New reporting shows Trump’s inner circle worried he failed to handle Covid hitting the White House, bungled debates over a final stimulus package before the election, and 'blew' his chance to reset the campaign – raising broader questions of whether he is self-sabotaging. 'Art of the Deal' co-author Tony Schwartz discusses Trump’s penchant for hurting himself, how his approach has coarsened over the years, and the wider potential danger facing the U.S. if Trump loses and tries 'to bring us down with him' before leaving office, in this interview with MSNBC's Ari Melber. (This interview is from MSNBC’s “The Beat with Ari Melber, a news show covering politics, law and culture airing nightly at 6pm ET on MSNBC. ). Aired on 10/13/2020.

'He Knows': Trump Fixated On 'Likely' Loss To Biden, Per Trump Insider | MSNBC
The level of self-destruction 45* has had his whole life gives incompetence a whole new depth of meaning.
@Plen122 he has some big debts, Idk if he can go anywhere and be welcome.
@Montesa ,Really miss foreigner? Do you actually think the entire United States voted him in? Mind your own business
@Plen122 Russia is one country with which we have no extradition treaty.
@myko freder We can never forget that tRump could not have done so much damage if Republicans had not broken our system of checks and balances.
LOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP!After we vote him out!!!!🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Key vote in masses take election seriously vote.
I don’t think he knows the meaning of it. And that’s sad.
Trump doesn’t really care, at this stage about anything. He’s trying to hurt the Americans, as much as he is hurting at the prospect of losing.
@John Cox This is exactly what another narcissistic fascist (Adolf Hitler) did in WWII. Losing a war on all fronts, Hitler was prepared to see the whole country destroyed and millions die unnecessarily just to prop up his delusion of “the master race”. The parallels between Trump and Hitler are amazing.
@Lol !! Trumphausen Syndrome by Proxy is Munchhausen Syndrome as applied to autocratic morons.
The cult of MSNBC
Go away Russian troll
Yes; he’s vindictive.
Can the Speaker on behalf of the people send Trump a bill for the use of the White House when he used it for personal re election events?
@Travis Sad but the hole in the Hatch act is that it applies to Government Employees only.
As Trump is not classed as an Employee being the President, the Hatch act does not apply to him.
Yes can we get some of our money back from this administration? That will be enough to stimulate the economy.
@Nicole Backer I’m proud that I’d rather drink a soy latte than be an ignorant, racist Trump deplorable…
Midwid.. tRump doesn’t have any money.. he owes everything he has to Russia, China , and Saudi Arabia
Ny already been gunning for him..i pray there case is strong Trump needs to be jailed for YEARS!
Trump really doesn’t want to win . He wants to lose and feel sorry for himself and spend the rest of his life crying and complaining about how he got screwed. Pitiful.
don’t be silly Trump is not a Democrat. so i’m sure he will simply go back to work if he loses. It’s just a blessing from God that we wont have to worry about that. Trump by a landslide 2020!!! we will leave the crying to the anqueefa pros
@Jeff Brisson I hope he does because the truth of his lies will come to light.
Jail
💁🏻♀️who cares? He’s lost before & declared bankruptcy. He’s not going to be homeless if he loses. Grown up 👶 baby! Melania should give him a pacifier 🍼 at night!
Roland Jandreau all while sitting in federal prison
Trump’s defeat is nowhere near a foregone conclusion. National polls are meaningless. VOTE!!
Insist on voting when there are no suitable candidates & America will find themselves in a WORSE situation than what they are in now!
CAN’T FIX STUPID!
True – he didn’t expect to win last time, either…
But who are those people vote for him… indenty at wht cost white base
They arent meaningless but our vote means much more. I’m glad you are all so engaged though.
Remember 2016 and vote!
I think he lied about having Covid as a distraction for the Supreme Court Seat, he lies about everything anyways.
Mmmm…….
@Susan Farley Where is your source?
@Susan Farley The “Trump didn’t really have COVID” is just a nutty, baseless conspiracy theory like the ones from QAnon.
@clarkb91 her source is all of those minion doctors standing close together on Live television without masks on… tRump paid these docs “hush money” to go along with this fake Pastor jim jones I’m now cured from my deadly virus act.
The mere fact that the American people as a whole can even begin to doubt whether our “leader” is telling the truth about being infected with a deadly disease is more than enough proof that he is grossly unfit to be in any position of importance, let alone the president. And that is still a massive understatement imo
Vote Blue this November, if you’re Republican you can give yourselves the chance to choose a proper candidate instead of a clown who knows the keywords to incite fear and hate in your party.
No extradition in Russia where his new hotel and golf course is being built, yeah, putie , you’ll have bromantic going on
Take his passport the day he loses and lock his planes up. Keep him in America he loves it so much.
@come and get it he will head to the Russian Embassy and he will get into an armored car and get on a Russian plane and fly to Russia..all under the protections of the Russians and guess what his freaking base will say he had to run
Once Putin has no use for him, he’ll drop him like a red hot manhole cover.
No deal for Donnie & family regarding a one way ticket to Moscow. The only remedy is long jail terms, seizure of assets, etc.
Good chance he’ll be seeking asylum in Russia.
Anger is an emotion! Do not trust polls! Vote Biden Harris 2020
November 3, 2020
My day of LIBERATION!!
I did yesterday
Absolutely! Vote! Don’t listen to polls and especially msm pundits!
What he means is its a secondary emotion. One that is caused by other emotions like hurt, frustration or fear.
Vote for Seal team six
It is all about himself, if it doesn’t benefit him, he is not going to do it, period!
Have to agree on you for that.no doubt on it.
@Jayjoejames We’re so lucky to have the democrats. Biden, Harris, pelosi, and Schumer- They really don’t care about themselves, only their fellow Americans. I mean pelosi is worth over 100,000,000 all earned while sacrificing and helping the less fortunate.
@D M not only they care about their fellow Americans but also helping Americans in this time of this pandemic by staying 1meter apar and no mass gatherings.this is the only way to fight this spread and also practicing by using facemask to proctect ourself and not being selfish by.i really hope Biden wins the elections.Americans need a real president in this time of this pandemic.
Psychologists will be scratching their heads about this for decades.
Nah he’s nothing they haven’t seen before. A common malignant narcissist.
He should be a clinical case study in psychopathology taught in med school.
My wife and I cast our ballots to get rid of Trump. We have done our part. Have you?
@Cynthia A Thank you! 👍😀
YES! My husband and I voted BLUE all the way today!
🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊from me, a week ago. My husband did it too.
@Steve Zide hahahaha! Actually I saw all your 7 ballots floating in the river over there. You know—the river!
Yes! Thank you. Our voting starts this Saturday! Dump Trump! Vote him out!
Trump didn’t destroy the Republican party. They destroyed themselves by not standing up to a president in times when the American people needed a leader.
They all sucked up the benefits of a huge tax break… all bought and paid for.
You can put the crack pipe down any time now!! The Democratic party is IMPLODING!! 😂😂😂
@None of your Business true!
The republican aren’t destroyed. They will be back in 2 years at the midterms. People have VERY short memories.
@Jim Schleehauf I am not one to call out spelling errors but you spelt Demonic wrong. But you’re so right, there is evil in the white house
It’s disgusting to see him dancing around after so many have died because of his negligence! Him and his supporters can kiss me where the sun doesnt shine!!! Vote vote vote BIDEN!!
I hope they can all be charged with some sort of homicidal negligence. They had the opportunity to saves lives and passed.
@Diana Concepcion I am with ya! Be safe and keep strong my fellow human😊
No wonder Dunno Trump acts like a mad dog barking at everyone that moves
lol
“the biggest man you ever did see was once a baby…”
HIS NAME IS EVERYTHING,THATS WHY HE CANT BRING HIMSELF TO SELL ANY OF HIS PROPERTIES.
GOING OUT IN A BLAZE OF GORY, GETS HIS NAME IN THE HISTORY BOOKS.
As a FAILSON TRUMP.
This is an excellent psychological analysis of Donald J. Dumpsterfire.
The deepest and most introspective analysis of the inner workings of Trumps deranged mind that I have witnessed so far. And I love that Ari quoted Bob Marley at the end there. Excellent segment!
When Trump loses will see the real looters, arsonists, and killers come out to protest.
Do you people not see BLM…METHED OUT ANQUIFA FREAKS BURNING CRAP DOWN? Lmao. You people should be studied.
Ohhh so the people doing it now aren’t the “real” looters, arsonists, and killers? K
@L Y the “real” looter, arsonists, and killers are the ones doing it now and blaming it on the “real” protestors. There were such people out there with the protestors (undercover) and it all will be proven real soon.
Any stupid thing Trump tries to turn around his declining poll numbers is like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
I cant believe the crowds that attend Trump rallies. Its insane.
