BIDEN: Donald Trump wants to win the election NYT FACT CHECK: There’s no evidence to support this claim. The reality of consciousness has never been proved by philosophers, and therefore the other minds problem is only the first of the logical abysses barring us from any true description of desire

To be fair, he did pick JD Vance, which mitigates against your "wants to win" theory.

This is correct, and opinion editor Sextus Empiricus agrees with it but won't tell you so because in public he suspends judgment.

Yeah. Surely. NYT can spread such shit, because people would actually believe anything they say. Confuse & lie; brainwash 102. 101 is trump & FoxBullshitNews.

His billionaire backers in the military industry and oil industry will pay him handsomely if he wins. He wants the money not to lead the nation.

According to philosopher Rene Girard, Trump has only wanted to win as a function of memetic desire. Observing others winning the presidency, and thus driving him to into conflict with his now rivals. Joe Biden could be cast out as a ritualized scapegoat, which could restore peace to the community.
