Donald Trump spills to Bob Woodward and only strengthens the case against his reelection

Donald Trump keeps piling up the evidence that he has neither the smarts nor the character to be president of the United States. He's "in over his head," as former first lady Michelle Obama put it, and he has "no moral compass," as former Defense Secretary James Mattis was quoted in Bob Woodward's new book, "Rage." Exhibit A is the president's fumbled response to a coronavirus pandemic that has killed nearly 192,000 Americans.

It is hard to argue with Obama and Mattis after the latest political contretemps over his recorded comments to Woodward.
