The former president repeatedly misspoke during a speech on Wednesday.

Speaking in Long Island on Wednesday, Donald Trump was as bombastic and boastful as ever—but also slurred his words on several occasions.

Trump stumbled over words like “migrants” and “Russia” and had trouble stringing sentences together. In another instance, Trump said he was “greater even than Elvis” because unlike the King, he doesn’t have a guitar—a riff that has increasingly featured in his speeches.

    While he has always had incoherent rambling since 2016. It is getting worse over time. Instead of switching aubjects at the end of sentences, he is changing midsentence and having trouble with simple words.

    He didn’t have issues with saying ‘migrant’ 8 years ago, but that word is throwing him for a loop regularly now.

      He’s better at some times and not others, though. He wasn’t this bad at the debates.

      He kept saying that Biden must be in drugs to stay awake, it makes me wonder what kind of amphetamines Trump is taking.
