Donald Trump has made a bizarre confession about his own health at an event at the White House.

The US president was addressing a group of firefighters when he went on a tangent about personal vices.

“If you don’t drink or you don’t take drugs or if you don’t smoke, there’s no problem,” Trump said.

“I have other problems, I have some very severe problems. But those are not one of them.”

“I don’t want to add them to the list, 'cos if I did I guarantee I wouldn’t be here right now.”

    Its kinda bugging me that he used the words collateral damage when it comes to citizens dying. He parrots a lot of stuff he’s heard in meetings recently and its just a bit unsettling. What is the collateral damage he was likely recently told about?

      It reminds me of a few months back when he was talking about groceries as though he had just heard the word for the first time.

        I’d misremembered that that was one of the words he thought he coined, but it’s not. He called the word “old fashioned” and said something like “It’s basically a bag with different things in it.” So… still idiotic, but not quite what I remembered. It’s hard to keep up with his fucking dementia. lol
