Trump, 79, forgets who is with him on Pittsburgh trip as rambling talk includes unlikely Unabomber story
Trump’s speech in Pennsylvania about his uncle’s connection with the Unabomber raises concerns
- Donald Trump delivered a rambling speech in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he made several improbable claims and appeared to forget names.
- Trump falsely asserted that his late uncle, Dr. John Trump, taught Theodore Kaczynski, the Unabomber, at MIT, despite Kaczynski never attending the institution.
- He also claimed to have discussed Kaczynski with his uncle, which is highly unlikely as his uncle died in 1985, years before Kaczynski was identified as the Unabomber.
- During the event, Trump forgot the names of aides and made an unsubstantiated claim about securing $16 trillion in US investment.
- The speech raised concerns about Trump's age and capacity, as he is the oldest person to ever be sworn in as president.
