Had this been Biden, Fox and co. would be railing, raving, gesticulating for days about being too-old and unfit to serve.

But it's still interesting that this other old presidential contender is fumbling his words. Might be stress as much as age. He's gotta be concerned about his future with all this.

Typical guilty shitheel tactic: play the "old and frail" card for sympathy points, just like how Harvey Weinstein busted out the walker for photo ops. He's still a rapist and Trump is still a traitor (and probably also a rapist).

There's no probably. If New York's rape laws weren't so archaic and specific, he would've been found guilty of rape.

Damn are they being updated at least?

The people that update the laws will never put themselves in danger by being effected by them

"I am Biden laptop, Crime Family and I have the best age, everyone agrees my age is the best around."

I can't stand Trump, but to be fair, I've struggled with both of those questions before

Yeah, this doesn't sound like a Trump good or Trump bad thing. It just sounds like he was having anxiety, as he should have been.

I hope he's suffering as much as he's made the rest of us.

Just seems weird because he seemed untouchable before

Yeah Trump is scared. As he should be.

I hope he has many sleepless nights and when he does fall asleep that he wakes up five minutes later in a cold sweat. Fuck that guy.

US Magistrate Judge Moxila Upadhyaya then asked the former president to state his full name. “Donald J Trump — John — Donald John Trump,” Mr Trump replied hesitantly. He was then asked for his date of birth, and tripped over his words again. At first, he said “seven seven,” before correcting himself and saying “77”.

Saved you all a click, there's no recording of it just this text account of it

Took him a while to recall the actual truth rather than the bullshitting he does on his golf course.
