General Discussion

I am not sure if he ever actually wrote his late-night diatribes, but they always came out in his voice, as if he dictated them and approved them before sending. But the latest one about Venezuela is spooky. It includes the word "extraordinary". I doubt Trump has used that word in 30 years, if ever. This tells me that people are moving in to take over his voice, and Trump doesn't have the acuity or energy to fight that. He would never allow that if he were even slightly functional.

He has looked terrible in his recent appearances. We are hearing regular stories of fights, even physical ones among the various factions. It seems very likely that MIller planted the WashPo story about the dog killer and her grotesque corruption with the airplane. These are all signs that Trump is fading fast. In Trump's mind, he is the beloved king. But everybody else around him sees the writing on the wall. Some are trying to grab power before Vance becomes POTUS. Others are probably trying to run a few final grifts while they can. And others are trying to clean up their record so they won't face Congressional investigation 10 months from now and prosecutions 3 years from now.

THings are moving quickly in trump's inner circle now. And the Epstein thing is also exploding out of control.
