As we head towards November 4, and the US elections, every day serves as a reminder of just how unfit for office Donald Trump is.

It’s tough to round up everything he’s done in the past week, let alone the duration of the past four years.

At the same time, we’re travelling back in time.

Trump is returning to old tactics, like ‘birther lies’ about Joe Biden’s running mate Senator Kamala Harris. You might recall that Trump was very vocal about his theories that former President Barack Obama wasn’t a natural-born citizen of the US back in 2008.

In another strange turn of events, things have come full circle, back to the early years of his presidency, when ‘grab them by the p***y’ and golden showers were the scandals that everyone thought would be the end of his reign.

The golden showers have resurfaced in Trump’s former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen’s upcoming book, Disloyal: A Memoir.

According to CNBC, the book will also include a look at actions that include a backchannel to Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

Cohen in the foreword says that “Trump had colluded with the Russians, but not in the sophisticated ways imagined by his detractors” and “cheated in the election, with Russian connivance, as you will discover in these pages, because doing anything — and I mean anything — to ‘win’ has always been his business model and way of life.”

…“From golden showers in a sex club in Vegas, to tax fraud, to deals with corrupt officials from the former Soviet Union, to catch and kill conspiracies to silence Trump’s clandestine lovers, I wasn’t just a witness to the president’s rise — I was an active and eager participant.”

He calls Trump a “cheat, a liar, a fraud, a bully, a racist, a predator, a con man”.

The Daily Mail with more on the alleged golden shower:

The mention of him witnessing golden showers brings a reminder to the Steele Dossier, which claims Russian President Vladimir Putin has blackmail on Trump from the time he was in Moscow for the Miss Universe pageant in 2013 and allegedly watched prostitutes urinate on a bed because it had been slept in by the Obama. Trump has denied the claim repeatedly.

However Cohen says the golden showers incident was in Las Vegas – suggesting he might be referring to a trip with Trump to a club there called The Act whose repertoire included stimulated urination by performers on stage. Trump did a deal at the club to take his Miss Universe competition to Moscow, a previous book by investigative journalists revealed.

Cohen announced the book via Twitter:

The day has finally arrived. I have waited a long time to share my truth. To read the foreword and pre-order my book DISLOYAL, visit https://t.co/Va4Rt0Zear

He alleges that during the presidential campaign, Trump was pursuing a major real estate deal in Moscow.

“I know because I personally ran that deal and kept Trump and his children closely informed of all updates, even as the candidate blatantly lied to the American people saying, ‘there’s no Russian collusion, I have no dealings with Russia … there’s no Russia.”

The plan is to publish the book before November. While Cohen isn’t exactly an upstanding citizen himself, he cooperated with federal and state prosecutors in investigations of the president – hence the title of the book: Disloyal.

The White House has called the book “fan fiction”.

Spokesman Brian Morgenstern said Cohen “readily admits to lying routinely but expects people to believe him now so that he can make money from book sales. It’s unfortunate that the media is exploiting this sad and desperate man to attack President Trump.”

So the same refrain used to cover up all Trump’s misdeeds.

One more thing:

Person, woman, man, camera, TV…

Yeah, we’ve still got it.
