around him. They are evil not stupid.

It can be both, but he’s been stupid for a long time.

100%

Because there are plenty of real life or death issues Trump is squarely on the wrong side of and can and should be attacked on.

so instaed, Muricans excuse trump like this, repeat to themselves "we are not there yet", and bravely sit down again

I completely and wholeheartedly disagree.
Whatever he does wrong -which is basically everything-, whether it is big or small, should be attacked and questioned whenever and wherever possible.
He's fond of using the word witch-hunt and he should be hunted down like the 'witches' of times past.

If that was the last president or Obama making a similar mistake the media would be yelling from the rooftops about being fit to lead but because it's Fatboy Tangerine it's ok. NO, fuck that bullshit. Don't let him get away with anything. No matter how little.

The reason he gets away with the big shit he pulls is because he has never had consequences for the small stuff. He should never be forgiven nor let off, not one little bit. Letting him off this goof just because he's a convicted rapist is not the way to go about things, especially when it's dementia ridden narcissists like him.

What should happen is pulling him up on everything and hounding him about everything until his decrepit excuse for a heart explodes.
