Stable genius Donald Trump told the court he was busy being President in mid-2021 – 13 favourite reactions
In scenes that surprised nobody, Donald Trump set himself firmly on the last nerve of the judge trying his civil fraud case in New York, describing the case as a disgrace and election interference.
Judge Engoron to Trump's attorney: "I beseech you to control him if you can. If you can't, I will. I will I excuse him and draw every negative inference that I can."

Even with such a low bar, one moment really had people shaking their heads, as Trump demonstrated his stable genius once more, when asked about a financial document from mid-2021 – months after the January inauguration of Joe Biden.
BREAKING NEWS: Donald just testified he was president in 2021.
When a prosecutor asked him if he prepared the 2021 financial statement himself, Donald responded:
“I was so busy in the White House, focusing on Russia and China and keeping our country safe.”

It must be hard for him to keep track of which years he was actually President and when he was just pretending.

LMFAO, trump tried to say that he was busy, focused on “China, Russia keeping our country safe.”
Had to be reminded he wasn't President in 2021.

I can see why Donald Trump got confused and thought he was President in 2021. He was doing the same type of work he did while in the White House….#TrumpTrial Judge Engoron

And you can bet Trump thought he "HAD THEM" too.
What an embarrassment to us all.

Yesterday a poll suggested most Americans are okay with this man getting back into the White House. It also suggested more people think this man is mentally fit for office than Biden is. M

President Trump simply thought he was president in 2021 because he forgot to set his clock back a year. It’s a mistake all of us make.

Cue the reporting about how Trump, a 77 year old conspiracist who is delusional about basic aspects of reality, is too cognitively impaired to be president. Right? Right? pic.twitter.com/3Gdp2tgOBc

Donald Trump is not fit for office.
He is mentally decrepit, and morally bankrupt.
A grifter.
A con.
A clear and present danger. https://t.co/s5DKieKOi3— Brian J. Karem (@BrianKarem) November 6, 2023

So now someone needs to ask his MAGA minions at the next rally if he perjured himself when he said he was not president in 2021…. https://t.co/zTLiyvXT2j

He probably *was* busy with Russia and China in 2021 –
