      No, he just made even more headlines. The more headlines he makes, the more votes he gets.

          You remember 2016? This is exactly how that year went. All these headlines while Trump’s polling numbers are completely unaffected. It’s 2016 all over again.

          I wish you were right. Unfortunately, there are a bunch of idiot voters out there who just fill in the box next to the name they hear more.

            I would like some evidence to support this please. Especially this close to an election.

            I can tell you from personal experience that it sure as fuck didn’t work for Meg Whitman.

        Is that the thinking? Like a child in the back of class, desperate for attention and confused about why other people don’t want to just be obnoxiously loud.

        No, folks don’t see any headline and think “that’s how I will vote.” This is the mental ability of an infant who just got object permanence.
