Why did Trump tell Walz he was doing a great job when clearly he wasn't is the real question.

Pretty much for the same reason that Hulk Hogan was a headliner at the RNC convention. As has been said of Trump, "he's a weak man's vision of a strong man."

Trump (and many of his most rabid fans) are smooth-brained types who are suckers for the image of what they perceive as "strength," that's all. But, hey, that's where the country is nowadays: two completely synthetic people competing for the Presidency.

Fortunately for both candidates, the entire country is content to totally memory-hole the events of 2020.

Trump, "he's a weak man's vision of a strong man."

After watching him fight these last few years, including his immediate near death response to getting shot while making a speech, I guess I’m also one of those weak men who sees Trump as a strong man.

I am not a fan of some of his personality traits, but I am impressed by his strength and his willingness to fight for what he believes is right no matter what.

On the plus side, he seems to understand the world and has a better handle on how things work, what to do and what not to do, than any of the other candidates.

Hopefully, he can find a few like-minded souls in DC to help him do what needs to be done. His people picks have not been the best for some reason and that’s a definite minus.

Oh well … you fight with the army you have, I guess, and I will hope for the best once again.

You sound like any run-of-the-mill leftist with your slanders.

THere is NOTHING synthetic about Trump. MAGA is grass roots as it comes.
