Chapters

Trump's increasingly erratic behavior, marked by bizarre claims about Kamala Harris and a concerning helicopter anecdote, has raised questions about his mental state. His advisors are reportedly rattled by his meandering and mean public performances, and his actions seem driven by a combination of age, denial about Harris's success, and the looming threat of legal consequences.
  • Trump's advisors are concerned about his erratic behavior.
  • Trump made false claims about Kamala Harris faking crowds and having a helicopter crash with Willie Brown.
  • Trump's behavior may be influenced by his age and the legal challenges he faces.
