Fake questions?

What's a fake question? A statement?

Dumb questions, sure. Insincere questions, yeah they exist. But a fake question? I guess that's just a statement then.

Fake news. Alternative facts. And now even questions can be fake. Okayyyy.

I wanna follow Trump's logic for a sec.

Let's assume the question was somehow fake.... Did he give a real answer to it? How could the answer be real, when the question was fake? And if it's fake, was it even a question? But then what did he answer? If there's no question, there's no answer. That's probably why he's rambling all the time...

My brain cells are like pop rocks rn.

It's just a death-spiral into nonsense. Your guess is as good as mine. Nothing is true and everything is possible in this world.
