    I did a search to see if this was a new donuts quote or the same one from a few days ago, and not only is it a new one, it’s been happening for a year now?

    https://archive.ph/FjRZn “Donald Trump’s New Campaign Talking Point: Save the Donuts” (Daily Beast, November 2023)

    One Trump adviser told The Daily Beast that they had no idea where Trump had picked up the donut line. They didn’t even want to speculate, instead saying in a defeated manner, “I have no idea.”

      He doesn’t look good. Had someone in Cardiology yesterday, out of nowhere, shoot a frown at me and whisper, what do you think about the way trump is looking?

      Like if you lifted his pants legs, my 7 is there’s bilateral pitting edema under there. Kind of like watching Nimoy in those final roles, seeing the COPD across that barrel chest, and wondering how far out of frame the oxygen tank actually is. It’s morbid to some, I’m sure, and that’s fair, but I am worried.

      I’m convinced that the makeup is the same, he’s just become that much paler beneath the makeup.

          At base I’m not happy about anyone’s medical misfortunes, self inflicted or otherwise.

          You could also read it as his health is worrisome. You could also read it as his base’s reaction would be worrisome.

          Don’t assume puppies and rainbows. Remember Scalia.

          Trump dying now would be an unthinkable tragedy. He would forever be a martyr and we would never be rid of MAGA. FFS, there would be Trump statues everywhere. Oh, and think about all the conspiracies involving liberals killing him.

          He has to live through this election and lose ignominiously. Then he has my permission to die.

          I think they were trying to hit a predicted word (likely “bet”) above the “7” on their keyboard.

            I understand now, but this is the first and only time I’ve ever heard it. I wouldn’t expect most people to catch your meaning.

      The cringe is palpable. These might be bigots but even then I feel sorry for whoever has to be next to such a clusterfuck in person. For a moment. The I remember these people want to elect him and I feel better about their suffering. May it open their fucking eyes.

        That’s gracious of you.

        I’m leaning at a right angle toward schadenfreude, watching a redneck at a barbecue who’s been pouring gasoline on his charcoal briquettes for the past 8 years about to spark his lighter.

      How does he not have a makeup artist on staff to make him look at least slightly less fucked up? It’s weird that they’ve actually normalized his hair lately but can’t seem to get the weird bronzer over all of his face.

      If it were revealed that he’s actually an AI-driven hologram at this point, I wouldn’t be even slightly surprised.

        there’s probably only one or two wranglers he allows nearly enough to paint him or he throws some kind of crazy fit.

        he might really be losing it, fingers crossed.

      Nah. His true calling was drag. The bitchiness. The mincing hand gestures. The wigs. If only he’d gotten over himself and donned the ballgown.

    Sort of disappointed with Kamala campaign. It’s 90% of saying how Trump is a moron (which is still true), 9% repetitive buzz words, 1% embarrassing herself while being asked on economy, also suggesting communism as the way moving forward.

    Yet despite all this, because American elections are rigged and follow a nonsensical, non democratic system; he is favored to win by over 20 points. lol what a shithole country.

      Favored by 20 points by whom? Everything I’m seeing has trump at best neck and neck.

            The only thing close to 20 point spread is betting odds, which are probably less reliable than polling, which says they’re neck and neck. So we’ll see.

      20 electoral votes maybe. But not the popular vote, and no way by 20 points

        You’re forgetting about the quiet undermining of the election across many states and the supreme court who will ultimately decide this election (for trump)
