Former President Donald Trump spent nearly an hour at his Palm Beach, Florida, social club on Thursday ranting to a room full of reporters as he tries to grab the spotlight from a resurgent Democratic ticket fronted by Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.
If he wasn’t a living rerun, maybe more people would give a shit.
*sigh* Yes, he’s genuinely a threat to democracy, and the entire world… But his whole schtick is also really tired, old, and weird.
The more you think of it, reality TV, is the real threat to the entire world. Trump was boen in the bowels of false expecting and production managers on the cutting room floor making creating narratives and then feeding it to the masses as “reality.” I really dread the advent of the youtube president and maybe if we live in a benevolent world the TikTok president will be ok.
I also think Kamala doesn’t mind being out in front, which is refreshing. Hilary never wanted to do press during her run, who would, but I don’t know how she thought she could run a campaign like that.
Biden, too, though. Trump was DOA in 2024, he just had to sit back and put his name on the ticket. Sure, after his last debate in 2024 he attempted to make the rounds but it was obvious why he shouldn’t run at that point.
