Last week, Navarro said a potential deal with China "will be on President Donald J. Trump's terms. Not Wall Street's terms." Navarro, who has taken an aggressive stance toward changes in the U.S. trade relationship with China, contended that "there will be a stench around any deal that's consummated" because of Wall Street's involvement. The comments helped to sink the stock market. Kudlow told CNBC on Tuesday that Navarro "was not speaking for the president, nor was he speaking for the administration." "His remarks were way off base. They were not authorized by anybody. I actually think he did the president a great disservice," said Kudlow, the director of the National Economic Council.

Washington Monthly: “There Are Signs That Trump Is Mentally Deteriorating” JakeThomas 20 hrs The president looks to be showing signs of decompensation, possibly triggered by "fatigue, stress, illness, or old age." President Donald Trump has seemed not quite himself over the past week, and Washington Monthly’s Nancy LeTourneau believes his affect points to deteriorating mental health. She makes the following case: It is worth noticing this series of events over the last week: 1) Trump held a news conference after the midterm elections in which his affect was clearly depressed, until he engaged in a confrontation with CNN’s Jim Acosta. 2) The president traveled to Paris to take part in the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the signing of the treaty that ended WWI. He had previously cancelled his plans for a military parade, saying that he would honor the military in Paris instead. 3) On Saturday, Trump skipped the ceremony at Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in France. The White House suggested that it was because of the weather, but that didn’t stop other world leaders or Trump’s staff from attending the event. 4) The president arrived two hours late to a dinner that evening with world leaders. 5) The White House announced that the president will not attend the ASEAN or APEC summits in mid-November. 6) Monday morning brought this announcement: [iframe frameborder="0" src="https://tpc.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-31/html/container.html" id="google_ads_iframe_/88059007/theintellectualist/news_1" title="3rd party ad content" name="1-0-31;10152;<!doctype html] {"uid":2,"hostPeerName":"https://mavenroundtable.io","initialGeometry":"{\"windowCoords_t\":0,\"windowCoords_r\":1366,\"windowCoords_b\":728,\"windowCoords_l\":0,\"frameCoords_t\":1610,\"frameCoords_r\":699,\"frameCoords_b\":1660,\"frameCoords_l\":379,\"styleZIndex\":\"auto\",\"allowedExpansion_t\":516,\"allowedExpansion_r\":650,\"allowedExpansion_b\":60,\"allowedExpansion_l\":379,\"xInView\":1,\"yInView\":1}","permissions":"{\"expandByOverlay\":false,\"expandByPush\":false,\"readCookie\":false,\"writeCookie\":false}","metadata":"{\"shared\":{\"sf_ver\":\"1-0-31\",\"ck_on\":1,\"flash_ver\":\"0\"}}","reportCreativeGeometry":false,"isDifferentSourceWindow":false,"goog_safeframe_hlt":{},"inFakeDecryptionExperiment":false}" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" width="320" height="50" data-is-safeframe="true" sandbox="allow-forms allow-pointer-lock allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation" data-google-container-id="2" style="box-sizing: inherit; border-width: 0px; border-style: initial; vertical-align: bottom;">[/iframe] Philip Crowther ?@PhilipinDC Trump won't be leaving the White House today, per press office.

In medicine, decompensation is the functional deterioration of a structure or system that had been previously working with the help of allostatic compensation. Decompensation may occur due to fatigue, stress, illness, or old age. When a system is “compensated,” it is able to function despite stressors or defects. Decompensation describes an inability to compensate for these deficiencies. … At this point, it appears that the president will still attend the G20 meeting in Argentina at the end of November, where he’s expected to meet with Putin. It will be interesting to watch whether Robert Mueller releases any information before that date, which is probably what is causing the decompensation in the first place. https://mavenroundtable.io/theintellectualist/news/washington-monthly-there-are-signs-that-trump-is-mentally-deteriorating-See4RuD98Ue7dRSV4MZUpA/
