Trumpz a cunt who lies as freely as people breàth.
He has dropped out (and has endorsed trump).If RFK does drop out by the end of the week as rumoured, Trump's going to find himself in the lead again isn't he.

Hope that doesn't put trump back in the lead
In fairness, New York's probably seen a lot weirder over the years...the guy who dropped a dead bear on a road in the middle of a city becuase it would be funny?
"weird".

The thing is this could be such a powerful gotcha, but in the world of fast moving stimulation it’s a quick laugh and then buried. Even trump would pick it up for a second then drop it, raising an eyebrow then forgetting it. Nothjng seems to have weight or depth, everything just skims along. 20 years ago that would have been discussed for weeks the fact that a potential president had scored such an own goal comment. When all there is is noise then there’s no noise at all.

Why does he keep going on about Marxists?
It seems surprising to me that Trump isn't constantly harping on about 'They tried to kill me' (that all-purpose Trump 'they' which leaves who 'they' refers to entirely to the imagination of his audience). The man loves to be a victim and he's literally had the closest brush to victimhood one can have, but he's not trying to capitalise from it.
Probably is, we just don't get the wall-to-wall coverage over here.It seems surprising to me that Trump isn't constantly harping on about 'They tried to kill me' (that all-purpose Trump 'they' which leaves who 'they' refers to entirely to the imagination of his audience).

If the would-be assassin had been a lefty instead of being a right-wing nutball, we would never hear the end of it. Not just from him but also from the odious scumbags who prop him up and amplify his messaging both within Congress and across the airwaves...The thin-skinned fool probably can't come to terms with the idea that someone doesn't like him let alone dislikes him enough to want to kill him. It goes against his narcissistic 'People love me, EVERYONE loves me, everyone says I'm the best' mantra.
I have wondered if that might be the case, yeahProbably is, we just don't get the wall-to-wall coverage over here.
I'm surprised Trunp hasn't got wall-to-plexiglass coverageProbably is, we just don't get the wall-to-wall coverage over here.
Isn’t the loony take that he was some sort of CIA plant working on behalf of the deep state?If the would-be assassin had been a lefty instead of being a right-wing nutball, we would never hear the end of it.

Fancy stuff compared to the beer hallNow, this is totally weird!!
Trump’s Outrageous January 6 Gala Is a Giant Flashing Warning Sign
Donald Trump is hosting a fundraiser for the insurrectionists who tried to kill democracy on January 6.newrepublic.com
Donald Trump has taken January 6 denialism to a new level: He’s going to be hosting an awards ceremony dedicated to the Capitol riot.
On September 5, a “J6 Awards Gala” will be held at Trump’s golf club in Bedminister, New Jersey. The event will include a raffle to win a plaque recognizing the “Justice For All” song performed by Trump and the “J6 Prison Choir,” which briefly reached the Billboard Music Chart. The choir is made up of defendants serving prison sentences for their actions in the Capitol in 2021.
Trump is scheduled as a guest speaker, as is his former lawyer and indicted co-defendant Rudy Giuliani. A separate flier for the event notes that tickets range from $2,500 for an individual to $50,000 for a table for 12.
“We gather to pay tribute not only to these individuals but to all J6 defendants who have shown incredible courage and sacrifice,” the event description states.
In a promotional video for the event, Trump calls the rioters “peaceful” and “hostages,” and adds that “there have never been people treated more horrifically than J6 hostages.”
The link is the poster for his event.
We all know how important crowd size is to Donald Trump. That’s why liberals and Democrats enjoy sharing video clips on social media of his campaign rallies in which there appear to be lots of empty seats. But I think liberals and Democrats are missing the forest for the trees. Crowd size is not as important as crowd interest. The question isn’t whether they’re coming. It’s whether they’re staying. They aren’t.
About 7,000-8,000 people attended Trump’s rally on Friday in eastern Pennsylvania, according to Mary Wheeler. Another reporter at the venue (for the New York Post) said it can hold around 10,000. About an hour into Trump’s speechifying, however, attendees started heading for the exits, according to USA Today reporter Zac Anderson. “Looks like people are starting to trickle out of the Wilkes-Barre Trump rally as he goes past the hour mark. There appears to be more empty seats.”
This is important to say. The conventional wisdom among Republicans, former Republicans and the reporters who reflect their views is that Trump must stop playing the role of showman to win over indie voters, especially white women. He must stop saying things like he’s much better looking than Kamala Harris. (Yes, he said that.) They say he needs to stick to policy. “Trump doesn’t seem to be making a serious effort,” Charlie Dent, a former GOP congressman, told The Financial Times. “The focus is still all about maga [Make America Great Again]. But I’m sceptical that the maga base will be large enough to win.”
But the conventional wisdom among Republicans seems misguided. He’s already stopped playing that role of showman. Indeed, he may no longer be capable of playing it again. Something is very wrong with him. He’s habitually incoherent. His press conferences usually devolve into a word salad so impenetrable it’s like a foreign language. Bloomberg’s Tim O’Brien has said he’s not well. Point is: A showman never loses his audience. But Donald Trump appears to be losing his.
Crowd interest, more than crowd size, is worth our attention, because it tells us rallygoers are seeing something that the rest of us are not. I suspect what they are seeing, though perhaps without knowing it, is that Trump can’t communicate anymore. He talks and he talks, to be sure, but it’s not talking that makes any kind of sense. It’s gibberish, and gibberish never persuaded anyone to do anything. It can’t even persuade Trump voters to stay in their seats. Too many people are spending too much time parsing the meaning of this or that remark. Rallygoers aren’t bothering, though. They are telling us the truth.
Former president Donald Trump suggested Sunday evening that he might skip a Sept. 10 ABC News debate with Vice President Kamala Harris (D), after agreeing to participate as the GOP presidential nominee earlier this month.
“I watched ABC FAKE NEWS this morning, both lightweight reporter Jonathan Carl’s (K?) ridiculous and biased interview of Tom Cotton (who was fantastic!), and their so-called Panel of Trump Haters, and I ask, why would I do the Debate against Kamala Harris on that network?” Trump asked in a social media post Sunday evening.
The Sept. 10 debate is the only one that both campaigns have officially committed to with a network. Trump’s renewed questioning of the ABC News debate comes as Harris has increased her lead in national polls and is gaining ground in key Midwestern swing states. As of Sunday, The Washington Post polling average has the vice president leading in Wisconsin by three points, in Pennsylvania by two points and in Michigan by less than one point. Trump continues to lead in the Sun Belt states, but Harris has significantly narrowed the gap.
