“I Hardly Know” should be the title of a Trump biography. He says it constantly.

Megan McCain must be squirming a bit … chafing at mom having kind of seriously cut down her ability to ramble all over the place.

DAY 1,344 - Still no pivot. Still the temperament of an unruly child. Still pathetic. VOTE!!

Fat Nixon is going to feel a lot of stings as his polling continues to degrade. The SCOTUS debacle will only hurt him and the GOP, as anyone immoral enough to vote GOP has already been baked into their deplorable base. It will swing those who are still somehow uncommitted.

I keep asking myself after Trump’s retorts like this:

What’s it to YOU?

Nobody has been repudiated by people from his own party the way Trump has. Not Dubya, not Nixon, for Christ’s sake. Nobody. He’s that corrupt, that nakedly antisocial and that simply awful.

He knows Arizona is lost. He knows McSally will lose. He responds like a child. He is weak.

Low energy. Sad!!!

Truly, god only knows what his 37% sees in him. Just such a pitiful rambling trash fire total fucking loser. The worst person I can think of from essentially any angle (sorry, Mr. Duke and Mr. Kim).

That why they vote for him.

Cindy McCain is “practically nobody” to him, I guess. But each high profile R who comes out supporting Biden gives others permission, greater confidence, and a sense of identity (because so much of this is identity politics) to do the same.

Excellent point. That translates into political permission. People like Rubin, Frum, Will, Schmidt, Wilson want to be on the side of the Cleanup Team.

Cindy MCain is working hard to keep her husband’s role of unpredictable spoiler alive, even in death. Every little bit helps!

But what about all the people who are the source of things he says? You know, the ones he refers to when he says, “I don’t know, but some people are saying,” and states something either grossly racist or completely dumb.

When asked for her response to the President’s tweet. She said simply: “I don’t have any.”

Ooh! Cutting off the narcissistic supply. That is well done.

Howling at bigots is a helluva way to prepare for a Debate. The howling is about half-based on fear of having his ass handed to him. That’s why his team has been (for once) complimenting Biden as a debater.

He doesn’t prepare

Left unsaid is that he is incapable of preparing.
