1. Trump responds in Trumpian fashion

For those who might be curious about what the headline actually refers to...

Trump said he won in 2024 by “a Landslide,” which isn’t true and has nothing to do with concerns about his advanced age. He added that he’s “settled 8 Wars” (which isn’t true), created a “Great” economy (which isn’t true) and delivered on making the United States “RESPECTED AGAIN all over the World” (which isn’t true).

This was the president’s opportunity to put his best foot forward. That he responded with a flurry of nonsense isn’t a great sign.

Trump went on to insist that “I have never worked so hard in my life,” shortly before departing for his glorified country club in Florida where he’s spent an inordinate amount of time this year relaxing and playing golf.
