very special it is. Because, believe me, if Trumpy doesn't know it exists, and it does, it's a true cosmic anomaly.

This isn't a symptom of increasing dementia, IMO. It's another way that Trumpy lies. This time, he lies for self-aggrandizement.

Making it sound like it's a once-in-generation storm (aren't they all now?) gives him an excuse when his incompetent administration inevitably screws up the response.
