'Does he not see that?' MSNBC guest alarmed by signs of Trump's physical deterioration
March 04, 2024
Following a discussion over the media's obsession with President Joe Biden's age while ignoring Donald Trump's increasing failure to speak coherently, one of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" regulars noted the former president's alarming physical deterioration and the fact that he seems to be unaware of it.
MSNBC host Joe Scarborough began the discussion by directing his comments to former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) by pointing out, "You know, newspapers will go, 'You know, Donald Trump is old, too,' but they focus on Joe Biden more. Well, yeah! They don't talk about all the crazy things Donald Trump says because they've gotten so used to it."
"Donald Trump has been saying strange, bizarre things for such a long time," Scarborough continued. "When he stammers and staggers across the stage like he did this weekend talking about his good friend Mr. Argentina when he is still confusing Barack Obama for Joe Biden, you know, when he confused Nikki Haley for [Nancy Pelosi], you know, you go on and on and on. Nothing from the media, it's just very minimal, that's obviously shaping the polls."

"Yeah, it really has been way out of proportion," the former Democratic U.S. senator agreed. "I'm speaking as somebody who affectionately has known for a long time that Joe Biden does stuff sometimes that is confusing and he's been this way always. Part of it is his stutter, part of it is the way he speaks."
"But look at Trump," she said, changing gears, "You know, one thing that stuck out to me lately with Donald Trump, there is not a vainer man on the planet than Donald Trump. So his deterioration, I think, is reflected in his appearance."
"What stuck out to me, I know this seems like a little thing, somebody on his last hair dye job gave him bright orange," she observed. "I mean, it's not the normal color he usually dyes his hair. And he looked in the mirror and didn't notice the difference. I mean, if you look at the clips you've run, if you look at what you're showing now is older and his hair color is not as dramatic, but it is literally carrot orange right now. Does he not see that?"
'Is everybody around him, is it the emperor wears no clothes?" she asked. "Is everybody around him saying, 'Hey, listen, guy, your hair is on fire in terms of this fluorescent orange color.' To me, that reflects his mental decline as much as anything. Clearly, he's looking in the mirror and doesn't realize that something is amiss."
