Senile Donald Trump claims to have the support of long deceased Joan Rivers

As tends to happen with dementia patients, Donald Trump is now rewriting history in his mind, in a way that doesn’t correspond to anything in reality. He keeps confusing people for each other, and he often combines two or more people into the same person. He also has no sense of when anything happened, or what the current year or decade is.

Trump reminded us of this when he announced today that he has the support of Joan Rivers. The trouble: she’s been dead for several years – just like Trump’s brain. In reality Joan Rivers died in 2014, which means she couldn’t possibly have taken a position on Trump’s run as a political candidate, which wasn’t even a thing until 2015.

Donald Trump has always lied and made things up. But now he’s making things up in such mentally incompetent fashion, he’s reduced to claiming that dead people support him. This is just embarrassing for Trump – and it’ll only get worse.
