The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman on Thursday highlighted what’s stood out to her about former president and current GOP nominee Donald Trump in the final days of the 2024 election.
Trump is “more incoherent, more rambling,” using “darker” language, “seems angrier” and is “more than a little” focused “on talking openly about revenge than he was earlier this year,” Haberman told CNN’s Anderson Cooper.
That talk of vengeance is, what Haberman said: “I am struck by, especially as a closing message.”
Trump has stepped up his authoritarian rhetoric and threats to political opponents in recent weeks, calling them “enemies from within” and more.
But, overall, Haberman, who has reported on Trump for years, earlier suggested there wasn’t “some marked huge difference” in who Trump was during his first campaign in 2016 “as to who he is now.”
