Is Trump losing his mind?

Season 1 · Episode 22

Friday, September 6, 2024 • Duration 01:03:49

In this week's deep dive into the US presidential election, we examine why Donald Trump’s cognitive abilities and decline are receiving less scrutiny than Joe Biden’s did – and whether people are finally recognizing the former president’s deteriorating communication skills. Join us as Erin Griffith from The New York Times sheds light on Elon Musk's influence on politics and the increasing involvement of Silicon Valley billionaires in political affairs. We also cover the latest polling updates and explore serious allegations of Russian interference through the alleged funding of right-wing commentators. Nikki McCann Ramírez of Rolling Stone, Jacob Jarvis, and Chris Jones discuss the most pressing issues in American politics, and dabble in a minor cognitive test of their own – and even recite some Trump speeches… We're also on Youtube – watch here.
