He's crispier than usual

He's crispier than usual

by digby

He's openly demeaning the press even more vociferously than usual. Just today he personally went after April Ryan and Abby Phillips. On Wednesday he went after Yamiche Alcindor and they banned Jim Acosta. I'm sure it's just a coincidence that the three women are black and Acosta is Latino.

And he pretty much spoke in gibberish at his press avail this morning, starting with this:

Read this whole thread. It will make you laugh and weep that anyone believes any of these Trump claims. https://t.co/SYiSmPArxU

Trump suggests, without presenting any evidence, that Democrats are trying to steal the election from Rick Scott in Florida

TRUMP attacks OBAMA: "I'll never forgive him for what he did to our United States military by not funding it properly. It was depleted. Everything was old and tired and I came in and I had to fix it and I'm in the process of spending tremendous amounts of money." pic.twitter.com/6wPfEE1H6b

LOL -- Trump suggests Mueller should have been confirmed by the Senate before starting as special counsel. Ridiculous whataboutism.

Trump asserts that the doctored video Sarah Sanders shared of Acosta was not actually doctored, it was just "a close-up view." pic.twitter.com/prrqgd8UI1

Does this seem like a stable person to you?

What's up with him? Is it just because he lost the House and doesn't know how to spin it as a win so he's frustrated? Is he worried about what's going to happen to him when they take the reins in January or is it Mueller? Is he just coming apart at the seams?

I don't' know. But he's going even beyond his usual obstreperousness.
