The Trump train is running out of steam [View all]

Does Donald Trump seem … different lately? If you’ve been wondering why the former president has been acting especially bizarre since President Joe Biden ended his reelection bid, you aren’t alone.

Trump’s recent campaign events, the few he’s held, have veered further into the incoherent, even for a guy who routinely forgets the name of his own doctor.




Trump has also held far fewer rallies this August than he did at the same point in 2016 or 2020, and his laid-back schedule has some MAGA insiders worried that their candidate is blowing it for the GOP just as Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign prepares for an all-out sprint to November.

Harris’ surging poll numbers have clearly thrown the 78-year-old Trump off his game. Voters seem to be noticing his light campaign schedule—and they’re punishing the entire Republican Party for it in the polls. If that trend holds, the GOP’s summer vacation will end up costing them dearly in November.
