It is Wednesday, July 23rd. This is the warning. Donald Trump is failing. You may not pick that up

from his reality show. There, surrounded by the press, he's able to control his environment.

What he demands of his sycophants is performance on TV. Now, Trump has an unusual

1956, only to have a son who would have gladly carried around Fidel Castro's briefcase.

They are part of an administration that is burning food aid rather than disseminated. They're burning food aid that's already been

paid for. The money's been appropriated rather than distributed. We just made one of the greatest

geopolitical mistakes in my lifetime in the last several weeks by essentially abolishing USAID.
