no this is obviously satire, but I think it is actually quite realistic
For those gullible enough to think his attempts to rhetorically moderate his position on abortion should be taken seriously, he was given the opportunity yesterday to directly oppose calls to ban mifepristone. This was his response
-
this is utter garbled nonsense that should preclude any further discussion on Trump having actual ideas about anything
-
he very clearly refused to rule it out, which is at minimum a pandering to a maximally extremist position
The only credible take on Trump and abortion is he doesnt give a shit and that decisions on it are part of the job he has no interest in. So what he will do is that whatever forces can get him into the whitehouse will be given a free ride to do whatever they want on the issue.
Does anyone know what’s going on there?
My conspiracy theory adjacent idea is that with Bannon in jail he is no longer able to do the work to keep these people focused and on message and so the network is being a disorganized free for all.
Tim Pool has been trying to adopt the “Republicans are weirdos” message by branding himself a weirdo and posting a bunch of nonsensical crap on social media.
I’d bet this is just Pool trying to garner attention.
You can’t get much weirder than joining the bear botherer.
‘Trump isn’t fun anymore’: Columnist claims MAGA leader’s greatest charm has died
The dancing, joking, story-telling persona that helped lure Donald Trump’s adoring MAGA base has become a casualty of Kamala Harris’ campaign, a columnist wrote Friday.
Trump’s rallies have been full of jokes, sometimes cruel nicknames, cutting observations and performance theatre that left his crowds charmed.
But, wrote Heather Digby Parton, Harris’ arrival on the scene has killed that side of him.
“Donald Trump isn’t fun anymore,” she stated.
And she based the revelation on Trump’s emergence from days of Mar-a-Lago isolation to give a news conference Thursday that many commentators described as a chaotic event suggesting a flailing campaign.
**“**He was dour and angry and frankly is starting to look a whole lot older, just in the past few months,” Parton wrote.
“He’s not enjoying himself and it shows and, compared to the excited crowds greeting Harris and Walz this week, this sad, pathetic appearance seemed almost funereal.”
Parton wrote that the change was fully down to Biden stepping aside and Harris taking the mantle as the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate. Even facing possible prison time in four criminal prosecutions hadn’t dampened his spirits as much.
“Donald Trump is in a bad way,” she wrote.
Parton went on, “I think he’s considering for the first time that he might lose again and he is not psychologically equipped to deal with that reality.
“Sure, he’ll fight it and tell his supporters that it was stolen and perhaps even incite more violence. But deep down he knows he might actually lose just as he knows deep down that he lost in 2020. There’s a look of panic in his eyes right now.
“If he fails this time he might just break apart at the seams. "
I’m sorry, where can I get paid to write that drivel?
The more that jump on about his demeanour… the more it will drive him crazy
And the more likely he is to go rogue. There are stories from credible people that he announced that press conference yesterday without knowledge of his campaign because he’s just furious at how much attention Kamala is getting. his campaign know not to put him in public in that state so he went around them hence it being such a shoddily organized event only a notch above four seasons landscaping
Sad
Moldy
Piss
He seems to have become addicted to adulation… Can’t do without it.
He will have to go Cold Turkey in his prison cell sometime after Nov 5th - I wonder if his Bone Spurs can keep him out of jail :0)
On a more uplifting note, so, we all know Tim (yeah, we’re on first name terms now), is into Springsteen, and we know about the Prince thing, but now it turns out he’s a Clash fan too!
US politics turned on it’s head!
What do you mean become?
His condition is getting more desperate… clapping crowds, clapping crowds… On the Trump planet, he needs clapping crowds, clapping crowds and then more clapping crowds that hang from his every word :0)
Become even more addicted…
