Donald J. Trump’s allies want him to talk about the issues
His entire political campaign strategy has been about attacking his opponent personally. He did it with Hillary in 2016, With Biden in 2020, and again with Biden in 2024. He tried to do the same with Harris, but he hasn't found something that sticks yet and that's causing a lot of problems.
This is what you get when you promote a guy who can't do anything but insult people, even if he will agree to sign anything for anyone that says "You're doing a good job, champ"
There's only one thing Trump wants more than the power of the Presidency: Attention.
He hates that the news is dismissive of him and are instead following the Harris campaign with excited interest. It seems to be getting in the way of unifying their message.
The smart GOP politickers (e.g. Senator John Thune) know the path to victory is to keep quiet on the worst part of their policies for now and repeat policy buzzwords and attacks until the rank-and-file fall in line. Trump isn't patient enough to play that game.
Quoting Ben Shapiro:
"You were better off in 2019 than you are in 2024.”
Why not 2020? Trump was President for the whole of 2020.
I mean, it's fairly obvious that COVID changed many things even in countries that actually did something about it...
It also caused massive inflation and put the economy on shaky ground, which is really what they want to pin on Biden. So going back to 2019 makes sense but is dishonest.
"Makes sense but is dishonest," is Ben Shapiro's entire existence. (Except the parts that also don't make sense.)
Could it be that he’s struggling to focus because he’s a senile old sociopathic traitor to his country?
He is struggling to focus because of the dementia. Age, syphilis, and Adderall abuse have taken their toll.
I doubt that you’ll find any supporters with enough integrity and clear vision to report those things to the media. Nice try, nyt.
