More anti-Trump bloviation from Krugman, full of mischaracterizations and speculation. More and more of his columns seem to be this way, perhaps  just because he owes the NY Times a column, but has no idea what to write, thus he defaults to anti-Trump drivel which will always pass muster with the Times. Why the R-G wastes space reprinting this is the question. Perhaps they have prepaid for a certain number of Krugman's columns and so have become victims of his intellectual retirement.
