Trump lets Iran bomb U.S. military base. How bad is his dementia?
Trump Says He Gave Iran Permission to Bomb U.S. Base in Qatar

Where is the U.S.’s Al Udeid Air Base which was bombed? What's in the transcript of Trump's speech? What are some signs of Trump's rapid mental decline? Check this StoryMap.
What could Trump’s verbal diarrhea mean?
"Suppose he is (for once) telling the truth. Wouldn’t that represent the most shocking dereliction of duty one could imagine for the commander-in-chief? (A high crime or misdemeanor, perhaps?) Is he saying he let Iran get its retaliation out of its system with what he called “a very weak response” to bring an end to hostilities? Perhaps Trump simply was rambling incoherently as he basked in his new “daddy” glow at NATO.
What would have happened if a Democratic president, particularly one named Joe Biden, had said he let a foreign adversary fire on an American military installation? As you consider that hypothetical, keep in mind that House Republicans are currently spending their precious oversight time investigating the former president’s mental acuity." - Josh Marshall in TPM
