Ty Cobb - He’s The
Worst In Our History
Ty
Cobb - former Trump White House Lawyer
Aug 13, 2025
Former Trump White House Lawyer, Ty Cobb, has written about his former boss, calling him ‘worse than anyone in our history in my experience and opinion.’ Read between the lines below:
Trump is worse than anyone in our history in my
experience and opinion. As people seem to have forgotten, I was very critical
of Biden and despite knowing him and his family well, I spent 4 years writing
about his cognitive decline and weak foreign policy. He had competent advisors
though including very decent men as AG and head of the FBI.
While you could fairly question their effectiveness you
couldn’t doubt their character. Trump has real contempt for the country,
appoints wholly unqualified people to key positions and just kicked 12 million
people off Medicaid, eliminated child food support and killed worldwide
healthcare efforts monitoring pandemic producing diseases including Ebola
(among countless other dangerous things).
His tariffs, like his bibles, crypto and extortion of
colleges and media companies and his efforts to rewrite history, are purely
personal, corrupt and have zero policy based support. They are just exercises
in the power he craves so intensely. He has and will continue to damage our
economy and the world’s, and our culture, until and unless he is stopped.
Fortunately, the courts have shut down his
Constitutional overreach in over 180 cases—96% of the cases he has brought or
defended in the last six months—but without Congress, which has been neutered
by its collective cowardice, the tide cannot turn completely. We are more
vulnerable economically and on national security than ever before in history as
he and Hegseth have rendered the military unprepared by eliminating the
majority of its most experienced and enlightened leaders.
Healthcare is in the toilet under RFK JR and many
diseases are or soon will be on the rise due to the elimination of vaccines and
the defunding of the sciences which made our energy, environment and healthcare
the envy of the world. And, finally his Bible and crypto grifts to name a few
are pure greed. His net worth is up over $3 billion since taking office 6
months ago.
No one has ever seen corruption at this level by a
President. Most of these actions have been pure exercises in power and greed
and have no guiding principle beyond self interest and vengeance. Competence,
leadership, science, and the rule of law which historically distinguished us
from petty dictatorships have all been abandoned or curtailed to serve his ego
and narcissism. His narcissism is so real and so extreme it dominates and is at
the heart of everything he does and always has been.
We can only hope the norms he has broken and the damage
already done to us economically and to our stature in the world (where we have
gone from the beacon of liberty to isolated bully in just months) can be
restored perhaps in a generation and that the damage yet to come will be less
severe but the country is in real trouble and sadly the weakest among us will
feel it the worst. Moreover, the cognitive decline we saw in Biden is very real
with Trump as well. His us versus them approach to Americans has been more
divisive than any prior President.
Just yesterday he announced how much he “hates” all
Democrats. “Hate” worked for Hitler, briefly, but no one considers it a
leadership trait. His racism is palpable. The country needs new leaders with
character and I don’t care if they are Republicans or Democrats, never have.
Just want someone honest, principled, intelligent and compassionate who can
unite us.
Trump in my experience is none of those things.
This is what I believe and why I am engaged. I could of
course be tilting at windmills but don’t really have much choice if I want to
sleep at night given the stakes as I see them.
