— This morning, on CNBC, Donald Trump — who agreed to the moderators for the upcoming debates, and even spoke positively of them (“I like them, I respect them”) — is now saying that they will treat him unfairly, that the debates are “rigged,” and that they should have no moderators.
— Yesterday, video resurfaced of Trump bragging that his building became the tallest building in Manhattan after the World Trade Center went down. He bragged about that as the World Trade Center was smoldering.

— In the wake of Hillary Clinton’s pneumonia, Donald Trump announced that he took a physical, and that he’d be releasing his results on … Dr. Oz. He also basically said that, if the results were not good, he would not release results from his physical.

— Trump suggested this morning that Obama is forcing the Fed — an organization independent of the Presidency — to hold down interest rates until a new President is sworn in, and that Janet Yellen should be “ashamed of herself.”
Trump's comment on the Fed is exactly why the market will tank if he is elected. Ask him if he understands how the Fed works @cnbc

— Trump called Elizabeth Warren Pocahontas again this morning.
How is ok for Trump to keep calling @elizabethforma Pocahontas? Would it be ok if Trump referred to @POTUS as Toby? 🤔

We are REALLY not talking enough about Trump taking $20,000 in charity money to buy a 6-foot painting of himself: https://t.co/OzL08hmKgz

— Speaking of charity, The Washington Post ran a story this weekend that’s been largely ignored about how Trump uses only other people’s money to give to charity, but Trump always takes credit for it. It’s a huge story. No one cares.
