lol, I feel like my brain is going to explode if I try to wrap my head around the logic Trump is using to get to this conclusion.

This level of mental gymnastics should only be attempted by seasoned professionals.

Okay, I did some stretches and I feel warmed up.

My biggest complaint is that the answer to the question "So, we are forced to spend time and money on fighting crooked Joe Biden?" is "no".

He wasn't forced to fight Joe Biden. Instead of attacking Joe he could've focused on extolling his own virtues.

I feel like reacting this way indicates that he doesn't see himself as a candidate worthy of winning the election on his own merit.

Or their campaign finances are so tight fighting legal battles they can't afford to pivot.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah, but if the campaign was based on the belief that "Trump is the best candidate regardless of who he's running against" there would never be a need to pivot based on the opponent changing.

Which to me indicates Trump was viewing his 2024 campaign as a grudge match between himself and Biden as opposed to viewing it as a campaign to be elected president of the United States of America.

Like, where's the strength of conviction? The guy is flailing and it's embarrassing.

His campaign is a desperate attempt to get back that sweet sweet presidential immunity, plus all the perks he'll get selling out the country for pennies on the dollar.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

That's exactly what it feels like to me as well. Just an attempt to grab power to use for himself.

Don't forget the revenge

Or he could have just..... not ran.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

This just came to me - you now need to run for president.

400m lap before any presidential debate, speech or campaign announcements. If you do it in more than the country average you can't respond and first back can start.

Disabled candidates can follow paralympics rules.

And overthrow the government how?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

He spent so much effort attacking Joe Biden. Mostly because his entire campaign is centered around attacking Joe Biden, and not any real policies. Now that’s all in vain.

He’s mostly thinking about himself.

[-] [email protected] -2 points 1 month ago

Both parties have built campaigns surrounding the other guy. Look at the very first thing you see when visiting the Democrat website. It's preposterous!

With any luck it will make his brain explode!
