Summary

Tim Alberta of The Atlantic reports low morale and mounting frustration within Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign, with some staff expressing “resentment” and even “disgust” toward the candidate.

Once optimistic about Trump’s chances, aides are now worried as the campaign appears to be unraveling in its final stretch. Alberta shared that senior staffers feel exhausted by Trump’s increasingly erratic behavior, with one high-ranking insider admitting they partly hope for his defeat.

    As you should. Trump and his supporters are the worst thing to happen to America in my lifetime at minimum. Still, your original post seemed to be getting awfully close to discounting the possibility that they might win and that’s not assured. If that’s not what you were getting at then by all means, carry on.

      All good, I get your point. They might win. I don’t think they will, but they might. If they do, I’m not going to waste a second about having publicly presumed they would not though. There will be bigger fish to fry. 🙂
