He feels attacked for being called “weird” and yet WE’RE the snowflakes. M’kay.

More importantly…what person wants to stand up in front of an audience (or even just one person) and talk for 45-90+ minutes.

Not taking questions…just..doing the talking.

?!?

Now THAT is weird!!!

did you just call professors who teach a big survey course weird? Lol.

Hahah omg no! I meant at a rally, I couldn’t fathom doing it without a clear agenda.…but could be my fear of public speaking coming out.

Most decent/good professors do take questions and engage with their students in a meaningful way but I see your point.

Trump posted a picture of Taylor Swift saying she wants you to vote for him.

Oh dude, if you thought Celine had a legal team, you haven't seen anything yet.

Let me see if I can get a screen grab from the IG that reposted it off my phone. I'm on a computer.

He also posted a bunch of AI generated photos of young women in ‘Swifties for Trump’ shirts. One of them had a satire label on it. I wonder if he truly believes they are real or if he knows they are fake but thinks the swifties of the world are too dumb to know and that this will sway them.

This is so good on so many levels.  The only big miss here is that his hair appears to be still attached to the top of his head.

I know it's daily fail, but I'm still tickled thinking that this guy could handle an aggressive campaign schedule that includes 2 states in a day. He can barely handle one a week and golfs the rest of the time. Can you imagine the meltdowns this would produce if he actually followed through?

Also I assume he's already on steroids among other drugs.

I love how they act like “hitting two states” potentially in a day is a gruesome workload. Ride in a car, get in your plane, ride in a car, speak for 20 minutes. Repeat. Michigan to WI, NC to GA…super quick, easy flights.

Good news, guys! Trump isn’t melting down or hysterical or frantically calling news outlets in a desperate attempt to control the narrative and obviously failing to do so. At least according to Trump. Guys, Fox News called HIM after VP Harris’ acceptance speech. (Well, technically, he called them but only because they begged him to call.)

thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4846466-donald-trump-fox-news-kamala-harris-dnc-speech/amp/

(TFG made no comment on the 43 posts/truths he frantically made during the 38 minute speech. Let’s move on like all that didn’t happen, okay? Geez)

[carmenere]

Trump’s team is whining about debate rules again.

www.politico.com/news/2024/08/26/kamala-harris-donald-trump-debate-abc-microphones-00176294

Now they want his mic to be muted when it’s not his turn to talk because they know he can’t control himself and they know Harris will shut him down if he tries to interrupt.

[AAM2012]

He wants to be muted lololol!!!

Harris’s team’s response to this is so perfect. It’s a total trap, and he will absolutely fall for it. LOL.

I completely understood why Biden’s team wanted him muted. Biden couldn’t respond fast enough to keep things under control. Harris is like, “Bring it!” And she can handle it!

I think it backfired a bit on Biden though because I heard someone speculating that when it looked like Biden lost his train of thought it was because Trump was still talking and only Joe could hear it. I can see how that would be super distracting.

Did you guys see the transcript of Vance in the donut shop? It is so so bad. He is so odd and weird. He doesn’t even know how to talk to people.

I watched the video, too. It was so awkward!

The comments were all saying basically that the people with him were totally inept at their job. It should be someone’s job to go in and scope the place out, make sure people are OK with being on camera (and supportive of the candidate), and learn a little about the people inside so the candidate can be briefed on things to say. Obviously they did NONE of that!

I was volunteering somewhere several years ago when a state house representative was going to be making a stop and press was coming. We were all aware of what was going on, and her people were doing the legwork to find good stories. It just shows how completely awful this whole campaign is being run.

Only the best.

Trump Says We ‘Gotta’ Restrict the First Amendment
The former president vowed to torch free-speech protections days after RFK Jr. touted him as anti-censorship. 

www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-restrict-first-amendment-1235088402/

On Monday, Trump complained about pushback to a proposal to sentence people to a year in jail for burning the American flag.

“I wanna get a law passed […] You burn an American flag, you go to jail for one year. Gotta do it — you gotta do it,” Trump said.

“They say, ‘Sir, that’s unconstitutional.’ We’ll make it constitutional.”

Didn’tTrump complain previously about the muted mic leading up to the Biden debate? Can’t have it both ways Donald!

But I do wish the Harris team hadn’t discussed the (obvious) fact that he can’t act presidential but speak to more of “what are you afraid of?”

“I don’t want to be filmed”

“Ok guys cut her out of anything….(but keep filming)”

Um no I DON’t WANT TO BE FILMED MEANS STOP FILMING ME!!!!

It was very uncomfortable to watch, not that I would have expected anything different from Vance.

And him at the deli was even worse. Asking for their worst food to feed to journalists... in a room full of journalists. Bro, you're askng the owner what he makes that sucks? And mocking journalists while doing so? While they're watching.

He's absolutely ranting in his platform.

It's all lies and misinformation if course, but I can see how it would sound convincing to a low information voter indoctrinated by fox and worse
