Meanwhile, not missing a beat in the 2024 carnival, former President Donald Trump announced he has autism, turning the political circus into an episode of 'Guess My Diagnosis.' The episode serves a cocktail of breakthroughs and bizarre headlines like a caffeinated TED Talk. Toss in ā€˜and more’ as the polite way to say ā€˜brace yourself,’ because frankly the news cycle resembles a reality show pitch with all the drama and questionable authenticity.
