Trump's lawyers and Fox News preparing a dementia-defense for Trump. (Seriously.)

Here his lawyers argue that Trump's tweets don't count as evidence because he doesn't know what he's talking about.

And here Fox News argues that Trump technically isn't lying because his memory simply changes with time.

FAULKER: Would that make the president not telling the truth be not telling the truth now?

MONTGOMERY: I don't know, man. I think that some of this is fluid for him. And I think, you know, his memory sort of changes with time, and that's one of the reasons his lawyers didn't want him sitting down with special counsel. But, in his defense -- and I really believe this -- he thought he wasn't going to win. ...

His own defenders are arguing that the President of the United States doesn't know what he's talking about and that he no longer has a functioning memory.

His defenders!

25th Amendment anyone?
