In the investment business, they say stockbrokers never get rich, because they don't believe their own BS. Trump is rich, having fun, and leading in the polls. So maybe he does believe his own BS. In any event, he has become, in the words of Eugene Robinson of The Washington Post, “A farce to be

Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu's paid and volunteer hysterics, who claim the end will be near if the Iran Deal passes, have been temporarily driven to the sidelines by the media's fascination with all things Trump. Not to worry. They're coming back. Expect the richly-financed Iran Deal opponents to go into Armageddon Overdrive as we get closer
