Media isn't reporting his obvious dementia. They call the nonsense he spouts "rambling speeches."

Some other recent examples:

“We can’t have an election in the middle of a political season. We just had Super Tuesday. And we had a Tuesday after Tuesday already.”

"Gang boong. This is me. I hear bing.”

" I could tell you about aircraft carriers, where they use electric catapults. They couldn’t go to the steam, which works better for about 1/100th the price, you know? The electric catapult, you know that story? I could tell you about the elevators on a tremendous carrier, the Gerald Ford, and they decided not to use hydraulic like the John Deere tractor, they decided to use magnets, ‘we’re gonna use magnets!’ to lift up the elevators with seven planes.”

I probably shouldn't be amused at a fellow person deteriorating like this, but I can't bring myself to feel bad about it. ☺
