Let’s just say that the interview won’t be addressing the speculations surrounding Donald Trump’s linguistic skills, which have always been questionable and now appear to be deteriorating. Donald made an appearance on the conspiracy-peddling Newsmax platform on Wednesday.
During a conversation with host Greg Kelly, Trump delved into a philosophical discussion about why Hillary Clinton seemingly triggered a weapon of mass destruction while “acid checking” her devices.
The interview itself was quite absurd. Kelly’s overly sycophantic question “Is it depressed at the top?” juxtaposed with Trump’s incoherent and disjointed responses truly encapsulates the atmosphere of living under an authoritarian regime where criticism of the leader is forbidden, and everyone is expected to smile regardless of the nonsensical statements emanating from his mouth.
Trump claims that he has been treated more unfairly than any other leader in history, stating, “I don’t care, Andrew Jackson or anybody else, nobody has been treated like Trump, in terms of badly. Russia Russia Russia, Ukraine Ukraine Ukraine, all was a hoax.”
While this statement might make for an interesting bumper sticker slogan, it’s a bit much to plaster on a hat. Trump’s assertion that his treatment surpasses that of presidents who were assassinated in office is a stretch, to say the least.
Despite the occasional moments of clarity, the interview takes a bizarre turn, leaving Kelly with a bewildered expression as he grapples with the surreal nature of the conversation.
Trump goes on to make outlandish claims about Hillary Clinton using acid-like substances to destroy everything within a 10-yard radius—an assertion that is both astounding and nonsensical.
His commentary on Bill Clinton is equally confusing, with references to classified documents being removed from boots—an event that never occurred. Trump’s version of events seems to be a product of a confused mind.
Donald Trump has never been known for his sincerity or clarity. His narrative has always been carefully crafted and, one might say, cunningly deceptive. However, the recent developments raise concerns about whether his current performances are a departure from his past self.
In a misleading statement to his Truth Social followers, Trump alleged that “Artificial Knowledge” was used against him in a video compilation of his blunders, claiming they were manipulated. However, an evaluation by Gizmodo confirmed that the clips were authentic.
While Trump’s supporters may view him as a strong, intelligent figure, others are beginning to question his coherence and logical reasoning abilities.
