On Thursday, Donald Trump walked into a room of journalists gathered at his Mar-a-Lago estate for a news conference. He didn’t look particularly happy.

His remarks came after a week in which Kamala Harris and her new running mate Tim Walz have dominated media attention, raked in millions of dollars and enjoyed a bump in polling. Trump’s media event seemed more an attempt to win back the spotlight than announce anything new.

      I mean not only does he have to compete with Harris and Walz, he has to compete against his own running mate. The press doesn’t care about a Harris/Trump debate because they know how it is going to go and it will be as dry as the Sahara, but a Walz/Vance debate? With Walz’s comedic timing vs Vance’s complete lack of awareness? That’s gonna bring in the ratings. At this point Trump is a distant 4th for ratings for them.

      BOHICA.

      Cuz “Bend Over, it’s getting weird again” is just an unpronounceable mess. BOIGWA. Boi-ghwah?bo-ig-wa?

      Sounds like one of the weird camp songs my SiL sings whenever we’re out hiking.

    Of all possible outcomes including but not limited to losing the election and going to prison, people ignoring him will be Trump’s biggest nightmare.

    Dementia Don the weird racist rapist with 34 felonies is pathetic. His campaign is just cringe and weird. I’d say he should drop out because it’s so embarrassing but I like watching this dumpster fire. He has to win or it’s jail for his ass.

    They didn’t show Kamala Harris rally and made sure to play dump. What do they mean steal the spotlight? It’s all his. This is 2016
