This is unreadable. He’s incoherent. I don’t think he successfully stated a single fact, answered a single question, or provided a single example of any point he wanted to make. Not that it was clear what points he wanted to make—because he was incoherent.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.

The Trump administration's scare tactics ahead of the midterms have hit a usual refrain: "migrant caravan." In reality, it's about 600 people (mostly families) who are 1,000 miles from the border. Just when gas prices keep climbing, Trump world is looking for a distraction. This is their attempt.

I’ve known many other defense secretaries, starting with Cap Weinberger, who served as defense secretary under Reagan. I can say without fear of contradiction that Pete Hegseth is the stupidest and least qualified of them all. He is a danger to the entire world. He must be impeached.

This is ILLEGAL. Congress decides what gets funded, and the President is required to follow those decisions. That is NOT optional. And if you don’t believe me, take it from the Government Accountability Office, Congress’s non-partisan watchdog, who thinks it’s illegal too.

Pathological liars just can’t stop lying. Trump: “I’m the only president that donated his salary. They pay me $550,000 a year.” The presidential salary is $400,000. JFK and Hoover donated their salaries and didn’t rob the country blind.
