A key part of Donald Trump's speech from California on Friday was trashing Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom for the state's fires. One comment he made is turning heads, however. “And Gavin Newscum is gonna sign those papers, and if he doesn’t sign those papers, we won’t give him money to put out all his...
I still don’t understand how he’s anyone’s candidate with statements like this.
I also don’t understand why every media outlet isn’t, and hasn’t in the past, just headlined all this blatant self-interest in earnest.

Because Trump is not a problem. He is the result of a much bigger problem.
He‘s still a problem. Having 5 liters of oil dumped on my garage floor is the symptom of a bigger problem. But it‘s still a problem, because I have to clean up the shit from the floor anyways.
A symptom is not a problem. Fighting symptoms will not solve your problem. Cleaning shit while someone has perpetual diarrhea will not clean your floor.
My point was that both things are problems. Wen need to solve both. As long as Trump is spewing lies and hate around, we can‘t solve the bigger problem.
Oligarchs, basically
Us vs them mentality at level 900. You must check all of these boxes and never question our dear leader or you’re one of them!
The debate messed things up because his loyal faithful have to contend with others’ opinions laughing at the absurdity.
Now they can go back to their carefully crafted Fox narrative cave and not come out until election time, fully invested that dear leader is their savior!
Also, dear leader must not debate again at all costs.
No, I just argued with a repub relative. “I heard trump did fantastic.” And they probably won’t watch the debate, just take cues from pundits. So there will be folks who remain blissfully ignorant of what actually happened during the debate.
