Donald Trump is secluding himself in the private dining room of the White House, surrounded by confidants, screens, and piles of printed articles, as fears of losing Congress grow. Republicans are distancing themselves, advisers are warning, and the president refuses to believe the polls. A gloomy and deeply anxious atmosphere prevails in the White House over the loss of control in Washington. Trump promotes actions against illegal immigrants and directs the Justice Department to act against his rivals. During the election campaign, he complains about the great effort he is investing, taunts Barack Obama, and boasts about the size of the crowds at his rallies compared to his deputy, JD Vance. White House press secretary Daniel Alvarez dismissed claims of tension and emphasized that the president and his deputy work harder than anyone. The report also reveals Trump's great sensitivity to criticism: after comedian Bill Maher mocked him and mentioned his ties with Jeffrey Epstein, Trump seethed with rage and dictated a furious post of about 1,300 words to his social network.
