As so often tends to be the case lately, Donald Trump’s tweets have been getting more frantic and stupid as the day has gone on. Yesterday he started off by calling for Adam Schiff’s arrest and he ended by tweeting a doctored Nickelback video (which Nickelback has since forced him to take down). Today Trump began the day by attacking teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg, and incredibly, he’s found a way to go even further downhill from there.

Donald Trump stood on the White House South Lawn today and said one of the stupidest things that any president has ever said. He threatened vague consequences against China if it doesn’t do what he wants, and then less than a minute later, he urged China to smear Joe Biden. Trump also encouraged Ukraine to smear Biden, thus confessing to his whistleblower scandal. So Trump has been having a pretty stupid day. Now he’s made it even stupider.

Just now Donald Trump tweeted “ELECTION INTERFERENCE!” That’s it. That’s the entire tweet. He’s spent the past week trying to fend off accusations of election interference. Then today he tried to commit election interference in public. So his strategy has shifted. But we’re still not sure if this tweet is meant to be a confession letter on his part, or he’s accusing someone else of “election interference.” He didn’t bother to specify.

Among the thousands of replies posted to Donald Trump’s tweet thus far, there’s no clear consensus on what Trump is even trying to say. Lots of people think he’s finally, fully snapped and he’s now confessing his sins. Others think he’s just too high on cheeto dust to understand what he’s talking about anymore. Either way, there’s no way this guy is going to survive this. He no longer appears to even know where he’s at.
