He's was gonna elaborate on big tik tak little tik tak speech is my guess..... kinda sorry that didn't happen. It would have been a moment in out history books where a former president was giving speeches about not understanding inflation.
In a sense it's kind of the best timeline that he survived. No doubt it would have been a total circus if the attempt succeeded, full on riots and stuff. But instead, he survived hy a literal hair and now gets to watch his whole campaign slip through his fingers, all while deathly afraid of going outside
Solipsistic is a good term for him. Sometimes it does seem like he thinks other people are extensions of himself, hence why he can't take criticism. He never got past the stage when babies normally develop a sense of self and understand that the universe (and the other people it contains) aren't just an extension of themselves.
On the opposite, I was hoping he would crumble after this. He has his head so far up his own rump, he is so deeply immersed in his own lies and delusions that nothing ever gets to him.

Trump should retire, unironically. Dude was an actual assassination attempt victim. Dude desperately needs help for his completely justified trauma with capital T. He iS going through it. It genuinely saddens me and i completely understand as a victim of similar violence. He had it coming, but it just makes it all the more tragic. This will be one of those moments i would love to read about in a historical book. How everything fell apart so quickly for him just as he was about to gain unimaginable powers. This almost feels like divine intervention.
@@OsirusHandle i mean im not opposed to forced retirement in the form of prison lmfao, dude needs to retire from politics is what i was trying to go for lol
I originally thought that the assassination attempt was the worst outcome: that Trump and his followers would become more emboldened after the event. It seems to be turning out instead that it’s just impairing Trump’s ability to think strategically and is harming his public image.
Every time a conservative mentions inflation and the price of food I want to shake them and ask "Where is that money going?, if its up by 30% where did that go, who has that money now?"
Profit margins have stayed the same for food, the inflation is from increased money supply from things like the american rescue plan, the green new deal, interest payments on treasury bills, and the inflation creation act. If the money supply doubles but you keep your prices the same then you’re essentially cutting your prices to half of what they were before.
Not what economic papers i have read say. Also just common sense. Trump deregulated the banks. They can loan as much money as they want now for speculation. The rich are buying up everything and playing monopoly. Thats what us happening and trump is looking to create a obe man monopoly in america called dictatorship.
Dems did the smartest move they ever did in centuries by keeping biden until the last possible moment, making trump cocky, and then suddenly swapping biden with an alternative which is actually energetic and flipped the polls. That was crazy smart, if planned. 4D chess
He may lose his 2016 mojos but we can't take it for granted like we go this in the bag. Remember there's October Suprise. We can't underestimate his low energy. He could still win if we don't take his threat seriously. We must vote vote vote!
Yup. I would hope everyone is locked in by this point. I've seen the most apathetic democratic party in recent history turn into a fast moving and well oiled machine with purpose. But never underestimate dems ability to sink back into apathy.
@Acrylescent exactly. They can't campaign like it's a smooth sailing they have to keep attacking attacking attacking at thier own best on him. Keep telling voters about him and his involvement with Project 2025 and let them know hes a felon.
There will be mass election fraud conducted by Reps in red states. Everyone and especially student need to make sure to vote by mail wherever they can.-Reps will shut down polling sites and ones on college campuses
Self sabotage is a very narcissistic response when you know you won't beat someone at... whatever. Then Trump will be all like "I didn't want to win anyway, blah, blah once it's over. I'm not buying the ptsd thing. He's just old, tired and deteriorating mentally.
@@nicholasjones3207 Yup. It's way more likely he's sulking because he's running against (and losing) to Harris now. He only started acting this way after Biden dropped out. It's not ptsd.
He's probably wishing the zipper did him in. Think about it, we would have gone out at the peak of his post-presidential powers, wouldn't need to deal with an impending prison sentence, and he would have been marketable as a martyr. Now he's living long enough for consequences.
non-zero chance that Trump debates Harris and says "you're fired", then gets confused (since more recent memories are the first to go) why she hasn't left the boardroom
Historically he hasn't fired many people in person. On The Apprentice they filmed two different things to do it. And in person he'd send his bodyguard Keith Schiller to fire people. Then he fired Schiller by using the secret service. Then he tried to fire General Kelly in person and Kelly just kept doing his job and forced Trump to backdown by just ignoring anything about him not working for Trump anymore.
Even if Trump stays in but loses, that'd probably be a slow death for the GOP. They don't have anybody to replace Trump and Trump himself is increasingly becoming a liability. It's an unenviable position to be in and I couldn't wish it on anybody better.

@@popcornastoria I haven't had the opportunity to read it in full, but the first part is incredibly stupid. It's an autobiography where (ah shit, I don't know if YT is gonna yoink this comment if I actually write the author's name, whatever, you know who it is) spends most of his time explaining that he was bad in school because he was too smart and school was too jewish, didn't have friends at work because they were too dumb/socialist/jewish, wasn't admitted in art school because... well I'm sure you can guess. Loser incel sh!t. The glimpse I had at the actual political pamphlet part is really bad too. Dumba$$ wanted to convert all of Eastern Europe into a giant agricultural district (because, to quote Measurehead "the Kojko are obsessed with patate") and France into a giant garden-brothel-amusement park for his soldiers. Meanwhile in reality France is one of the main producers of food in Europe. But you know, let's turn it all into a giant Versailles-themed casino because the supreme leader bases all of his opinions on promotional postcards.
@@popcornastoria Edit: kinda sounds like I’m praising him but I’m pointing out his ineptitude at doing things and how bad his books where hitler was an interesting person coming out of World War One he got into communist ideology for most of the early 20’s formed his own socialist ideology very similar to communism tried to become a painter and failed at it while he was in prison for his first putsch he wrote me in kampf which if I remember correctly was so poorly written it had to be re-written before it was even published and still has grammatical errors that or it was hitlers second book many don’t know about “second book” his books are mostly dribble and did not sale well at all when they were released but they do provide an insight into one of the most known dictators in the world mainly how he justified his hatred of Jews and non Germans and pinned the blame of the Versailles treaty on those same groups
@thatcampingmann9543 nah I understood you!, keep infodumping tbh I think this shit is important for understanding history (and current events...), and I'm glad you said this!
Oh yeah. Everything bad that is happening to him would have been avoided if he had never run. I don't know if he's capable of regret but if he is, he's regretting. He's only still in this now because he's definitely in a place where the only way out of the hole is to dig deeper. But this is all very sad/awesome to watch.
trump can win if turnout on the left is low enough. I don't think that's going to happen though. But, you cannot underestimate the utter stupidity of the American electorate.
Trump needs strength to win, but it can’t stop there. He needs perseverance. Once that’s regained he needs be on point with a consistent message (not the ‘greatest hits’ or copying Hannity).
If Trump does lose, I don’t think he’ll try another Jan 6th. He seems tired and losing the election would probably be the straw that sundowns him for good
yeah I agree. he would complain a lot and there is a strong potential for small stochastic violence in his name but the sauce is not there for another well-organized multi-pronged effort to subvert the election results
The first Jan 6th could have and should have been the end of the Trump era. But media, corporate America and Republicans who denounced him at first, all helped to slowly rehab his image with a sizeable chunk of the public. I doubt they would be able to pull this off for a second time.

@@DeanCalhounhe will try to stir the white nationalists and bubbas into violence... But the election subversion is being handled by the project 2025/heritage foundation. That ball is rolling no matter how bad Trump gets.
The assassination attempt was on July 13 and only 8 days later Kamala became the heir apparent on July 21. Not enough time between the two dates to tell what's really bothering him. I'd think it's unclear if he has ptsd or if he quit doing rallies (and seems depressed) just because Kamala burst onto the scene and got bigger crowds. His crowd sizes were his go-to narcissistic brag and he can't (quite) brag about that anymore. (Democrats are definitely going to keep showing how Trump has empty seats and she doesn't.) I think these 'press conferences' are just a pivot to something she isn't doing (yet) so he can still brag he's doing *something* that makes him 'ultra-special'. He and his campaign were totally geared up to take down Biden and suddenly Biden was gone. Kamala had immediate enthusiasm, crowds, and was relatively young so all his planned attacks were rendered basically useless which made him mentally flounder....and he's losing. I think he's just been shocked to hell and back by Kamala entering the race and turning his world/ego upside down -- so he's turned into a lump.
I suffer from insomnia, but after listening to the latest trump speeches, I can fall right asleep. He should release a series of audio books to help people fall asleep
It's so funny for the GOP to pretend to address the cost of living crisis given they are the "Let corporations do what they want" party. Like what are you going to do about it? Retweet a wojak? Make another Groyper?
They sure like to claim that they will magically fix everything as far as rent and food prices, but fail to provide any kind of a comprehensive plan and show their math that would demonstrate exactly how it will work if they are able to have their way.
@@Zer0.-_right? Trump himself was claiming he would bring prices under control. Then Harris sketches policy on how they could go about that from medicine, to food, to rent, and the GQP shit their collective diapers
They're allergic to actualy policy discussion. Then the clown heads on faux news go on and claim the left has no policy and "erm ackchually the right has good, popular policies that normal, not weird, people all over the world like!"
Trump would have 100% won if biden didn't drop out. And the assassination attempt made that even worse. Swapping biden with kamala was the smartest possible decision the dems ever made. And Walz was the fucking best VP pick possible. Honestly it's understandable Trump would be demoralized: he had a sure win, turned into a statistical tie, turned into a losing race
I'm going to be the first to admit I was one of those pundits But only because I saw it happening first in Brazil with bolsonaro When the knife attack happened he went from 10% of the polling to actually winning the election in two months I had nam flashbacks for about a week and donny almost got done and survived
It isn’t just corporate media’s fault that we are still giving Trump and many other politicians and millionaires a platform to talk like it’s official or needed. The fault is with the majority of the population of America for Not condemning it as an egregiously damaging act that erodes the civil order that took years to establish. there used to be a time where anybody not worthy to be taken seriously was never given a chance to heard again if they are false and frivolous.
Funny hearing a guy who builds skyscrapers, whose exterior is mostly birds' worst enemy [windows] talk about how WINDMILLS (nowhere near as tall, opaque) are killing birds He never seems to mention the eyesore (and nose-sore) created by coal plants either
Of course Trump looks tired. It's exhausting to stay humble when you are the chosen one & had the hand of God personally shielding you from a showering of bullets, more bullets than then world has ever seen before. Give him a break. You all would have such an ego.
You can't stand for anything if you live without a spine you wretch. For years Trump rallied, most likely aided by stimulants. For years all it was was "sleepy joe joe old joe dumb joe bad" and now when you finally have the roles reversed, you are begging for people to lay off your daddy. Also we're leftists not liberals, we have guns too bro. You aren't cool because you know what sidearm Gavrilo Princip had on his person when he died. I release you. I could make a similar excuse for Biden. He was a civil servant for 40 years. Youd be tired too. But this isn't about empathy. And I hate Biden too. Dont even really like Kamala. But her VP is what populists pretend they are to get into office and then cut taxes for their rich friends. Trump doesn't care about me, he doesn't care about you. Im glad he is hollowed out. And it isnt from PTSD. PTSD is all about extreme emotional/physical reactions to thoughts of the traumatic event. He is watching it happen. He realizes it is the highest level of acceptance he had. He might actually be fantasizing about it not missing. Because then he would be a martyr, and not thought of as a loser. People like you could say "well he would of won! but the deep state got him!" He is against his first effective opponent, and floundering. Trump is most likely going to lose now. Even if miraculously he doesn't lose, you still one day will realize you were acting against the democracy, and voting for the fascist. The germans have a slight excuse that Hitler was appointed. Not only did you vote for it. You cheered at the book burnings. And asked us to stop making fun of him. You heard him applaud Elon Musk for firing striking workers. Who is for the people again?
I can’t tell if this is sarcasm, that is the state we are in today - a vain sinful idiot believes he is the chosen one and millions of sheeple believe him.😄
A couple months ago I would have said the only reason Trump's running is to stay out of jail, but given the recent Supreme Court ruling that Presidents are kings, I have no idea why he's torturing himself like this. Sheer ego I guess.
Clinically, PTSD is having severe emotional or physical reactions to THOUGHTS of your trauma. H He isn't traumatized. He is reliving his finest moment. He is cherishing it. Its all he has left.
@@Acrylescent you probably already know this, but it's worth the reminder that if some medications aren't responding well with your body and brain chemistry, it's good to consider changing it
I wish journalists had some balls at these press conferences. I want them to start asking him the real questions like: "Do you think the guards at your prison will be nice?" "Will you be 'rolling' with a gang once you're 'on the inside'?" "Do you think those heavy metal doors opening and closing at all hours will make it hard for you to sleep?"
I honestly believe the “watching over and over again” is an ego thing and not PTSD. Like I think he keeps whatever sane parts are left in him sane by stroking his own ego with those “hero shot” clip.
That's genuinely sad. As a veteran who experienced many traumatic events both during my time in the military and in my current career, this makes me feel genuine empathy for Trump and I hope he is able to process these events in a positive way and experience post-traumatic growth... Is what I would be saying if he wasn't a horrible person who is, all too late, reaping what he has sown with his violent and dehumanizing rhetoric since he started carrying the birther torch during the Obama years.
ONG the return of a classic! “Windmills are killing birds! They’re being wiped out… extinct … birds because of these windmills. They can’t see them. They go to fast”
Birds getting hit by windmills actually has an extremely low death rate of birds. It’s not a completely insignificant number, but usually birds are smart enough to not get hit by a windmill. Especially eagles, hawks, crows, falcons, and other large birds that are typically endangered. In fact large birds like to use windmills, highways, city blocks, and other tight flying spaces for hunting.
I can tell he has PTSD because he won't shut the fuck up about the assassination attempt. I did the same thing after I drowned. It's probably worse for him though because he's a pathological narcissist, so he almost lost the thing he loves most in the world
There is also self-checkout theft, like "accidently" forgetting to scan an item. About 15% of people do that, yet they would never do traditional shoplifting and don't consider it as bad.
He was really riding on that high where people were patting him on the back and saying how much of a badass he looked in that photo. But now that's over, and things are getting too real.
A hallmark symptom of PTSD is avoidance. Avoiding the type of situation or place or anything that reminds of the trigger. For him, that would be rallies or open public speeches. This is very aligned with someone with PTSD struggling with a traumatic experience.
I swear to fuck, I hope this election isn't even close, in Kamala's favor. They should call him Hyperbole Don. Oooooh price controls, so scary! Drill baby drill does nothing to control prices.
33:40 "I think this is a different kind of a race, all we have to do is define our opponent as being a communist or a socialist" Bro thats literally the same strategy theres nothing different there.
I mean, if someone had tried to take my life, I might have trouble sleeping, I might be afraid to go out into the open. Probably the sane for Trump. I mean, he's a born billionair, has he ever felt afraid before? Like, really afraid, not just spooked.
Rallies used to be his safe space, now they're his PTSD trigger. Seems pretty obvious why he isn't doing the intensive campaigning like he should be at this time.
Trump might have PTSD about the shooting, which is why of course Elon Musk brought it up during their interview despite the fact Trump specifically said he never wanted to talk about it again.

Every time a conservative mentions inflation and the price of food I want to shake them and ask "Where is that money going?, if its up by 30% where did that go, who has that money now?"
The rich have the money there’s your answer
The answer is the donor class - record profits.
The money is in the yams and the yams is the power that be.
Profit margins have stayed the same for food, the inflation is from increased money supply from things like the american rescue plan, the green new deal, interest payments on treasury bills, and the inflation creation act. If the money supply doubles but you keep your prices the same then you’re essentially cutting your prices to half of what they were before.
Not what economic papers i have read say. Also just common sense. Trump deregulated the banks. They can loan as much money as they want now for speculation. The rich are buying up everything and playing monopoly. Thats what us happening and trump is looking to create a obe man monopoly in america called dictatorship.
Making him spend money on Joe ultimately crushed him. He got grifted. Aww.
Dems did the smartest move they ever did in centuries by keeping biden until the last possible moment, making trump cocky, and then suddenly swapping biden with an alternative which is actually energetic and flipped the polls.
That was crazy smart, if planned. 4D chess
They actually believe Biden led them into a trap. It's glorious.
It was such a power move honestly. Make them spend money on fighting against Joe only for them to bring out the trojan that is Kamala Harris lol
@@refugex its just a centaur made of coconuts :0
The timing of the switch being after the RNC but before the DNC was an S tier outplay.
Intentional timing or not, it royally shafted the GOP.
He may lose his 2016 mojos but we can't take it for granted like we go this in the bag. Remember there's October Suprise. We can't underestimate his low energy. He could still win if we don't take his threat seriously. We must vote vote vote!
Yup. I would hope everyone is locked in by this point. I've seen the most apathetic democratic party in recent history turn into a fast moving and well oiled machine with purpose. But never underestimate dems ability to sink back into apathy.
He's still the same joke, but a joke that has a 50/50 shot of winning. Let's change those odds
@Acrylescent exactly. They can't campaign like it's a smooth sailing they have to keep attacking attacking attacking at thier own best on him. Keep telling voters about him and his involvement with Project 2025 and let them know hes a felon.
There will be mass election fraud conducted by Reps in red states. Everyone and especially student need to make sure to vote by mail wherever they can.-Reps will shut down polling sites and ones on college campuses
October what?
Self sabotage is a very narcissistic response when you know you won't beat someone at... whatever. Then Trump will be all like "I didn't want to win anyway, blah, blah once it's over. I'm not buying the ptsd thing. He's just old, tired and deteriorating mentally.
I think he’s just sulking
@@nicholasjones3207 Yup. It's way more likely he's sulking because he's running against (and losing) to Harris now. He only started acting this way after Biden dropped out. It's not ptsd.
Narcissistic collapse in real time
@@LisaGreene-o6x Exactly!!!!!!!!
When narcissists are confronted with the reality of their mortality, they can’t handle it. And he is also old and deteriorating
He's probably wishing the zipper did him in.
Think about it, we would have gone out at the peak of his post-presidential powers, wouldn't need to deal with an impending prison sentence, and he would have been marketable as a martyr.
Now he's living long enough for consequences.
Let’s hope he gets consequences; if he squeaks by and wins, he’ll get none.
non-zero chance that Trump debates Harris and says "you're fired", then gets confused (since more recent memories are the first to go) why she hasn't left the boardroom
Historically he hasn't fired many people in person. On The Apprentice they filmed two different things to do it. And in person he'd send his bodyguard Keith Schiller to fire people. Then he fired Schiller by using the secret service. Then he tried to fire General Kelly in person and Kelly just kept doing his job and forced Trump to backdown by just ignoring anything about him not working for Trump anymore.
i'd estimate the chances of him busting out the n word in the debate at higher than 50%
@@andrewkoster6506 75% chance that it's with a hard r
@@Your_LocalWizard So a 37.5 chance he says it hard R.
A Trump drop-out would effectively destroy the republican party
Even if Trump stays in but loses, that'd probably be a slow death for the GOP. They don't have anybody to replace Trump and Trump himself is increasingly becoming a liability. It's an unenviable position to be in and I couldn't wish it on anybody better.

It is PUNISHINGLY boring. Anyone who willingly reads that whole book, for any reason, is gonna be miserable, lmaoooo
@@popcornastoria I haven't had the opportunity to read it in full, but the first part is incredibly stupid. It's an autobiography where (ah shit, I don't know if YT is gonna yoink this comment if I actually write the author's name, whatever, you know who it is) spends most of his time explaining that he was bad in school because he was too smart and school was too jewish, didn't have friends at work because they were too dumb/socialist/jewish, wasn't admitted in art school because... well I'm sure you can guess. Loser incel sh!t.
The glimpse I had at the actual political pamphlet part is really bad too. Dumba$$ wanted to convert all of Eastern Europe into a giant agricultural district (because, to quote Measurehead "the Kojko are obsessed with patate") and France into a giant garden-brothel-amusement park for his soldiers. Meanwhile in reality France is one of the main producers of food in Europe. But you know, let's turn it all into a giant Versailles-themed casino because the supreme leader bases all of his opinions on promotional postcards.
@@popcornastoria
Edit: kinda sounds like I’m praising him but I’m pointing out his ineptitude at doing things and how bad his books where
hitler was an interesting person coming out of World War One he got into communist ideology for most of the early 20’s formed his own socialist ideology very similar to communism
tried to become a painter and failed at it
while he was in prison for his first putsch he wrote me in kampf which if I remember correctly was so poorly written it had to be re-written before it was even published and still has grammatical errors that or it was hitlers second book many don’t know about “second book” his books are mostly dribble and did not sale well at all when they were released but they do provide an insight into one of the most known dictators in the world mainly how he justified his hatred of Jews and non Germans and pinned the blame of the Versailles treaty on those same groups
@thatcampingmann9543 nah I understood you!, keep infodumping tbh I think this shit is important for understanding history (and current events...), and I'm glad you said this!
This is like reverse character development, character regression
My dad's term for this sort of thing is 'character assassination' and I literally couldn't think of a better turn of phrase
I think he's literally bored and regretful that he bothered in 2016, I think he just wants a pardon and has to go ahead with what he started.
Oh yeah. Everything bad that is happening to him would have been avoided if he had never run. I don't know if he's capable of regret but if he is, he's regretting. He's only still in this now because he's definitely in a place where the only way out of the hole is to dig deeper. But this is all very sad/awesome to watch.
His energy is gone. This is nothing like 2016. I still think he could win though, so vote
Kamala is not Hillary and Tim Walz was a great VP choice.
trump can win if turnout on the left is low enough. I don't think that's going to happen though. But, you cannot underestimate the utter stupidity of the American electorate.

If Trump does lose, I don’t think he’ll try another Jan 6th. He seems tired and losing the election would probably be the straw that sundowns him for good
yeah I agree. he would complain a lot and there is a strong potential for small stochastic violence in his name but the sauce is not there for another well-organized multi-pronged effort to subvert the election results
The first Jan 6th could have and should have been the end of the Trump era. But media, corporate America and Republicans who denounced him at first, all helped to slowly rehab his image with a sizeable chunk of the public. I doubt they would be able to pull this off for a second time.

The assassination attempt was on July 13 and only 8 days later Kamala became the heir apparent on July 21. Not enough time between the two dates to tell what's really bothering him. I'd think it's unclear if he has ptsd or if he quit doing rallies (and seems depressed) just because Kamala burst onto the scene and got bigger crowds. His crowd sizes were his go-to narcissistic brag and he can't (quite) brag about that anymore. (Democrats are definitely going to keep showing how Trump has empty seats and she doesn't.) I think these 'press conferences' are just a pivot to something she isn't doing (yet) so he can still brag he's doing *something* that makes him 'ultra-special'.
He and his campaign were totally geared up to take down Biden and suddenly Biden was gone. Kamala had immediate enthusiasm, crowds, and was relatively young so all his planned attacks were rendered basically useless which made him mentally flounder....and he's losing. I think he's just been shocked to hell and back by Kamala entering the race and turning his world/ego upside down -- so he's turned into a lump.
Size envy
For a narcissistic personality, it must be a shock that people don't like him.
I suffer from insomnia, but after listening to the latest trump speeches, I can fall right asleep. He should release a series of audio books to help people fall asleep
It's so funny for the GOP to pretend to address the cost of living crisis given they are the "Let corporations do what they want" party. Like what are you going to do about it? Retweet a wojak? Make another Groyper?
They sure like to claim that they will magically fix everything as far as rent and food prices, but fail to provide any kind of a comprehensive plan and show their math that would demonstrate exactly how it will work if they are able to have their way.
@@Zer0.-_right? Trump himself was claiming he would bring prices under control. Then Harris sketches policy on how they could go about that from medicine, to food, to rent, and the GQP shit their collective diapers

"Has Donald Trump already won the election?" Still remember the "pundits" after his shooting.
that was until the shooter was a fascist freak and the division narrative fell apart
Trump would have 100% won if biden didn't drop out.
And the assassination attempt made that even worse.
Swapping biden with kamala was the smartest possible decision the dems ever made. And Walz was the fucking best VP pick possible.
Honestly it's understandable Trump would be demoralized: he had a sure win, turned into a statistical tie, turned into a losing race
I'm going to be the first to admit
I was one of those pundits
But only because I saw it happening first in Brazil with bolsonaro
When the knife attack happened he went from 10% of the polling to actually winning the election in two months
I had nam flashbacks for about a week and donny almost got done and survived

Maybe Nancy Mace could give him some lessons; she was practicing in real time on CNN: "KA-mah-lah...(whoops)...ka-MAH-lah" 🙄
You can’t see the disparity in crowd sizes when you hold press conferences. 😉
He realised that he wasn't as safe and powerful, untouchable as he tought he was. He can feel the danger he faces and is probably scared.
It isn’t just corporate media’s fault that we are still giving Trump and many other politicians and millionaires a platform to talk like it’s official or needed. The fault is with the majority of the population of America for Not condemning it as an egregiously damaging act that erodes the civil order that took years to establish. there used to be a time where anybody not worthy to be taken seriously was never given a chance to heard again if they are false and frivolous.
Trump will say Kamala did a terrible job as VP but then when pressed on Vance and Project 2025 he'll say VP doesn't do anything. So what is it? 😂

You can't stand for anything if you live without a spine you wretch. For years Trump rallied, most likely aided by stimulants. For years all it was was "sleepy joe joe old joe dumb joe bad" and now when you finally have the roles reversed, you are begging for people to lay off your daddy. Also we're leftists not liberals, we have guns too bro. You aren't cool because you know what sidearm Gavrilo Princip had on his person when he died. I release you. I could make a similar excuse for Biden. He was a civil servant for 40 years. Youd be tired too. But this isn't about empathy. And I hate Biden too. Dont even really like Kamala. But her VP is what populists pretend they are to get into office and then cut taxes for their rich friends. Trump doesn't care about me, he doesn't care about you. Im glad he is hollowed out. And it isnt from PTSD. PTSD is all about extreme emotional/physical reactions to thoughts of the traumatic event. He is watching it happen. He realizes it is the highest level of acceptance he had. He might actually be fantasizing about it not missing. Because then he would be a martyr, and not thought of as a loser. People like you could say "well he would of won! but the deep state got him!" He is against his first effective opponent, and floundering. Trump is most likely going to lose now. Even if miraculously he doesn't lose, you still one day will realize you were acting against the democracy, and voting for the fascist. The germans have a slight excuse that Hitler was appointed. Not only did you vote for it. You cheered at the book burnings. And asked us to stop making fun of him. You heard him applaud Elon Musk for firing striking workers. Who is for the people again?
amen 🙏 🙏 🙏
I can’t tell if this is sarcasm, that is the state we are in today - a vain sinful idiot believes he is the chosen one and millions of sheeple believe him.😄
A couple months ago I would have said the only reason Trump's running is to stay out of jail, but given the recent Supreme Court ruling that Presidents are kings, I have no idea why he's torturing himself like this. Sheer ego I guess.

Clinically, PTSD is having severe emotional or physical reactions to THOUGHTS of your trauma. H He isn't traumatized. He is reliving his finest moment. He is cherishing it. Its all he has left.
He could still be hopped on anti-anxiety drugs after the attempt

I wish journalists had some balls at these press conferences. I want them to start asking him the real questions like: "Do you think the guards at your prison will be nice?" "Will you be 'rolling' with a gang once you're 'on the inside'?" "Do you think those heavy metal doors opening and closing at all hours will make it hard for you to sleep?"
Well, we know if he ever goes inside (which he won't), he'll be hanging with the white supremacists.

That's genuinely sad. As a veteran who experienced many traumatic events both during my time in the military and in my current career, this makes me feel genuine empathy for Trump and I hope he is able to process these events in a positive way and experience post-traumatic growth...

A hallmark symptom of PTSD is avoidance. Avoiding the type of situation or place or anything that reminds of the trigger. For him, that would be rallies or open public speeches. This is very aligned with someone with PTSD struggling with a traumatic experience.

Rallies used to be his safe space, now they're his PTSD trigger. Seems pretty obvious why he isn't doing the intensive campaigning like he should be at this time.
