trmp's brain melts down on stage in incoherent, slurring rant about his "big ego" during the National Prayer Breakfast!

As you can imagine, there wasn’t much talk of faith from the alleged pedophile president during his address to the National Prayer Breakfast. Instead, he focused on the only thing he actually cares about — his own ego, and how mad he is that he lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden.

Slurring his words and dipping in and out of coherency, the president babbled about how “I said, you know, it's a really smart guy if I ever get this thing, I didn't get it. It wasn't easy. You know, they rigged the second election.

“I had to win it. I had to win it. I needed it for my own ego. I would have had a bad ego for the rest of my life. Now I really have a big ego though! Beating these — beating these lunatics was incredible.”

“What a great feeling. Winning every swing state, winning the popular vote, the first time, you know, they said I didn't win the popular vote. I did, but they said.

“So they'd always say that what I always thought [unintelligible]...WHILE Donald Trump did not win the popular vote, you know, I'm sitting up being introduced by a Democrat or somebody, and he said, ‘why Donald Trump did not win the popular vote.’ He won the presidency, here he is. I said that was terrible.”

“I said we got it and we won the popular vote by a lot. We didn't want to play any games. This has been a much different — we had a great first term.”

The president’s poor mental faculties are very obviously on display this morning. But what’s almost as scary as the demented president is the millions of Americans who will watch this and say, “this is a man of God who cares about my well-being.”

1. This isn't sustainable. My guess is that they will do a Reagan and keep him out of the public eye as this gets worse.

As is true in so many areas of public life, things now are … different. The Boston Globe reported:

President Trump attacked Republican Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky, an outspoken critic of the president, during his speech at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington on Thursday, calling him a ‘moron.’ […]

Trump then attacked Democrats in his speech saying, ‘I don’t know how a person of faith can vote for a Democrat. I really don’t.’ Later, Trump repeated his false claims that he won the popular vote in 2016 and that his 2020 loss to former president Joe Biden was ‘rigged.’

Over the course of roughly 75 minutes, the Republican turned the National Prayer Breakfast into a roast of sorts, lashing out at enemies, condemning immigrants, peddling absurd election conspiracy theories, expressing annoyance that House Speaker Mike Johnson wants to pray before meals, lying about the repeal of the Johnson Amendment (which still has not actually happened, no matter how many times Trump claims otherwise) — all while complaining about transgender people and diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

The president even took the opportunity to boast about the efficacy of the deadly military operations he’d ordered.

Trump at the National Prayer Breakfast: "We hit 'em. And we want to hit 'em right, sir, and we want to hit them from the top! East, west, north, south. Sir, they won't know what the hell! And we'll knock them out. We did it politically correct. Five years."

At another point, Trump decided it’d be a good idea to mock Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey over the Democrat’s recent emphasis on honoring the Constitution.

Trump on Minnesota: "If we didn't have to fight this horrible governor and this horrible fake mayor -- Frey. 'This is the Constitution of the United States.' People don't want to be mugged!"

,,,,,Those who assumed Trump would approach the National Prayer Breakfast with a degree of maturity or solemnity were kidding themselves: He has a void where his gravitas should be.

Every speech, interview and appearance, public or private, is rooted in the same conspiratorial and grievance-filled foundation. The president was an embarrassment to himself on Thursday, not because he tried and failed to honor the occasion and to respect his audience, but because it apparently never occurred to him to bother in the first place.
