Questions about Donald Trump's mental health, and his sanity in general, have been growing louder over the last few days after a series of truly unhinged and racist posts on social media. The President has been reposting AI generated videos of himself and his enemies, seemingly unable to distinguish between reality and fiction, causing Americans to call upon the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment. 

A very confused and emotional Eric Trump appeared on Newsmax this week to launch a new grievance against the former Biden Administration by claiming that they tried to get his father and stepmother to divorce. As evidence of this alleged attack on Trump's marriage, Eric claimed that the FBI's search of Mar-a-Lago was only done to try to dissolve that marriage. Eric seems to forget that his father has cheated on every wife he's ever had, and even buried Eric's mother at a golf course to get a tax write off - not exactly a loving husband that has successful marriages. 

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth held his little pep rally for the military on Tuesday morning, and it was about as pathetic as you would imagine. But on top of being pathetic, it was also insanely racist and misogynistic, with Hegseth saying that diversity is NOT a strength, and then going into a transphobic tirade about gender identities and how men are just better, in his opinion. The event cost millions of dollars was an even bigger waste of time than we thought it would be.

Donald Trump's Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins frantically texted Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent last week, saying that she's worried that Trump was outsmarted by China in his own trade war. We know that this happened because a photographer was able to snap a picture of the text message to Bessent as he was sitting at the United Nations last week. And Rollins has every reason to believe Trump was outsmarted, because he absolutely was.
