Donald Trump veered between dismissing NATO, attacking European wind farms and brushing off stalled Iran talks during a televised phone interview on Monday, prompting fresh concern over the US President's grip on events as he contradicted himself three times in a single, rambling sentence.
The appearance came as Trump faces intense scrutiny over his handling of a widening crisis in the Middle East. Iran has halted talks with Washington over US military operations in Lebanon, and the White House has been trying to reassure allies that it can contain the fallout. Trump, who is seeking to return to office, has used the turmoil to argue he alone can manage the chaos. His latest performance made that case in a rather curious way.
