Newsom goes after Trump's mental state

 USA Today  -  California Gov. Gavin Newsom is questioning President Donald Trump’s mental acuity in the pair's running clash over immigration enforcement in Los Angeles, echoing the president’s campaign criticism of his predecessor, Joe Biden.

Newsom said Trump commended the National Guard early on June 8 for quelling violence before troops arrived on the scene, made up a conversation about discussing the deployment and got the date of their phone conversation wrong.

“They weren’t even deployed and he claimed victory. He’s lost it. He hasn’t lost a step – and I saw him trip on the steps today,” Newsom told Fox News in Los Angeles on June 8. “This is serious. He is not the same person that I dealt with just four years ago. He’s incapable of even a train of thought. He’s making things up.”
