"Anyone who starts listing Joe Biden’s verbal slips had better be ready to listen to a LONG list of Donald Trump’s gaffes. For example: Yo-sem-ite National Park and Thighland. Trump also said, “You know, we have to protect Thomas Edison, and we have to protect all of these people that came up with originally the light bulb, and the wheel and all of these things. And he’s one of our very smart people, and we want to cherish those people.” How do we make sense of that? Does he think Edison is still alive? Does he know who invented the wheel? Who has the patent on it?
A number of psychologists have expressed concern about the deterioration of Trump’s mental faculties. His own niece, a psychologist, has said he is “unfit” to be president, as Lindsey Graham did in 2016. Some psychologists have examined his interviews from a decade or more ago and have noted how he now struggles for words and often leaves sentences unfinished. You could put together a video of his gaffes, misstatements, and outright lies and binge-watch for hours." The Independent

When Trump stared at the solar eclipse. Way back in August 2017, Americans across the country stopped in their tracks to view the rare total solar eclipse. In the days before the celestial event, ophthalmologists turned to every possible news outlet to share this urgent warning: do not stare at the sun without protective eyewear. But those dozens of warnings did not stop one man, our commander-in-chief, from doing just that.
When Trump came up with “covfefe”. The Trump era has been marked by the introduction of a number of new words and phrases, such as “fake news”, “alternative facts”, “bigly” or, as he argued, “big league”. But arguably the most nonsensical of all is “covfefe”, the made-up word that Trump included in a 2017 tweet complaining about news coverage of his administration. “Despite the negative press covfefe,” Trump wrote in the incomplete tweet. The president quickly deleted the tweet, but the word had already spawned thousands of Twitter jokes.
When Trump asked a seven-year-old girl whether she “still” believed in Santa Claus. When Collman Lloyd contacted the North American Aerospace Defense Command to track Santa’s whereabouts in 2018, the young girl probably didn’t expect to speak to the president – or to be quizzed on her beliefs.
When Trump wanted to buy Greenland. After the president confirmed last year that he was toying with the idea of trying to purchase Greenland, the internet jumped to assist him, envisioning a Trump Tower on the island and suggesting a potential price point for the transaction. But some people, namely residents of Greenland, did not find the outlandish suggestion to be quite as funny, so Greenland’s leadership issued a statement making it clear that the island, a semi-autonomous Danish territory, was “not for sale”.

"Social media was abuzz about a 25 second video of President Donald Trump descending a ramp after he gave a speech at the West Point Commencement. He didn’t exactly go down the ramp Gangnam style. Instead, he walked down the ramp fairly carefully. That led to lots of speculation about Trump’s health on social media, because that’s what the Twittersphere, the Facebook-o-sphere, and other social media spheres do.
President Trump is flirting with his own version of Water-gate -- again. For the second time in a few months, Trump struggled to lift a glass of water during his contentious interview with Lesley Stahl.
Trump found himself at the center of another umbrella-related snafu on Saturday, as he boarded Air Force One at Andrews Air Force Base in D.C. In videos documenting the moment, Trump, 72, can be seen holding the device over his head while making his way up the stairs to the aircraft. However, as he proceeded to enter the plane, he lowered the still-opened umbrella — which was wider than the aircraft door — to the ground. After he appeared to drag it along the ground for a few moments, instead of closing the umbrella, he simply released the handle, leaving it to wobble on the ground." People
