If you -- but a lot of Americans are also going to judge him. I think he's teetering on the edge because of the complacency in the past, and letting this many precious weeks pass without urgent action.
He is trying to delegitimize this election in all sorts of ways, we know that.
He is obsessed with winning re-election. It's all about self-respect. It is whether he is going to be humiliated or not.
If it is true, it's a dishonorable act and voters have to this November decide whether they want to discharge him or not.
