    I didn’t think he was having an affair with Laura Loomer until he basically insisted he wasn’t as an answer to an unrelated question.

      Just like the cognitive tests. No one asked him how he did on the cognitive tests, heck no one can find out how he actually did thanks to HIPAA. But he obvously has no understanding of that so he thinks he needs to get ahead of the story of how terribly he did on the cognitive tests.

        This is the classic Trump response to an awkward, uncomfortable question. 1) Don’t answer the question and then 2) Answer another question that nobody asked.

        For example, when Trump was asked about paying for hookers, instead of simply saying, “I don’t patronize prostitutes” he said, “I’m a germophobe” instead.
