Senile Donald Trump no longer appears to know who Letitia James is
Donald Trump now thinks that Joe Biden is Barack Obama and that Nikki Haley is Nancy Pelosi. He also needs to read the names of his own kids off a notecard. So as his dementia symptoms continue to get worse, it was just a matter of time before he lost track of who’s prosecuting him.
To that end, when Trump tried to give a small scale speech about his criminal cases, he ended up going on a completely incoherent bender instead. While trying and failing to remember one of his favorite conspiracy theories, he appeared to say that a “man” named “Letitia Jones” is criminally prosecuting him:

In reality her name is Letitia James not Letitia Jones, she’s a woman not a man, and she’s not criminally prosecuting him, Alvin Bragg is. So Trump got everything wrong (although he did end up correcting James’ gender while hurling an apparent racial slur at her).
What’s more, during this latest attempt at a speech, Trump looks stunningly feeble. Trump’s handlers pulled him off the campaign trail because he was falling to pieces under the weight of dementia. But now that he’s had all this time to rest up, this is the best condition they can get him in? He sounds like he died six months ago and nobody’s told him yet. It’ll only get worse as the pressure from his criminal trials mounts.
