about

A plausible assessment of the psychological motivations behind Trump's bizarre behavior during the month of October, 2020 which was done on MSNBC by Tony Schwartz who wrote (with Trump) the book 'Art of the Deal'.

Dropped in to this commentary is part of a Puzzling Evidence remix of the song, sung by Perry Como, 'Mr. President: It Gets Lonely in the White House'. This piece also appears in our other program on Trump called 'Trump Mayhem' on a track which is here:

The interview took place on October 13th, 2020 at a time when reportedly The White House, save for Trump and a skeleton attendant staff, was largely deserted.

The track ends with a trap remix of the mournful, iconic theme from The Godfather written originally by Nino Rota and remixed by Jaydon Lewis. It was chosen because it is culturally evocative of the lonely downfall of another 'Don'.
