    Fracture, baby, fracture!

    This is what y’all dipshits get for following a cult of personality in a game of politics.

    Amateur hour. Read a book.

      I may be a bit too optimistic, but it would be amazing if this was the election that broke the republican party.

      Not just that, but they made their object of worship a man who was already well-past senior status when this whole thing started. Why would you have ever put all your chips on this guy (Trump in 2016)???

      Jim Jones started Peoples Temple I’m his 20s and fucking ran with that for decades

    THIS is his Modus Operandi. We will go a week in between horrible shit he says, probably less as time goes on. He can’t help himself.

    Can’t wait for him to fucking lose.

      I’m hoping we get into a positive feedback loop of Good polls for Harris -> Trump loses his shit -> Trump lashes out embarrassingly and loses support -> Good polls for Harris. So far it seems to be working.

      I’ve already seen quite a few that are framing it as though the audience was eating out of his hand and for him against the interviewers

        No matter what utter embarrassments happen, those same sycophants will frame it that way. How anyone would choose to believe it is beyond me

    Lol. They don’t care and it changes nothing. We all knew he was a racist piece of shit last week, and now we still do.

    It is not possible for a conservative to be ashamed of bigotry. Bigotry is just who they are at their core.

    Conservatives are proud of Trump’s behavior. That’s why they chose him as their representative. They could’ve choosen anyone in the nation to represent who they are, and they chose Trump to reflect their values. He is their reflection.

    Let them feel the burn of Trumps candidacy. They put him in this place and sowed the wind, let them reap the storm that makes them unelectable, too.

    “Trump did more for Black Americans than any President in at least the last 50 years. VP Harris’ honeymoon will soon end,” LaLota added.

    Is LaLota braindead?

    I don’t think those quotes show Republicans reeling from anything. Those politicians know that Trump is a racist jerk, and they’re okay with it. However, they are trying to get votes closer to the center, or by people who are closet racists but polite in public, so they wanted to mildly distance themselves.

    I don’t get it? How are these remarks more embarrassing than so many other idiotic and false remarks he has made about his previous opponents, and on so many issues?
    Seems to me nothing really changed, but maybe some people are beginning to get tired of it?
    The real funny thing is how he constantly waves his hands in front of him to put them in a perspective where they look bigger.

      They’re different because more people are paying attention and he’s finally on defense.

      Biden couldn’t get press that wasn’t about infirmity. Trump only got passes. Things have changed.
