How Trump's Mental Un-Fitness is Normalized by the Media
Over and over, the media and US politicians fail to convey just how dangerous and deranged Donald Trump really is. To break it down, Mehdi Hasan is joined for a fascinating conversation by one of one of Trump’s loudest critics in DC: esteemed lawyer, former Republican, and The Lincoln Project co-founder George Conway.

“There is just a rotten core in there,” Conway says of Trump. “He’s truly evil, and from a psychological standpoint, he’s a narcissistic sociopath… People do manipulate him, but you can’t control him. And in the end, the bad instincts always win out and they get worse.”
