    Heard that the ex-President was going to appear at Iowa football game.
    Can anyone tell us how he was received?

    Palmer Report @PalmerReport

    Donald Trump got flipped off and booed at the Iowa-Iowa State game
    today. There's a reason why he rarely makes public appearances
    anymore: the large majority of Americans hate him. Also he's senile.

    Oh no you don't. Don't you even think about introducing mental decline
    as a possible escape clause for this teflon sonofabitch. He's not
    senile, he's not suffering mental lapses, he a psychopathic,
    narcissistic windbag shitposting would-be autocrat and deadbeat former
    gameshow contestant whose inherited real estate empire he turned into a
    string of bankruptcies.

    He's not senile, he's a steaming pile of offal. Don't give him a single fucking excuse that would prevent him being held accountable for the
    outrages he's made us endure.

    Senile can refer to a loss of physical abilities in old age, but it
    usually refers to decreased memory and mental faculties.

    Definitions of senile adjective
    mentally or physically infirm with age

    Thanks, you said it better than I could. I didn't reply, but I was
    quite surprised to someone trying to claim that Trump is senile... far
    from it. Perhaps it's a retort from an unoriginal Biden-fan?

    ...Which doesn't even come close to describing Trump's state of mind.
    He might not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but he knows what he's
    doing.

    A relative statement...being in a legal quagmire would indicate
    otherwise.

    Musk is not the man many perceive, nor is Trump...there are others who
    are or have been involved.

    Two things can be true.
