Instead, The *New York Times *ran this headline: “Trump Tries to Wrestle Back Attention at Mar-a-Lago News Conference.” The *Washington Post *said: “Trump Holds Meandering News Conference, Where He Agrees to Debate Harris.” The British paper *The Independent *got closer with: “Trump Holds Seemingly Pointless Press Conference Filled With False Claims,” but CNNwent with “Trump Attacks Harris and Walz During First News Conference Since Democratic Ticket Was Announced.”

All of these headlines are technically true, but they miss the point: The Republican nominee, the man who could return to office and regain the sole authority to use American nuclear weapons, is a serial liar and can’t tell the difference between reality and fantasy.

Donald Trump is not well. He is not stable. There’s something deeply wrong with him.

Any of those would have been important—and accurate—headlines.
