Ego trip …

There are those who think Democrats should be above pushing Little Donald’s narcissistic injury buttons.

I’m not one of them.

You go girl! You Go!

Push that old fat small handed narcissist over the edge. He will lash back, and will do it in a stupid and petty way. That will not look good for suburban voters, who likely all think that the idea of 5,000 republicans gathered in a single place for several days, jam packed is insane.

Per Kaiser Family Foundation poll (with a VERY R heavy sample, 3-4% too republican IMHO) only 8% of Democrats, 20% of Independents, and 31% of Republicans would personally attend a concert or sporting event, and this is the envelope Trump is going to push on… https://www.kff.org/coronavirus-covid-19/report/kff-health-tracking-poll-may-2020/

Lets have this fight…

Please don’t slam Trump.
Encourage him to encourage all his believers to cram themselves into any arena,without masks, to honor and nominate their hero.
Lets see how many will show up and put their health on the line.

Especially now that it’s proven that nothing is going to get done in Congress until after the election, anyways. Lazy Republican dullards are just waiting for the hammer to drop.

Keep getting those worms under his skin. He will obsess and it will haunt him all day and night. He will lose focus on everything else except to defend himself. (not that he is focused at all). The worst thing you can do to a narcissist besides ignoring them is humiliate them. That is the ultimate injury they are trying to avoid.

Of course, it’s more than just his ego. He is going into withdrawals from his rallies. It is a deep, sick need he has to try to fill that giant black hole he has for a soul.

When he was a child, Trump’s parents told him they were taking him on a trip and asked him where he wanted to go. He responded “Ego, my favoratest place in the world! I want to go on ego trip!”.

“several Republicans — have tried to woo Trump into relocating the RNC to their states”

You call that woo? I can hear the suction noises from mid-continent as they scramble to kiss Rump’s . . . rump.

The hilarious thing is that Donnie thinks venues of this size can just switch with the snap of a finger. No, the logistics of a national convention take a LOOOOOT of careful planning to avoid a catastrophe.

So, YEEE - HAAWWWW! You just have at it, Donnie! Don’t sign that contract for at least a couple of months! It’ll be BOFFO!
