I didn’t think a debate could be any more depressing than the ones from 2020. I have a feeling I couldn’t have been more wrong. These are gonna be an absolute horror show. Do you think Trump would show up? Last time he didn’t and blamed someone else. Yeah, he’ll show up.

I don’t believe I’ve known anyone who so vastly overrates his intelligence and competence as much as Trump. I believe he thinks he can run circles around Biden and is in complete denial about his rapidly declining cognitive abilities (which were paltry before the decline). I believe he will show up, and, no matter what happens, declare himself the winner and say everyone agrees with him. Or, you may be right and he bows out complaining about the conditions and how unfair they are. He’s got two schticks: 1) sucking at everything (except convincing millions of rubes that he is the messiah), then saying how great he is or how great he did, i.e. lying; and 2) being a whiny little b!tch. It’s a toss up which way this will go.

That’s why I’m always floored when polls come back showing the electorate “trusts” Trump more on certain issues than Biden. He would literally make every issue polled (economy, inflation, etc.) worse than Biden except for controlling immigration. And that’s only because he’s willing to do it the most awful and inhumane ways imaginable. It’s so disturbing how little the average American understands what’s going on around them.

A second stanza of the worst president in the history of this country isn't the best alternative.

That looks like about a million to me. What's the problem?

Moron clown cult. Donald Trump is getting clear advice from a sizable number of Hill Republicans, even some MAGA loyalists: Pick a running mate who can attract more wary GOP voters on the center-right. Some of them even want him to consider a rival he’s publicly ruled out, Nikki Haley — who recently revealed she’d be voting for him. www.politico.com/news/2024/05/26/trump-running-mate-haley-gop-00159747

"Republicans" enable, support and vote for this guy. Congrats, cultists. When President Donald Trump canceled a visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery, near Paris, in 2018, he blamed rain for the last-minute decision, saying that “the helicopter couldn’t fly” and that the Secret Service wouldn’t drive him there. Neither claim was true. Trump rejected the idea of the visit because he feared his hair would become disheveled in the rain, and because he did not believe it important to honor American war dead, according to four people with firsthand knowledge of the discussion that day. In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning of the scheduled visit, Trump said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed. Trump finds the notion of military service difficult to understand, and the idea of volunteering to serve especially incomprehensible. (The president did not serve in the military; he received a medical deferment from the draft during the Vietnam War because of the alleged presence of bone spurs in his feet. In the 1990s, Trump said his efforts to avoid contracting sexually transmitted diseases constituted his “personal Vietnam.”) www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/09/trump-americans-who-died-at-war-are-losers-and-suckers/615997/
