Donald Trump Was 'Meandering and Confusing,' Raising 'Cognitive Questions,' Says Interviewer

A new book is raising cognitive questions regarding former president and convicted felon Donald Trump, who recently challenged political rival President Joe Biden to a cognitive test, only to get the name of his doctor wrong in the very next sentence and instead raising cognitive questions regarding himself.

That new book is titled "Apprentice in Wonderland" and it tackles the former president's reality TV background. However, it also takes a look at his mental acuity as the book describes him as "meandering and confusing" and exhibiting "some cognitive questions" during interviews.

Variety Co-Editor in Chief Ramin Setoodeh has interviewed former President Donald Trump six times since May 2021 and said during a CNN interview that the disgraced New York businessman was "meandering" and "could not keep a straight thought."

"That report you just talked about-about 'meandering' and 'confusing'-is right," Setoodeh told host CNN host Kaitlan Collins. "He goes from one story to the next. He struggles with the chronology of events. He seems very upset that he wasn't respected by certain celebrities in the White House. And then he'd go to a story about The Apprentice."

"So as you know, Kaitlan, it's very challenging to interview Donald Trump and to go toe-to-toe with him," added Setoodeh and stating, "but there were some cognitive questions about where he was and what he was thinking, and he would-from time to time-become confused."

"He confidently told me and declared that Joan Rivers voted for him when he ran for president," the Variety editor added and noted that Trump ran for president in 2016 while Joan Rivers died in 2014.

"On some days, I have the feeling he has no idea whom he is even talking to; at our second meeting, he tells me he couldn't remember sitting down with me, even though it was only a few months earlier," he revealed. "From there, then we did more interviews so that we could cover more ground, but it was a little bit like Groundhog Day."

Donald Trump Tells Wisconsin Followers 'I Love Milwaukee' After Calling City 'Horrible'

Meanwhile, Donald Trump was in Wisconsin for his first appearance since he was caught calling Milwaukee, the state's largest city, "horrible." However, this time, he told his Wisconsin followers that he actually loves the city.

"I love Milwaukee," he said during a rally in Racine. The former president and his followers have been on the defensive as Milwaukee is not just the host city for the Republican National Convention this summer, but Wisconsin is also a key battleground state that Trump must win. Soon after it was revealed that Trump stated the city was horrible, his allies made conflicting excuses in an effort to spin the story.

"I was the one that picked it," said Trump, who was found to have lied 30,573 times as president. "These lying people. They say, 'Oh, he doesn't like Milwaukee.' I love Milwaukee. I said we've got to fix the crime. We all know that. You've got to make sure the election is honest, but I'm the one who picked Milwaukee."

Donald Trump Says Business Executives Who Do Not Support Him Should Be 'Fired' for 'Incompetence'

Meanwhile, Trump, who left the economy in a bad state when he was replaced by Biden, claimed that business executives and shareholder representatives should "be 100% behind" him or face termination, according to Yahoo! News.

"Business Executives and Shareholder Representatives should be 100% behind Donald Trump! Anybody that's not should be FIRED for incompetence!," posted the former president on Truth Social, He was very pro-corporation as president despite billing himself a hero for the working class.
