I wonder if confronting him makes much sense at this point. The continual barrage of nonsense in so-called press conferences tells the sad story . The witless poseur unmasks himself.

The President Admits His Motive for Holding USPS Funding Hostage Is that He Doesn’t Want Americans to Vote by Mail
globalnews.ca
Presidential elections are run by the individual states; it is up to them to decide how ballots are cast. I don't know US law but have to believe that overtly interfering or frustration the electoral process sure sounds like a felony.
Trump admits Postal Service funding stalled to avoid mail-in ballots - National | Globalnews.ca
“If we don’t make a deal, that means they don’t get the money,” Trump said in a Fox News interview. “That means they can’t have universal mail-in voting; they just can’t have it.”

'Do you regret all your lying?' White House reporter's question startles Trump
Aug 14, 2020
SV Dáte had waited five long years to ask Donald Trump one question: “Mr President, after three and a half years [of Trump’s presidency], do you regret at all, all the lying you’ve done to the American people?”
Confronted with Dáte’s question at Thursday’s White House briefing, Trump responded with a question of his own. “All the what?” he said.
Dáte: “All the lying, all the dishonesties.”
Trump: “That who has done?”
“You have done,” said Dáte, who is the Huffington Post’s White House correspondent. “Tens of thousan–”, he began to say, before Trump cut him off and called on another journalist, who asked a question about payroll tax.
In July, the Washington Post reported that Trump had told more than 20,000 “false or misleading claims” over the course of his presidency.

As his brother lay dying, Trump was on the golf course.

Again, never play any sport with Jared as your opponent. He will find a way to move the goalposts and/or boundaries.

The thesis that our time is defined by the decline of the American empire I believe to be historically distorted.
Our time is defined by the rise of the US and the Americas as significant geopolitical forces. The US loosing title of most powerful superpower say to China will not change this. China has periodically been the worlds largest superpower for thousands of years. It’s the rise of the Americas that have changed the global power dynamic not the other way around.

IMO the US started to lose its reputation around the later 1950s when Eisenhower came into power. They started going at it with the Russians, then Vietnam hit and things went downhill from there.
If anything the next superpower will be Europe and the EU.

The Roman Empire was still strong under Emperors Caligula and Nero.
The United States of America was still strong under Presidents Nixon and Trump.
In both cases, the bureaucracy was or is what is holding them both up. However, Trump is messing the bureaucracy making the fall of the US more possible and quicker.

This is the best he's got, and all he's ever had. He's really too stupid to see the contradictions - a profoundly ignorant man. Is there really anybody undecided in the US ? At this point is there anyone who can still be swayed by the incoherence ?
