How little does Donald Trump care about possibly crippling not only his own presidential candidacy but also the candidacies of Republicans running for office because he is determined to go his won way and disdain counsel?
This little: according to one Trump staffer, speaking to US News and World Report: "He's not satisfied with what he's getting. So he's basically gone rogue."

On Wednesday, pathological liar Hillary Clinton did an interview with 9News in which she rattled off fabrication after fabrication. Fortunately for Clinton, the entire media have been focused, laserlike, on Donald Trump making a complete and utter fool of himself, and so they ignored Hillary’s lies.
The interview ran nine and a half minutes.
In the first six minutes, Hillary clocked four lies:

After hyping “campaign chaos” for Donald Trump on Thursday’s NBC Today, co-host Savannah Guthrie turned to Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd and freely admitted the glaring media double standard in covering the presidential race: “And what irritates so many Republicans is that if it were any other candidate running against Hillary Clinton, this would be a pretty rough patch for Hillary Clinton given some of the items in the news.”

Donald Trump’s poll numbers across the country are collapsing. A new Fox News poll puts him down 10 points to Hillary Clinton. He’s now trailing by 9 percent in Michigan. He’s down 15 percent in New Hampshire. He’s down 11 percent in Pennsylvania.
That means it’s time for Trump supporters to find someplace to cast blame: anywhere but on themselves and their candidate. Their first choice: the #NeverTrumpers who always said Trump would be a turd tornado of a candidate, and who maintained that support for Trump would poison the conservative brand for decades to come.

The first rule of politics is: “When your opponent is self-destructing, get out of the way.” By that measure, Hillary Clinton is handling the current Trumplosian exactly right. If she wants to be president — the goal she’s worked and schemed and maneuvered for going on three decades — all she has to do is stay out of Donald Trump’s path for three months.
What has Hillary done in the last week to instigate the widening polling lead over the Manhattan real-estate mogul? Essentially nothing. She’s deployed a few surrogates; she’s played it safe; she’s avoided the press; she’s flooded the swing states with an ad questioning Trump’s character and fitness for office. She’s hid — and by staying out of the news she’s allowed her lackluster convention speech, the DNC hacking story, the Bernie Bros’ unease, and her private e-mail scandal to fade into the background. By the time the Republicans try to go back on the attack, Hillary will simply declare it all “old news.”
At this point, from a political-strategy perspective, why would Hillary even try to make any news? Moreover, why should she agree to debate Trump? (Debating Trump would give him at least some opening to reset the race, and, by complaining about the debate schedule, Trump has already cracked the door to giving Hillary a gift-wrapped excuse to pull out.)
Check out the trajectory of the race according to the RealClearPolitics average.
Fox News’s latest poll has Hillary up ten points, 49-39. CNN’s latest has Trump down nine points, 52-43. The swing-state polls are, if anything, worse for Trump: Franklin & Marshall has Trump down eleven in Pennsylvania; the Detroit News has Hillary up nine in Michigan; Suffolk University has Hillary up six in Florida; WBUR has Trump down 17 points in New Hampshire.
My antipathy for Hillary Clinton is well documented: I think she’s a terrible candidate and would be a worse president. Ideologically, I agree with her on nothing. If she were to be elected — God help us — I believe it would be my duty to oppose her on almost all policy fronts.
Nobody likes Hillary Clinton. She knows this, her campaign knows this, her advisers know this. But luckily for her — Charlie Cooke pointed out yesterday how the Clintons have a long history of being smiled upon by Lady Luck — all she has to do is stand back, hide, and watch Donald Trump set himself on fire. And then the White House is hers. God help us, indeed.
