This was posted and hour ago here on substack. I can’t find any coverage on tv. Imagine if Harris said it!

Trump just said it should be "illegal" for polls to show him losing, complained that the election is going "bad" for him, and said he "wouldn't mind" if someone in his crowd "shot" at the free press during his closing rally in Pennsylvania.

This may have been his most chaotic and desperate rally to date, and the surest sign yet that he is on track to lose the election to

Anyone with an ounce of honesty or integrity has to admit trump's actions the past month plus have been bizarre. That doesn't mean you shouldn't vote for him.

The problem is if you can't or won't admit it, then you just haven't been watching (or you don't care he is nuts). He's made zero, ZERO effort to reach those voters in the mushy middle. His every action has targeted the voters he has firmly secured with his traditional trump voters.

Plus, we've all seen the latest rantings about a stolen election. Virtually no chance of that being the case, but the whine has been constant and often. Throw in his comments at MSG where he and Mike Johnson announced they had a plan in place and we can only anticipate how ugly the next month can be.

Life will go no matter who wins. It's always important to remind voters that is the case.

The media may cover some of Trump’s words and actions but honestly for the most part they are covering for him. If Biden had a garbage truck and couldn’t climb in without stumbling it would have been on every station on an endless loop. My father had Lewy Bodies and his physical limitations were obvious to us very early on. Way too many examples to cover, let’s just say the evidence of is cognitive issues is mounting and the media covers for him daily. They are scared he might win and could take them off the air. If they had been honest with the people for the last 3 months he wouldn’t have a prayer.

What media would that be? I know Fox isn't quick to condemn Trump but they showed the entire video.

May not change your mind but it's best to have a little more context regarding fellating a microphone.

Regarding Trump's mental state, it can't be any worse than Joe Biden's which a thoroughly dishonest Kamala Harris helped his handlers cover up. We know what she is. There is at least some hope that J. D. Vance would do the right thing if Trump similarly deteriorated.

J.D. Vance was promoting a guy who says our republic has failed and it’s time for us to have a monarchy. I don’t trust JD Vance as far as I can spit.

I did quick check of the left-wing websites and media and can find no reference to Trump calling for a monarchy. You need to check your sources. You can trust Vance or not, but you don't have to wonder about Harris. She is dishonest, phony and dumb.

If Harris is dumb, trump is brain dead. Seriously bro, when you watched the Harris/trump debate, which one looked like a moron?

I get it Curtis, you don't like Harris, so don't vote for her. In my opinion, she is a genius when compared to trump. Steve is spot on, he has slipped year after year and his actions are childish and boorish.

I said JD not Trump. And the man he looks up to is a Peter Theil groupy named Curtis Yarvin. He talked about his ideas on a podcast and many maga have said it’s great.

Actually, you said: "J.D. Vance was promoting a guy who says our republic has failed and it’s time for us to have a monarchy."

I never heard of Curtis Yarvis but I found this: https://underthrow.substack.com/p/curtis-yarvin-the-good-the-bad-and

He appears to be one-man think tank who presents ideas - some good, some not so good. From what I've read, Yarvis does not think our democracy as it is presently constituted is effective or democratic. He thinks it was more effective under FDR who was often able to circumvent the checks and balances. There is no indication J. D. Vance agrees 100% with the man or that he has promoted his ideas - only that he is influenced by his ideas.

Just as you are influenced by your reading but are not necessarily in full agreement with what you read.

This will be my last response to this thread. You said you checked and Trump has not called for monarchy. That is why I pointed out. I was talking about JD Vance. Have a good evening.
