Trump Has Twitter Concerned After Mixing Up The Words 'Whistleblower' And 'Ventilator' During Press Briefing

After daily briefings, many feel it's clear President Donald Trump's priorities are intact.

First comes Donald Trump, then everything else comes second.


Petty comments, rants about rivals and whining about impeachment still dominate the President's remarks during a global public health crisis.

During Saturday's press briefing, Trump whinged about the unnamed whistleblower after firing Michael Atkinson, the intelligence community inspector general who followed proper rules, procedures and public law.

The reason? Atkinson followed proper rules, procedures and public law instead of the will of Trump.

The President said:

"That man is a disgrace to IGs. Let's go. Next. He's a total disgrace. He's not a Trump fan, I can tell you that."
"You know who the whistleblower is, and so do you, and so does everybody in this room, and so do I. Everybody knows."
"But they give this whistleblower a status that he doesn't deserve. He's a fake whistleblower. And frankly, somebody ought to sue his ass off."

Trump clearly is still preoccupied with being impeached for his actions.

The next question concerned New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and the state's desperate need for ventilators. The Chinese government is even stepping up to offer help.

Trump interrupted the question to say:

"Let me tell you what he didn't say. Two very good friends of mine brought him those whistleblowers...ventilators, right?"

You can see the moment here:

Trump's latest gaffe didn't go unnoticed.

People called out the President and questioned his mental stability as well as his fans' hypocrisy.










The President's behavior in briefings is not winning him fans outside of his already devoted followers.

Maybe it's time to step away from the podium and let qualified medical experts do all the talking.

Talk of the 25th amendment—which provides an avenue for removal of any President physically or mentally incapacitated—is also on the rise as a result of the President's performance.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
