    Why Trump Will Do Anything to Avoid Losing (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Rick Ross, 50, whose legal name is William Leonard Roberts, appeared in court Thursday morning following a Wednesday arrest on domestic violence charges. Judge Mindy Glazer gave Ross a brutal reality check, saying, “I have no idea who you are,” after attorney Bradley Horenstein asked if the rapper’s release could be “expedited,” citing his fame and concerns for his safety in jail. Glazer said Ross would be treated “just like everybody else here.” The rapper was booked into the Miam

    Nobody Knows Anything About AI—Least of All Donald Trump (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    This piece is excerpted from its original home on Substack. Get more of Michael Wolff’s unfiltered analysis by subscribing to HOWL. We all need to very quickly have an opinion about AI, because it is going to change everything— for better or worse—although pretty much nobody you know and trust can actually explain how.

His aesthetic is not just about vulgarity, but an opposing force—so of course he would build in Washington. Of course, he would look to reconfigure the White House!

    The Vultures Are Circling CNN: Wolff (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The fate of CNN, undoubtedly the world’s most famous name in news, hangs in the balance. Donald Trump, as much as anyone, continues to think that CNN is CNN. He hates it for that—and he thinks he’s using his power to kill it. To sum up the state of play as quickly as I can: David Ellison has used his father, Larry Ellison’s, money to take control of Paramount. Larry is a Trump supporter, and Trump helped push the deal through. The Ellisons’ bid for Warner Bros. Discovery (crucially, CN

    Trump Refuses to Face His Disaster Polls (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Flailing politicians sometimes try to rationalize their way around the polls, believing they have some finer gut understanding. Trump is way beyond that. He is against the popular will. The meaning of being president for Trump is simply that he can get his own way. He doesn’t believe the polls.
