“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”

@aaron.rupar “The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man”, Rupar posted on April 5

Too bad this isn’t a screaming headline in the NYT instead of a tiny caption under a photo.

@grammasaurus @aaron.rupar That's hardly news to anybody with experience with relatives with dementia. I've seen the signs as early as 2022.

Of course, I've seen the signs he's a reprehensible piece of rotting shit since the 1980s.

@lerxst @aaron.rupar It’s not news to people who have seen dementia up close, but the issue is why aren’t MSM outlets covering him accurately?

Sane-washing helps no one.

@grammasaurus @aaron.rupar they’re by and large cowards, and/or support him thinking they’re immune to the blowback due to their lofty positions.
