    Ramin Setoodeh, co-editor-in chief at Variety, said he did an hour long sit-down interview with Trump

    A few months later, Setoodeh met with Trump again… Trump had “no recollection of our lengthy interview,”

    Setoodeh said. “As the journalist who spent the most time with him,”

    Yeah, sure you are little buddy. Because no other journalist got more than 2 interviews. MF had Megan Kelly and Tucker on speed dial.

    TFW you’re really just a forgettable person.

      I have questioned Trump’s cognitive abilities. He’s definitely declined mentally over the last 30 years.

      But you’re absolutely right on this. These people meet hundreds or thousands of people daily and do lots of interviews. It’s not surprising at all.

      Maybe you have a memory as bad as Trump’s, because if I spent two hours with someone one-on-one and then saw them just a few months later, I’d remember them.

      Here’s what you’re ignoring.

      A good executive has a staff that reminds him of these things. Even if it was a brief meeting, Trump should have been aware that he’d had a sit down with them before.

      Either Trump was reminded and forgot, or he’s too incompetent to set up a basic system like this.

    He wants the presidency to exonerate himself. That’s it. He knows he’s going to prison if he loses the election.

    He has zero care or motivation to further the country once he’s in power. He wants to save his own ass and his properties.

      Sadly, this is the best case scenario if he manages to win.

    Or maybe he’s just a narcissist and racist enough that Ramin Setoodeh is not someone he would care about in the first place.

    To be fair, I doubt he tries to remember most people because they mean nothing to him. He will simultaneously say he doesn’t know someone, but that they are “good people,” or a “great guy.”

    I have really bad memory like that. So I don’t run for president. So it’s not a good idea to let that guy run either.
