Those matters involve his obsession with the 2016 election and what he perceives were misdeeds by Democrats. He rattled off the names of people he has long despised and charged with crimes that he could not prove. They included former FBI Director James Comey, former CIA Director John Brennan, and two of his favorite targets, FBI agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page.<\/p>\n<p>However, the most peculiar part of this event occurred when Trump barreled into a long ago debunked conspiracy theory regarding a computer server belonging to the Democratic National Committee. Trump&#8217;s tirade on this subject was a spectacular display of hysterical incoherence <em>(video below)<\/em>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>I still ask the FBI, where is the server? How come the FBI never got the server from the DNC? Where is the server? I want to see the server. Let\u2019s see what\u2019s on the server. So the server they say is held by a company whose primary ownership individual is from Ukraine. I would like to see the server. I think it\u2019s very important for this country to see the server. Nobody wants to see it. The media never wants to see it. I\u2019ll tell you, Republicans want to see it.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Trump mumbles about <em>&#8220;the server&#8221;<\/em> eight times in that brief rant. His brain seems to have gotten stuck in an endless loop from which there is no escape. It&#8217;s indicative of his deranged mental state that is possessed by some mysterious whirlpool of inanities. And everything in this harangue is <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedailybeast.com\/crowdstrike-the-truth-about-trumps-insane-ukraine-server-conspiracy\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">wholly fictitious<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>What Trump is alluding to in his demented way is a server that was suspected of being hacked by foreign operatives seeking to disrupt the election. Trump is regurgitating conspiracy theories that emanated from the dark recesses of the ultra-right Internet. There is no plausible explanation for why Democrats would be suspected of any wrongdoing since they were the victims of the hacking.<\/p>\n<p>As for the FBI&#8217;s role in this, they did want to inspect the server to accumulate any evidence that might lead to the hackers. So the DNC made a <em>&#8220;mirror&#8221;<\/em> copy of its hard drive, which the FBI was satisfied would be sufficient for their investigative purposes. The FBI could have at any time requested to take into custody the physical server, but they determined that it wasn&#8217;t necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Ever since then, the only people who were ever interested in the server were conspiracy crackpots at Infowars, 8chan, and Fox News. And, of course, Donald Trump. He even brought it up in the now infamous phone call with Ukrainian President Zelensky. Somehow Trump got the idea that the server wound up in Ukraine. There is zero evidence of that. But that doesn&#8217;t stop Trump and his cadre of propagandists from continuing to disseminate this nonsense.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s not all, Later in the day Trump held a joint press conference with Mattarella. But in the middle of it Trump started talking about alleged corruption during the 2016 election again. Naturally, Trump sidestepped his own well documented criminal activities and launched into a bizarre rant about imaginary Democratic misconduct about which he asserted that <em>&#8220;Maybe it goes right up to President Obama. I happen to think it does.&#8221;<\/em> Needless to say, there is no evidence whatsoever of anything remotely resembling this reckless accusation.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s just Trump being Trump. And that&#8217;s what&#8217;s most frightening about all of this. He is totally unhinged from reality and getting worse every day. The imperative to impeach him could not be more urgent. There&#8217;s a lot of damage he could do in this condition.

And Trump followed up his tantrum with this tweet cementing his total insanity:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Nancy Pelosi needs help fast!
