OMG: Trump humiliates himself in confused Oval Office rant - Brian Tyler Cohen



Intro:

BTC: If you ever needed a 30 second summary into just how devoid of any sense Donald Trump is when it comes to the history of our own country here you go:

DJT: I have, I have ideas as to what to do, but I haven't made a final...I like to make the final decision one second before it's
due, you know, because things change. I mean especially with war things change. With war it can go from one extreme to
the other. War is war is very bad. There was no reason for this to be a war. There was no reason for Russia, Ukraine, a lot
of wars. There was no reason for...you look right up there...I don't know. See the Declaration of Independence? And I say, uh, I wonder if you, you know the Civil War always seemed to me, maybe, that could have been solved without losing 600,000
plus people?

*Note: I inserted the punctuation into the auto-transcript of Trump speaking on video. I am uncertain if I captured the proper mix of rambling and incoherency which is typical DJT weave, but I thought I would take a shot.

I refuse to watch his insane rambling. I used to have to listen to insane rambling in my professional life but I'm retired now. I've heard more than my share of incoherence. Enough for several lifetimes.

How was your doctor's appointment?

I learned that when I went into the hospital on my birthday I had a mild case of pneumonia which is related to the heart failure. The heart muscle is still weak so they added a medication to aid with the heart contractions and I will have a follow up appointment with the cardiologist in four weeks.

Oddly enough, I already scheduled an appointment with the cardiologist at the end of August. However, I received a referral to an endocrinologist in Houston on the same day so I canceled that appointment with the cardiologist.

It's funny how the doctors are competing to get hold of me! I'm also getting a new primary care physician since my doctor is graduating from Texas A&M med school.
