Do you think Donald is going to make it to November? I feel like since Kamala became his opponent he's starting to fall apart.

I think he saw a path to victory against Biden. I think that path looks a whole lot less certain for hum against Harris and i think that mental strain is taking a toll on him.

What do you think, Republicans? Democrats? MAGAs?

From the other side of the Atlantic, that's the impression I get too. 👍

He's made a lot blunders, for sure. And it's a major blow to the campaign that he is now the old man with declining faculties.

ArtieKat · M

@Pikachu Agreed

@ArtieKat He never listened to his advisors the whole time he was POTUS. Always goes off script when speaking from a teleprompter. Hes not going to change any of that.

I wonder why this man wants to become president again anyway. What's in it for him? Playing golf and learning banjo would make much more sense in my opinion, considering his age.

@jackson55 If Harris is a C student then Trump is at best a Z student. Seriously he was a terrible President.

helenS · 36-40, F

@justanothername I'm certainly not Mr. Trump's biggest fan, but I think you will hardly become President of the United States of America by being a vindictive narcissist alone.

22Michelle · 61-69, T

@helenS If there's enough money behind you it's eminently possible.

As long as the GOP thinks he can win, they will continue to run him. Between his convictions, the switch up with Kamala, and the assassination attempt he's probably spent. So far Kamala is in the lead, and I personally hope she wins.

@Pikachu it could be, but the GOP won't do it. Trump has too much support and too much power at this point, and as long as he keep winning the GOP will keep him. It's sad really, I have plenty of conservative friends but the GOP only cares about winning.

Pikachu

@GohantheThird

Well i think they would be dead in the water if they pulled Trump at this point. But i mean legally. He's the official nominee, right?

GohantheThird · M

@Pikachu so far, he's the nominee and nothing will change that.

SunshineGirl · 36-40, F

His whole electoral strategy was turned upside down by Biden's withdrawal. That much was evidenced by the ridiculous lawsuit he proposed to seek damages. He shows little sign of adapting or recovering his composure.

helenS · 36-40, F

@SunshineGirl Question is whether those MAGA freaks will take note of that...

Pikachu

@SunshineGirl

Yeah that was weird lol.
It shouldn't matter who the opponent is because it's the policies that matter, right?......right? 🤣🤣🤣

SunshineGirl · 36-40, F

@Pikachu Yes, of course! 🤣

Carla · 61-69, F

I saw him speak in michigan and north carolina. He looks both tired and uninspired.

Pikachu

@Carla

I've seen a few videos where yeah, he just seems to be out of energy. Running on autopilot.

ViciDraco · 36-40, M

@Pikachu or he's going really fast but gets less coherent and more frantic. It's not a normal quickness, it's almost like he's on drugs.

softspokenman · M

No, he looks and sounds like he is burning out.

Pikachu

@softspokenman

I think you're right about that but i'd like get the perspective of people more on his side of the isle as well. Do they see this decline as well or is it all smooth sailing in their eyes?

softspokenman · M

@Pikachu At this point in time (IMO) if he was on his death bed, SOME of them would say that he is just taking a short power nap.

Pikachu

@softspokenman

lol it's legit a cult for some of them.

Ontheroad · M

Trump is done, or will be if the voters don't get too confident in a Harris win... his and MAGA's days are over.

@Pikachu and this very thing, his fear of failure that will get him. The more he goes off script and does and says crazy things, the more votes he will lose and the more voters will vote for Harris.

We know his MAGA followers will vote for him, but his crazy antics are going to get enough undecided voters to vote for Harris. So yeah, he is dooming himself to failure.

And I'm loving it.

Kwek00 · 41-45, M

Still 2 full months left... that's an eternity in politics. Who knows what will happen.
There are still issues of voter-suppression that will go to the courts in the next couple of months. Because we all know, it's not about the popular vote, it's about the person that wins the most electors.

... and all elections in the last 40 years have been tight, I don't think it will be diffrent this time.

Pikachu

@Kwek00

Yeah as it stands now i think it would be a close vote either way. I'm just wondering if the Trump campaign can keep taking the heat from an increasingly erratic Donald.

Kwek00 · 41-45, M

@Pikachu Well... it's only going to get worst. Drive a cat in a corner, and things can get wild.

Whoever planned Kamala's entry is a real genius!
Before Joe was called back few years ago, I bet the initial intention was to nominate Kamala, but Trump's team was ready for it! They were prepared to tear her apart! So Joe came back from retirement, surprised the opposition, won! They put Kamala as VP to give her more exposure. What was absolutely genius was they told to keep a low profile so Republicans won't suspect her to be the next candidate! Lol 😂 we all fell for it. All sort of memes out there about how dumb she is etc. So Republicans really believed Joe Biden was gonna run again! It felt like an easy win!
But it was Gambit! Trump took the bait, spent all his resources strategizing against Joe only be surprised by a Queen Gambit Kamala! Now people are like, wait a minute, she is not stupid after all haha It's too late.
Lol Trump's team need to hire a chess player, a Super Grand Master if they want to fight back.

UndeadSona · F

He doesn't actually have to keep it together to win. His lose condition is his opponent winning so if anything he can afford to either relax or be more unhinged

@UndeadSona Make it to November without soiling his pants? Probably not, November is a long way off and it all depends on what he had to eat.

UndeadSona · F

@Pikachu moderates don't actually exist tbh he's not at risk of alienating them, the left will do that themselves. he'd have to do something completely absurd to mess up. He could literally just deflect until November and say buzz word or two while waiting for Kamala to misstep. Imho

Pikachu

@UndeadSona

Oh i think they do. There are the people who would never vote for Trump regardless of who is running against him.
There are the people who consider Trump to be a literal savior and who will excuse any fault.

But there are many Republican or conservative Americans who do not like what Trump has done to their party or what he might represent for their country.

For his cult he need make no changes...to win the election he needs to keep control of himself. I don't know if his personality or declining mental faculties will allow him to do that.

TurtlePink · 22-25, F

Not if he has a heart attack and dies

Pikachu

@TurtlePink

I think it must be such a gut punch for him and his campaign that the assassination attempt got him so little traction.

TurtlePink · 22-25, F

@Pikachu who cares. He just looks too old to be president

Pikachu

@TurtlePink

He's the old man in the race now. A challenging turn of events given that his entire campaign previously revolved around "Biden old man".

He's probably going to get a polling boost with RFK Jr dropping and that might actually give him some energy to feed on, unfortunately

@BohemianBabe

I think Trump is absolutely a threat to America.
I just also think that when we get to wishing harm or death on political opponents, it's a small step from there to political assassination of the type we've already seen and that is unacceptable.

BohemianBabe · M

@Pikachu I agree, assassinating Osama bin Laden was wrong. It especially would have been wrong to assassinate him before he did 9/11.

Pikachu

@BohemianBabe

I think you might be making my point for me there...
