Trump Is Bragging About Cognitive Tests—Which Means He's Already Failed Them
"He really seems to be getting worse. He seems to be getting more senile," Seth Moulton says.
Donald Trump is becoming an increasing threat to our troops, our country, and the economy. In the latest episode of The Daily Beast Podcast, I sat down with Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton to discuss everything from why the Strait of Hormuz is currently a disaster zone and how “personal retribution” became our primary foreign policy. But we also look at the man in the middle of it all—Seth’s take on the president’s “cognitive tell” is as insightful as it is alarming. Let’s get into it:
Iran is running the show: I asked Seth to give us the reality on the ground because, honestly, does anyone actually know what’s happening in the Strait of Hormuz? For the first time in 50 years, the U.S. has allowed Iran to actually close the strait. Seth points out that even under George W. Bush’s wars or Jimmy Carter’s failed raids, this has never happened. Now, the Islamic regime is effectively “winning this war” while we’re stuck in a “pickle” of Donald Trump’s making. Seth places the blame squarely on the president and “the most incompetent” Secretary of Defense in American history, Pete Hegseth.
