Stephen Colbert pointed out that Trump can’t get through a press conference without his broken brain showing to the world.
Colbert said: “After the ruling, Trump spoke to the press at what appears to be some sort of flag depot. And, well, he felt a little confused.”
Trump: “You can’t have an election in the middle of a political season.”
Colbert replied: “No. No, no, it’s really true. Listen, folks, we can’t have an election in a political season! We also can’t celebrate Christmas in the middle of the holidays. Come on. When I return to the White House, no car sales will be allowed during the Toyotaathon!” It’s too sacred. Immediately afterward, he shared this pearl of wisdom.”

Trump: “We just had a Super Tuesday and we already had Tuesday after Tuesday.”
Stephen: “And we all know you can’t have more than two Tuesdays. Four days.”
Colbert continued: “A reporter from this small group here asked Trump about the potential political cost of losing the hush trial.”
Question: “Would you be concerned that a conviction, if you were convicted in that trial, could cost you the election, given what the polls told voters -“
Trump: “Well, it might even make me more popular.”
Stephen Colbert, “So… The guiltier he is, the more the crowd loves him. It’s never a great sign when the responses to your press conference could easily be addressed by The Joker.

In essence, Trump’s brain is no longer there. He was shot. The man can no longer get through a public appearance without some sort of confusion, spluttering or mumbling something no one can understand. Trump thinks he’s still his own best PR man, when in reality, every time he speaks, he explains why he shouldn’t be brought back to the White House.
Trump’s brain is broken, and when he has to rise to the occasion, his mind cannot, which should disqualify him from being president again.
