Donald Trump has always been corrupt, extremist, soulless, narcissistic and sociopathic, but he’s now fully senile on top of it. Trump’s senility is now factoring into everything he says and does. For instance when he was asked about why he pardoned a January 6th terrorist who assaulted a police officer, Trump had a bizarrely senile moment.

Trump responded to the question by asking, “Was it a pardon?” Trump then went on to (incorrectly) suggest that he might have commuted the guy’s sentence instead. Then Trump (also incorrectly) suggested that the pardon of this guy hadn’t happened yet. Then Trump got totally lost and began ranting incoherently about Portland of all things.

There are a couple things at play here. First, it’s clear that Trump doesn’t even know who he’s pardoning; these decisions are being made by his babysitters. Second, Trump is too far gone to even come up with a plausible answer when he’s confronted with the decisions that his babysitters are making for him. There’s really nothing left of this guy.
