The New Republic

Donald Trump’s presser Thursday was a scattered assortment of unrelated topics.

While press...

Donald Trump is handling the narcissistic injury of trailing a Black woman in the polls about as well as could be expected, which is to say: The former president is variously denying and lashing out at reality itself, lamenting that he’s no longer running against another elderly man and complaining in all-hours rage posts that his opponent's throngs of enthusiastic supporters are fake and actually generated by computers.
