One month ago, former President Donald Trump seemed poised to retake the White House from an ailing President Joe Biden. Now that he’s falling behind Vice President Kamala Harris, people close to Trump’s campaign are complaining to Vanity Fair that the GOP nominee is only making matters worse. “It’s like he’s choosing to lose,” one of them vented.
Is he acting weirder than normal? I honestly can’t tell the difference.
Yeah, I’ve really been surprised by the amount of negative press on Trump. He seems like himself to me.
The contrast with a fully functioning non-geriatric campaign really brings to light just how shitty Trump is. Not that it wasn’t obvious before but I guess louder for those in the back?
And how completely lost Biden was.
along these lines people are saying his incoherence indicates dementia - I dunno, since the first moment I ever heard of trump to 2016 to today - he’s just fucking dumb. He’s dumber than a bag of hammers. A box of rocks has more nuance, and a bag of shit more character, but most of all, he’s just an idiot who’s coasted through life on daddy’s money and a toolbox of racism and contractor fuckin.
And I’m still astounded at the people he took in. Fuck, he’s just so fucking dumb.
The AP news coverage of his press conference today was just a list of a dozen things he lied about, with a few paragraphs explaining each thing. It was a very journalism-like piece of writing.
What?!?! Where’s my outrage?!?!?!?
Those are contradictory statements…
If I was less acceptably sane, I might think there was some sort of coordinated effort by the real Powers That Be to ensure that he does not become the next president, potentially starting with the assassination attempt, then moving to plan B by pushing Biden out so Harris takes over, and now funneling loads of positive media attention towards Harris and negative attention towards Trump when he is essentially behaving the same as he always has.
Of course, like I said, I’m too sane to believe that…right?
Apart from the assassination attempt, the rest might be more simply explained by the existence of an opposing campaign attempting to defeat him.
apparently not
