“Trump first brought up her Time cover during his disastrous chat with Elon Musk on Monday night. “She looks like the most beautiful actress ever to live,” he complained. “It was a drawing, and actually, she looked very much like our great First Lady Melania. She didn’t look like Camilla [Kamala], that’s right. But of course, she’s a beautiful woman, so we’ll leave it at that, right?”
Many people pointed out that this was a very weird thing to say, as Harris looks nothing like Melania Trump in the cover image, and comparing your female opponent’s looks to your wife’s is generally a bad move. But Trump is still fixating on the image. He brought it up again during a rally in Asheville, North Carolina, on Wednesday evening, which was ostensibly about the economy but included lots of personal attacks against Harris.” — New York magazine,
“Trump Can’t Hide Jealousy Over Kamala Harris Time Cover” By Margaret Hartmann
Is Trump losing it?
Is water wet?
Jerry, last night at his Pennsylvania rally, Trump told the crowd he’s better looking than Kamala. You’re right: Trump’s all wet!
As Lily Tomlin put it in THE LATE SHOW, “Does the Pope shit in the woods?”
But no, I don’t think Trump is losing it. That ship sailed some time ago. He lost the plot and there is no evidence he recognizes that or is trying to get it back. Not only is he obsessed with Biden – “Which do you like better – Sleepy Joe or -” – but he even brought up the oldie but goodie, “Hillary’s E-Mails.”
Like THE APPRENTICE, his ratings are sinking with each new “season” and it is time to pull the plug.
Jeff, I just watched Lindsay Graham on MEET THE PRESS defend Trump. Lindsay also called Biden’s presidency “a disaster.”
Graham is a political remora…when he lost McCain, he has landed on Drumpf. Pathetic at best.
Todd, Graham–like JD Vance–has sold his soul to Trump.
Hilbilly Resentment probably didn’t have much of a soul to begin with. Amusing that he did co-sponsor one labor bill with Elizabeth Warren.
Losing it? There’s nothing left to lose!
Deb, I think Trump is feeling this race slipping away…and he’s going bonkers!
Unhinged would be an understatement. What would you expect from a sociopath who views the world as a “reality” TV series? Unfortunately, as long as he can blow the racist whistle, as long as his lickspittles like the loathsome Lindsay and Fox News support him, and as long as Putin’s trolls can pump out rancid disinformation on social media, he’ll keep on going.
Fred, and as long as fools like Elon Musk give Trump $45 million a month to cut their taxes, this race will be close!
Oddly enough, Musk apparently decided Not to do that very often. Surprise!
Todd, you can’t rely on Musk for anything other than weirdness.
This makes me really hope that Mrs Harris will win the elections.
Trump is such an a**hole that I often wondered how he made it the first time.
And how can any woman vote for this sexual ***expletive deleted***?
And even a black/coloured person?
OT:
I’m in a forum that handles tourism to the USA, many nice reports and pictures of travels but some time ago I had a problem with one of the Trumpguys there – he kept writing KamEla Harris …
So first they banned me from the politics part of the forum but in the end this guy was thrown out.
Wolf, Americans are divided and billions of “Dark Money” flow into the Presidential campaign from Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, etc. to divide us even more.
You’d think with all this dark money coming in some of it would flow my way. But no-o-o; I’m too rational.
Jerry, there’s money for chaos…but rationality, not so much.
Well, Jerry,, get elected or get rich, and you, too, can be bribed by such charmers. Most of them won’t do it for nice guys with large menageries.
Wolf, he “won” the first time because we have a ridiculous Electoral College, and Clinton ran an amateur-hour campaign, though she Did win the popular vote, which Trump never has.
We have fascists and reactionaries of all genders and ethnicities, alas, just as every other country does. Alternate List for Amerikkka.
Trump can only lose ill-gotten gains inherited from his father or grifted/embezzled from his many failed businesses. And the salary for being a TV figurehead/jackass.
And I suspect strongly that even with his cult, he will yet again fail to win the popular vote, and won’t (agan) win enough of the ridiculous Electoral Votes. Boo-hoo. As with Netanyahu, terrified of further prosecution after losing.
I think the TIME drawing looks a bit like MT, and it’s not too flattering an image of Harris. Trump’s notion he looks better than anyone is a very sad aspect of his malignant narcissism. Even I think I Iook less repulsive than he, and that’s not something I’ll say about nearly anyone.
Todd, Trump and Musk are neck-and-neck for Biggest Narcissist.
Trust fund fools in both cases.
Todd, thanks for this “Amerikkka”!
I should have known this when I was trying to fight the German/American right wingers. Because of thei leader’s nickname Kryptos i called them KKK = Kryptos and Konsorten Klan – but your Amerikkka is even better!
Of course we also have a lot of crazy right-wingers in Europe too. As soon as I read expressions like Family, Christian, Home Country I kow what’s coming up. But as long as they are below 20% (in Germany eg) it ‘s not a real danger imho.
Though to see those loonies get a majority in some EU states even is really disturbing.
It is. And if they managed to completely capture the CDU…well, maybe Poland isn’t far enough away. Fascism certainly is erupting worldwide at the moment, and has been for some years.
“AmeriKKKa” is certainly no my coinage,…sadly, going back through the decades of Tea Party, John Birch Society, the Ku Klux Klan itself, the Xian Right (or wrong), Huey Long’s and Charles Coughlin’s abortive campaigns (Long was assassinated, Coughlin was slapped down by the Vatican, as a RC priest), the Know-Nothings…it’s a sad litany. Now this idiot and his idiots and his useful idiots, who are as well as think they are using him, and they no better. Though they Should Know Better.
