poor baby donald, the jig is up.Trump abruptly ends '60 Minutes' solo interview
President Donald Trump abruptly ended a solo interview with CBS News' "60 Minutes" and did not return for an appearance he was supposed to tape with Vice President Mike Pence, according to multiple sources familiar with what happened.
After camera crews set up at the White House on Monday, Trump sat down with host Lesley Stahl for about 45 minutes on Tuesday before he abruptly ended the interview and told the network he believed they had enough material to use, according to two sources.
CBS News did not immediately respond to a CNN request for comment. When reached for comment, the White House did not dispute CNN's reporting.
The President later accused Stahl of not wearing a mask and tweeted out a brief clip of her without one while at the White House.
A person familiar with the situation told CNN that the image from the tweet shows Stahl with her producers immediately after Trump ended the interview. Stahl had not yet gone back to get her personal belongings to put her mask back on. She had a mask on from the time she entered the White House and just before the interview began.
With about two weeks until the election, Trump has spent this week lobbing scatter-shot attacks and growing upset at depictions portraying his campaign as doomed. His truncated taping on "60 Minutes" seemed an extension of what has been Trump's visible irritation as he enters the campaign's final days.
What has Trump done to this country?

White House looks at cutting Covid funds, newborn screenings in ‘anarchist’ cities
Documents show funding for a host of health programs is at risk under the president’s order targeting liberal strongholds.

what happens when it's the SS Trust Fund and checks don't show? SSDI to be re-determined every two years?..it's not his favorite zero sum endgame but if they can't have the money he'll spend to make certain you don't..SNAP is on the chopping block too.They are deplorable.

Bloomberg strikes back! Ya would think Daddy Warbucks Bezos would drop a hundred million on Donald's head too. I'm pretty sure Bill Gates quietly ponied up some cash to get rid of Trump as well. He sure is making Donald sweat in the Florida heat.

Bloomberg knocks Trump back on his heels in Florida
The former New York City mayor’s spending is forcing the president to dig deep in the key swing state and enabling the Biden campaign to spend ad dollars elsewhere.
Billionaire Michael Bloomberg’s $100 million investment in Florida to defeat Donald Trump is recasting the presidential contest in the president’s must-win state, forcing his campaign to spend big to shore up his position and freeing up Democratic cash to expand the electoral map elsewhere.
Bloomberg’s massive advertising and ground-game spending, which began roughly a month ago, has thrown Trump into a defensive crouch across the arc of Sunbelt states. As a result, the president‘s campaign has scaled back its TV ad buys in crucial Northern swing states like Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan — a vacuum being filled by a constellation of outside political groups backing Joe Biden.
“It’s forced the Trump campaign to retrench in Florida. You can see it in the spending habits, in television and digital. They’re investing more at the expense of places they need to win,” said Steve Schale, who leads the pro-Biden Unite the Country super PAC.
“Basically, Trump has now been committed to the equivalent of land war in Asia by having to spend so much of his money in Florida, a state he has to win to get to 270 Electoral College votes,” Schale said. “And as a result, he doesn’t have the resources to compete everywhere he would like.”

This is why republicans are worried about Texas, changes caused by covid in registration, early and mail in voting have short circuited the GOP's usual voter suppression methods, huge numbers are showing up to vote. I'm cautiously optimistic about Texas.

Editorial: Texas’ record turnout is what democracy looks like — in case we forgot
In the land of voter suppression, the determined masses of masked-up voters snaking into polling places and dropping off mail ballots during the first week of early voting can seem more like defiant rebels than dutiful citizens exercising their sacred right to vote.
Rebels, we salute you. Count us among the many to applaud your peaceful, patriotic and long-overdue defiance against the undemocratic forces in Texas that have clung to power by obstruction, intimidation, gerrymandering and other tactics intended to keep Texas’ voter turnout among the lowest in the country.
Texas turnout of eligible voters in the 2016 presidential election was 51.4 percent, compared with a national average of 60.1 percent — a discrepancy largely attributable to the most restrictive voting laws in the nation.
Yet, in just seven days of early voting, Harris County was on pace Monday to reach half of its entire turnout for the 2016 election, according to the county clerk.
This is what democracy looks like, in case we forgot.
And it feels like victory — no matter which candidates win on Nov. 3. Yes, a victory for democracy and against those who have sought to thwart it for decades. In their backroom strategy sessions and courtroom filings, GOP power brokers have followed a corrosive philosophy articulated so well by right-wing strategist Paul Weyrich at a 1980 meeting in Dallas where he chided religious conservatives for their support of “good government.”
“They want everybody to vote. I don’t want everybody to vote,” Weyrich said. “… As a matter of fact, our leverage in the elections quite candidly goes up as the voting populace goes down.”
But the usual tricks aren’t working this time. Texas is leading the country in ballots cast so far, with more than 4 million votes counted as of Sunday, according to the U.S. Elections Project, a collection of voting statistics compiled by University of Florida professor Michael McDonald.
“Best turnout we’ve had ever. I mean ever,” Republican precinct chair Scott Robbins of Montgomery County told the Chronicle news team Thursday as reporters scrambled to cover record turnout in the Houston suburbs.
Voters have showed up in the face of new fears and obstacles laid determinedly in their path. Certainly, this is a high-stakes election where passions and concerns in all corners are heightened amid a global pandemic, flailing economy and epic contest between President Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden.
Still, we praise the public officials who have done everything possible to expand access to the polls so that more Texans than ever can make their voices heard.
Interim Harris County Clerk Chris Hollins is top of our list, along with all the workers and others who have helped his office prepare for a swarm of voters in 2020

He really has/is going over the edge & that should be of great concern to his family & this country & the World at large.
The guy now actually seems to be losing more self-control daily, if there was any to start with.
What the fuck have the Dr's injected this guy with?
Donald J Trump on steroids, just what the we, the USA & the World, needs especially now.
Trump is getting desperate — and his mental pathology is getting worse
As mental health professionals, we see a disturbed and destructive man whose psyche is unraveling before our eyes
