"When asked by Britains ITV about ... some perceptions that he was insane..."

I think the bar has hit the floor for sure now. To be honest, I can't remember the last time a president of the US has been asked if he was insane.

'I am a stable genius,' Donald Trump says

Reuters Staff 1/28/2018

LONDON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said he was a stable genius and that he eats good quality food.

When asked by Britain’s ITV about his health and some perceptions that he was insane and physically unfit, Trump said: “I am a stable genius.”

When asked about eating burgers and drinking Coke, Trump said: “I eat fine food, really from some of the finest chefs in the world, I eat healthy food, I also have some of that food on occasion... I think I eat actually quite well.”

He said he would consider staying in the Paris climate accord but that it would have to be a good deal for the United States.

I had some fluff in my belly button that was of more interest than a terrible politician and a sleazy former tabloid editor.

Really? In what universe is KFC and McDonald's healthy food from "some of the finest chefs in the world"? We know he doesn't like vegetables or anything remotely healthy. FFS, he just lies about EVERYTHING!
