President Donald Trump arrives at Election Day on Tuesday toggling between confidence and exasperation, bravado and grievance, and marinating in frustration that he is trailing Joe Biden, whom he considers an unworthy opponent.
“Man, it’s going to be embarrassing if I lose to this guy,” Trump has told advisers, a lament he has aired publicly as well. But in the off-camera version, Trump frequently exclaims, “This guy!” in reference to Biden, with a salty adjective separating the words.
Trailing in most polls, Trump has careened through a marathon series of rallies in the past week, trying to tear down Biden and energize his supporters, but also fixated on crowd size and targeting perceived enemies like the news media.
The president, his associates say, has drawn encouragement from his larger audiences and from a stream of relatively upbeat polling information that advisers have curated for him, typically filtering out the bleakest numbers.
His mad dash to the finish is a distillation of his four tumultuous years in office, a mix of resentment, combativeness and a penchant for viewing events through a prism all his own — and perhaps the hope that everything will work out for him in the end, the way it did four years ago when he surprised himself, his advisers and the world by winning the White House.
But by enclosing himself in the thin bubble of his own worldview, Trump may have further severed himself from the political realities of a country in crisis.

“All the fake news that’s fit to print on paper that’s fit to wipe with”

You people are going to prison!
NYT via Yahoo, drug through sh## to even bigger sh##
The more writers in a NY Times article the more ridiculous it is.
Their (NYT) tears will sting and taste bitter later tonight!
I would be surprised if anything less than the threat of death is keeping the media in perfect lock-step. Not even a peep of dissent from a bottom tier reporter.
On the other hand, complete submission to sin could do the same.

Their masters, the ChiComs and George $oreA$$, do not take defeat very well.
So your first sentence above may be a reality for them
