  1. Former President Donald Trump, 78, seemed to have a brain fade as he mistakenly referred to Elon Musk as “Leon” at a rally on Saturday. “Boeing, I shouldn’t say anything there is a beautiful Boeing plane right there,” Trump told his Mosinee, Wisconsin crowd pointing to his Trump Force One. “But, ehh Boeing had a little hard time, so they are going to save—Leon is going to send them a rocket,” Trump added, referring to a plan from Musk’s SpaceX to rescue the two Boeing astronauts who are stranded aboard the International Space Station after NASA deemed their Boeing Starliner vessel unsafe to get them back down to earth. “He looks forward to it, that’s all he thinks about is things like that,” Trump concluded. The former president has floated a plan to have Musk lead a government efficiency commission within his administration if he wins the 2024 election.

  2. What’s wild is I saw my grandfather go through this same process with Alzheimer’s before he passed away. These next couple years are going to be crazy.

  3. I like imagining that Trump is actually totally with it and just laying the path for a Weinstein or Cosby pity sentencing reduction.

  4. How is the election this close? How do so many people think this guy is remotely capable to run a country let an alone in their best interest. This place is a joke.

  5. Reporter: Bad news. The brain fog is getting thicker.

    Johnny (leaping into frame): And Leon’s getting weirder!

    They’re just questions, Leon. …. It’s a test designed to provoke an emotional response…. describe in single words only the good things that come into your mind about….your mother.

  7. Silver Alert: individual may appear confused as to where and when they are. Answers to the name trump. Rambles and mixes up common names and faces. individual is a known felon and sexual predator.

    Just an innocent gaffe. Who hasn’t run for president at an advanced elderly age and forgotten the name of their biggest (public) ally?
