1. Because I Am Not Serious

   Trump is a senile old man with some sort of degenerative brain condition and he will brag to anybody about anything. This isn’t about Russia, really, it’s about a president of the United States who brags to people that important people visit him in the Oval Office. A president of the United States who brags that he won the election. A president of the United States who tells reporters about how impressed people are with him. A man – not just a man, but the president of the United States of fucking America – who can’t have a conversation without telling someone how impressed other people are with him. He’ll tell anybody anything to impress them with how impressive he is.

   Trump has been on my teevee and radio my entire adult life. I was a Howard Stern listener for a long time. Trump was a regular. He was always a horrible narcissistic braggart, but not like this. He has a problem, we have a problem, and despite the fact that his handlers keep telling the press that they have to treat him like a 5 year old, no one will come right out and say the obvious: Trump is in serious mental decline and also he runs the world.

2. Not All There

   I feel a bit like I’m taking one for the team here, but Trump is not all there and the people who know it have to say so. This is not a clinical diagnosis. This is an observation from someone who has seen Trump on his teevee his whole life and remembers when he was a rich dumbass who could string sentences together like any other rich dumbass Penn “special admissions” graduate instead of a guy who clearly isn’t always quite sure where he is. People who work for him and journalists who have spent time with him know this. They have to say it. It’s a problem. I don’t want President Pence, either, but…

3. Trump’s Worldview

   If I am confronted with one more piece of serious “journalism” about what Trump Thinks About Things…

   He’s a senile racist old man who watches Fox news and gets pissed off and otherwise doesn’t know anything about anything who thinks he is super smart and thinks all deals are zero sum the end.
