    Literally the funniest goddamned thing that could happen is if Trump loses because the candidate that the conservatives drafted to suck votes away from Biden ends up sucking those votes away from Trump instead.

    Did anything of note come out of the press conference? It sounds like it was just two hours of low energy ranty grandpa. CNN was doing a post mortem fact check, so it sounds like Trump was just doing his rally but with an audience of stenographers instead of fans?

    This doesn't sound like someone who'll be working to get Georgia to secede if Trump loses. Rather, he'll (with some justification) be presenting himself as the future of the GOP.

    I think Republicans like Kemp have been keeping their powder dry for some time, so to speak, so that they can survive for now and position themselves for what’s next. They know Trump is nearly 80. If he loses again, there will a huge power vacuum in the party that people like Kemp will rush to fill. If he wins, well, he’ll be too old to play any future role, so someone else will need to step up. I assume actually prefers the first scenario.

    Dang it. My joke was a lot funnier when I thought the polling was from Harris Insights. ;)

    It probably would have been better for his campaign if he had. LOL

    Agree.i read that as someone who is trying to protect the down ballot and limit the damage of the eventual Trump loss.

    Damn.

    BTW…my new x policy is to mute and block lefty x parody accounts. Far too many try to pass off complete misinformation as “parody”. It’s not helpful.


    Edit to say: not necessarily the parody accounts. But accounts like this that share parody either purposely…or mistakenly but then don’t remove the posts when they realize it’s parody.

    this account has 30,000 followers. Brainkempga has 38 followers. This account didn’t retweet the original tweet. He screen grabbed and amplified. Accounts like this need to die.

    I guess true freedom of speech means you can have a blue check mark while using someone else's name and no one stops you.

    Trump Mulls a Campaign Shake Up


    Tara Palmeri: “Despite yet another whirlwind week of campaign news, the dour mood inside Mar-a-Lago hasn’t changed much at all. In fact, according to sources familiar with the situation, new frustrations seem to be cropping up all the time: Trump is not only pissed about Kamala Harris’s bonkers fundraising ($310 million in July, and another $36 million in the 24 hours after announcing Tim Walz), but also the fact that his campaign hasn’t been able to land any blows on his more youthful political foil.”

    “And instead of focusing on his own spate of unforced errors—like absurdly questioning her racial identity—he’s glancing around him, wondering if it’s time for a reshuffle. His campaign, naturally, wants to keep him ‘on task,’ but outside voices appear to be breaking through, and are starting to have more sway over the principal than the homebound and deferential denizens of Mar-a-Lago.”

    I’d just be concerned what else might be hiding in his freezer.

    If he loses again there’s nothing to say he doesn’t run again in four years.

    Nothing besides his obviously deteriorating mental capacity.

    Guy can barely even campaign now - what does that look like in 2028?

    All I’m saying is that didn’t stop him this time around. He didn’t even do the debates. I don’t think he’s going away if he loses unless he ends up imprisoned.

    *nudgenudge* Rub is the parody account, not BrainKemp. Rub probably has a throwaway account that they rename for each of their jokes and take a screenshot, or they do it the old fashioned way with an image editor.
