WASHINGTON DC – Shortly after midnight on Saturday, President Donald Trump’s mind was fixated on the greatness of his own mind.
In the midst of a stream of fresh detritus on his social media account, the Commander in Chief pointed to the outcome of his annual physical exam conducted last week at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center just outside Washington.“Unlike other US Presidents, none of whom have ever taken an approved, high difficulty Cognitive Test, I scored a perfect 30 out of 30, considered ‘extreme intelligence’”, Trump claimed. Lest the point had been missed, he observed that “this is my fourth such test, all PERFECT or, 120 correct answers out of 120 questions asked! It is rare that anyone gets a Perfect Score, especially when achieved four times in a row,” he insisted.
But the rest of Trump’s “high-volume posting” on social media over the weekend raised alarming new questions about the mental stability of a man who has his finger on America’s nuclear button, has failed to secure any kind of peace agreement with Iran, and appears now to be in meltdown over the numerous reversals that he is facing.

The collapse of “Freedom 250” – a planned 16-day series of concerts to celebrate the country’s 250th birthday – particularly appears to have stuck in the presidential craw.
