It's undeniable. Trump is becoming desperate.

No more dog whistles: Come on, Christians, vote for me. This will be the last America election ever!

He knows he's picked a loser in J.D. Vance. He's wondering if he can get away with dump and switch.

Debating Kamala terrifies him. He's wondering how she could possibly defeat his greatness. He's wondering if he should just go ahead and openly call her the "N" word at his next rally.

We all know that everything he's touched in his life has turned to shit. He's always been blind to that, but just maybe he sees that his own campaign is turning to shit.

He may have caught a glimpse of himself as an aging, ignorant buffoon. Who knows? A rare moment of seeing reality may have driven him further into his insane comfort zone of Earth 2.

But watch his next rally. He is a diminished creature, rapidly sliding down the slope of history.

A desperate, cornered animal is the most dangerous, so we can't let our guard down. But I believe that, by the time he loses in November, he'll be nothing more than a fading punchline.

... and how the entire party seems to have decided that lies are the only way they can win again. Yeah, he's definitely weird, but it's his sociopathy that's dangerous.

that the Democrats were going to have him killed to make way for another candidate. Ridiculous of course, but par for the course in their minds.

Now with the Magats and Trump, if things don't improve just say I would watch my back if I were JD. We know how they think and of course there would be that coveted 'sympathy bump'.

about Vance as VP pick. He said Biden would have won anyway, and this way OFM has a scapegoat for when he loses.

YES.

there is no successor to Trump. he is a cult of personality. no republican can give that cult leader charm that he can. with any luck, mainstream moderate r's will take back the party and we can go a good bit without literal threats to democracy, but his cult will go out with a bang. expect a scary time heading into election season and inauguration. don't take your eyes off the ball. we could be rid of him. forever.
