Anyone hailing from an authoritarian country is horrified by that Trump video, as should be anyone who values democracy over demagoguery. The staging, boasting, the disregard for people’s lives. He won’t change and he must go.

Irony is laughing its ass off.

Trump couldn’t pass a drug test for the next debate. He’s on steroids, the mother of all performance enhancing drugs.

Trump's approach, Buck said, “didn’t pass the laugh test for a super serious situation that has ruined millions of people’s lives.” But he said it was still concerning because “half the country takes their cues from him.” https://t.co/ctxBclwoCc

Well, not half; especially considering how many new battleground states there are, thanks to Trump.

Some Trump advisers maintain they think they have a path, but it heavily relies on, between now and the scheduled second debate, convincing people Trump beat the virus/it's not that bad. That debate is in 10 days https://t.co/ctxBclwoCc

200,000+ people just gave up too soon? Yeah, that’s a bumper sticker I wanna see.  Half the country will support that, right? Besides:

“There’s a high-risk strategy here and I hope that the president doesn’t rush back into the campaign mode — which he wants to do before he gets well — until they tell him he’s no longer a danger to everybody else,” said Ed Rollins, an adviser to a super PAC supporting Mr. Trump.
