'About to get even uglier': Trump gets warning of impending nightmare

A Donald Trump biographer predicted the president is going to make things worse for himself than they are now — because he doesn't know any better.

Author Michael Wolff, who spent time in the White House during Trump's first term, told The Daily Beast's "Inside Trump's Head" podcast that a number of ongoing issues were coming back into view with the end of a four-day state visit by King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

'About to get even uglier': Trump gets warning of impending nightmare

“I think he is probably feeling good about the King’s visit,” Wolff told co-host Joanna Coles. “I wonder if he knows how badly things are going for him, and I think that ... he is beginning to get an inkling of that. So then the question is: how does he respond? What does ... he do?”

“We know he doesn’t course correct, so he doubles down,” Wolff added. “So, I think that things are about to get — if possible — even uglier.”

The Iran war continues to exasperate the president and drag down the U.S. economy, despite Trump's insistence that "we've already won," and Republicans are facing the very real prospect of losing their congressional majorities in November, Wolff said.

The elderly president's health also appears to be an issue.

"The 79-year-old has chronic venous insufficiency, the White House revealed last summer, a condition common in seniors which makes it difficult for blood to return from the lower extremities to the heart," The Daily Beast reported. "The result has been swelling in Trump’s ankles."

"The president, who doesn’t exercise often and has had trouble staying awake at meetings, is also frequently seen with bruising on his right hand, which the White House attributes to frequent handshaking and his aspirin usage," the report added. "Trump has been taking a higher-than-recommended dosage for the past 25 years, he told the Wall Street Journal, because he’s superstitious."

Trump often brings up the cognitive tests he's apparently taking, boasting that he performs well on the screens for mild cognitive impairment, which he describes as measurements of his intelligence.

“I took the Exam three times during my ('THREE!') Terms as President, and ACED IT ALL THREE TIMES — An Achievement that, even on a single Exam, according to the Doctors, has rarely been done before!" Trump posted Tuesday on his Truth Social website.

The White House issued its routine statement in response to Wolff's claims.

“Michael Wolff ... has been proven to be a fraud,” White House Communications Director Steven Cheung told the Beast. “He routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”

CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October

The post CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CME Group is preparing to launch options on SOL and XRP futures next month, giving traders new ways to manage exposure to the two assets.  The contracts are set to go live on October 13, pending regulatory approval, and will come in both standard and micro sizes with expiries offered daily, monthly and quarterly. The new listings mark a major step for CME, which first brought bitcoin futures to market in 2017 and added ether contracts in 2021. Solana and XRP futures have quickly gained traction since their debut earlier this year. CME says more than 540,000 Solana contracts (worth about $22.3 billion), and 370,000 XRP contracts (worth $16.2 billion), have already been traded. Both products hit record trading activity and open interest in August. Market makers including Cumberland and FalconX plan to support the new contracts, arguing that institutional investors want hedging tools beyond bitcoin and ether. CME’s move also highlights the growing demand for regulated ways to access a broader set of digital assets. The launch, which still needs the green light from regulators, follows the end of XRP’s years-long legal fight with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. A federal court ruling in 2023 found that institutional sales of XRP violated securities laws, but programmatic exchange sales did not. The case officially closed in August 2025 after Ripple agreed to pay a $125 million fine, removing one of the biggest uncertainties hanging over the token. This is a developing story.
