During a recent cabinet meeting, Trump exhibited disturbing signs of disengagement, particularly when questioned about Jeffrey Epstein's death and his past comments on the subject. His responses included numerous false claims, such as misrepresenting China's wind energy capabilities. He reacted angrily to inquiries about Epstein, especially given the recent announcements from the Department of Justice and FBI declaring his death a suicide and dismissing the existence of a 'client list.' These revelations contradicted assertions made by his administration, raising significant questions about prior statements.
Trump's behavior at the whole event was distressing for anyone who believes a sitting president should have a minimum level of functional cognition.
Trump unleashed his now-familiar flood of lies-such as the claim that China, the world's leader in wind power, has 'very, very few' wind turbines.
Trump started to splutter with rage when reporter Steven Nelson of the Trump-supporting New York Post brought up the Epstein case, which has been in the news since Sunday.
These findings naturally raised questions, since many in Trump's administration—including FBI director Kash Patel—had previously virulently questioned the claim that Epstein committed suicide.
