Will someone in the press pool please raise their hand and ask “wtf is wrong with your brain?” Meanwhile, after he’s bored and done with his tariff toddler tantrum, he’ll slip into the White House bathtub with his toy boats and play “let’s blowup Iran”. That is until tomorrow morning when he sees the new cost breakdown for the Trumpstein Ballroom with the increased structural steel costs because almost all wide flange shapes (except the smallest) come from foreign steel mills subject to his new steel tariffs of 25 percent.

I'd love to see someone do that.

Someone needs to intervene. Iran is not Venezuela. Very dangerous situation there.

To be fair, even a potato is intellectually superior to that walking dunce cap. Carney is in another league altogether. Trump lacks any form of intellect.

Also, Doug Ford is the Ontario Premier who pissed him off, so why did he feel the need to "punish" all of Canada?

As an aside, tariffs don't punish us, they punish the USA as most financially literate people know.

He STILL has no idea how tariffs ruin his own economy. Either he's stupid or he's very, very stupid.

Left to his own devices, he's going to completely collapse the US economy.

“Again and again and again. I couldn’t get her off the phone..." Translation: he didn't shut up or take a breath while he talked her ear off sharing his grievances. She probably put the phone on speaker and went about her business because, unlike the incompetent, incontinent American lay-about, she has real work to do.

"...I will not call you fake news, okay, as the cameras are roaring.” In what universe do cameras "roar"?

"Much like his presidency, the speech was confused, unsettling, and deeply chaotic." Yeah, Biden made a hell of a lot more sense. And, he was sane about it.

Thanks for your work, Charles.

Dangerous to try to get into his head. Same reason he punished all of Switzerland for something the phantom prime minister said (Switzerland doesn't have a PM).

I never figured out who he was talking about. One media outlet posited Swiss President Karin Keller-Sutter, but she's no longer president. Could have been someone he saw on TV and he imagined the conversation.

He's crazy.

Yes, he’s crazy. He punished another country because a different country’s Nobel Committee didn’t give him a Nobel Peace Prize so, like any abusive husband, he said that he will teach everyone a lesson they won’t soon forget and he won’t pursue peace any more.

Maybe I have the details incorrect but, in my defence, it’s hard to keep up with his manic raving.

Having had a father who died of Alzheimer’s, I recognize the severe symptoms of dementia in the felon. He is deteriorating rapidly, and I doubt that he will be with us much longer. JD is a little smarter, but since he has all the charisma of a cardboard box, he probably won’t get very far before he’s kicked out. His awkwardness will only increase as he gets more pressure from both Congress and the citizenry. God help us.

Yep, I have been around it enough to recognize it, too. I felt like he was already fading during 2the 2016 election, but it seems like the progression has rapidly accelerated during the last year, although he seemed pretty out there during the campaign, too, which was another reason I was so shocked so many people voted for him over the obviously qualified candidate.

I read a piece by a prominent psychologist who specializes in dementia type illnesses, and he said the time from diagnosis of fronto temporal dementia to death averages 3 to 4 years. Since he was deteriorating during the Biden administration, he probably doesn’t have too much longer.
