His campaign managers are concerned he would say that publicly? Why?! Why do we still act like his cultists would be bothered? Why do we act like they have a fraction of humility and demeanour left in their bodies? They would love to hear that. Where the fuck have you been the last 8 years? Did you pay any attention?

The issue they have is, Trump can’t win with just his base. He needs to appeal to at least some percentage of voters outside of that group. It seems like he’s been doing everything he can to push anyone who isn’t already all in on him away since Biden stepped down.

Trump has never won the popular vote, his 2016 victory was based on highly gerrymandered areas with low populations and a high number of electoral votes. America is being held hostage by wealthy donors.

They aren’t worried about alienating his base. They don’t want to galvanize hers.

They don’t care if he says it. They just care if he gets caught saying it. Big distinction. They know their candidate is a racist shit bag.

“That is not language President Trump has used to describe Kamala, and it’s not how the campaign would characterize her.”

The most interesting thing about this statement is they have set Trump up to fail. Because you know he’s going to say that into a microphone at some point during this campaign.

“It’s ok. He says negative things about a lot of people.”

This is the excuse I got when I pointed out video of TFG mocking the disabled reporter to a die-hard Trumper. Also, she has a kid with Downs. Still didn’t break the Trump spell over her. She used to be normal.

The GOP openly accuses the left of being literal demons who sacrifice babies to Satan. J.D. Vance wrote the foreword for a book called Unhuman that, again, accuses democrats of literally being demons. We’re past the point of decorum.
