Has Donald Trump Finally Lost It?

"Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it."

~ Philip Bump

Bump is pointing to a 487-word post by Trump that you'll see when you click the link to Bump's post.

“President Bonkers” Hmmm. I like that. If I’m ever driven to refer to President Bonkers in a post, “President Bonkers” it is.

The Founding Fathers had it easy. King Bonkers was an ocean away…<sigh>

@wdlindsy Great self own when Idiot in Orange states (speaking of his bigly cog tests), "and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. "
Is he saying that 'cause he knows we know his MDs are a joke or does he not recognize his MDs any more?!
