This is so delightful, you're attacking this with admirable verve and panache! You're claiming that I'm conclusively wrong while filling your arguments with enough caveats to make Swiss cheese envious. It's fun to say that Trump has the uncanny ability to recall weekdays, but he got it wrong this time, and actually he was trying to say "last week of the show" but he also got that one wrong. Pretzels are yummy.

I don't know how to explain to you that it's abnormal to recall specific weekdays for things that happened decades ago except to cite conversations with normal people. If Trump did indeed have a habit of recalling specific weekdays, I would note that as peculiar but I'd withdraw my claim that it's an indication of dementia. We don't have that with Trump, especially since the guy regularly confuses and forgets names (see e.g. Nancy Pelosi = Nikki Haley or "We've endorsed JD Mandel").

Again, thank you for the informative exchange. I learned there's no bottom to the sanewashing.
