Did President Trump forget the words to the national anthem?

President Trump managed to cause another controversy surrounding the national anthem and it wasn’t about kneeling.

As the national anthem echoed throughout the stadium of the college football national championship, President Trump, with his hand on his heart, “...was mouthing some words during parts of the national anthem, but it was unclear what he was saying. He didn’t open [his] mouth during other parts.”

The viral moment reigniting questions of Trump’s mental fitness. One writing, “It looked like Donald Trump just kept repeating 'applesauce'...”

Some saying its not forgetfulness, he just doesn’t know the words. “When the camera panned to him he just had that mouth agape, thousand-yard stare going.”

The puzzling moment came as Michael Wolff’s explosive new book “Fire and Fury” claims the president has become increasingly forgetful, repeating himself word-for-word.

Trump has fervently denied any such claims of instability, “my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart.” Labeling himself, “a very stable genius.”
