President Donald Trump delivered a disjointed Fox Business interview with Maria Bartiromo, during which he mischaracterized Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's timeline, claiming she "decided she would live forever and two minutes after the election she went out."
During the interview, Trump shrugged off Chinese aggression, touted Republican midterm prospects, predicted the Iran war was nearly ending, and lamented not acquiring Greenland.
Social media critics highlighted apparent memory lapses and confused statements.
Harper's editor Scott Horton characterized the interview as "grandpa moments," while others questioned how long Republicans could ignore Trump's condition.
