Trump said: “Israel would never have existed. The attack on Israel would never have happened. Remember, Iran was broke. They were broke. Ukraine would never have happened. I talked a lot with Putin. I got along with them, although he announced the other day that he would much rather see Biden as president, and I agree with him. I agree.”
This is not the same Donald Trump from previous campaigns. Donald Trump is now a gaffe machine who must be chained to his teleprompter in order to give a speech. Trump appears to be in decline, as he has difficulty delivering a basic campaign speech without making the kind of mistakes that should raise doubts about his suitability to return to the White House.
Donald Trump was trying to criticize Biden, but ended up supporting him.
Trump’s speech at CPAC was low-energy and was not the rowdy, applause-filled event that has occurred during previous conference appearances.
Donald Trump went to CPAC and endorsed his Democratic opponent.
This is really necessary for anyone to know Trump’s cognitive abilities in 2024.
