Expect more of this. Photo: Bill O’Leary/The Washington Post/Getty Images Most weeks, New York Magazine writer-at-large Frank Rich speaks with contributor Alex Carp about the biggest stories in politics and culture. Today, what to make of Trump’s increasingly erratic behavior, Joe Biden’s gaffes, and a conservative resistance in the U.K.
Of course Sharpiegate is only one offering in the past week or so’s 24/7 repertory of White House Looney Tunes. Not even another mass killing in Texas could distract our president from a public feud with his long-ago fellow NBC primetime star Debra Messing, of Will & Grace. There’s also the bagatelle of his tweeting out a classified surveillance photo of an Iranian missile site, yet another in an endless series of moves to undermine American intelligence agencies.
The persistence of Biden’s polling lead over the Democratic field may most of all be a reflection of a simple mathematical fact: For now, the party’s progressive base is divided between two runners-up, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. But it also should be noted that Trump has given Biden and, for that matter, all of his adversaries a gift. He has defined deviancy down so low that most, if not all, of the political pratfalls that used to be called “gaffes” barely register.
Nothing, apparently. With the sole exception of a single Michigan congressman, Justin Amash, current Republican officeholders, even those who purport to be occasional critics, have refused to challenge Trump even as children are put in cages and top administration jobs have been routinely handed out to grifters, bigots, and perpetrators of sexual assault.
