I think we had a confluence of issues he wanted to draw attention away from: Epstein, the Jack Smith deposition, the failing economy, and very importantly, his dementia.
I also think his every decision is being fed to him via manipulation by his keepers. This all stinks of his cabal of little psychopaths.
