That he can stand on stage, and talk such incoherent gibberish and attract crowds, and receive applause reflects badly on us all.

Once upon a time a weird yell "disqualified" you from running for president...
What a quaint time.
If you're a Democrat, literally anything or nothing at all can disqualify you.
Would it though?
A woman at an Adlai Stevenson rally said, "Governor, every thinking person will be voting for you."
Stevenson replied, "Madam, that's not enough. I need a majority."
Eisenhower beat him in the election. Because Eisenhower might have been smart, but people voted for him because he was famous.

According to their own campaign they say they'd probably have lost anyway due to disorganization, but the media still really let him have it over a dumb yell lol
I can still hear it in my head. What a simpler time.

Yes it does. And it’s not easily fixed.
When you didn't do your report in 5th grade
Is this a real quote? I can't tell.
It is, and it is a shame that he has a chance to be elected a second time by riling up a base with auch incoherent gibberish.
I mean if some 4chan troll put something like that on a screenshot of Biden we would know it is fake. But with Trump we need confirmation to know whether it is fake or real, because he regularly babbles incoherently.
The word salad is something - but that venue is over 2hr away from Gettysburg, PA.
Like going to Augusta, GA and saying "Atlanta, oh Atlanta. Atlanta, Atlanta, Atlanta...."
Could someone explain the meme to non US netizens? Wikipedia tells me there was a battle alright. Or is it just his generally poor language?
It sounds like he wanted to say something profound about the battle of Gettysburg, but realized that he didn't know shit about it, so he just started blathering.
Which is his normal approach to giving speeches.
It's the fact that he's confused and talking in circles.
In fact, I would bet that this transcription has been cleaned up, and that he was unable to say "Gettysburg" correctly. He was probably saying something like, "Gettish-bur" because he has dementia.

This is probably the most lucid he’s sounded in months too. What a fucking joke of a human.
What a nice fella, making us all feel really good about our historical knowledge, however meager.
