So welcome. Let me know where you are. I'm in New York city, as you can probably see in the same spot that you see me in all the time. Um, I think in a place that's looks better than the, um, than the ballroom, than the tacky ballroom that they're building. We discussed that. I discussed that with Joanna, uh, Coles on, um,
on the Daily Beast podcast. We're just talking about how tacky that new ballroom is. But anyway, good morning, Illinois. Hello to you guys. Hello, Canada. Wow. Ohio. Los Angeles. It's early. Coming Georgia is here. Aye, aye, aye. It's right. So we're a little bit late. Sorry. Did you guys notice? Have you noticed that I've been on time? But who can I blame it on today? I don't know. I'm going to blame it on Andy. No, maybe I'll blame it on Peter. I can't blame Nikki because she just, you know, she left and the place fell apart. Anyways, so welcome everybody to the show. You know, I love, I was thinking as I was like, what am I going to talk about today? How am I going to tell people about this man? Have you seen what he's doing overseas?
Seriously, the man, his decline is alarming. And why is it, like where are the books about Donald Trump's decline? Houston, Texas in the chat. Where are the books about Donald Trump's decline? That's what I would like to know. And so I started thinking about it. And I was thinking, you know, I always think about things as I was talking to as I talk to people, I think about terms of I like old people. I'm an old person, but, you know, I like older people. I like wise people. I like to talk to people who've been around and who've been grounded. And I like I love I wish I wish my grandmother was still around. You know, I never got to meet my grandfather. I miss my grandma. I'm so happy. Knock on wood that my mom is still here.
But I like to you know what I mean? And so I think about how old people talk about these things and what they'd be saying about someone like Donald Trump or how they sit around, right? Because here's what they would say. Do you ever look at somebody? This is what they would say. You can just look at that person and see that they ain't all there, right? So you just look at someone and you know that they ain't all there anymore. I know that's bad grammar, but we're just talking amongst each other, right? But everybody around them, It's too scared to say it out loud. You know, Mr. Johnson, he's just eccentric. Or they'll say behind their back, you know, Mr. Johnson, he ain't all there. But they'll whisper it.
That's where we are with Donald Trump. This man is over in Asia, in Japan right now, stumbling and bumbling and mumbling around and bragging about some stupid memory test. Like he just solved world peace and he didn't. He claims he did. But that's what he's bragging about it like that. And here's the wild part. The Japanese prime minister had to literally, we're gonna show you, I like to show you the proof. I tell you and then I show you the proof. Literally, she had to guide him around. Kind of like when your uncle gets a little too lit at the cookout or whatever, and you don't want him to trip over the grill. It's kind of like that. Like, okay, Uncle Chester, go sit in the corner. That is not being strong.
That's decline. And it's decline in real time. And listen, I'm not saying this. I'm not trying to clown the man intentionally. I'm saying it because it's true. I'm not intentionally being petty. Although I can be. But this time I'm telling you I'm not. He keeps bringing up this cognitive test that he supposedly aced. You've heard it. Person, woman, man, camera, TV. Remember that? I remember that. That was so funny. He says it like it's, you know, it's the SATs and he just got a perfect score on the SAT.
