Rachel Maddow Shows How Mentally Declining Trump Is Breaking The Military
Rachel Maddow connected the dots between Trump's mental decline and how he is damaging the US military.
This is something that Republicans definitely do not want to talk about. Trump has gone from erratic and unstable to declining and out of touch with reality.
The president’s supporters like to portray this as Trump keeping his adversaries guessing, but he never gives anyone any indication that he actually knows what he is doing.
Donald Trump’s behavior and poor decision-making are having a devastating impact on the United States government, which is being made obvious by the war in Iran.

Rachel Maddow talked about this reality on her MS NOW program:
While the president keeps saying, oh, don’t worry, they can’t fight back. They have no capability. They have no anti-aircraft equipment. Quote. We literally have planes flying over Tehran and other parts of their country and they can’t do a thing about it. He keeps saying these things while US planes keep going down.
It’s not at all clear that he understands why that is or that there is, or the contradiction between those two fact patterns, the one he’s asserting about Iran’s capabilities and the one Iran is demonstrating in the sky. Trump gave Iran a deadline to open the Strait of Hormuz on March 23rd, or he said he would obliterate them.
Then that deadline came and went. Uh, then the deadline became April 6th. That’s today. Uh, then over the weekend, the deadline became tomorrow. April 7th, there’s no explanation why the president, from the president, as to why these supposed deadlines keep changing. But honestly, there’s no indication from the president that he necessarily understands that it is important that he keeps constantly changing these deadlines.
I mean, does he fully understand that that’s what he is doing when he says Iran can’t shoot down our planes?
