It’s not news that Donald Trump is the worst of his own enemies, but he outdid himself with his latest bizarre behavior.
His social media warning early Friday that “death and destruction” could follow if he’s criminally charged in the Stormy Daniels case came as he posted an image of himself holding a baseball bat next to a photo of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s head…
… The rant was perfectly timed — if Trump’s goal was to stomp out growing public unease over how Bragg is stretching a novel legal theory to indict him…

Seems right to me!
Where is Ron? Running silent in the deep state.
right now, Trump alienates as many voters as he attracts
you can’t win a campaign like that ... Trump needs more than just MAGA voters to win
Ronald Reagan never went out of his way to alienate voters
Yup.
Yes, some of his comments are bizarre and lead me to wonder where they’re coming from. His nasty comments turn me off.
You’re way too highbrow for the average America who would just think that trump is fighting back against unjust prosecutors

Baloney.
RE: Those who claim to “read” Trump, have a very poor batting average
Perceptive. When it comes to negotiating and messaging, we’re in Trump’s wheelhouse.
You are correct, of course, about Don's behavior.
Trump does not do this to widen appeal. The jackass comments are meant to jazz up his base - it is rally season. This is Trump's primary face. Like all politicians, he'll get out his general face later.
The Art of his 2024 Deal is in having The Don's bully personality campaigning as the politician version of George Floyd victim-in-chief. Flawed people can still be popular if perceived as a victim of corrupt power. The sympathy vote. People on the Right already know he is such a victim. He plays this angle up and will continue till November next because it is true and it appeals to middle and Right. Especially to emotion-driven voters.
Trump loves the NY case. He would not be where he is today in the polls without it.
“The 64 Dollar question is, “Are there enough Rational Americans to win elections?” I tend to doubt it.“
There are more than enough rational Americans to win elections, which is why President Trump won in 2020.
Or do you believe he lost?
There aren’t enough to remove the ability for them to get away with cheating.
I never said anything about ending his political career, just about his capacity to hand ammunition to his enemies. He won’t lose a single supporter over this but he won’t ever gain any either, and as Hamlet said, “ there’s the rub.”
Bingo
My favorite thing about him was his mean tweets.
Get in their faces. Every time, every opportunity. If that makes you think he is his worst enemy, you are working for the enemy.
It’s not me that I’m concerned about, but those who might be so put off that he loses the support he desperately needs to succeed.
Unproductive, in a word. Other words apply as well.
“Yes,right on cue a package of fake ricin with a death threat was sent to Bragg with surprise a Florida address!”
The FBI has offices in FL
The white powder routine is a standard false flag technique
I wonder why Murdoch has it in for Trump?
What’ s the basis for the hard feelings?
Did Trump steal one of Murdoch’s gals,once upon a time?
LOL. How did boorish Trump win in 2016 then?
Let me remind y’all he won in ‘20 as well only to cheated in the end.
