Trump has also fielded calls from donors who are upset about his running mate, JD Vance, and the Ohio senator’s previous comments including referring to Harris as a ‘childless cat lady.”
Trump dismissed calls for Vance to be replaced on the ticket, but he also asked advisers if they were aware of the comments before Vance was selected.
At the Hamptons dinner, Trump also downplayed the Democrats’ strategy of painting the GOP as “weird.”
“Not about me. They’re saying that about JD,” Trump said, according to the Times.
Oof. Incredible lack of self-awareness while also throwing your running mate under the bus lol

Trump whipped a violent mob into a frenzy ready to actually lynch his last running mate. JD just needs to look at Pence to see what his own future holds.
If they win, they are going to 25th Ammendment Trump. Then it will be Peter Thiels puppet in charge.
Make no mistake about it.
I read that at first as “Make America White Again” and was thinking “since the beginning”
I feel like it was the kind of thing that worked better before articles were written about it and then literally every article and comment since then has included the word.
Openly talking about it as a strategy feels like it’s turning it into our version of “Let’s Go Brandon” in a way.
I thought the same thing, but it has sparked a huge discussion about if the word “weird” is a good label for Trump, Vance, and the most fervent MAGA supporters. When you’re fighting a cult, I have a feeling it works.
Lmao does anyone else remember the shooting? Everyone seemed so convinced his win was in the bag after that “iconic” photo. Now it’s a big whatever.
that’s one of the reasons why the dropout was a good idea. it came so soon after the shooting and made such waves that it completely drowned the shooting.
it helps that a. he didn’t really get hurt and b. he’s super unpopular, so the reaction from people who weren’t already in the maga cult ranged from “don’t give a shit” to “you had one job”.
i think he’s super demoralized so he doesn’t even feel like campaigning. the press conference was probably people around him telling him that Harris has been dominating the media and getting ahead in the polls so he had to show his orange mug before people completely forgot about him (ah, we should be so lucky).
mind that one of the factors in 2016 was that he was so outrageous that he got billions of dollars worth of free advertising. now people are talking about Harris, walz and couches.
Not even Donald’s ear remembers the shooting. It was back to regular condition just days later.
That’s the power of putting a maxipad on your ear. It’s got electrolytes!
Joe leaving the race effectively wiped out anything from that event. Trump for once is the victim of the mass adhd that is our current media and cultural environment. I myself have forgotten several times that he was even shot at, and he’s not good at keeping it front and center in anyone’s mind either.
I wonder if he’s worried the 2nd time won’t be just a shrapnel knick, and that’s why he’s not leaving home.
I remember insiders saying that he was scared he’d get shot even before it happened. Wouldn’t be surprised.
It still helped him. I don’t know where you’re going with this. It created a great story and narrative.
It’s a dog whistle. He just wants to constantly remind his racist cult that she’s black, so they won’t focus on him being senile, belligerent, and stupid.
let him spend his energy on people who will anyways vote republicans no matter what even if he is 105 years old
I live in a blue state. Almost all of the kids I see nowadays are mixed race. This sort of shit is almost over. As soon as the boomers die out, there won’t be a majority white voter.
In some far future utopia we will’ve all interbred and evolved to a nice caramel/olive skin and our descendents will imagine us as cavemen. If we mange to make it that long.
I gotta say this is actually something I’m disappointed by.
Not because I want white people to survive forever or think any race is better than the other but because I like the idea of living in a world with other races. Like a fantasy setting with different types of elves or whatnot.
I like the diversity and would love to see just how different each race could become while still being the same species.
I don’t glow in the dark, I’m just pretty much see-through. I also burn in a matter of minutes in the sun.
Everyone needs UV protection to defend against cancer regardless of skin color
This won’t go well for him. Even after the meeting the Republicans had when they were told not to be racist and misogynistic against Harris they still can’t help themselves.
