got a demagogue in public office who gets desperate, who gets cornered. I'm really worried now about what he will turn to next to try and save himself."
This was on Andrea Mitchell this morning 4/23/20 - Kristol (former GOP strategist/analyst) was referring to trump's failures this week: immigration, Iran, covid-19 response, Kemp fiasco, polls, etc.
Andrea Mitchell responded with: "A fair warning."

Bill Kristol and other former GOP members seem to have a unique insight into the workings of trump's thinking.
