TRUMP'S UKRAINE REQUEST

It has become clear that Trump asked the president of Ukraine to provide information that could be used against Biden, which is a violation of US law and seeks foreign interference in our upcoming presidential election.I am surprised Biden is not taking maximum advantage of this development, but he is missing an opportunity to assert: "Trump is terrified of me and desperate to find a way to discredit me." Now, that would be a powerful plus for Biden, but there is more. By publicly imputing terror and desperation to Trump, he will threaten Trump with public exposure of his weakness, which he cannot bear. And this will stimulate Trump to do or say something so out of line, so disordered and irrational, as to undermine his remaining support within the Republican Party and present himself as a liability to all of its members. Trump has fooled his followers by pretending to be tough but he is actually weak and vulnerable, and will soon crack up under stress. When his illusion of strength dissolves, his followers will abandon him. When he becomes a liability to the re-election of Republicans, his party will ditch him. Remember Lao Tse's teaching that everything contains the seed of its opposite, and the pattern of the hubristic fall of the once-great illustrated in Greek Tragedy.
