Swalwell: Trump Is a ‘Broken Man’

September 11, 2025 Buck Banks

“Joe Biden looks like an Olympic athlete compared to the illnesses that he’s hiding. Donald Trump is a broken man who has broken all of his promises, and we’re all starting to pay for it; and we’re going to be a broken country pretty soon.”

— Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), on CNN.

— Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D), quoted by The Guardian, responding to President Trump’s insults about his fitness.

Donald Trump’s concern with the afterlife is becoming an obsession.
Besides his “cankles,” there are many signs of declining cognition.
At his age, it’s normal to contemplate eternity,
And given his litany of sins, Trump has reason to worry:
There’s not a snowball’s chance in hell of him getting into heaven.

Trump’s Infantile Invective

“I would say also that his personal attacks on me are just evidence of a guy who’s still living in fifth grade. He’s the kind of bully that throws invectives at people – because he knows that what he’s saying is actually commentary on himself.”
