Transcript Of Trumps Latest Interview ... delusional and simply incoherent


The Transcript Of Trump’s Latest Interview Just Leaked And It’s Truly Unhinged

By Morgan Hill nn August 1, 2017

POLITICO has obtained a copy of the President’s most recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, and it marks a new low in the president’s mental capacities and demonstrates an astounding ignorance of not only basic economics but of the policies that his own administration is putting forth.

Here’s a sampling of Trump’s most delusional and simply incoherent statements: .......................

Trying to follow him coherently is an impossible task. I understand Greek better than what ever language he is attempting to speak. Man, do I miss Obama!

I have as much difficulty tracking trump as I did them.
He has pressured speech, he has flight of ideas ( you can almost HEAR then banging inside his skull, fighting to get out.)
Very manic energy, and he either lies all the time or he thinks what he says is the absolute truth.

Either way, he is not competent to make important decisions.

It was also nice to see that Ivanka stopped by the interview to put her two cents in.

to stomach listening to and seeing him. I thought it would not be a big deal, I felt the same about bush/cheney. Reading transcripts helped out then. Now it sort of makes me feel like I never really knew how to read! Seeing it in print and being able to re-read it when the first go over makes me say "Huh? What did I just read?", does not help.

I try to laugh, but it is pitiful that this is the person holding the office right now.

and absolutely terrifying that this unhinged man is in the WH, has access to our nuclear codes and pretends he's the Leader of the Free World. The WSJ held this interview and then deliberately cropped paragraphs, publishing only a select few because the full text shows The Trumpster in full mental disarray. The man is incapable of completing a single, reasoned thought and blabs nonsense about issues and details he knows nothing about.

The editor of the Wall St. Journal should be ashamed for censoring his own work thereby keeping the public in the dark. We see Trump's erratic behavior and ridiculous political posturing. But this? In his own words, he's exposed in all his glorious unfitness, his astounding ignorance and arrogance. And madness.

Though I don't feel entirely comfortable with 3 Generals taking over the lion's share of power in the Administration, they obviously have seen this continuing meltdown up close and personal. Trump needs to be kept on a short leash. He's already done damage to the country but the damage he could do is nightmarish.

Kudos to Politico for putting this text out there. People need to be aware of Trump's deteriorating mental state.

It's getting really scary.
