Trump loves to tell a lie that he thinks will be picked up as the truth by the media. Sadly, this has too often been the case (looking at YOU New York Times — be ashamed).

But these days, “I have agreed to a debate” and “I hear there’s a big movement to bring back crooked Joe” are just not getting the traction he thought they would. The media seems to be getting wise.

America is tired of slurry-voiced Trump croaking out the same old lies and lunacy they’ve heard ten thousand times before. Time to wear this "Kamala removes stubborn orange stains" t-shirt everyday until Election Day 👇 🤣

We’re NOT going back. We’re going FORWARD!

My biggest fear now is Trump pulls a Hitler and kills himself in his bunker (the one just off the 8th hole fairway, no doubt).

We have GOT to see him tried and held accountable for his crimes. We have GOT to show his cultists that there ARE indeed consequences and the days of free passes for fascists are over. And if Trump dies before he can be tried, in ALL of his trials, all that just ends, unresolved.

No I don’t see him killing himself, too selfish. I see him dying of a heart attack or stroke. All the evil he has done will catch up to him and he will be overcome with guilt. Can you imagine how many women and children he has destroyed. How many people he has cheated and defrauded. He never was smart, ever. I wonder all the people that accepted money from his father to carry him through his life, feel anything like sorrow or sadness. I once felt sorry for his children, especially Tiffany, they are not close to each other and that is sad. When he dies and he will soon, they can bury him next to his wife on the golf course. Oh what a wicked web we weave when we practice to deceive.

“All the evil he has done will catch up to him and he will be overcome with guilt.”

Oh, please. That’s utter bullshit.

Trump will NEVER feel guilt. Nothing he’s ever said or done in his entire life suggests he’s capable of it, so don’t suggest it would cause his end. Held to account for his crimes he’ll feel unfairly treated, never guilt. Did you not see/hear how he reacted during his entire trial in NY?

The man is incapable of acknowledging he’s ever done anything wrong. No matter what he’s done, no matter how many widows and orphans he’s ruined, he always and only sees himself as the victim.

I've already noticed the mainstream media backlash after that boffo three-speech event yesterday, as Shapiro, Harris and Walz hit it out of the park. This morning, NYT, ABC, and CNN all led coverage with big, dark, bleak, and damning headlines about Harris's choice likely backfiring, Walz screwing up COVID in his state, and Shapiro's AG office bumbling a murder investigation. Still researching the validity of the former two while the fist one us utter nonsense. This appears to be the mainstream media seeing a dead horse in their covered horse race and applying a shot of adrenaline into the carcass. On all three platforms, Trump/Pence coverage centered around their valiant efforts to fight back. I tuned out CBS this week, but last week they were just as bad.

Speaking of VPs I’ve got a fun game for you to play to prove your USPolitics nerddom

Going back election by election see how far you can get before getting to an election where you can’t remember the losing VP candidate

I just did it and got to 1988 (and still annoyed so myself for forgetting who was the running mate of Dukakis, he was actually responsible for a famous moment, famous enough to be mentioned in a Seinfeld episode) and then did know the next few until McGoverns running mate in 72 but the actual result is 88 as that’s when I missed one

See how you go without cheating, it’s a fun game and if you can get back to WW2 an excellent party trick

Given that Harris needs to win not just the popular vote and not just the electoral college, but needs to win the electoral college by a margin where one state can’t make a difference (if it requires flipping just one state to give the election to Trump then him, Fox, right wing mobs and his Supreme Court lackeys will find a way to steal this election) then it should never be forgotten that Sanders aligned progressive activists looked at the machine Harry Reid built in Nevada and instead of thanking the lord that what is effectively a red state kept electing Democrats thanks to Reids organising and campaigning genius, they decided to run a campaign to take over the State Party and went on to be the only battleground State where an incumbent D lost a statewide race and now, even after being got rid of in 2023 have done enough damage that Nevada is leaning R in November (and thanks to the 22 disaster has a Republican Governor able to put his thumb on the scales

These people are just the absolute worst and won’t even be upset if what I describe happens
