What’s bothering a lot of people is Trump’s antics not being helpful at a time when winning an election like this is absolutely crucial. The country is a train wreck and we desperately need to focus on defeating the people who inflicted this mess on us.
In other words, Trump’s attacks at this time are bad form and even worse timing. After all, he has the next two years to unleash all the salvos and he wants to against his party opponents.
Was it too much to expect him to give it a rest for just a couple of days leading up to this election? Some things are more important than Trump’s ego.
Actually, Trump is inadvertently making DeSantis look like the adult in the room.
Good points there.
To which I’d add: Some extremely pro-Trump folks here (not you, Starboard) are missing the bigger picture. Let’s say Trump is 100% correct about DeSantis.
Trump’s comments are still counterproductive, as they weaken his (Trump’s) position with his own base. Yes, one could call those folks “snowflakes”, and maybe they are. Nevertheless, Trump is starting to give those folks doubts. We see that right here on this thread.
And in politics you need every vote you can get.
