Where is/can Donald Trump take US (sic)?

[Knobby22]

Trumps onto something.
Why don't we stop colon cancer by banning colonoscopies.

Also as I said before, something will happen and Trump wont be there in November. Let's hope they don't arrange an accident for him.

I think the most likely scenario is that he will be threatened and will resign for 'medical reasons'.

That was sad. Very surprised Trump came out of the chopper with his tie off and looking so downbeat.
Not a good look and he obviously knew the Press would be there.

The Lincoln Projects take on the Tulsa (non)rally.

Turning it into something it's not....
The latest tactic of the left (been in effect for a while) is to make it look like Republican voters are deserting trump.

Media has been on board by throwing out headlines in papers to keep crowds away. You also have activists harassing trump voters online and in public. If you are a known trump supporter then: spitting in your food, crowd mugging, destroying your business etc.

Trumps one upside for election is the feverish supporter base. So the first rally was a very good coordinated attack by the different groups. Negative headlines, inflated attendance numbers, followed by gloating at the attendance.
It's first rally back and personally I think trump is a bit flat, possibly doesn't want to fire too early.

It's a tactic that must be working to some degree.

the feverish supporter base.

Isn't it possible that promoting an all in rally in a State that is seeing accelerating numbers of COVID infections might look a bit dangerous?

The fact that local and National health officials publicly said such a public enclosed rally represented a significant danger and really shouldn't happen ?

The fact that anyone who came to the rally had to acknowledge the risk the faced with COVID and that they personally were taking that risk?

And then 6 Trump aides announce they are infected ?

The inflated attendance numbers ? Do you mean the million people who allegedly signed expressions of interests? (Yes they were punked. I'm surprised no one took more interest in the HUGE numbers at that stage)

Comparing Trump to George Wallace.

Stop comparing Trump to the infamous racist George Wallace. It's unfair to Wallace

If Trump does win the election Bas, I reckon you will have a breakdown, you have a lot of emotion tied up in climate change, the corona virus and Trump.
Make sure you take a bit of you time.
What is the advertisement? "Are you o.k mate".

If Trump wins the election there'll be far more to worry about than this little ant.

But they are. That ad that Bas posted just before your post is from The Lincoln Project. These are a group of Republicans opposed to Trump who are now actively campaigning against him, even if it means supporting Biden. And there are other similar groups. In fact some of the most effective ads I have seen this campaign are from The Lincoln Project.

The only thing to worry about this term was incessant leftwing whinging. There were a lot of real threats under the previous administrations that were a lot more damaging.

They are a money making scheme. Pulling dollars on trump hate. It's a great way to pull dollars from trump haters. They are apparently "True conservatives". If you check their ads it's mainly to attack trump. They are not widely supported by republicans its all democrats. More on the financial side here:



You have to read the whole thread not just the first post.

Donald Trump walking off the chopper after Tulsa with tie in hand and looking like xhit was always a bad look. The clips that are setting that walk to music are powerful.

Absolutely Moxjo. They are pure attack ads on Donald Trump.
And that is because he is such a venal, lying, dangerous piece of merde with no redeeming features.

The fact that a significant core of long term Republician supporters feel compelled to speak out against him and form the Lincoln Project to undermine his 2020 campaign is historic.

The Lincoln project doesn't need widespread support from Republicans to kill Trumps campaign. Switching 3-4% of the current votes to the Democrats would create a landslide.

Trumpers don't believe in coronavirus so they are immune.

They are viewed as traitors and viewed as unhinged.
I think trump will lose based on other factors.

Dems are trying hard to sound stupid though.
"Defund the police", CHAZ and the rioting won't work in their favor.

July/August will give a better feel. Personally I think Dems are a return to a dirty past. Pelosi, Schiff and others are some of the greatest manipulators on the planet. You could leave them in for 20 years and nothing would change. Except they would have gotten richer.

Realistically all of trump policies are what Australia has pretty much done. In fact we were worse. From slowing illegal immigration numbers, to border security.

As bad as trump is, he has cleared out the Whitehouse of some entrenched corruption.
He said very early on "You wouldn't believe what is going on in here".
I'm still of the opinion trump needs another term to really blow it up. He won't necessarily make it better but he will kick it off.
Bernie would have possibly changed things up. But he was nullified fairly quickly.

Someone needs to tear it all down. No one has done it till now.

The US is lost. It will become a communist country.
Europe (west) will follow suit and eventually Australia.

Australia's biggest problem is China and a changing Asia Pacific. China is making moves and we will eventually have to decide on which way we start to develop relationships.

Agreed.

Whether it is this time or next time or sometime after, the us will be some sort of cross between Soviet Russia and and the fictional idiocracy.

Left have played the long game very well. The only thing I don't understand is to what end?

Life under the radical left in our Western countries will make Nineteeneightyfour seem like a right wing manifesto and quaintly utopian.

I never thought I would ever die on that particular hill but quite prepared to go down fighting.
