How much more off the walls can Trump get? We don’t claim to know but todays’ rant about “neuroses, chairs, affordability” and Melania’s underwear drawer is pretty far out there. And what do those things have to do with one another? I suspect it’s like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic, it’s as well as Trump’s *mind* can function, even though in the big picture of things it’s somewhat useless. CNN:

President Donald Trump came to North Carolina on Friday to talk about the economy.

He ended up explaining how his wife organizes her lingerie drawer.

“I think she steams them,” he offered at one point, hoping to underscore the violation Melania Trump felt when, in his telling, FBI agents rummaged through the pristine undergarments — “sometimes referred to as panties” — during their 2022 search of Mar-a-Lago.

In the realm of Trump tangents, it wasn’t the wildest, or angriest, or most bizarre.

Yet as the president hopes to refocus the nation’s attention on his economic record ahead of next year’s critical midterm elections, it was another reminder that his own focus often remains somewhat adrift.

Trump did periodically discuss the economy in his 90-minute speech, which he called a “quick little stop” in Rocky Mount on the way to Mar-a-Lago for the holidays. He trumpeted a report this week that showed inflation unexpectedly cooling. He recounted an announcement he made earlier in the day on lowering some drug prices. He framed an uptick in the unemployment rate as a success since he’d fired so many government workers.

Supporters behind him held signs reading “Lower Prices” and “Bigger Paychecks.” But even the visual cues couldn’t keep the president from veering well off-piste — often to the delight of his crowd.

As he was explaining the negotiations that went into the drug pricing scheme, attendees listened politely, if quietly, as he assumed a French accent to mimic President Emmanuel Macron during their pharmaceutical negotiations.

I missed Trump’s version of Macron’s accent but I did miss not Macron’s imitation of Trump’s “powershake” where he grabs somebody’s hand and yanks them forward, in some kind of a dominance ploy. Heads of state worldwide roll their eyes at Trump’s antics and today was no exception.

  1. Steams her panties? (or, let’s be real makes some maid do it for her) Talk about TMI that I really, really would like to never have learned. On the other hand as we move into Sat. evening and I don’t have a special someone to snuggle up with for the weekend. I won’t at some point be wistful about not being able to engage in mutual wicked delights if there was actually someone willing to put up with me. This will kill any sex drive for a long time to come!

  2. More proof he’s bonkers. Not presidential. Not normal. Not sane. When will he tell us the size of Bannon’s penis and I betcha it won’t be as big as his.

  3. Given the declining you know who ‘P’OTUS is a germaphobe, it’s quite possible you know who demands an autoclave is to be used to properly sterilise the spinnakers that belong to his contractually obliged wifey. You’ve gotta treat this for the lunacy it deserves and laugh, otherwise you could crash along with his demented reality and lampooned history, too.
