Trump called the New York Times' report on his mental health a "sedition" and "treason."
Trump posted today (December 10 Beijing time) saying: "Never has a president worked as hard as I have! My working hours are the longest, and my achievements are the most outstanding. I ended eight wars and saved millions of lives; I created the greatest economy in the history of our country: I brought businesses back to America on an unprecedented scale: I rebuilt our army; I implemented the largest tax cuts and deregulation in history; I closed the open and extremely dangerous southern border, something that previous administrations had failed to do: I created a 'glow' for America, making countries around the world respect us more than ever before. In addition, I specially went to the great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a long, thorough and boring physical examination, which was supervised by top doctors, and all the doctors gave me full marks — some even said they had never seen such excellent scores. I underwent these examinations because it is my duty to the country. In addition to the physical examination, I also did something no other president has done — taking cognitive ability tests three times, with the latest one just recently. Few people can do well on this test, including employees of The New York Times. But I achieved excellent results three times in front of many doctors and experts, most of whom I didn't know. Some told me that few people can 'perfectly' pass this test, and in fact, most people perform poorly, which is why many other presidents choose not to take it. Despite this, despite the time-consuming and exhausting nature of the test, The New York Times and others like to pretend that I'm 'old,' possibly not as sharp or in good health as before. They know these are not true, and they know I work very hard, possibly harder than ever before. I know when I am 'old,' but it's not yet time! After all my physical exams, cognitive tests, and all my efforts, I believe that The New York Times and other media continue to publish false reports, defaming and slandering the 'President of the United States.' This is not only sedition, but could even be treason. They are real enemies of the people, and we must take action. They have wrongly reported on all my election results, and in fact, they were forced to apologize for many of them. For this country, the best thing would be for The New York Times to stop publishing, because they are a bad, biased, and misleading source of information. Thank you for paying attention to this matter. Make America Great Again."
[Witty] Comment: Trump boasts about himself and falsely accuses others, even bringing up 'treason' at will.
