Donald Trump couldn’t remember the word for ‘video’ and his attempt to think of something else only made it worse
Never let it be said that Donald Trump didn’t totally, absolutely, 100% ace those cognitive tests.
Except they obviously didn’t include the word ‘video’ in them because the American president just couldn’t remember it. And his attempt to think of something else – in this rambling discourse about his stupid reflecting pool – only made it worse.

It’s like a picture but it moves! You remember!
And these people surely said it best.

THE MAN WHO DISCOVERED A "B" AT THE END OF DUMB HAS MADE ANOTHER STUNNING DISCOVERY. MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THIS BUT THE THING THAT SHOWS TAPES INSTEAD OF PHOTOGRAPHS IS CALLED… A MOVING CAMERA. HE'S DONE IT AGAIN! https://t.co/VpwTbAltEV

Dementia prevents Donald Trump from coming up with the word,… "video."
Instead he struggles,… and blurts out,… "photographs or tapes — like moving cameras, right?" https://t.co/j3io5JoEAt

Moving cameras are used to make motion pictures.
And then one day came talkies. https://t.co/qoXS94XIOu
