On the Fake Campaign Trail

McKay Coppins goes on “the fake campaign trail” with Donald Trump.

“The notion that he is simply too big — too presidential — for a measly job in the Albany Statehouse has temporarily quelled his insecurity. But after this morning, Trump can no longer escape the fact that his political ‘career’ — a long con that the blustery billionaire has perpetrated on the country for 25 years by repeatedly pretending to consider various runs for office, only to bail out after generating hundreds of headlines — finally appears to be on the brink of collapse.”

“The reason: Nobody seems to believe him anymore.”

A Trump aide told The Wrap that the interview was “dishonest and unfair” and that Trump was “totally unfazed by this article.”
