When dementia strikes a tiny mind.
“Ms. Harris your time is up, Mr. Trump, how do you respond?” “I’ll get a large chocolate shake, a 20 box of nuggets, uh… a fish delight, and a large fries”
If you actually believe for a second we’ll have that debate, I have a lovely bridge connecting Crimea to Novorossiysk that I can let you have an absolute bargain, Brand new, never used, it’s perfect for the middle-class professional on the go!
There are hundreds of party operatives right now desperately trying to find a way to get him to think he’ll look stronger if he turns down the debate. The closer we get, the more excuses he’ll spit out.
I’d take that bet. Trump is stupid enough to think he can walk in and steamroll Harris because she’s a woman and a person of color. I would be VERY surprised if his team could convince him to bail, regardless of whatever reason they can come up with.
Eh I think Trump himself thinks he wants it, plus to be on TV with someone actually popular to try and show them up which he’s already convinced himself he can do. Overall it seems like a coin toss, he doesn’t have the best aides to hold him back these days and he can’t turn down a TV camera.
Does his narcissism win or does logic win? That’s the question you want to think about for the president of the country with the largest military force in the world heh, time for a drink.

Plenty of people were confident that he wouldn’t agree to the first debate muting the mics.
Many more proclaimed that he wouldn’t even show up for that first debate.
I’ve given up trying to predict what Trump might do next.
I’m sure his people told him and he just didn’t listen, like how he didn’t even read his daily briefs when he was in office. Or maybe they’ve all realized he never listens anyway so no one bothers anymore.
Some people call him a stable genious. He passed a cognitive test don’t you know. Man, Woman, TV, Camera, Lights.
At this rate, in 2 months his campaign slogan will be ‘meep’
Some people call him a stable genious.
Some call him the gangster of dumb
I had to verify myself. It’s even more batshit with more context. After that the bing bongs and weird gesticulations he says “you know what that is, right?” wtf no we have no idea wtf that is lmao
Oh man, that video was a painful watch. He then immediately switched to directly calling Kamala a communist and a Marxist. It is absolutely insane that there aren’t more people walking out on him when he insults his audience’s intelligence like that.
It’s hilarious how out of touch Republican rhetoric is becoming considering there are a sizeable number of Democrats who think the party leadership and people like Harris, Biden, and Clinton are essentially right-wing politicians at this point.
Calling them communists or socialists is quite the joke when they’d be more than happy to bail out corporations, protect predatory businesses, or pass draconian laws at the expense of the populace.
It’s also fun to take the wind of out of the sails of far-right individuals online by pointing this out when they rant about the “socialist, communist, Marxists” running for office.
Is it really an insult when it’s an honest and accurate statement, though?
Harris is a Marxist?
If you find an actual Marxist that doesn’t despise Harris’ positions, let me know.
Whilst harris is closer to marx than trump, she is still in safe distance from communism.
My mindset is that these people were tricked, and fell in far too deep. It’s like sunk cost fallacy: "I can’t say I’m wrong now, I’ve been the laughingstock of the family for 8 years! This time I’ll show 'em!
Eh I think it’s actually a little more sinister than that, I perceive a lot of these people as victims of a new type of cold war - cyber warfare including propaganda and election interference. Many of them have visible or otherwise obvious disabilities, genuinely. That they lack certain cognitive skills is exactly why they fell victim to this. And then once those people, the easy marks, started flocking there, all the other predators came after them too. It’s kinda sickening. Disabled people are one of the most abused groups of people along with children and the elderly.
Everyone deserves a vote and deserves to go to town halls and other campaign events. However there should really be something done about predatory practices done by campaigns and people who attend campaign events. They aren’t supposed to be there to sell books, they’re supposed to be earning votes and proposing policy. Anything aside from that should be scrutinized at minimum.
You just can’t find good help these days after surrounding yourself with yes-men, repeatedly firing your staff, implicating them in your crimes, insulting and harassing them, and spending all week golfing and eating cheeseburgers instead of preparing for campaign events.
