It was sarcasm. Typical Trump sarcasm.

3. And that windmills can give you cancer …

Again, he was being sarcastic.

I’d say that person is mentally unwell. I welcome your defenses of any/all of this."
There's nothing to defend. If this actually worries you, perhaps you're the one who is mentally unwell. Try watching an entire rally rather than a severely and selectively edited one. It might give you a clue as to how he says a lot of stuff, often with humor or sarcasm, and with occasional misspeaks.

This little worry you have is over a typical little piece of fake news. Relax. We are not in danger of being destroyed by Trumpian satire and stream of conscious misspoken words.

He's obviously under a lot of stress, the Mueller report will likely be quite interesting.

Senator Grassley was pretty pissed about the windmill misinformation.

I suppose the recent Healthcare debacle was just a misspeak also.

It's just Trump being Trump..............

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Will it be "quite interesting" if it basically corroborates the AG summary?

Senator Grassley was pretty pissed about the windmill misinformation.

So you support everything Grassley says?

I suppose the recent Healthcare debacle was just a misspeak also.

The ACA is a debacle.

It's just Trump being Trump..............
You can't get over that . .. . . . . . . .

Leaking indicates that it won't

What does what I support have to do with Grassley being mad?

Most Americans disagree

Sooner or later the truth will emerge, much like his taxes.
Every President and Vice President is audited every year, so Don the Cons claim of releasing his after he's done being audited is typical gaslighting

Leaking has already indicated a lot of uninteresting things.

Senator Grassley was pretty pissed about the windmill misinformation.

So you support everything Grassley says?

Exactly.

I suppose the recent Healthcare debacle was just a misspeak also.

The ACA is a debacle.

Most Americans disagree

What does what most Americans disagree with have to do with my opinion? Do you always agree with most Americans? What does what most Americans disagree with have to do with what you support?

Sooner or later we will all die.

No regrets or frets or despair. Just a fact. One that I find much more interesting than what you think the Mueller report will be.
