Trump did his disastrous tariffs for one primary reason: he has a lifelong belief that he is being ripped off by everyone and a corresponding desire for retribution.

Goodbye, and good riddance.

Good night America, I loved you. There is nothing to say.

When Biden's cognitive decline became unmistakable in the debate with Trump, Democrats united to get him to drop out. Trump's rapid cognitive decline is now unmistakable. It disqualifies him from being president. This story is the October surprise.

Make no mistake: Trump is gone. We've got a dead heat in a race where one candidate is nearly dead, mentally.

This is my NY Times piece about why Trump is so terrifying. In two words: no conscience. https://t.co/CU5f0E3Wwq

As I wrote in The NY Times last week, Trump has all the key characteristics of a psychopath. He is also very clearly more addled and disoriented every day. Latest evidence: standing silently for a half hour at his rally last night. This is a toxic brew: psychopathy & dementia.

I believe history will show that Trump and Vance were the worst candidates ever to run for president and vice-president. The stunning question is whether enough Americans will recognize that, and vote accordingly on Nov 4th.

If you had any doubt that Trump is increasingly demented, saying that he hates Taylor Swift seems like irrefutable evidence.

It's time to say what's increasingly obvious: Trump is severely diminished as he approaches 80 years old. He's always been a small & limited human being, but it's way worse now. He can't string two thoughts together. He shouldn't be running anything, much less to be president.

Flash Fantasy: Republican leaders meeting to discuss how to get Trump to drop out. Terrified his debate debacle could mean loss of House & Senate. Not happening, but who would have guessed a few weeks ago that it would sound plausible. Trump: lifelong loser posing as a winner.

Of course Robert Kennedy will drop out and support Trump. Desperate times, desperate measures. They're two peas in a pod, 100% self-interested and deeply disturbed.

Trump doppelgänger stock is in free fall, just like Trump himself. Fraudulent. Fake. A scam. The market is finally catching up to this charade. Precursor to the election?

Has it ever occurred to anyone that Trump can't talk about economic policy (or any other policies) because he literally does not have more than a sentence to say?

Trump comes apart at the seams when he faces any serious challenge -- but especially from women, and especially so black women. Never forget that his underlying insecurity and rage know no bounds.

JD Vance is a fraud. No soul, all ego & opportunism. Best evidence: he says he has come to "like" Trump. I know Trump. No one who knows him likes him. There is nothing to like, nothing.

For what it's worth: I believe virtually any of the current potential candidates to replace Biden would defeat Trump. And potentially by a wider margin than Biden defeated Trump in 2020.

The biggest threat to the future of democracy at this point is Joe Biden -- by his refusal to stand down. It is an American tragedy.

In truth, Biden is a bigger danger to democracy at this moment than Trump, one of the worst human beings to inhabit this planet. Biden must withdraw as a candidate for president. Anything else is narcissism and delusion.

Please Joe, We love you. You have been an amazing president. Stand down. It's the only chance to save democracy.
