Jake Tapper Aghast at Trump's Incoherent' and Unsettling' Press Conference: Frankly Bizarre'

"The president repeated wild 2020 election conspiracy theories, raged at former CNN host Don Lemon, baselessly claimed that a witness to a fatal ICE shooting this month was a paid agitator, alleged that pirating ships, is the only thing Somalis are good at, said people in Washington, D.C. can act like a real lover after he deployed the National Guard there, dunked on former Special Counsel Jack Smith, and declared that God is very proud of the president's first year back in office."

"President Trump today, marking one full year in office with a marathon rambling, at times incoherent, possibly unsettling White House news briefing, clocking in at about 15 minutes shy of two hours, Tapper said to kick off Tuesday's installment of The Lead. For any supporters of his looking for reassurance that the Trump doing wild 1 a.m. social media post is not the same Trump in the White House, well, they probably were not reassured."

"Tapper went on to air snippets of the press conference, in which Trump claimed he won the state of Minnesota all three times, when in reality, no Republican has won the state since 1972. In another moment, Trump was asked, How far are you willing to go to acquire Greenland? You'll find out, the president replied. Tapper went on to say that the presser contained plenty of frankly bizarre, rambling moments. Watch above via CNN."

President Trump held a White House briefing lasting more than 90 minutes to mark the first year of his second term. He repeated 2020 election conspiracy theories and attacked former CNN host Don Lemon. He baselessly claimed a witness to a fatal ICE shooting was a paid agitator and alleged that pirating ships is the only thing Somalis are good at. He said people in Washington, D.C. could act like a real lover after a National Guard deployment, criticized Special Counsel Jack Smith, and declared that God was proud of his return to office. He also falsely claimed he won Minnesota three times despite no Republican winning since 1972.
