Trump Is Senile... Now What?

4D Chess at a Poker table

About one month ago, Donald Trump floated the idea that he would run for a third term. He’s “joked” about it for years. Steve Bannon recently made waves by suggesting it was a serious possibility. When asked by a reporter if Trump’s plan was to have JD Vance win the presidency next time and then hand the authority back to Trump, the president acknowledged that this was a potential option.

But while the political Left is worried about Trump finding a way to remain in office all the way until 2032, the real question is whether Trump will be able to survive until the end of his current term. He is already showing signs of serious cognitive decline.

Check out this excellent video by the Courier TikTok account, which gives a verbatim sample of Trump’s speech during his recent visit to the Middle East. He does a great job highlighting just how insane Trump’s rhetoric has become, and puts it in context by asking how people would react if these words had been said by Joe Biden, Barak Obama, or any other president:

He points out that Trump’s normal manner of speaking hides his incoherence. Trump mashes together concepts and jumps around as if he’s keeping the room entertained with little asides, but he’s actually trying to recover from stumbles and gaffes, buying time and trying to remember what he’s even talking about. Trump isn’t stupid, his brain just isn’t working right; and so he has to come up with distractions and hope people don’t catch on. Here’s the full speech, in case you think the reporter isn’t being honest (the clip he quoted from is around the 10 minute 30 second mark).

Oldest president, biggest drop

The fact is, Trump is the oldest president ever sworn into office. He will be 82 by the next election, which means he would be a whopping 86 by the end of a third term, if he got it. And yes, he has walked back those previous statements about running for a third term, but was it really a joke the whole time to “troll” the media, or has he been forced to accept that his days are numbered?

Recently, I wrote about how Trump has been politically fumbling the ball and making an embarrassment of himself. This was eclipsed by the spectacle of Elon Musk publicly destroying his own reputation on national TV for months. But now that Musk is out of the picture, the pressure is back on Trump, and we have to pay close attention. I said in my article that Trump was unable to “get it up, politically” by failing to sell anyone (except the sycophants and cultists) about the wisdom of tariffs, which he repeatedly lied about by claiming it was a tax on foreign governments, not an expense paid by Americans. His fake tariff charts, fake DOGE savings, fake release of the Epstein files, humiliating Cybertruck commercial at the White House, deportation of protesters who spoke against Israel’s genocide, and many other political fumbles are starting to add up already. He’s not savvy. He isn’t tapping into the pulse of the country. Tech oligarchs lined up to kiss his ass, media bowed to him in submission, foreign leaders give him money and gifts, but he’s become clumsy.

The First 100 Days of 'The Doge' and 'The Golden Age'

On this Substack I have pointed out Trump’s low energy and strange ramblings during his 2024 election campaign. He performed poorly at rallies and was failing to win over crowds like he used to. He had lost his old sense of humor, his wit, and his charm. Even two years ago he was much more focused. Now he seemed grudging and sluggish; he muttered the words from the teleprompter and wasted minutes at a time trying to find some quip when he went off-script. When his jokes and banter didn’t work, he would just wave it off or shrug his shoulders. He’s like a man trying to remember why people used to love him.

In the end, he had to pretend to get shot, serve burgers at McDonald’s, sit in a Cybertruck with Adin Ross, and go on multiple stoner podcasts in order to lock in votes. It simply wasn’t the same Trump we knew in 2016, or even 2020. I think he was mentally and emotionally “over it” already, and he believed he would lose again and go to prison for his felony convictions. The Deep State gave him no choice but to win, and the Democrats ran the least likable candidates in history against him in order to make it easy. His job isn’t finished.

In the end, Trump was still barely staying ahead of Kamala Harris until these big stunts were pulled, and the Rogansphere carried him over the finish—which is why those podcasts were promoted by every algorithm. During this time, interviewers were coddling him, asking soft questions, practically feeding him lines, since everyone wanted to see him win. Then, many noted with surprise how the transition from Biden to Trump was completely smooth and uncontroversial this time, with nobody disputing the result. Those who suspect Trump was chosen by the Deep State to swoop in and scam America once again are right to be suspicious. Why the mainstream media isn’t talking about his current senility now that he’s actually in office and doing serious damage to the world is a mystery.

The many paths of a senile Boomer-in-Chief

One possibility going forward is that Trump will be compliant, docile, and checked out. He may start to listen to advisers and give authority to others, the way Biden was reported to have done. This might make him popular among those Deep State handlers and lobbyists who prefer to steer the ship from the shadows. Another route is that Trump becomes hostile, stubborn, and refuses to admit that he isn’t in control, lashing out and making hasty decisions just to prove he can. I think we can see some evidence of that already. A third option is that he starts using drugs to increase his cognition when it matters most, like many accused Biden of doing during critical moments (like debates), and thus swing from one extreme to the other. If mRNA technology really is the answer to all of life’s problems, it would be interesting to see if the military pharma complex would be willing to give him the full treatment and keep him strong and sharp.

Of course, a single crazy, incoherent, rambling speech—no matter how painful—is not enough to write off Trump’s brain for the next four years. It may be discovered that he just needs a better diet and more sleep (he has been famous for eating garbage and barely sleeping at all his whole adult life). While I’m not personally planning to sit through Trump’s endless press briefings to confirm my speculation on this, I do hope to see others reporting on his fluency, banter, etc. in the coming weeks and months.

I also feel the need to float the hypothetical Thought Experiment that the Pentagon Collapse Group is poisoning Trump in order to weaken his mind, which would cause him to make a fool of himself and get him kicked out of office with the fourth article of the 25th Amendment (which disqualifies a president from serving because of their incapacitation). Trump’s enemies could return in full force and finally use this much-discussed trump card, giving him an even more galling legacy than Joe Biden. In this scenario, it could hurry up the succession to JD Vance, who is the sleeper agent; the Trojan Horse of Peter Thiel, one of the engineers of the Pentagon Collapse Group.

As a reminder, I don’t subscribe to the notion that Trump is a pure puppet of anyone, Zionists, bankers, or anyone else. But I also believe he is in control. He’s a participant in an active struggle for the direction of the USA and the world, and he wants to prove that he is worthy to be trusted with the responsibility. There are a thousand levers of power at the highest levels, and they only move in harmony to the extent that they have a worthwhile risk to take. So for Trump to genuinely win the respect of the powerful, he has to take risks, defy the odds, and make history by showing that he is better at the game than the quiet strategists who typically make the plays. He has to show his commitment to the cause, play ball with those who have other ideas, and survive attacks. Importantly, he also has to be able to sell people on really big lies. He used to be a master of this, behind closed doors and in public. But all of this falls apart if he can’t string together sentences anymore.

Every time I write about Trump, I find myself explaining my unusual theory, which is that he made a “deal” with the US military’s shadow government to be the president during a cataclysmic transition of America, from the old paradigm to the future paradigm—the New Age, if you will. He is opposed by the civilian-criminal CIA/globalist/NGO/Fabian side of the intelligence world (which I call the Syndicate), which fears the old hardline patriots plotting in the Pentagon’s underground think tanks (which I call the Collapse Group).

Trump was tricked by the Syndicate with COVID-19 into believing that this was his chance to preside over the grand transformation. This is why he went all-in with it, and even praised the mRNA vaccines the great solution humanity needed. He thought “his side” (the Collapse Group) were going to suddenly collapse society with a bioweapon from China, and he would be given his entire second term to and then prevail over the Great Reset. But instead, they screwed up his legacy, erased all the progress he made, printed trillions of dollars and gave it to the wealthiest. They spent four years taking America to the brink and pushing him into legal deep waters. The Collapse Group used this time to create desperation for a savior, so that he could come back with a fury.

I’ve also written about the possibility that Trump was supposed to usher in a new wave of UFO hysteria as soon as he came into office, and how he refused to play along because he knew it would hurt his legacy:

If this theory is true, then it makes sense to me that Trump could be “punished” for failing to play his role in the script so far. He has squashed the New Jersey drone hysteria and killed off a major psyop form “his side”. Releasing the JFK files and opening up more information about Martin Luther King Jr. and 9/11 were all supposed to fuel demand for transparency and “disclosure”. But Trump doesn’t seem the least bit interested in stoking those fires, and guys like Joe Rogan are left scratching their heads and wondering what happened to the avalanche of shocking revelations we were promised.

I think Trump is probably just getting old and has been through too many briefings, and just wants to protect his legacy while getting revenge on those who hurt him, like Netanyahu, Justin Trudeau, and a few others. He’s slipping, “sundowning” as kids call it, and he wants to combat that by swinging for the fences over and over politically, hoping to be appointed the king of the world by the Collapse Group. He wants to be the biggest, the best, the brightest, and he’s frustrated that everyone is just using him, not fearing him. I think he wants to unleash the chaos that will bring about the military’s great endgame, but he doesn’t want to become a fool in the process. That’s going to be a difficult wire to walk. And if he really is mentally declining, I think he’s playing 4D chess at a poker table.
