“It’s easy to grasp why there was plenty of coverage of Donald Trump’s bizarre episode last night — in which he gently swayed to music for 39 minutes on stage in Pennsylvania, raising new questions about his mental health. Even so, that version of Trump, pumping his arms arhythmically to Pavarotti, the Village People, and the rest of his playlist reliables, was preferable to the Trump who showed up over the weekend, when he repeatedly floated the idea of using military force against his political opponents. Unfortunately, Trump’s darkening vision doesn’t seem to be bothering approximately half of America.” (10/15/24)
