The Big Picture

The Meltdown In Trumpland

Move the deck chairs on the Trumptantic all you want: the iceberg still wins.

As I warned yesterday, the LaCivita/Wiles Death Clock was ticking. Trump added the odious troll, creep, and violent weirdo Corey Lewandowski — also known as Dog-Killing Kristi Noem’s backdoor loverman — as the Chairman of his campaign. Chris, Susie, and Tony The Pollster, also as predicted, are shoveling oppo on Corey faster than you can imagine. It’s magical.

We have been hitting Trump with several inside-his-head ads for months, driving a wedge between him and his lead strategists. He can’t stop watching, and we knew this was inevitable. But even we couldn’t engineer him bringing back Corey Lewandowski. What? Was Dick Morris too busy?
