Donald Trump suffers major malfunction during Pittsburgh speech
Even as Donald Trump’s House GOP goons were illegally occupying a secure SCIF room today in an attempt at preventing Department of Defense official Laura Cooper from testifying to the House impeachment inquiry, Donald Trump was in Pittsburgh to give a speech at an oil and gas event. It was, presumably, supposed to be about oil and gas. Or about Pittsburgh. Or, really, about anything other than what he ended up rambling about.
Donald Trump used his speech today to insist that he’s going to win New Mexico in the 2020 election (spoiler alert: he’s not going to win New Mexico). But this turned out to be among the least incoherent things he said, as he then began rambling about the border wall that’s being built in New Mexico. There is no wall being built in New Mexico, but at least New Mexico is on the border. Then things got weird.
Trump said this during his speech: “We’re building a wall on the border of New Mexico. And we’re building a wall in Colorado … and we’re building a wall in Texas. And we’re not building a wall in Kansas, but they get the benefits of the walls that we just mentioned. And Louisiana’s incredible.”
You see the problem here, right? Donald Trump appears to understand that Kansas is not a border state, but he thinks Colorado is one, even though Colorado is parallel with Kansas. His inclusion of Louisiana suggests that he was just throwing states in at random. Trump’s brain is clearly malfunctioning in real time, as the pressure of impeachment and his dying presidency continues to get to him.
