The Meidas Touch reports:
The Ron Desantis campaign is seeking to capitalize on any momentum it will receive tonight with the endorsement from Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds by simultaneously launching a brutal broadside at Trump. This is, by far, the most aggressive attack made by the Desantis campaign yet on Trump. The clips include Trump forgetting what state he was in, confusing Biden with Obama, denying he said things he said a week before, confusing Kristi Noem with Nikki Haley, confusing George Bush with Biden, confusing George Bush with Jeb Bush, saying Orban was the leader of Turkey, saying Turkey bordered Russia, praising Hezbollah, saying World War II was about to begin, confusing RFK Jr with JFK Jr, confusing abortion laws, and telling people not to vote.

And Trump keeps referring to the Biden Administration as the “Obama Administration” — without catching himself.

Trump was asked about his vow to “use Special Forces to inflict maximum damage” on the Mexican drug cartels.

The weirdest part of that exchange? A week earlier Trump was asked a nearly identical question.
And he responded the same way: “I didn’t say that. Somebody said I said that.” pic.twitter.com/TMPWEjyVnn

During one interview, Trump confused Kristi Noem and Nikki Haley, then confused George W. Bush and Joe Biden just 45 seconds later.

Trump gave a shoutout to Viktor Orban — “the leader of Turkey.”
The problem? Orban is the prime minister of Hungary.pic.twitter.com/EV4LmuRdbD

A week later, Trump successfully labeled Orban as “the head of Hungary.”
But then he had another accident. Trump claimed Hungary borders Russia.
