CNN attacks Trump?s mental stability, fitness for office
After Trump's Twitter tantrums yesterday ? calling for the jailing of a political opponent and bragging his nuclear button is bigger than North Korea's ? CNN used its powerful platforms and people to suggest the president is mentally unstable.
The big picture: 2018 is off with a familiar bang, with the president trashing the media, and the media trashing him.

Jake Tapper started his 4 p.m. show, "The Lead": "President Trump is kicking off 2018 by going on Twitter, blasting Democrats, calling for a political opponent to be thrown in jail, demanding a potential witness be investigated, and praising himself. So, no New Year's pivot, apparently."
Brian Stelter opened his late-night media newsletter, Reliable Sources (which had the subject line "Trump's fitness"): "There's a word for this. Madness."
Stelter on "Anderson Cooper 360": "What would we say if the leader of Germany or China or Brazil posted tweets like Trump's? How would we cover it? We'd say: That person is not well. We'd wonder whether that person is fit to hold office."
And a banner on a special 10 p.m. Tapper edition asked: "ARE WE CLOSER TO NUCLEAR WAR THAN EVER?"
Tapper: "None of this [is] normal, none of this [is] acceptable, none of this [is] frankly stable behavior."

5 reasons why Donald Trump's massive North Korea gamble makes total and complete sense
Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump caught the world by surprise late Thursday with his stunning announcement that he would accept North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un's invitation to meet sometime between now and May.
Assuming that the meeting actually happens, Trump will be the first sitting president to speak with -- either in person or by phone -- a North Korean leader.
Whether you like Trump or hate him, you can't conclude anything other than this is a massive, massive gamble -- the likes of which we haven't seen from an American president, diplomatically speaking, in a very long time.
In retrospect, it actually makes perfect sense that Trump is willing to roll the dice on such a massive stage. The move to meet with Kim is actually something very close to the Platonic ideal of Trumpism.
