The only thing that really concerns me about the election, other than the fact there’s any chance at all trump could win, is the people that are undecided. A decrepit, fascist, fraud, rapist, and convicted felon is running for president vs a female democrat - who at this stage is close to a ‘70s/80s republican, and people haven’t figured it out yet?
They’re eating the cows!
The chickens too! The poor lobsters. Let me tell you about the lobsters. The boil them alive with their tied up ittty bitty claws. Then apply butter. Everyone’s talking about it. I saw it on Facebook.
I’m worried it’s not.
When rumors started that he might be incontinent, his supporters started wearing diapers in solidarity. I don’t think anything will deter them.
Yeah, when people call MAGA a cult it’s not an exaggeration. These people are brainwashed to the core. They were parading around in diapers over a rumor that he might be incontinent! That’s not even remotely close to a normal reaction to unpleasant gossip. Normal would be simply dismissing it out of hand because at the end of the day there isn’t really any proof.
Even if it was true, I wouldn’t consider incontinence a disqualifier for public office. If it doesn’t impair their ability to genuinely consult experts, I don’t think physical issues should matter.
He has far worse problems.
And yet they were the ones so adamant they would never wear a “chin diaper” during Covid.
I’m pretty sure there’s plenty of proof at this point.
His die hard supporters will go along with almost anything. I do think there’s a line somewhere that he could cross that would cause some of them to leave, but every time some new thing comes up and they go along with it, that line moves a little farther away.
However, he needs more than just the flavor-aid connoisseurs to win an election. A lot of the people who vote for him will be doing so simply because the feel like things aren’t great and want a change. They will vote while holding their nose, or just ignoring all the insanity around Trump because after a while it turns to white noise.
Convincing those voters that Trump isn’t going to be a better alternative is possible, and it’s probably easier to convince them Trump is old and unfit than it is to win them over on policy arguments. Way too many people vote (or not) based on vibes, and this line of attack works on that level.
An ever changing ceiling based only on the info provided through the media without any self analysis based on any facts.
I’m mostly concerned that the media has immunized too many people to his madness such that they effectively chose trump years ago and haven’t at all reevaluated that decision because the media has been sane-washing everything he does.
Remember, going negative is an effort to suppress turnout for the opposition. Trump voters are much more likely to wait until election day to vote, she gets extra time to convince them to just stay home, to not overcome everyday obstacles or just focus on other things.
If thinking about Trumps failing mental health makes a potential Trump voter uncomfortable, they might just be a little too busy or too tired or too stressed out about other things to deal with the cognitive dissonance of going to the polls to choose him.
It doesn’t need to work on a lot of people, but shaving off a fractional percent in key states could make a big difference.

He can weave his way anyway he wants, as long as it’s into a jail cell.
Stop using his word for it.
Weave implies intent, a pattern reaching a goal.
He meanders. He wanders, taking tangents as they appear in his brain, and he eventually circles back to the topic on the prompter (sometimes).
He Family Circus’ his way around in random directions and might make it back home if he’s lucky.
He doesn’t weave, he meanders.
guaranteed, although he screws himself all on his own most of the time
WHAT’S WRONG WITH HIS FACE
For a single moment, the Daemon slipped and Donald Trumps soul came to the forefront. Long enough for his facial muscles to hint the motion of what should be a decades long suppressed scream of agony and terror. The Daemon retakes control of the body immediately, chaining Trumps soul into his subconscious depths.
“That wasn’t the deal, Donnie”, it whispered. “We aren’t done yet.”
“I love cows” is a terrible headline when he says immediately after that Harris wants to ban cows in the same line.
Which is also a ??? moment
Well yeah. Like wtf is going on when he can make claims like that and constantly call her things like a radical leftist lunatic? I’m an actual leftist and I hate her. What do these people think a leftist actually is? It’s absolutely fucked.
Leftist = left of Hitler.
Yeah but unironically.
bit late innit?
