Did something happen?

Many more women Trump has molested/harassed came forward, including a Miss Teen USA he was blatantly racist to. NYT ran a big article about it, and now he's suing them for libel. Then a racist jackass came in here and me and the other three black posters yelled at him to the echoes of "lol nice meltdown" from white america, and then the postmortem took a while, but now we're back to talking about Dread Abuela and Trump's brain disease

It's a logical theory except for the part where what's really been destroying the GOP lately is Trump's lifetime of godawfulness. That's a pretty long time for a sleeper campaign, to start groping teenagers decades beforehand.

We're very lucky as a nation that the white supremacist fascist presidential candidate has a history of sexually assaulting white women and not paying taxes. If neither of those things were true then it would just be business as usual for the GOP.

This easily could have gone the other way and been quite a lot worse if Trump were just a little less of a shitlord and a little bit better at actual politics.

We know why Trump is doing what he's doing but I just can't believe it.

Like, I don't understand how him, nor anyone around him, is completely incapable of looking one step further. Trump must remember all these perverted/sexual assault things he did. He must remember, right? Did he honestly think he would be able to parade out Bill's alleged victims, claim he's never forced himself on a woman, and not have his past stories come out?

Does he think he's still a reality TV show host? I could see how he could get away with this kind of poo poo before; threatening/suing people to cover poo poo up.

I think he still doesn't realize he's in a whole different ballgame now, where being a belligerent rear end in a top hat does not work. Pissing off the press right now is gonna make them rain down harder than he ever knew they could.

Couple pages back, but this isn't surprising. Trump is a man with a severe case of narcissistic personality disorder who has spent his entire life insulated from every wrongdoing by his father's money. He has never faced any consequences for his actions. On the contrary, he's actually celebrated for being entertainingly "outrageous" when he does something that, for any person of lesser influence, would be utterly unacceptable. He cannot process the idea that he could really fail or that he could face any lasting negative impacts for all his actions. As far as he thinks, the world exists to please him. His rages come when it fails to do so. When it seems his inflated self-image is in danger, he always goes back to the comforting womb of yes-men he has built for himself.

This pattern continued for decades on end until he grew so bold that he thought he could become President: the position that was rightful for a winner like him. It never worked out until the stars aligned last year and the GOP base was perfectly primed for him. He courted the worst of this and many other countries by spewing the worst, most vile venom he has and was cheered for all of it. Finally, the world saw him for the glorious god-man he was. It was the greatest high of his life. Sure, many mocked and hated him, but those are all just losers, he told himself. The cheering crowds eager to hang on his every word and bow to his every whim are the true America, he thought. All he had to do was attack that weak woman on the other side and the recognition of the world would finally be his.

Then, within the last month, something changed. Suddenly people kept saying mean things about him and bringing up his past. They claimed that he actually had to apologize?! That horrible woman managed to brainwash those crowds at the debates into not hanging on his words and that worthless moderator didn't even beat her for it?! Worse, all those GOP politicians, his rightful vassals, dared to betray him? ! What gall!!! Don't they see his magnificence?! Well, he'll get them. He'll get them all. He was obviously just playing too nice all this time. If they don't bow before him and give Lord Trump the respect he deserves, he'll just crush them all with his brilliant might. It's got to work!

So no, Trump does not understand that he's making so many mistakes. He's an overgrown child and more or less an attention addict. He can't comprehend that he's failing so badly. He lives only in Trumpland and likes it that way.

tl;dr: he thinks that trump is still mad at the republican party for having pat buchanan and his people suddenly show up and hijack the reform party out from under him in 2000, so he's deliberately trying to destroy the republican party from the inside out as a form of revenge.

This almost seems plausible.

...Except the boat that sunk was the annual KKK ragatta and you are eating popcorn watching them drown.

Do you think anyone has told them that early voting / absentee voting, which is 32% of all votes, has started in the key states of North Carolina, Iowa, and (today) Ohio, among others?

Kinda blunts the impact of the news if as much as 1/3 of the people have already voted.

Ventura is also a crazy man who beleives Churchill, Truman, Stalin, and Chang-Kai Shek (lol wat :mao: ) made a deal at the end of WW2 that all wars will be fought in the third world and in such a way there will be no clear winners. All because the "elite" felt vulnerable cause nukes meant they could be touched, or something.

I don't personally think trying to tie people to Trump is going to be as effective of a strategy in a year or two. A lot of people will throw this election down the memory hole. I wish to be proven wrong tho.
