Trump Derangement Syndrome
Should you think from George Conway’s take-down that it’s impossible to be too opposed to Trump, you’d be wrong. There is a real possibility of a Trump Derangement Syndrome:
Mr. Schiff didn’t see it for what it was and rise to the moment. He proceeded to beat Mr. Maguire around the head, grilling him and interrupting answers. You went to the White House. You told the president’s lawyers. Why didn’t you come to me sooner? He fixated on “sequencing” and “chronology.”
He seemed to miss the story totally and have no sense of how people at home would experience it. He was weirdly hostile.
I was watching at home like an American and thought: What’s wrong with you? The nation’s top spy, who appears thoroughly upstanding, is expressing no skepticism about a complaint that alleges his boss, the president, is kind of a bum.
How could you miss that? You’d have to be blinded. By what?
