Just in case you haven't already seen it, here's an important message from our president:

Look, having nuclearmy uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smartyou know, if you're a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the worldit's true!but when you're a conservative Republican they tryoh, do they do a numberthat's why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortuneyou know I have to give my, like, credentials all the time, because we're a little disadvantagedbut you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers meit would have been so easy, and it's not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was rightwho would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisonersnow it used to be three, now it's fourbut when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger, fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven't figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so you know, it's gonna take them about another 150 yearsbut the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

This was
during a campaign stop in South Carolina and we can assume that Trump was a bit tired, maybe exhausted, from the campaign. But since then he's clearly experienced a steady decline, and the overseas trip is likely to be taxing him even more than the campaign. One can only wonder what the folks overseas are hearing and how much worse it'll get before it's time for Trump to come home.
