In a revealing interview with TIME magazine on April 22, Donald Trump opened up about his first 100 days back in the White House. The conversation took an unexpected turn when Trump received a phone call from India’s leader about a terrorist attack, asking the journalists to stay as he handled the urgent matter. This moment, full of drama, set the stage for a deeper look into his presidency.
Trump said he was not taking too much power. He believes he is using the presidency the way it was meant to be used. But some people think he is trying to take power away from courts, Congress, and other groups. Trump disagreed. He said he is just doing what he promised during his campaign, like fixing trade and removing dangerous immigrants.
The TIME magazine says that Trump is trying to do a lot quickly. He has made changes in the Oval Office, like decorations, and even keeps Trump hats, mugs, and sneakers in a side room. He’s using his office in a big, bold way, and some people are worried about that.
The TIME interview also talked about the economy. Trump said prices for groceries and energy have gone down. But the interviewers told him that inflation is still high and that the U.S. economy might be shrinking. Trump said he believes the economy will grow very soon.
Many people online have shared their thoughts on Trump’s strange comments. Some Twitter users are even saying that his words show signs of dementia. One person joked that Trump sounded like a three-year-old, while others called him a “moron” for making such a confusing statement. Many are also embarrassed by how Trump can’t seem to finish a sentence without getting lost or mixing things up. It’s clear that the internet is not impressed with his behavior, and the reactions are pouring in. Let’s take a look at some of the tweets that capture how people feel about what Trump said.
Trump conducted a 100 Days interview with TIME and it is undoubtedly the most unintelligible interview ever given by a President.

I wouldn’t call it must read. I think it’s more appropriate to say that it’s hard to read…

This is like talking with my 4-yr-old granddaughter when telling me about her day at preschool imperceptibly morphs from reality to amazing exploits with the friend who, it turns out, is strictly imaginary. Trump is running the world economy like an imaginary playground.

Hard to even sane wash this. This quote is straight communism, btw.
“I meet with the companies, and then I set a fair price, what I consider to be a fair price, and they can pay it, or they don’t have to pay it. They don’t have to do business with the United States”

Sounds just like my eight year old son. How far did you hit the ball? Oh easily 200 feet. I mean it was a home run. It’s still up in the air.

He is either delusional, demented or a moron and perhaps all three. God help us.

If you read it in a three-year-old’s voice, it makes perfect sense. 🤪

This interview marked Trump’s 46th appearance on the cover of TIME magazine, a record nearly as frequent as that of Ronald Reagan. As his second term continues, Trump’s actions and words will undoubtedly remain a topic of debate and scrutiny, with many questioning his leadership and the impact of his decisions on the country.
