How does President Donald Trump deal with the non-stop bad news and dreadful poll numbers assaulting the White House every day? One former Trump official delivered the answer after MS NOW host Michael Steele asked him “what all the little mice around him” are doing to blunt the ugly numbers. “Are they lying in his ear and telling him those aren't real polls? Or does he not really give a crap?” Steele demanded. “They're lying to him like there's no tomorrow because that's the team he wanted to have in the second term,” said Miles Taylor, who worked for Trump in his first term as a DHS deputy chief of staff. “[Trump] was so irked that he spent four years in the first term hearing from people that were telling him bad news.” Taylor said it’s the same story from every autocrat “throughout history.” “They don't like to hear bad news. He does not have people around him who want to tell him bad news. And when he does encounter it — because you can't be in the re...

U ntil fairly recently , President Donald Trump’s MAGA fold mostly united around a certain set of beliefs. But researchers have now confirmed that at least one of their founding principles is based on the complete absence of any hint of fact in their lives or in their circle. “Psychology researchers Christopher Stockus, now at Marietta College, and Ethan Zell of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro … designed a project to measure whether an objective gap in factual knowledge exists between [left-leaning and right-leaning] political groups,” reports PsyPost . “The researchers wanted to investigate if this knowledge gap might explain the differences in how each group views the necessity of environmental policies.

But Stockus and Zell established a systematic method to evaluate ge...

Former White House Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Matthews says nobody can escape Father Time, and right now Father Time is trampling boot marks all over President Donald Trump’s mind. Her opinion came after a painful series of photos of Trump appearing to nod off and go straight into REM sleep at an important Oval Office Thursday conference, augmented with citations of Trump’s more unnerving late-night posts . “I just think it's gotten even worse in the sense that it's a little bit more extreme. In the first administration, we didn't have him posting about wanting to annihilate an entire civilization . And so … it seems like he's lost his fastball and that he's not beating Father Time,” said Matthews, who worked in Trump's first administration. “Look, you can't beat father time. And I think old age is catching up with him. And so he's not as on it and as sharp as he once was. And I think that is also just enhancing the craziness that was already kind...
