Trump's behavior is getting harder to understand

Donald Trump emerged from hiding Sunday night aboard Air Force One, gave a rambling press gaggle, and confirmed almost everything his administration has spent weeks denying. He told reporters negotiations with Iran are going "extremely well" then said "we always have to blow them up." He used the word "wars," the very word his administration refused to use because the Constitution requires Congressional approval he never sought. He called the Democratic Party "terrorists." He confirmed Cuba is next.Trump spent the weekend locked inside Mar-a-Lago, skipping CPAC to avoid facing the eight million Americans who protested the day before. He described killing three rounds of Iranian leadership with complete detachment, said the supreme leader "may" be alive, and could not identify anyone on the other side of negotiations. Representative Jim Himes told Face the Nation that Trump "flat-out" lied about negotiations because he saw a stock market crash coming.The DHS shutdown became the longest in American history at 44 days. Children are held in detention centers in conditions no human should endure. The president said Democrats "don't care about our country" while standing on a plane costing $273,063 per hour to fly him to his club, trips totaling $101 million since he returned to office.The Breakdown:Trump gave a rambling press gaggle aboard Air Force One after hiding at Mar-a-Lago all weekendHe said Iran negotiations are going "extremely well" then said "we always have to blow them up"He used the word "wars" after his administration refused to call it a war to avoid Congressional authorizationRepresentative Jim Himes said Trump "flat-out" lied about Iran negotiations to prevent a stock market crashTrump does not know whether the supreme leader of Iran is alive or deadHe compared war progress and White House ballroom construction as equivalent projectsHe held up ballroom renderings and said "I thought I'd do this now because it's easier"He called the Democratic Party "terrorists"He confirmed Cuba is his next military targetThe DHS shutdown became the longest government shutdown in American history at 44 daysTrump's weekend trips have cost taxpayers $101 million since he returned to officeOil prices are up roughly 40 percent and gas has climbed past $3.98 per gallon13 American service members killed and more than 300 wounded in the Iran conflictChildren including medically fragile children are held at the Dilley detention center in TexasEight million Americans protested in all 50 states the day beforeMore on my daily Substack at: https://heatherdelaneyreese.substack.com/
