Been feeling pretty sick the last few days, but I can't say my health improved by reading Trump's "interview" with the NYTimes. As Charlie Pierce notes, this is the exposure of a man in cognitive decline. Trump was never a smart man, but he is now a stupid man in serious cognitive decline.
As Ezra Klein points out, Trump also manifests the Dunning-Kruger effect, where the least competent people often feel they are the most competent. You simply don't know what you don't know.
In either case, Donald Trump - left to his own words and devices - incriminates himself at every step.
And it's still not enough to get Republicans to put country over party.
