Crowd Size
The Harris/Walz campaign had a fantastic weekend — venues filled to capacity with very excited democracy loving Americans. They stood in line for hours and then waited inside for hours without complaint. They were thrilled to be there. Instead of all white, over fed, ignorant racists, the stadiums were filled with people who didn’t look alike, didn’t sound alike, and weren’t wearing the same stupid hat. There were plenty of atheists sitting side by side with different believers from different tribes AND THEY ALL GOT ALONG. Nobody even asked what God the person next to them prayed to but they were confident it wasn’t Republican Jesus. There were lots of women with men standing behind them or to the sides of them, ready and eager to see women take the lead — men who are not threatened by women.
Trump had a dinky little MAGA rally in Montana of all places. Montana is only worth 4 electoral votes so what’s up with that? He claims that Kamala used AI to recreate crowd size. The enthusiasm and turnout for Kamala has all been organic. There was no AI, just tens of thousands of people shooting video and photos with their own phones and posting them on social media. Turnout for Kamala’s campaign events has been over 100%. Trump can’t compete. He says he’s not going to campaign for the next 3 weeks. Say what? Trump is going to blow off campaigning for 3 weeks when his opponent has all the momentum and media attention? That’s not like him at all. He can’t fire stink bombs at the Harris/Walz campaign from Truth Social alone. What’s he up to?
He froze for over 20 seconds while ranting at the podium in Montana. It was so awkward Fox pulled away because they didn’t know what to say. He said of his own events, “Nobody has spoken to crowds bigger than me. If you look at Martin Luther King when he did his speech, his great speech, and you look at ours … we had more.” He claimed that hundreds of governors have called him. There are only 50 states. Who’s gonna tell him? When asked about his ear he said he said he was recovered because he’s a fast healer.
Remember when Trump got shot? That’s old news now. A former president who is running to be president again who was shot at at a campaign rally less than a month ago is of little to no significance to anybody but his brainwashed psychophants. Ordinarily this would shock a nation to such a degree that the country would be changed forever more but we can’t be shocked anymore. We expect that Trump would get shot in the ear with an AR-15 because he lies and performs for the cameras nonstop. He said that he knew the former mayor of San Francisco, Willie Brown, really well and that they both almost crashed when riding in a helicopter together. Willie Brown said that never happened.
Trump held the job of president for 4 years and he still doesn’t know what the job entails. He said of his opponent, a highly educated and qualified candidate, that she wasn’t smart enough to be president. The stupidest guy to run for president called one of the smartest “stupid.”
Kamala is beating Trump in the polls after just a few short weeks. He’s freaked. He really cares about poll numbers. Polls mean a lot to him. He has lost traction. He is melting down after the latest poll numbers. He can’t stop shit posting on Truth Social.
He’s scared.
He claims that his campaign was hacked by a foreign government. He believes it’s Iran. If so, where is the “story?”
Why would a narcissist in crisis, who can never get enough attention, give up like this? Is it because 1) the Iranian hack is for real and there’s more to the story that’s really scary, 2) he’s afraid of getting shot, or 3) he ran out of money (he couldn’t land his plane at the airport in Montana because he owes them money from the last time he was there — he blew off paying them.)
He tried getting a narcissistic fix by inserting himself into the news cycle by calling an emergency press conference where he blithered on for a whole hour about the same old shit. The mainstream media, once again, obliged him by showing up to Mar-a-Lago and covering the “press conference” for the whole hour, FREE OF CHARGE. By calling it a press conference he got out of having to pay anybody anything. The media has been doing this for him for 8 years. When he says, “jump” they bounce and twirl. They didn’t give the same amount of time to Kamala. They gave her no time. Social media is how the news got out about her packed rallies. When it comes to informing the public, if you want to do it right, as the saying goes, you’ll have to do it yourself which means report the story with your own phone. The mainstream media is beholden to its owners. It’s not a free press. It costs.
Republicans are weird fun fact: JD Vance stalked Kamala Harris by parking his plane next to her plane at one of her rallies and then walking over to her plane with a bunch of white guys in suits, in formation. He wanted to inspect her plane because he said it will be his soon. They were going for a bully look but they just looked weird. He stalked her. He told reporters she refused to talk to him and accused her of running her campaign out of a basement with a couple of teleprompters.
JD Vance and Donald Trump are creepy, weird, desperate, and aimless. Trump is rapidly losing power but he can’t lose. More than that he can’t lose to a woman. More than that he can’t lose to a Black woman. Get ready.
