Trump Sparks Concern After Repeatedly Confusing Alaska With Russia Ahead Of Putin Meeting

One day we will wake to his obituary :-)
President Donald Trump turned heads on Monday after he repeatedly claimed he's going to "Russia" on Friday—very openly confusing the country with the state of Alaska, the actual location where he plans to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin for a highly anticipated summit.

Trump made the mix-up during a press conference about crime in Washington, D.C., where he has already moved to federalize the police and deploy the National Guard, citing inflated crime statistics that compared D.C. to Baghdad and Brasilia.


At one point, he complained:

“This is a tragic emergency, and it’s embarrassing for me to be up here. You know, I’m going to see Putin. I’m going to Russia on Friday."
"I don’t like being up here, talking about how unsafe and how dirty and disgusting this once-beautiful capital [is].”
You can hear what he said in the video below.


At another, he said:


"It's a big thing. We're going to Russia. It's going to be a big deal."

Trump's words sparked concern—prompting many to point out that his regular verbal gaffes raise questions about his fitness for office.

 
Yes but he said it twice during the same presser.
M'eh... still one instance. This is from the people who think that the guy wandering into the forest was "sharp as a tack" and "running circles around staff"... Yeah. I still am thrilled with the function of the brain that replaced him, which is a sign of how bad Biden really was, not a sign of how much I like the guy who wanted to "suspend the constitution".
