Oof. Incredible lack of self-awareness while also throwing your running mate under the bus lol
Trump whipped a violent mob into a frenzy ready to actually lynch his last running mate. JD just needs to look at Pence to see what his own future holds.
If they win, they are going to 25th Ammendment Trump. Then it will be Peter Thiels puppet in charge.
Make no mistake about it.
It would be funny to see Donald stroke out with rage from that. But it would be even funnier to see him stroke out with rage if he is defeated by a black woman. Also it wouldn't be a fascist dictatorship, so I'd greatly prefer the latter.
lmao he genuinely thinks people don't find him weird. what a weirdoooo
If by "genuinely thinks" you mean "is in denial", sure. It's not so much a matter of believing it or not, he just says what he wants to be true, simple as.
If he thinks it’s not about him maybe Walz should dispel him of that notion.
"They don't hate me, they hate my VP." What a dimwit.
How long before MAWA?
I read that at first as "Make America White Again" and was thinking "since the beginning"
You said the quiet part out loud..
Doesn't quite work here, but ok
I feel like it was the kind of thing that worked better before articles were written about it and then literally every article and comment since then has included the word.
Openly talking about it as a strategy feels like it’s turning it into our version of “Let’s Go Brandon” in a way.
I thought the same thing, but it has sparked a huge discussion about if the word "weird" is a good label for Trump, Vance, and the most fervent MAGA supporters. When you're fighting a cult, I have a feeling it works.
Fair point, I see where you are coming from. This is definitely one of those "I'd rather be wrong" opinions on my end.
