‘Donald Trump is losing his marbles,’ former Congressman and Republican Adam Kinzinger said
Republicans are concerned that party leader Donald Trump is having a “public nervous breakdown” after he made a series of offensive outbursts about Vice President Kamala Harris as he slips behind her in the polls.
The former president has made a number of insulting personal attacks against his Democratic rival since she moved to the top of the ticket. Last week, Trump questioned Harris’s racial identity at the National Association of Black Journalists conference. Over the weekend, he accused Harris of having a “low IQ.”
New polls indicate Trump is slipping behind the vice president in the popular vote and races are tightening in battleground states.
“This is what you would call a public nervous breakdown,” Matthew Bartlett, a Republican strategist and former Trump state department appointee, told Politico.
I assume you’re just memeing siince he never actually wrote about that?
If he didn’t write it, maybe Jesse Watters should be demanding to see the book and not just a video he could masturbate to.

Just gonna share this here anyway since I fell for it originally:

Snopes doesn’t need to be “helping” right now.
I’m confused… Are you saying we should encourage disinformation?
Yes. I am saying America should be convinced that J.D. Vance fucks couches.
Because that’s what you do when the opponents do things like say your candidates turned black all of a sudden or that he wasn’t born in the United States.
I mean, there’s so much bullshit to use against them we hardly need to stoop to lies. The truth is already incredibly damning and is tearing them apart right now.
“Couch fucker” is catchy though, it rolls off the tongue, it’s easy to remember
‘Diaper Don and the couch fucker’ is a great response to ‘sleepy joe and low iq karolla’ or whatever tf trump is calling her
— it sucks that this is where American political discourse is, but this is where THEY brought it to. Taking the high road isn’t a virtue when dealing with a bully and it isn’t effective.
Diaper Don and the Couchfucker sounds like a bluegrass duo you’d see at a bar in Ithaca. I love it.
The thing about lies is that they demonstrably work a lot better than the truth on the segment of voters we need to reach. They’re practically begging to be lied to, so I say give them what they want. If they wanted the truth, it would be extremely easy for them to find it.
“When they go low, we go high” almost never works in politics. So good luck telling people that they’re smearing poor J.D. Vance with a terrible lie.
I’m not saying we go high. By all means, rip into them. The Harris campaign is doing a great job of that, using the truth. There’s so much ammunition that the lies are just a drop in the bucket and serve no real purpose other than distortion. It’s just pretty pointless.
There are two kinds of people: those who understand it’s juvenile humor and are just memeing on it for funsies, and those who don’t understand that and are never going to be high information voters and JD Vance fucks couches must just be the message that gets them to vote.
My optimism in humanity leads me to believe there are very few of the latter. What I’m certain of is the joke does no harm and is a silly little meme. President Trump was a silly little meme in 2015 but then Hillary ran the worst campaign in living memory (Kamala saved Biden from that dubious distinction), and here we are. So I’m okay with it, but obviously it has no place in serious conversation except to inject some laughs.
We should encourage ridicule. Their positions are not worth the dignity of rational debate.
Watters insists the couch-clapping story is as real as Covid-19. That sounds like an admission to me!
