Especially the scene when Humphrey Bogart went nuts when he was cross-examined by one of the prosecutors.? He simply had a psychic break..

Man... Trump played that perfectly today at the White House News Conference..

And I also feel that that Trump is so out of it, that he didn't realize that he actually was given a question which was so simple and non-partisan that Trump could of used the question to his advantage..

works on TeeVee, not in a real problem.

In all fairness, this would be a fairly difficult problem for Obama too.

4. What set him off was the factual numbers of US deaths and

persons infected with Covid-19. He freaking lost it and didn't even process the soft ball he was offered.
It was breath-taking to wath and then I remembered he was prepared to leave Americans at sea rather than have the numbers increase.
