It’s a cult. The MAGAts are all in for dear leader. Anything he does or says will be explained away through convoluted logic.
A third of this country has pledged undying loyalty to a blowhard scam artist. I’m just afraid of what the fallout may be when he eventually implodes, or runs off to Venezuela.
What they did was illegal. Their conduct while there (getting into a physical altercation with ANC staff trying to stop them) was a dishonour to everyone who had ever worn the uniform. Even had they managed to pull it off with no issue it would have still been an incredibly crass stunt, but is made all the worse for his documented disdain of the individuals who make up the armed forces - Kelly’s confirmation of the sucker’s and losers comments, his recent bit about the medal of honour, his refusal to go to dover…fuck do people even remember today that botched Yemen raid in his first weeks that was approved just to prove Obama was a pussy (Obama had rejected it based on too low a chance of success) leading to criticism from families of the deceased about the decision and Trump deciding it wasnt worth his time to subject himself to that anymore resulting in him sending Pence every other time.
Yet MAGA people will give you and up is down, black is white response to every single one of those finding ways to excuse them, blame someone else, or just deny that the issue happened.
Never let the more recent focus of the awfulness of Musk, Sacks and the rest of the All In fuckos make us forget that Zuk is also a special kind of self-serving cunt who will blow up anything that serves his interests.
Anything they get out of it in terms of debate rules is a plus. The point here is to wind trump up and get the campaign team fighting with each other (they say “rules have already been agreed” while trump goes off script and says he’s fine with open mics)
It’s a weird period for the model. It factors in a decent bump from the convention for Harris which has basically cancelled out a lot of her recent polling improvement because the model sees those as expected in this immediate post convention period. If she sustains these polls for another month his model will tilt back to a 5 point Harris advantage.
Biggest issue is we just don’t have polling from PA…and the only way PA is not the tipping point is if Harris wins in an unexpected landslide.
It’s been said a thousand times, but how is it still this close?
Almost daily, Trump or Vance, or both, come out with some awful, crass or stupid statement revealing their unfitness for government, but his support remains steady and Harris can’t seem to build a lead.
It’s unbelievable.
