Republicans voted Reagan in twice so it doesn’t really matter.
ngl I’d probably forget them too. Fuck trump anyway.
Yes, fuck Trump but forgetting a guy who interviewed you months before does not sound like a good example of severe memory loss. Sounds more like the guy who already made some money by writing books on Trump is now back to try and make some more and needs to remind people who he is. So fuck him too
And then you've got salon trying to shovel Variety's bait for clicks. Parasites from top to bottom.
To be fair, he must meet thousands of people in a day when he is doing events. Nobody remembers every npc, some people are just to dull, uninteresting or just fall into the background noise.
With that said, given his age it is probably not wrong in that he has severe memory issues. In other news the sky is blue...
I'm the kind of guy who show up to project mobilization to set things off and give the hardware my seal of approval. When the crews take the hardware out to the field, I travel home and monitor the operational status of the equipment from there.
This means that I meet "everyone" but I never spend much time with any of them. I am already pretty bad at remembering names, but this style of work really doesn't help - meeting them for five days, once per year. And we're talking maybe 100 people total across the entire company.
I can't imagine how one would remember thousands of names and faces after meeting them for a few minutes between rallies. To you it's the meeting of a lifetime. To Trump it's just another day. Of course he doesn't remember you.
Don't get me wrong, he's still a piece of shit, though.
some people are just to dull
You're saying some people are there just to dull things out?
That's a weird job.
Suddenly makes a lot more sense:
"It's possible I have a picture with them because I have a picture with everybody. I don’t know them. I don’t know about them. I don’t know what they do."
I hope you're being sarcastic. He's used the "I don't know them" excuse for a long, long time.
I expect we'll see Sinclair local news stations all talking about this tomorrow.
I mean I doubt even when cognitively strong Trump bothers to remember people like that. He's an asshole why would he?
I would be just as open to the idea that Trump doesn't pay attention to any detail about a person interviewing him if he isn't interested in them for some reason (say, an attractive female). But we can go all the way back to Tim Apple to show that he's not playing with a full set / deck; we don't need this guy to confirm that. Not that it'll matter to his base.
He only seems to remember people who kiss his ass or have talked shit directly to his face.
He confused Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi, so no, he's just an idiot.
