    The sad thing is that someone in the crowd shouts “kamala” and the crowd laughs in agreement.

    He may be completely weird, incompetent, and losing his mind, but he’s literally on the same level as many of his supporters, and his support has basically been rock solid for years now. As in historically unprecedented lack of variance in his support.

    That’s the real problem and the real thing to be worried about. Half the country is like “YES, EXACTLY, THE FLY IS A HAT KAMALA AND CHANGES RAPIDLY AND I CAN’T TAKE IT ANY LONGER! FINALLY SOMEONE THAT GETS IT AND WILL FIGHT AGAINST THE HAT FLY KAMALA. ALL THOSE PEOPLE THAT SAID IF I DIDN’T GET AN EDUCATION AND WAS AN ASSHOLE TO EVERYONE WOULD LEAD TO A SHITTY LIFE ARE WRONG TRUMP SAYS I’M PERFECT AND WILL GIVE ME MONEY AND HURT THE PEOPLE DOING BETTER (FAKE NEWS!) THAN ME!”

            Right when the campaign season kicked off, the primary season, I mean, the New York Time published a few heat maps showing where each candidate’s donations were coming from within the country.

            Bernie was getting so many small donations from so many people from everywhere, that basically the entire map was covered with Bernie donors.

            In order to even see the concentrations other candidate’s donoros–voters kicking in for Kamala from California, that lady from Minnesota, Biden’s support base in Maryland, you had the Pete squad in Ohio, and a couple of others with their dedicated bases from their hometowns or whatever–the NYT had to completely eliminate Bernie from the heat map.

            And the rest of the article was not about how Bernie was the frontrunner and had the largest base of support of any candidate in history, had received more small donations and more unique donors than any candidate in history, how he had 90%+ approval ratings of voters that knew him, no.

            It was shit like that that cost Bernie the primary. The media unanimously declaring that he was not winning, even as he was winning. In order to finally strike him down, they had to get all the power players to broker a deal where Biden would become the candidate and the other leaders would all step down in order to beat Bernie.

            Why did the weaker candidate get the most votes? Because people like Nancy Polosie have money on the other horse.

          I wont lie, i was a bernie or bust dude. I wanted trump to win for the choas it would bring hoping the left would learn their lesson. I also hated Hillary Clinton, i was convinced she would start ww3. Idk how to think if i were right or wrong. But so much terrible shit has happened after trump, was it all going to happen anyways… i just dont know i think people should live regret free, i didnt vote so that doesnt apply as much, but i sure talked up trump for like the first year of him in office. 🤮🤮🤮

          I thought trump was gonna drain the an swamp. But nooooooooo.

    In separate remarks made during his speech, Trump again dialed up his rhetoric against Harris, calling her “mentally disabled” and “mentally impaired.”

    Well by the law of Republican projection there’s our proof that Trump is not playing with a full deck.

    Flies are attracted to the stench of decay and fecal matter. Maybe Donnie did a boom-boom in his diaper and the fly wanted to see what the fuss was.

    Former President Donald Trump expressed his frustration over a fly that approached his lecturn (sic) in a bizarre moment during a rally speech.

    Trump was on stage at Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, making a point about a hat, when he appeared to get distracted by the creature.

    “Oh there’s a fly,” the former president said. “I wonder where the fly came from?”

    One audience member shouted out “Kamala.”

    Trump continued: “See, two years ago, I wouldn’t have had a fly up here. You’re changing rapidly. We can’t take it any longer.” It wasn’t clear who or what the president was referring to before he changed the subject.

    The internet was quick to react to Trump’s unexpected outburst, with MSNBC host and legal analyst Katie Phang saying “this is not normal.”

        His body odor is absolutely atrocious, according to everyone around him

          I’m so curious about this. I read that even on the set of his tv show he regularly shat his pants. And old fat people can’t really wash themselves all too well. Combine that with makeup and whatever cologne he uses to hide his stench

          Calling it body odor is even generous. It’s full diapers, called makeup, and cologne.

          Edit: Cake makeup, I swear autocorrect is changing words way after I’ve typed them lately.

      Trump was on stage at Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, making a point about a hat, when he appeared to get distracted by the creature.

      I can assume that, probably, his speech wasn’t informative to begin with. It would be interesting to know if that sudden distraction was actually welcomed by his followers, or that they felt angry about Don abandoning the hat discourse. I can imagine how significant the familiar red cap design to the MAGA cult.

      Climate change increases the number of flies. I think he’s talking about climate change. That’s the only way I can make sense of this. The climate is changing rapidly and we can’t take all the flies.

    I propose a new standard practice during debates: At some point, open a box in the center of the stage with 100 or so flies in it, then keep a tally of how many gravitate to each speaker.
