Yeah sure, he was in so much danger after the gunman was killed. I get the SS not taking any chances but Trump's a coward. No chance he thought there was any danger by that point. He went straight to politicizing it within 30 seconds.

The fact he keeps going out there after getting shot at shows he's no coward. I'm no trump fan, but the man is far from a coward.

How was Trump supposed to know with absolute certainty, 30 seconds after being shot on stage (!) that the threat against him was neutralized?? He wasn't briefed by anyone. If he was even aware that the shooter was killed, he had no way of knowing whether that shooter was acting alone, or if there were additional threats. We're talking about taking a bullet to the ear coming from a crowd with thousands of people, secret service rushing the stage, rallygoers injured/dead, people screaming - total chaos. The idea that he was able to synthesize all this information in mere seconds, know that he was perfectly safe, and react the way he did, is laughable. More laughable than claiming he handled himself like some kind of coward on stage.

People pick the strangest hills to die on, lol.
 
Trump isn’t a coward, at least not in the way that he’s being claimed to be here. He’s not the selfless hero his most ardent supporters are making him out to be, either. He is exactly who he’s been his entire life: a self-absorbed ass who wants to be liked and/or respected by others for his wealth, power and reputation. Believe what you will about whether or not he should be the next President of the United States, but he remains the same man he was as a member of the “elite liberal” New York social class or as the 45th President. Running to be President again isn’t the easiest or safest path for him, and he’s also not risking his life to protect the little man. He’s just being Donald Trump, and everyone will get their chance over the next couple weeks to vote for or against him.
 
Also, if I’m supposed to react to Trump playing fry cook for a day in any way other than the way one would look at a Court Jester, someone will need to explain to me why that is.

Seriously though, the reaction to today’s photo op is blowing my mind. It was kind of fun and definitely funny to watch a businessman in a collared shirt cosplay, and basically anything any candidate does is staged nonsense, but the pro-Trump takes are genuinely incredible.

The cult is gonna cult. They 1000x everything he does.

But it's a good move for normies to see him hanging out with the people. Humanizes him. There is no downside, and I'd bet it becomes a campaign staple of politicians going forward

Yes, this was objectively fantastic work by the Trump campaign and Trump himself here. They had a good plan, and they executed it about as flawlessly as they could have. I’m surprised by how many town halls they have had him nonsensing his way through lately when this is all you need to have the guy do. He’s really at his best when he can be treated like a take your child to work guest, and I actually don’t mean that nearly as insultingly as it sounds.

Republican Senate internal polling from early October doesnt look good for them. I like how this polling is done. Really great at providing context to the numbers.

Thethe's favorite "Governor" Karen Lake has an unfavourability rating of 53 in Republicans own polling. She is well on her way to being one of the worst candidates in recent memory. Generic Rep vs Generic Dem is 45 vs 46. There is a clear decline in Republican support in Arizona over the last 2 months. Karen Lake has dropped 1 point a month and Trump has gone from a 4 point lead to even with Harris. No wonder Trump never talks about Karen anymore. He doesnt want that loser rubbing off on him. Both figuarately and literally.

Governor Hogan in Maryland is very popular in a solidly blue state but down 7 points makes him an extreme longshot right now.

In Michigan the Dem Slotkin is leading the Rep Rogers 8 points. Republicans look to be in freefall in the state as it was super close just in August. Republicans had a 5 point lead in the Generic Rep vs Generic Dem polling but that is now tied at 43 a piece. Trump has gone from up 2 to down 3 in 2 months. Slotkin has gone from down 1 to up 8 in that timespan as well. I wouldnt put too much stock in a single poll but you can see Republicans trending downward through several months of polling. Republicans can probably go ahead and put this one in the L column.

In Montana the Rep candidate has a 4 point lead over the Dem Tester. Montana is a Republican stronghold so its a wonder that Tester ever got elected in the first place. Its within the realm of possibilities that Tester wins but not looking good for him right now. Polling in October has it 48/44. That leaves only 8 percent undecided and I find it hard to overcome 4 points out of the remaining 8.

In Nevada its even for Trump vs Harris at 46/46 while the Dem candidate has a 7 point lead at 36/43. Trump has made up 4 points since August to make it even for his race. Theres still 21% undecided so theres a lot of room to make up that 7 point gap in the Senate race potentially.

Trump has a solid 4 point lead in Ohio but again the Senate race heavily favors the Democrat. I dont know if Trump will raise the tide for Rep Senate candidates or if Dem Senate candidates will help Kamala in all these states.

In PA Harris has a slim 1 point lead after having a 6 point lead in August. Dems have a 2 point lead in the Senate race but only 6% undecided. The margins are slim but with so few undecided I think PA looks real good for Kamala right now.

In Texas I wouldnt bet on Cruz losing but there is definitely blood in the water. I think Allred is a much better candidate for Texas than Beto was. Showing only 1 point lead for Cruz. I would certainly cheer that ****stain losing. Theres no question imo that Trumps going to win Texas but right now I would guess he wins 52-48 which continues the trend of Texas turning purple.

Wisconsin is super close for both races. Both races look like a coinflip.

And again, these are Republicans own internal polling. I know for some of you polls you dont like are like garlic to a vampire.

Normies werent allowed. The McDonalds was closed and all the customers were hand picked Trump supporters. This is the kind of staged crap Republicans would be eviscerating Kamala for.

Biden was POTUS for the majority of the pandemic. Trump "listened to the experts" like all the Dems suggested he should until enough Americans had had enough of being told what to do. States like Cali and NY and their policies caused far more damage than anything Trump did. Meanwhile, FL was a shining beacon. So weird..
