Nothing more to add, really; I just saw that headline via Tiedrich and found it notable that someone’s willing to put the obvious into a headline.
Of course it’s been plain as day for years that Donald largely lives in his own mostly-irrational reality. Many of us have been talking about it. But the media’s kid glove norms about sanewashing have prevented them from stating it. So it’s good to see this headline in a major British publication.

PS: Feel free to use this as an open thread about sanewashing. It feels like there should be more stories with the SaneWashing DKos tag, but crowdsourced tagging is an imperfect art. Margaret Sullivan has been terrific about criticizing the mass media. (Jay Rosen, please come back in the public eye! We need you!)
