CNN presidential historian Douglas Brinkley has been unhinged in offering deranged meltdowns before, but this one during Friday’s At This Hour was perhaps his worst. Whining about the lack of “climate activism” from the Trump administration, Brinkley bemoaned President Trump’s “embarrassing” G-20 trip leading to “a shrinking of American prestige.”

Brinkley was teed up by fill-in host Ana Cabrera, who read a Trump tweet about the G-20 Summit and John Podesta’s hacked e-mail server. She wondered if Brinkley agreed with her that it seems “a little juvenile” on Trump’s part.
