  • Jones suggested Trump's health was declining, comparing his current state to his late grandfather's dementia and claiming his brain was 'not doing too hot'.
  • He also alleged that swelling around Trump's ankles indicated heart failure and described Trump's suggestion to attack Iran's water supplies as a 'war crime'.
