Trump says the GOP growth is plunging by more than 50%.
I'm guessing he meant GDP, was the error Freudian?
I asked the living descendants of Freud, but they said: 'No, it's just his dementia.'

Trump is doing that thing where he thinks he's explaining complex stuff to his horde of nincompoops, but he's not saying much of anything, and what he IS saying is barely decipherable because he doesn't punctuate his speech, and meanwhile - the accordion is playing a symphony.

On this day in history:

A former president of the United States was held to be in Criminal Contempt for 'willful disobedience of a court's lawful mandate' by attacking witnesses and jurors in a criminal proceeding.
