People can’t stop cracking up over the former president’s bizarre, bumbling speech.

Speaking outside Allentown, Pennsylvania, on Sunday, Donald Trump left everyone confused when he attempted to explain the Battle of Gettysburg, praised (and invented a quote from) Confederate General Robert E. Lee, and generally had no idea what he was talking about.

When his off-the-cuff remarks hit late-night television on Monday, the hosts couldn’t hide their laughter.

“You have to hand it to this guy: On the weekend before his unprecedented criminal trial begins, he somehow manages to overshadow it with this broken-brained interpretation of what happened at Gettysburg during the Civil War,” Jimmy Kimmel quipped.

    There are primaries, you can write in who you want for an election, and there are a ton of elections that affect you more directly than the presidency.

    Who stopped you from voting for who you wanted? That’s a crime.

    And let me be clear: I have no love for the libertarian party. It’s over 70% male and over 90% white, which speaks volumes. They’re Republicans who want to simplify everything to nothing and ignore reality. But they do actually try to win elections unlike any other third party, so they get a tiny bit of my respect specifically there.
