Maybe you caught this video that’s been making the rounds since yesterday, purportedly depicting Donald Trump as “lost & disoriented” and serving as evidence of “his degenerative neurological disease”:

Screenshot for posterity:
Yeah, just look at that. It’s obvious that he’s got neurological problems.
Can’t decide if he’s Wimpy or Pig Pen

Good one, Rex! You’re always so clever.
Whoa. Total brain freeze there.

Omg he’s lost in plain view

I’d like to take this moment to thank the electoral college for giving us this hot mess then.

This is the physical version of when he starts to slur and mispronounce a word, so he says a similar word and pretends like he meant that world all along. Also, similar to his near falls where he plays them off like he meant to do it. He's cooked.

Oh, look, something shiny!
He totally spaced out that he was supposed to board the helicopter. The next month is going to be priceless as we watch the inevitable fall of Humpty trumpty.— Egalitarian ✨ #Biden/Harris 2020 (@oregonvirginia) September 7, 2020
What the? Is there anymore of the video?
— Robert O'Mara (@realrobertomara) September 7, 2020
Funny you should ask!
Context is needed. He does seem to look to his left, as though waiting to see if whomever has appeared.

You are sick. He was waiting on Melania.

Trump was simply walking back to wait for FLOTUS here
This false tweet has over 23K retweets and the deceptively edited video has over 2 million views https://t.co/kJN0rBrrIq pic.twitter.com/QXmOlkEkTt

47,500 likes, 1 Million+ views for a lie. The longer version of this video shows he’s waiting for Melania to join him as he boards Marine One. He points out the puddle to make sure she doesn't step in it. It's also a year old. https://t.co/GLXb685GwV

Let’s go to the videotape. The full one:
Here’s the longer video. pic.twitter.com/jQQuayVDRX

Trending video of Trump walking around on the South Lawn and pointing to a puddle lacks context.
Video is from August 2019 — He walks over to meet First Lady Melania Trump – points out the puddle so that she can avoid it and they walk to Marine One together

Who needs context? All you need are likes and retweets. Those are way better than context. And way, way better than credibility and integrity.
