The Slow Implosion of Donald Trump

At left is the front page of the New York Post, one of Rupert Murdoch’s (formerly) Trump-friendly publications.

Now, of course, Trump’s reaction was predictable: The Post has joined the rest of the fake news outlets, including the Wall Street Journal (!) and Fox News (!!).

What’s yet to be seen, however, is the Trump base’s response to the fact that, one-by-one, even the most irresponsible of the ultra-right-wing rags are throwing the towel in on Trump.

Trump’s demise has been slow and steady; we haven’t seen a major explosion in the form of, say, an indictment out of Georgia, followed by federal charges from special counsel Jack Smith, who appears to be ramping up the pressure here.

All that could change any minute.
