Anyone wanna tell him that the only reason she endorsed anyone in the first place is because Trump couldn't keep his big mouth shut? Had he not made a bunch of posts implying that Swift endorsed him, she probably would have stayed out of it.

A week from now: "Trump sells entire stake in Trump Media."

He should have ended it with "So you have nothing but fearmongering and hyperbole to go off of. Got it."

I recommend adding "rapist", "convicted felon", and "moron" to your list

I don’t get the hyperbolic responses to fucking everything by Trump. It’s always got to be biggest, best, worst, loudest. He fucking has no middle ground in any of the bullshit he spews.

It's simple word association. And subliminally, it works a lot better than you think it does. When you think of Trump, you think of words like "Biggest, best, loudest", etc. You think of it because you know that Trump will use those words to lie about himself. But all Trump cares about is that you associate him with the words "biggest", "best", and "loudest". He doesn't care why.

It's how he communicates. Short, easy to remember words and phrases that your brain will easily link with each other after enough repetition. Why your brain makes the connection is irrelevant. He only cares about the connection.

And if Trump is good at anything, he has absolutely mastered this skill.

The minute Trump sells even a single one of his stocks, it's over. The price will be $0 in minutes. The only ones that are left are the ones that are betting that he'll win in November and send the stocks soaring. If Trump even signals that he's looking to cash out, the investors will trample over his fat ass to make sure they get out before he does.

Are any of the illegal transgender aliens in the room with us now, Mr. Trump? And did one of them touch your pee pee and turn it into a mushroom?

rump himself previously pushed for 3 debates. Let’s see what his handlers allow him to agree to after this

They don't get to make the decision. They might beg him to never do another debate again, only for him to walk right out into the hallway and make a public announcement that he's agreed to like 4 other debates because he can't be perceived as having backed down.

Why on earth would he poke that bear?

Taylor Swift absolutely can drive voter registrations at levels that would easily supersede the 10-20k that swing states will be decided by, just based on her word. And her fanbase spreads across multiple demographics.

I'd be shocked if her announcement alone doesn't drive 100k registrations nationwide in the next 48 hours.

Here's what I expect:

For Harris to "win": She needs to be able to go toe to toe with Trump. Any stuttering, nervousness, or uneasiness will be preyed upon, both immediately by Trump and afterwards in soundbytes and attack ads. She cannot have a "......we finally beat medicaid!" moment. She needs to show that she can stand up to him and give it as good as she can get it in real time. She is definitely at a bigger risk here. Trump will gaffe every 30 seconds and nobody will bat an eye. One gaffe by Harris could cost her the election. Trump will be spouting his firehose of lies while Harris won't be able to fact-check 1% in real time. Harris needs to be pretty much perfect from start to finish. Any mistakes can and will be exploited.

For Trump to "win": Expectations are really low here. He's not trying to reach new voters. He opely says he doesn't care about policy. He is doubling down on the racism and misogyny of his base. All he needs to do is control the narrative. Ignore the rules, talk louder, interrupt mid-sentence. It doesn't matter what gibberish he vomits out of his mouth. None of it will cause him to lose a vote. All he needs to do is dictate the narrative and pace of the debate. He solidifies his position among his base as the mysoginist who will put women back where they belong, and gives undecided voters doubt about whether she will be able to handle the pressure. I think as long as Trump forces everybody to play his games by his rules as he usually does, it'll be a "victory" for him. Or at the very least a tie. As long as he can portray himself as the strongman going forward, he's really got nothing to lose.

I don't care how rich or poor you are. Every parent, and I mean every parent has considered every single friend and family member they could possibly squeeze free child care out of.

Nobody is going to turn down free, reliable child care. Nobody. If a parent isn't already tapping grandma, siblings, and friends, there's a reason for that. Could be ranging anywhere from "Mom also has to work" to "Mom can't keep up with a toddler any more" to "Mom is a fucking psychopath and I cut her out of my life 12 years ago."

This is what happens when you try to mix "inbred hillbilly" with "incoherent moron"

A couple of important details that got overlooked.

  • Don Jr. and Eric Trump do not have to put up the $5 million each that they were fined. Those collections are being paused as well.

  • The restrictions against Don Jr. and Eric Trump that would prevent them from running the business for 3 years has been lifted.

So much for that accountability. Can't wait to hear about the entire judgement getting tossed because an appelate judge decided that the Susan Collins rule of "He learned his lesson, and he pinky swears it won't happen again" applies.

As expected, Cannon is giving Trump what he wants.
