I'm really not seeing it on TAM intentionally trying to derail the thread.  What he tried to do was demonstrate the tactic being used by the Trumpettes of taking a rumor and repeating it enough until it becomes truth, and I think he whooshed a lot of posters while doing it.  It's easy to just blurt out, "I think Hillary has brain damage, because I saw her stumble in heels," or "there must be something wrong with her since she stammered that one time during a 1 hour speech."  And then, you hope something sticks. 

 

Donald forgets he said something all the time, which is why he's constantly doing damage control.  He's actually not a great liar, because he doesn't have the memory for it.  Nevertheless, it doesn't stop him from lying all the time.  It's not because he has Alzheimers, it's because he's a jerk - but you could make the argument, circulate it, and hope it sticks.

 

TAM has been poking holes in JWs argument using that satire, and I think he's done a fair job of it.  You think he's derailing, but I think he's stayed very much on topic.  And yes, I have found the whole thing mildly amusing.
