Yeah, "they're eating cats and dogs" was unhinged Trump, but the truly damning highlight from the debate was this. It reveals Trump doesn't believe his job includes being prepared for, carrying out, or even thinking through his campaign promises.

Trump had a very long list of campaign promises from 2016 that not only weren't filled, Trump believes you don't remember them and it's not important, anyway; anger about the cost of living and paranoia about immigrants is enough to win in 2024.

This moment revealed how shallow a thinker Trump truly is, and the shallow thinking he in turn demands of his supporters to continue revering such an inept, cognitively compromised leader.
