Krugman seems to think Trump is having a breakdown, and that may be correct. If so, it’s because he knows what’s coming. I still think he’ll weasel out of jail by resigning on medical grounds and getting pardoned; and bankruptcy is almost better than jail. Ignominy, that’s what I want. I am a bad person but he’s worse.

Time is running out for the resigning on medical grounds IMO. Maybe this behavior is probably a setup to resigning, but I don’t think it’s in Trump’s DNA to leave such an office under those means.

I’m in agreement with Keith Olbermann… that Trump literally feels he can do no wrong, while he’s self-destructing in front of all of us. He may have to be publicly arrested and taken out of office… and that’s if he doesn’t pull a Budd Dwyer in front of the cameras first.

It’s a dangerous, frightening situation. But of course e-mails and all that.
