Is This Show for Real? Ep #2

http://www.cnn.com/2018/01/07/politics/cia-mike-pompeo-donald-trump/index.html

At the above link, the CIA Director defends the mental health of the President of the United States.

title of article, "CIA director defends Trump's mental abilities"

hit the link, and you can see for yourself. This is not made up. How can one make this up? Evidently, this was said today, Sunday January 7, 2018. Now I do not remember the CIA ever defending the "mental abilities" of the sitting President of the United States. Not even for Junior Bush. Never!!

But this happened today, according to the article. What universe are we in? Is this an episode of the Twilight Zone? I am eagerly awaiting your responses ..

Mike Pompeo is not qualified to head the CIA. He's just making sure everybody knows that, and that there's nothing we can do about it.
