On the campaign trail, Trump railed against Hillary's comments to the FBI where she claimed she didn't remember specifics about her server issue. Trump insisted if your memory is so bad you can't remember what you did well enough to testify to the FBI, you can't be president. He brought this up 30 plus times in the campaign.
In the Mueller report, in his written statements to the Mueller investigators, Trump says 30 plus times that he can't remember things that happened during his campaign.
According to Trump, he shouldn't be president, since his memory is so shitty.
I would agree.

I would agree. When it's convenient for him, trump has a mind like a sieve; everything empties from it the moment anything enters it. trump didn't recall his excitement over Wikileaks either.

"I know a lot of people like that …….. and not all are politicians ."But do they brag about having the greatest memory like some do? A quote from trump he made on a phone call he placed to NBC News on 11/23/2015: "I have the world’s greatest memory. It’s one thing everyone agrees on." Amid Latest Controversy, Trump Claims ‘World’s Greatest Memory’Sounds like his memory is deteriorating, rapidly, since that call three plus years ago if he stated more than thirty times he couldn't remember events in 'his' written responses to questions posed by the Mueller team. Time to really consider the 25th Amendment.

Donald Trump claims to have a world-class memory, but it certainly wasn't on display during his deposition for a lawsuit over Trump University. "I don't remember," Trump told lawyers 35 times during his December testimony, which was released on Wednesday.
His inability to recall covered a wide range of subjects — including whether he had told NBC News' Katy Tur just a month earlier that he had the "world's Greatest memory." www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/trump-u-lawsuit-deposition-trump-can-t-remember-world-s-n597986

Worse is that he apparently cannot remember things when the questions were written down for him and he could answer them at his leisure when he could check his records and ask his staff for their recollections. Almost makes you think that he just didn't want to answer under oath things that would make him look bad and was only using the "I can't recall" as a shield. But no, he wouldn't do that. He's the president! trump's lawyers didn't want him to answer the Mueller's team's questions in person and under oath because they knew he would perjure himself. The guy just can't get out of his own way.

Oh, I know. They actually used that as a reason to tell the investigators that he could (would) not sit for questions. They knew he would lie, and told investigators that he would lie.

Trump was taunting Clinton because she claimed she couldn't remember when interviewed by the FBI. He said anyone who claimed they couldn't remember under oath shouldn't be president.
Then he insists he could remember when he answered questions for the FBI. So he's hiding shit, just like he implied Clinton was hiding shit.
The 2020 election commercials are writing themselves.

More than 30 times.... Imagine how many more there would have been if Mueller's team had been allowed to ask about obstruction. Trump's attorneys wouldn't even allow the questions because they knew how bad it would be.
WORST PRESIDENT IN HISTORY AND POSSIBLY WORST PERSON EVER ELECTED TO ANY MAJOR OFFICE.

And maybe his smiting is illegal. Go trump-smite the people who cooperated with the Mueller investigation.

In the three-tweet thread, which spanned more than nine hours as Trump played golf with conservative commentator and radio host Rush Limbaugh in Mar-A-Lago before completing his thoughts, Trump complained that Mueller's investigation cost $30 million and was built on a basis of "bull****" reports. He said it's time to turn the tables and signaled that officials should investigate the elements that triggered the investigation.
Oh, he means the oranges of the investigation? Dumbass.

Oh, he means the oranges of the investigation? Dumbass. Since republicans controlled the house the first two years of his presidency, couldn't they have been investigating the elements that triggered the investigation?

Since republicans controlled the house the first two years of his presidency, couldn't they have been investigating the elements that triggered the investigation? They could have and they should have, but most of the GOP is cowed by Trump's populist support and his vindictive attacks against anyone who isn't 100% loyal. So they ignored all the warning signs given off by this astonishingly unfit president.
Not every republican, of course. Some have the balls to speak truth to corruption and craziness, but not enough.

This is probably contagious and dt, who must have caught this memory loss from Sessions, is a closet anti-vaxer!
