When Trump is wrong

    This week there's been some photos going around of crowds for Harris that some fringe people have been calling fake. What does it make you think when Trump latches on so strongly to something so obviously wrong?

    He's posted several things to this effect. Obsession with crowd size and whatnot.

    I'm not going to obsess over folks posting doctored images . . . my time's worth more than that.

    However, if people are caught and convicted of voter fraud or election fraud, they should be exiled from the USA.

    Being wrong is what he does. He prolly doesn't even know/understand he is lying all the time. The matter between his ears is just so much pudding. At least this spectacle is coming to an end. By Nov 6 he will have sunk the GQP/maggots and will either be or about to be imprisoned. Then prosecuted some more. He might have halved the 2 party system for decades to come.

    Yeah, that's why he was able to set this nation on a far better path than TMBTC.

    He ain't my favorite person, to be sure, but he does lead better than anyone your side can put up.

    But that's the point of it, it's not a doctored image, those people are really there. So what do you think of him so boldly lying like this? Trump posted about this repeatedly for hours.

    I'm in the @freshmeat camp where I don't think Trump even knows he's lying all the time.

    Either way, lying or just obsessively wrong, it's clear the man is not well.

    Let's talk about both lying and being obsessively wrong for a bit . . . you're siding with which party?

    You can both sides it if you want. I was just interested in your reaction to these bold faced lies, especially because there's no real gain to them except to feed his narcissism.

    Oh, we can talk about both sides alright, but I don't think it'll be a very balanced conversation.

    So damn much propaganda. Who cares? Phony crowd... Phony Tweets... Phony dossiers. The list is never ending and I really don't care. We are a sinking ship and we need a genuine leader to right the ship. Show me a leader who stands for what is right and not for what brings the vote. There is only one running that meets my criteria.

    And you pick the guy trying to lie about crowds to boost his ego?

    I'm just gonna tangent here, since it's somewhat related to his crowd sizes. What's the deal with him stopping nearly all his events and sending Vance out alone to campaign?

    I promise I'm being charitable to him when I say this, I think he might have PTSD from almost getting killed. I really wouldn't blame him for that either, it makes me sad for him. To suddenly stop making appearances as the campaign trail heats up seems odd.

    He had the one in Montana last week, and now he's about to go to Asheville, NC as his only stop this week. Notably, both are indoor venues, when the open air rallies have been his go-to for some time now.

    This speculation is largely useless, I've just been trying to think about why he's put the brakes on any momentum at such a crucial time.

    The primary purpose of rallies is to gain the attention and support of swing-voters, and not as much for those in attendance.

    While he can spend the time more productively on working out other campaign details, I think he's waiting for the bubble gum crowd to chew all of the sweetness out of their wads before he resumes the intensive road trips.

    Yet another sign of what a strong leader does . . .

    I mean... no judgement here, do you genuinely think that's what he's doing?

    Where exactly in this master plan does spending hours each day complaining on social media about his opponent's crowds fit in?

    Gene.... There are enough lies to go around. Believe me..... I wasn't shopping for home bunkers when the man was at the top and I believe he can get us there again. I have zero confidence that Harris has the strength to do it. If she did, it would have already happened.

    It's exactly what I'd be doing. Why waste tremendous resources opposing something that'll naturally dissipate on its own?


    That's called damage control, and while it certainly takes a little of his time, it obviously isn't all-consuming. Kamala presently has the lollipop crowd frenetically screaming "Trump bad, Kamala Good", so he should be spending a little time breaking through the noise.

    Since he can do that from anywhere, but he cannot as productively plan for and put into motion the other campaigning activites while on the road as he can from his offices, it makes perfect sense to inject whatever quips he wishes during breaks from his scheduled meetings.

    I would certainly have PTSD. I would agree with @toughcoins on this one. All the bright lights are on Harris right now. That will pass soon enough and the rallies will be back in full swing I am sure.

    I wonder if Harris would fire a General or Admiral. I wonder how many Harris will dismiss for incompetency and interference with the Executive Branch, or interference with the Judicial Branch.

    There is Pekinese size testicles and there is Elephant size testicles.

    A helpful hint to assist in choosing the correct answer:

    Girls have a Vagina, and Boys have a Penis.

    I am cognizant that Harris does not completely understand gender differences, but it should be obvious that there is only one choice to make, and that is which size.

    Typically in the past, VPs are the attack dogs. They go on unfriendly news channels and defend the position of the presidential candidate. Of course this hasn’t happened in the last two cycles for Dems because Kamala is not well spoken and they don’t want Waltz to have to defend his past. Hence, no news conferences or interviews from the Harris campaign. Weird huh?
