Holy cow - Know this is superficial - but are you seeing President Stupid's copter presser?

seeing President Stupid's helicopter presser on now? the kind where he purposely has the noisy copter going to (1) make it so people can't hear the question, and (2) makes him look important - busy guy waiting to be whisked off ? Like he couldn't tell the copter to start up AFTER the conference?? Why the news doesn't ask him that is beyond believable

His hair looks WILD and it's now WHITE !! Like SANTA-ESQUE.

*** On edit...at the end, he walks to the copter and the rotors AREN'T moving. What?? So what IS the noise?

I didn't see that. Maybe the noise is piped in like the way pro football teams pipe in crowd noise during practice. Trump is weird. I stopped trying to figure him out a long time ago.

So he can deny that he said something that he said and blame the misunderstanding on the helicopter noise. Or maybe not. He really doesn't seem to care.

is absolutely complicit in allowing him to get away with this charade. At a minimum, they should demand microphones or demand the background noise be delayed.

press briefings. It's quite a tweet, overall & worth the read. The president has lost his marbles & it's being covered up. That's speculation, of course, but it's hard to totally dismiss when you see how he behaves & speaks.
