Layered onto that, he says things solely with a view to the effect that his statements will have and without the remotest interest in or respect for what would normally be viewed as the substance of his words.
For him there simply is no substance. Reporting should focus always on identifying the impact which he is intending to achieve.
Textual analysis is a fool's game. Instead, highlight and explain his motive.

As someone who has textual analysis as my actual profession I try to play it not as a fools game but as a tool for understanding, but I know what you mean.
Anyway, Trump's instincts were always those of a bullshitter. They become even more pronounced as his consiousness shrinks.

Over time, it might even be 13%.

An obvious - and paradoxically beneficial - side effect of today's mad threats from Trump is that talk about his mental decline creeps further into mainstream media. Here it's four star general Barry McCaffrey entering it into the conversation.
