Donald Trump recently visited Fort Bragg, NC, to commence the Army’s 250th anniversary festivities, but the event quickly deviated from the expected script.
In a speech that meandered through familiar territories of “fake news” accusations and other tangential rants, Trump stated:
“A lot of people said, we don’t wanna do that. I say, yeah, we do. We want to show off a little bit. You know, recently, uh, other countries celebrated the victory of World War I. France was celebrating. Really, they were all celebrating. The only one that doesn’t celebrate is the USA, and with the ones that won the war without us, you’d all be speaking German right now.”
“Maybe a little Japanese thrown in, but we won the war. And we don’t celebrate, but we’re gonna celebrate on Saturday and we’re gonna celebrate from now on. We’re gonna celebrate our greatness and our achievements.”
One might wonder about the historical accuracy of Trump’s comments, particularly the mention of “a little Japanese” in the context of World War I—considering that the U.S. did not engage Japan during that conflict. This is reminiscent of a previous incident where Trump misinformed German leaders about the implications of the Nazi defeat for their nation.
But this spectacle is not merely about the content of Trump’s speech. It also raises questions about his cognitive clarity; in addition to struggling with physical tasks like ascending steps, there are troubling allegations that he no longer recognizes his conversation partners.
