David Leonhardt: President Trump, just the facts

President Donald Trump has pressured a foreign leader to interfere in the 2020 U.S. presidential election.

He urged a foreign country to intervene in the 2016 presidential election.

He publicly undermined U.S. intelligence agents while standing next to a hostile foreign autocrat.

He hired a national security adviser whom he knew had secretly worked as a foreign lobbyist.

He encourages foreign leaders to enrich him and his family by staying at his hotels.

He tells new lies virtually every week — about the economy, voter fraud, even the weather.

He has aides, as well as members of his own party in Congress, who mock him behind his back as unfit for office.
