This time, he links the death of a murdered citizen, reactions to which are burning his country down around him, to his own self-aggrandisement about the unemployment figures.

He actually says that Mr Floyd will be 'looking down' on him, and that it's a 'great day for him ...'.

There are one or two possible holes in the President's reasoning I feel -

If Mr Floyd is looking down, he may be less inclined to be smiling about the employment figures, he might be pondering why he has been murdered, and what the President is actually going to do about the fallout from that.

Mr Floyd might also be wondering why the President thinks it's a 'great day' for him because … he is still dead!!

Of course, we should not be surprised at this latest nonsense from the President.

The simple fact, which he demonstrates time and time again is this -

President Trump cannot think on his feet - a pre-requisite for any politician at any level.

He is unable to stop what comes into his brain simultaneously coming out of his mouth, and sadly, what does come into his brain in unconnected random thoughts with no sense in them, or link between them.

You can see when he is doing this - first of all he looks right at the camera, which means (oh no!!!) - he has stopped reading the autocue, or any notes he has been given to prevent just such an occurrence as this.

Then his eyes glaze over as he launches into one of his stream-of-nonsense speeches, where he ceases to think at all, and simply says the random words that flit across his mind.

The clincher is the short pause, where even he realises that he has ceased to make any sense whatsoever, and he is simply babbling - again. But of course, he can't have silence, so his mouth starts up again with more of those unconnected meaningless words, and on he goes.

Someone in his administration should be saying "Read this - and only this - do NOT deviate from it in any way shape or form, and when you have read it, stop talking."

The chances are someone does this, but being Donald Trump, he knows better and takes no notice.

The USA is being run by a man whose brain simply does not function normally, and here is proof - again, as if we needed it.

Fake news? , that many of us saw live on tv today, ?
That enough proof for the fake news brigade?
Ladies and Gennnlmen, I give you the President of the Uuuuuunited States.

(And we think our politicians are FUp)
Mamya...I had to play it back three times because I couldn't believe what I was hearing. No wonder the woman on his right had to bow her head and mop her face. She knew what was coming.
The only people more dangerous than Trump are those who support and defend him.
^^ I don't think.
Totally agree G, anyone who shares the stage with him at press briefings are just as guilty as him , do they have no morals ?
They have morals, they probably have mortgages, health insurance and school fees to pay!
Zac. Do you believe if they did not share the platform with him they would be sacked? If you do , America has a dictator not an elected president .
I've had all three of those, Zacs but I'd still not be standing by him.
I don’t know what to say - I am speechless.
Anne, there have been many people who have been sacked because they didn’t agree, or didn’t fit in with Trump’s ‘ideology’ (I use the term very very loosely)

Gness, you have the luxury of not being in his employ.
He is a liability and an embarrassment.
If this is fake news how come I sat in front of the telly and then sat there thinking this man is so dangerous. Please he didn't say what I heard him say. Please. I listened to it again on a later broadcast and yes that is exactly what he did say. CRETIN.
I’m afraid you did hear it :-(
That's as may be, Zacs....but I have walked away from the opportunity to have an amazingly luxurious lifestyle when MrG was head hunted by one of the big oil companies in Canada because I didn't approve of the way the company was being run and how some workers were treated.....luckily MrG raised his eyes to heaven once more and came with me..... ;-)
So....as Anne says...no morals if they're standing beside Trump.
You did, LadyJ....scary isn't it?
Gness, your life stories never cease to incredulate me. I’m surprised you’re not the Pope.
