Raw Story: 'His brain is completely out of commission': Trump stuns during economics Q&A [View all]

Last edited Wed Oct 16, 2024, 10:02 AM - Edit history (1)

In a series of questions about the economy, Micklethwait desperately tried to keep the conversation on track until Trump had to explain to him, "It's called the weave." The term has become Trump's new way of weaving through dozens of different issues in an effort to answer a simple question.

"The decline is real," said Democratic strategist Adam Parkhomenko, who commented after watching Trump talk about Virginia voting when answering questions about breaking up Google as a monopoly.

Trump also fumbled when asked what he would do to reduce government spending. His answer was about the new Air Force One. He then rambled about his attempts to negotiate with Boeing over the price of the new Air Force One, which he then said that he wanted to be like the plane the Saudi leaders use.

"His brain is completely out of commission," said lawyer Geoge Conway, who is running Anti-Psychopath PAC to draw attention to such comments.

Btw I have always thought Trump has been out to lunch for years because any man who dresses
like he does, wears lifts in his shoes, wears diapers, has his hair, and make up the way he does
and then looks into the mirror and thinks, “now that is a good look” is bat shit crazy.
