Hmmm I don't think going after VA gov's is the right move Donald. Especially lying about what they did

VA governors are weirdly popular - Terry Mac is least popular gov in over a decade despite +20 approval rating

I'm concerned because teleprompter Trump is way less evil sounding and he could recover in his polls and have a shot at winning.

At this point if all he's doing is talking to Hannity and reading a teleprompter, he's got no chance. The debates are going to be a disaster, everything he's said that's been unscripted this week is a complete joke.

He wished it could be as respectable and orthodox as spying. But somehow in his hands the traditional tools and attitudes were always employed toward mean ends: cloak for a laundry sack, dagger to peel potatoes, dossiers to fill up dead Sunday afternoons ...

It's unclear whether he is mentally able to prepare for a debate. If Conway can sway him to try it will be the first time he's prepared for them, he's pretty good with facts figures for his property unveilings.

I'm guessing they'll go the Sarah Palin prep route: try and get him to memorize ten answers to anticipated questions and tell him to use one of the answers even if the question isn't anticipated.

Maybe he knows he's going to lose so he's just going to places he'll get big crowds that will make him feel good.

I'm not anymore. If he's not saying anything outrageous he's dying. He's like a shark swimming through a sea of insults and bigotry. Either he's on a leash and nobody cares, or he's saying something offensive and alienating more people.

Being able to tone down his nature, is not getting to cancel out his various personality defects and complete cluelessness on the campaign organization side.

Trump has 2 modes, either he's shouting that a man of Mexican heritage is part of the evil Mexican hivemind that seeks to thwart him, or he's boring and reading off a teleprompter and constantly saying his actual plans will come 'soon'.

So which exactly worries you here?

I'm still angry at how transparent a conjob that was. She could have snuck in some non-sequitur pivots to rehearsed lines like everyone else, but nope, she introduced herself and said she'd sometimes be disregarding tough questions and instead answer her own questions because the gotcha journalist moderators were crooked.

if it happened right at the start of the RNC it would potentially have been scary. right now even if he keeps this up he loses by 8 and he won't keep this up (because as soon as the polls don't move or even if a single +C outlier comes out he's going full Breitbart)
