Trump has suffered major losses recently — in both federal courts and the court of public opinion. It's why he lashes out at the media, spreads lies, attacks his political enemies, and tries to rig elections. These are the actions of a tyrant with his back against the wall.

Congressman Jerry Nadler would more than likely have been reelected to an 18th full term in Congress. He's long had the support and confidence of NYC voters. Instead, he's passing the torch and doing his part to center and strengthen the next generation of Democratic leadership. (thread)
