On Wednesday morning, Donald Trump had some kind of meltdown on his
Truth Social profile, all before 10 a.m.
His many posts and “ReTruths” were conspiracy laden, crude, and calling
for the death or imprisonment of his enemies. One showed Harris, Bill
Gates, Anthony Fauci, and other Democrats wearing orange jumpsuits
captioned with: “HOW TO ACTUALLY ‘FIX THE SYSTEM.’” Multiple posts had
QAnon themes, particularly the slogan “WWG1WGA.” Other posts called for
a military tribunal for former President Barack Obama, and attacked the
FBI, the Justice Department, and the House January 6 committee.

If Trump’s posting binge is a reflection of his state of mind, it’s not
a good one. The Republican presidential nominee and convicted felon has
experienced many setbacks as of late. On Tuesday, special counsel Jack
Smith filed a superseding indictment against Trump for his role in
trying to overthrow the 2020 federal election.
Meanwhile, polling shows him neck-and-neck with Harris in the pivotal
state of North Carolina, which voted for Trump in the last two
elections. A series of revelations from a new book by his former
national security adviser, General H.R. McMaster, have been particularly
damaging. And he’s been whining about the debate coming up against
Harris on September 10.
All of this bad news coupled with a conspiracy-laden, sycophantic social
media feed cannot be healthy for Trump, particularly with his ongoing
cognitive decline. Last week, he accidently praised Harris and Biden,
saying they made the country “very safe.” Older voters, typically a
reliable voting block for Republicans, reportedly think that he is in
poor health, especially regarding his mental condition. And experts see
patterns in his speech and behavior that have been worsening for years.
Trump’s campaign staff and his loved ones should be getting the former
president to spend less time on social media, especially at his age.

Trump is not well.
