Pierce: Trumps New York Times Interview Is a Portrait of a Man in Cognitive Decline

[Hekate]

69. The afternoon and evening gang at MSNBC were going over the whole transcript yesterday...

As far as I could tell, they were reading unedited and unredacted parts of that, not the finished article. It was damning as all hell.

I am glad the interviewer allowed the Mad King to simply ramble on, and did not challenge him. Any challenge at all to this demented old man and he would have ended the whole thing with a bellow for security guards to toss the offender out, and might have ordered the confiscation of his notes and recorder as well. As it was, we all get to see a man who really ought to be in the Memory Unit of the retirement home, not the Oval Office.

I'll tell you who I really want to see peppered with tough questions are the enablers. Sarah Huckabee, Kellyanne Conway, the WH staff, any GOP Senator or Rep you care to name. Imagine their faces when asked: "The president is clearly mentally incapacitated. What do you plan to do about that?" And then asked again at every presser. Just describe his observable behavior and ask about it.
