Donald Trump is reportedly losing sleep, battling anxiety, and obsessing over his polling numbers as the GOP nominee hopes to hang his hat on any sign that he will return to the White House.
A campaign official told Axios that Trump is asking more questions and pushing his staff to work even more to ensure that he will come out ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris come Election Day.
“Trump’s anxiety is evident in his late-night and early morning calls to aides in which he peppers them with questions on how things are going—and whether they think he’ll win,” Axios reported.
I just want to know he’s not going to be president again. We can’t know that for sure until Tuesday evening at the earliest. I’ll never forgive Republicans for putting us through this.
We’re not going to know on Tuesday.
There’s a chance it’s a landslide and no legitimate argument for a recount. That won’t stop the lawsuits, but it will make every reasonable person sleep better at night.
Not all of the mail-in votes will have been counted, at the very least.
Very true, but there comes a point where that no longer matters.
Please get out and vote and get things to that point, my American friends!
Oh, if he loses, he is definitely putting us all through this again. He will start raising money for “Trump 2028” even as he challenges this election.
Honestly, I’m slightly skeptical of that. The man is old, and his health already appears to be visibly starting to degrade a little. That doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll be dead in 4 years, but barring some medical breakthrough on reversing aging in the next couple years, I suspect he probably won’t be in good enough shape to campaign by then. Plus, it would be much more difficult for him to win the nomination in such a case. He’s got a cult following that would help, but the republicans also want to win, and if he loses this, that will be 2 elections in a row, almost a decade, that they’ll have lost the white house with him on the ticket.
The bigger issue is that his “deny losing elections and actively court bigots while saying whatever inflammatory thing he can to stay in the news” strategy will probably get picked up by whoever replaces him.
He has to start running for 2028 right away if he loses in 2024, because his DJT stock will be in the toilet once his foreign investors can’t get the ROI they were expecting to bribe a US President, and grifting campaign funds is the only avenue left to maintain his lifestyle.
Losing sleep over whether he’ll actually be sentenced or not.
Good. You orange fuck. You rapist. Racist fucking shit stain asshole. I hope the rest of your sleeps are troubled. May the tightness in your neck grip ever harder in your final days. I hope you’re too much of a coward to commit suicide and you have to live with your actions and see your narcissistic collapse bring the house of cards down.
You’ve forced me to move my family to Germany because of the fascist movement you’ve brought to the US. You’ve had me doomscrolling since at least 2015. You’ve had me changing my travel plans checking flights out of Toronto in order to avoid flying from the US after your inauguration date so that my latino family will have no in-person interaction with any government agent from your regime despite their being citizens. You’ve fucking disrupted an entire world order due to your complicity with Duginism because of your insatiable greed and character flaws leading to Russian kompromat on you, or you’re just a piece of shit because you need the Russian money to keep coming.
You should be in jail at best, and facing a similar fate to Mussolini at worst. So fuck off with your sleepless nights you fucking weak minded piss poor excuse for a person.
I like the parallel to Musselini.
Moving to Germany to avoid fascism is an incredible move.
It is incredible isn’t it? The Germans have seen first hand that some speech should not be free and they understand that the intolerant cannot be tolerated. Which is why they have the Brandmauer and there are talks to ban AfD. Trump should have never been allowed to run this time around, and if AfD is found to be undemocratic, they will be banned as well. 15% of the country may not like it, but that’s tough shit.
Their system is actually a modern parliamentary government where it’s not winner take all. Proportional representation with ranked choice voting is what the USA needs to move to. We need to get off the two party system, but the parties who benefit are the ones who make the change. Also our third parties are absolute dogshit. Green and Libertarian. So culturally the USA needs to field some better policies and candidates. The problem is the right wing is so powerful that the left cannot meaningfully put together a real competitive coalition. Even the democrats would be center right in most other developed countries. So yeah, fascism is coming to the USA, whether it comes in 2024, 2028, or 2032, it’s coming and hopefully it doesn’t take the rest of the world out with it. The EU needs to be prepared to lose the USA as a primary trading partner and as the head of NATO. This Russia problem we have doesn’t seem to be going away.
I just don’t want my kids getting drafted into some dumb ass fascist conflict. My hope would be that blue states resist when red state national guard is knocking on people’s doors and performing their dragnet deportation operation on anyone too dark a shade of brown. I just don’t see any of this ending well.
I would love to be wrong about all of this by the way. But I grew up in the south, and I’ve seen first hand how the majority feels and thinks about cities, immigrants, LGBTQIA+, marginalized groups, POC, etc.
Got called a nazi kraut my whole school career just for expressing pride in Lebkuchen or Christmas traditions or knowing a little bit of German despite being culturally American and speaking English as my native tongue. The USA has some serious cultural issues to reconcile, and I’m not sure a milquetoast centrist former prosecutor has the right formula to do it.
That’s assuming she wins. She loses, I guess I’m flying out of Canada in January prior to inauguration day.
You come off as a pretty violent guy ngl
Lol ok snowflake.
Ah yes, a family man who wanted a quiet life backed into leaving his country for a place his children might stand a modicum of a chance of having a normal life is the violent one. Not the fascists touting project 2025, turning the military on American citizens, sending red state national guard to blue states to round people up for camps, etc., but I suppose “legal” political violence is okay with you.
Yes, let’s all hug and get along with fascist rapist wannabe despots. Maybe we can make gingerbread houses together and sing kumbah-fucking-ya. Go suck a Re-tard’s dick.
I hope he loses a lot fucking more than sleep. Tired of these god damned traitors.
What a waste of atoms that ‘thing’ is. May it suffer greatly before they are permanently rearranged into a nonliving format. May the universe learn from it’s mistake.
New poll just dropped showing him down by 3 in Iowa(!) I hope he never gets another good night’s sleep as long as he lives.
He’s stressing about having to face jail if he loses. So anyways…
I had some awesome oreo and dulce Gelato last night.
Someone put him to sleep already.
The dumbass doesn’t know he’s being played by his aides and their republican masters. He’s just their tool.
Just like Bush, diminishing his agency excuses a monster who deserves no mercy.
I think Trump will win, but I hope he is justified in his fears.
I don’t, but people should still assume he can and vote like they’re the one that can tip the scale against him.
Voting like my liver depends on it!
People need to go out and fucking vote, nothing is in the bag for Harris, especially since republicans want to legally contest every single fucking fair and free election. Traitorous losers
And grab a 2 or 3 hour shift for virtual phone banking today and tomorrow.
And if you live in or next to a swing state. Knock doors for an hour. It’s fun, and you’ll hate yourself if the fascists win and all you did was shit post on the internet.
What if they want to vote for Trump? Should they still go out and vote?
I mean… they have the right to but personally I would rather they didn’t
If you believe in democracy, yes.
I hear there’s a monster truck show all day where they are, wherever that is. They have punch and pie.
Sure.
The mantra of “Everybody vote” is out there because it’s harder to contest, and the fact of the matter is when more people vote, Republicans lose more elections.
Kamala needs to go fire and brimgstone with her presidency so we don’t have to spend the next several decades years with every election being “maintain the status quo or become the fourth reich”
At bare minimum she needs to halt the genocide in Palestine, have Netanyahu and co sent to The Hague, deport Elon Musk, send Trump to prison, nationalise SpaceX for a start.
That is only going to have a chance in hell at happening if she and a democratic majority in senate and house addresses the republican issue first and goes after, prosecutes, and convicts the traitors, foreign agents, and the corrupt.
Yeah I don’t think it has any chance of actually happening. Democratic voters will go to brunch and they will all just move further to the right.
And do SOMETHING about Gerrymandering. Anything. Mention it in an interview. Ask Congress to act. Withhold funding from egregious states.
Dial back bush and Obama’s expansions of executive power. The office of the president isn’t supposed to be powerful enough that someone like trump can do so much damage.
She needs an attorney general with balls. I nominate Hillary Clinton.
Fuck no. The fuck is wrong with you.
We are only in this mess to begin with cause of her stupidity and fucking arrogance.
and no, this isnt some “omg u haet hilary cause u haet woman!” fucking lizard brain wanna be “alpha male” right wing bullshit.
Shes genuinely a bad candidate, for any position, She threw away the last election cause she couldnt even be bothered to campaign in several states she considered safe, instead spending time having sneaky-hidey meetings behind closed doors (and behind white noise generators to deal with anyones pesky over hearing what shes saying) with money and corporations, and I guarantee you they were not meetings in any way that benefited the average american, else they wouldnt have felt the need to have them all hush hush and behind white noise generators. If a Republican had secret meetings with money behind white noise generators the internet would lose its goddamn mind over it ffs!
and if that wasnt bad enough, shes a Republican. Sure, she calls herself a democrat, but shes a Republican. Shes not an openly racist, hate mongering, Putin dick sucking piece of shit like republicans today, shes a Republican from 30 years ago when they still hid behind flowery and coded language, and had the false appearance of amiable servants of the public good to anyone that didnt look too closely.
Keep Hillary, and Bill, far the fuck away from the goddamn white house.
I nominate Jack Smith.
He’s probably losing sleep over the fact that if he loses the election his best chance for staying out of prison is fleeing to Russia.
I mean he isn’t in prison now, and isn’t heading any closer to prison. Evergreen tweet.
Hooray for courts stacked with sycophants and partisans, and liberals enabling fascism because meaningfully opposing it would be uncivil.
There’s slim hope that Trump losing the election along with his viability as president or leader of the GOP would see his protections make way for consequences, but even that seems unlikely.
He not anxious about the election, it’s the fact he goes to jail for all of his evil shitfuckery if he loses. No amount of microphone fellatio will alay his worry about atoning for his disgusting existence.
He’ll exile to Russia to be with his boyfriend
Wouldn’t it be beautiful if Putin was willing to extradite him since he’s no longer useful
good, but go vote (if you haven’t yet) and make the winning margin bigger! we don’t need that “voter fraud” bullshit anymore. it’s the same song and dance as last time.
Wow, we actually have something in common
