Trump’s weird dancing episode may finally bring his mental decline center stage for voters—and reveal him as the worst possible choice for president.

This is the week Donald Trump’s fitness for office finally became an issue.

It wasn’t, as we all have been shocked to discover, the treason or the rape or the 34 felony counts or the impeachments that did it though. In fact, the moment Trump crossed the line from extremist maniac to extremist maniac who appears to need round-the-clock care, soft foods and an early bedtime, was not caused by any of his traditional acts of recklessness or mayhem.

Perversely, in fact, what ultimately did him in may turn out to have been the fact that most Americans didn’t think he could get any worse as a dancer than he has been all his adult life…and then he did.

And oh, the way he did it.

I would not call it "dancing" myself.

1. 34 felony convictions, not counts

Can you get it right?

3. Well, but..

If you do some googling, you might find that it is not a conviction until sentencing has taken place.

"In United States practice, conviction means a finding of guilt (i.e., a jury verdict or finding of fact by the judge) and imposition of sentence." You can find it anywhere.

He has not been sentenced yet.

2. Fantastic article!

In wholly different circumstances, I would feel sorry for this man. He is losing his mind and the whole world is watching it happen. I would say it would be as embarrassing as, for instance, pooping your pants in public, but he has already done that. As the article points out, those 39 minutes of music and weird body movements may have done more to bring him down and lose him votes than everything else that is so wrong with him for POTUS. And he has three more weeks to fall yet farther.

4. COULD this be the tipping point?

I guess anything is possible but he's done bat shit crazy stuff before on stage at rallies and his cultists stick by his deranged, fat ass so...not holding my breath. GOTV and bury this dirt bag.
