Donald Trump has finally lost his mind

But however close we sometimes seem to that dark and final abyss, let no man of peace and freedom despair. For he does not stand alone. — John F. Kennedy, address to UN General Assembly, Sept. 25, 1961
Longtime White House correspondent Brian Karem writes a weekly column for Salon.

Donald Trump's insanity is a clear and present danger to the existence of humanity.

Facing 78 felonies in three different jurisdictions, with a grand jury in Fulton County, Georgia, still waiting to weigh in — and perhaps facing additional federal charges or possible state charges in Michigan, Arizona and elsewhere — Donald Trump has spent the last few days spewing forth an extraordinary level of venom, even for him. While our current president is dealing with the economy, an overseas war and increased aggression in the Middle East and Asia, Trump is running for president hoping to avoid prison time, while also seeking revenge for his 2020 defeat. He is unquestionably insane, either temporarily or for good.
