Yes. To your point, here's a highly abnormal politician who showed up at a food bank today to put a couple if bags of carrots in a box and then skedaddle. "Gawd, get me out of here pronto! Wait! Is that cute little girl holding ice cream?"

Notice his supervisor stationed at his side carefully watching his performance, too.

He became confused and went on to say "Where should I put these oranges?"

Well, he’s the reason they need the food bank.

Trump has become a folk hero... that is the reason for his support and the inability of the political class to to stop him.

The political class still thinks they are dealing with a single man and if they can defeat him they can go back to business as usual.

Trump is a movement and as the most visible aspect has become a legend embraced by the people for various emotional reasons. Legends are raised up by the people not crafted, top down, by political leadership.

“I’d be more willing to set Rick on fire’’.

That would do for a start.

I’d rather hang the smarmy prick with piano wire from a meat hook.

I refuse to believe Trump was sitting at the feet of the RNC. He’s a billionaire businessman. He hires Yes men and fires them when they quit saying Yes. He needs to hire people who don’t do anything. There is too much doing in Washington right now.

What you have and who you were doesn’t matter when you’re playing politics. Not when you’re playing with evil. And that’s what most most politicians are and the RNC definitely is

I have to believe democrats are scared witless having a demented Biden as their guy to face off against Trump this time. In 2016 they wee scared to death that Bernie would win the nomination, and their entire focus was rigging their party to get Joe in. Then they got lucky with covid and the election ballot mess and could get a demented guy over the finish line with fraud in 8 Deep Blue cities.

This time, Biden is not liked, his policies failed, he has a dozen major failures on his resume, and he’s obviously demented - they will change him out.

I think he will be more circumspect this time about his picks.
