NWJ929- Is Trump Losing His Mind?

In this episode of No Way, Jose!, host Jose Galison reads through Time’s three-part piece “What Trump Has Built”—the historical setup on Trump’s relationship with the magazine, the full interview transcript, and the fact-check list—while offering light, irreverent commentary in his usual cynical style. The piece has drawn notoriety as supposed proof that Trump is losing his mind, but Galison treats it more as a case of remarkable cope: confident rewriting of recent history and rhetoric that doesn’t line up with the record. It also reads as a somewhat flaccid campaign effort with midterms approaching and looking like a potential blue wave.

What the episode tracks is the broader atmosphere the interview sits inside. An AI economic boom is being sold even as the same industry figures demand regulation to socialize the losses, pairing warnings of AI demons and apocalypse with claims of inevitable exponential growth. The ongoing Iran crisis, the Epstein files still in the background, and the prospect of Democrats cleaning house on corruption all hover around the edges. The result is less a verdict on anyone’s mental state and more a window into how the story keeps getting told anyway.
