What pisses me off most about this latest "attempt" on tRump......

is that it's sucking all the oxygen out of the news. All we see right now is every little detail on this maniac. tRump, once again, has been handed a PR bonanza while any mention of Kamala has disappeared.

AND why aren't the media mentioning that tRump is putting the lives of his Secret Service detail in jeopardy by insisting on playing golf nearly every day of the week?

Edited to add:

Also, it's difficult to have sympathy for anyone who normalizes gun violence. The GQP has brought this on themselves by refusing to discuss even the most basic gun reforms..... fuck 'em.

No doubt we have missed some important news because they are like dogs with bones, won't let it go. Sick of it and they are boring.

Just to freaking coincidental, what with Vance going rogue on the Sunday talk shows and letting the cat out of the bag and all. Mighty suspicious is all I'm saying.

18. Their plan for all of America if elected

Making up lies to put their constituents in actual danger. The Trump/Vance plan for making America combust again worse than Trump's final year as president. Combustion coming to your town next.

… Trump and Vance fomenting hate that is going to get someone killed, aside from all the chaos and terror members of that community are now experiencing.

6. MSNBC yesterday dropped voter intimidation coverage for this mess.

On the radio I was enjoying the investigative journalism while making a two hour drive.

Then it went to full time shooting chat, vacuous speculation, waste of time.

Trump knows how to play the media and distract them, and us.

JD Vance dropped his confession that he creates stories about immigrants and on the same day there's gunfire.

He was lying his ass off. Eyes blinking like a goddamn strobe light. Another criminal real estate guy working on new ways to launder money....
