Bizarre Trump Speech About Grass Has Everyone Thinking He’s ‘Completely Lost His Mind’
Former U.S. President Donald Trump left many puzzled after claiming he knows more about grass than “any human being in the world.” The unusual remark came during a speech about redeveloping Washington, D.C.’s parks and quickly gained attention online.
Trump told reporters his experience owning golf courses made him an authority on turf. He suggested the grass in Washington had “died about 40 years ago,” linking his vision for park improvements to his background in lawn management.
Clips of the speech spread rapidly on social media, sparking disbelief and ridicule. Some users joked that Trump was debating grass while Americans worried about jobs and healthcare, while others defended his comments by pointing to his golf course expertise.
The discussion also revived memories of Trump’s controversial $2 million renovation of the White House Rose Garden, where grass was replaced with white stone. Critics noted the contradiction between his professed love for grass and his decision to pave over a historic lawn.
Trump had defended the redesign, saying soggy grass created problems during press events and that the white stone was both practical and visually appealing. He argued the lighter material reflected heat and matched the White House exterior.
While some brushed off the grass comments as typical Trump eccentricity, others saw them as a distraction from pressing national concerns such as the economy and foreign policy.
Ultimately, the moment highlighted Trump’s tendency to dominate headlines with unusual statements—whether by design or impulse—leaving Americans divided between humor and frustration.
🚨WTF: In a bizarre moment, Trump rants about grass at DC parks: “I know more about grass than any human being… Grass has a life. We have a life, and grass has a life. The grass here died about 40 years ago.”
Has Trump’s completely lost his mind?
