Trump just beat his own record for most unhinged speech ever at the Republican retreat in West Virginia.

Just a day and a half after his State of the Union speech, he has instantly undone any of the praise he gained for his “presidential” qualities, ranting incoherently in what can only be described as “word salad.”
The Narcissist-in-Chief said Utah Senator Orrin Hatch called him a better president than even Lincoln or Washington.

Then, the man famed for his tiny hands lauded the “very big hand” of far-right congressman Steve Scalise of Louisiana, who is recovering from a recent gunshot wound.

The Presidon’t proceeded to brag that he has created “an unthinkable” amount of jobs over the past year, when in fact job growth has slowed under Trump.

He then offered up incoherent ramblings about the DACA recipients, or Dreamers, whose destinies he holds in the balance.
Trump offers a word salad on Dreamers:
"So many people call it Dreamers. It's not Dreamers — don't fall into that trap. It is just much different than Dreamers. And I said to the other night, we have Dreamers in this country. I have a lot of Dreamers here." pic.twitter.com/i16ncF91lO

He offered up other doozies . . .
Trump says Americans built the Empire State Building in just one year, then ad-libs, "Actually, to be exact, we built it in LESS THAN a year."
It was 13 months.

. . . including that he has fulfilled promises he hasn’t yet promised, calling the result “promises plus.”

This is the leader of the free world, everybody.
Perhaps rendered apoplectic by the imminent threat of Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller’s Russia and obstruction of justice investigations, Trump has deteriorated from merely unstable, unqualified and corrupt, to a doddering fool who has completely lost the plot.
For the sake of the nation, and the world, we must immediately remove him from the Oval Office.
