Maggie Haberman is right. Thats the four-word summary of a report from National Reviews Charles Cooke on the news this week that ex-president Donald Trump is operating under the delusion that he will be reinstated to office this summer.
Yes, delusion is the correct word. So is report. Cookes piece is not an op-ed and youll note no opinion tag above on ours, either. Because it is a fact that Trump wont be reinstated to office. His belief otherwise is delusional. Or apocalyptic to democracy, take your pick.
Charles Cookes conservative bona fides are not in question, nor should that be pertinent, except to say that it creates the journalism equivalent of a bipartisan consensus. A nice structure for the facts, from a political standpoint, but does not change the facts.
The other facts from Habermans reporting that Cooke confirms in his article are the depth and extent of the delusion and the appropriateness of the word operating above. Because it is not merely a thought but a mission that Trump and his operation are undertaking.
