ignorant to our allies (which he's already been doing constantly). And then all of a sudden, we'll find ourselves in a war or altercation w/ someone when no reason to do so in reality exists.

When will he ever say anything truly presidential? When?

and the WH press corps should be all over this like a terrier, no letting go. Attack it from all angles, drill down on his either ignorance or dotage without restraint or pause.

Ask a hundred different questions in sequence about whether or not Trump knows X, does he understand Y, does he even realize Z, has anyone told him Q, why doesn't he know A, why does he act like he doesn't know B, why does he behave as if he doesn't understand C, etc, etc.

and idiots with a mental capacity of less than a 3 year old.

Imbeciles were in the 3-7 range.

Times have changed and the terms are now considered insulting.

However...

The Trump addendum - all terms apply fairly and honestly.

I think all of his behavior this week is a response to the 'pussy whipping' which took place on Tuesday.

The Crimson Clown makes W. Bush look cultured and intellectual. Terrifying. Shameful. Devastated for what's becoming of our country. I don't think it's being talked about enough what damage is being done to our reputation under the current rogue outlaw administration. Sad.

Or Arizona and New Mexico?

Or Alabama and Mississippi?

Balkans, Baltics, all the same.

At least he didn't claim the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

Yet.

I've driven a bunch of the eastern U.S., and have never encountered any state named Delaware. I think it's a fiction. Or maybe like Brigadoon, it shows up once in a while, usually when I'm not there.

Louisiana was one of my foreign postings in the Army. Based on the heat and the bugs, I'd say it's somewhere around the equator.
