The Republican front-runner made another gaffe as he tried to explain away all his other ones.

Donald Trump’s recent memory failures sure do look like some kind of cognitive decline. In the last few months, Trump has mixed up President Joe Biden with former President Barack Obama, slurred his words, bragged about his favorite type of violent death and that he calls corn “non-liquid gold,” insisted you need voter ID to buy bread, and confused his GOP competitor Nikki Haley for California Representative Nancy Pelosi, claiming that the former failed to act during January 6.

But during a campaign rally on Wednesday, Trump had a new excuse for all that, claiming all of his short circuits are actually just sarcastic jokes.

    His verbal diarrhea always contains strange bursts of solid matter in it…in this case:

    SPIDEN!!!

      In this one, tiny, insignificant case, I’m going to give our asshole criminal buddy Trump the benefit of the doubt. This looks more like a transcription error and he really said, “that’s Biden.” The level of general evil insanity from Trump remains deeply troubling of course.

      “But when I say that Obama is the president of our country bah bah bah, they go, ‘He doesn’t know that Spiden [sic], he doesn’t know.’ So it’s very hard to be sarcastic.”

        I watched the video clip and the interpretation was correct IMO. 🤷

        He may have intended to say “it’s Biden” but “Spiden” is what actually came out. So it’s “Spiden [sic]”.
