Donald Trump has been throwing a prolonged tantrum, as he struggles to accept that he is no longer running against President Joe Biden.
The former president and convicted felon has become increasingly distressed at the state of his campaign, according to a Washington Post report published Thursday.
As Vice President Kamala Harris has relaunched the Democratic Party’s campaign, Trump saw his fundraising edge dissipate under the shadow of her $310 million influx in July. At the same time, his campaign has struggled to find its footing in the new matchup, leaving some close to the campaign wondering how it was possible they were so ill prepared, according to the *Post. *
After flying so high at the Republican National Convention in July, it seems that Trump has had a hard time adjusting to the fact that his fight is not over.
“It’s unfair that I beat him and now I have to beat her too,” Trump told an ally in a phone call last weekend, according to the Post.
He can always drop out. No one is forcing him to run
I’m totally fine if he fucks off to North Korea for the rest of his life. Better yet, takes all his supporters with him. That way he can play pretend dictator with his romantic partner Kim for eternity and beyond
Is there a single McDonalds in NK? Going cold turkey on daily cheeseburgers might just kill him.
It’s really telling that trump thinks it’s some sort of competition sport that’s all about him winning. We’re deciding who to hire to do the job. It’s not the Olympics. It’s not about him or Kamala, it’s about us.
You are right. But he’ll never get that through his thick, narcissistic skull, because he’s been allowed to get away with anything for his entire life with basically no consequences. In the shitty little bubble he exists in, everything is a contest that he can exploit and cheat at. And everyone serves him while he does whatever the fuck he wants. The idea of him serving the American people is completely alien to him.
Trump is much more used to doing one major event a week. This week, as his running mate J.D. Vance hit the road, Trump stayed home in Florida to fundraise and do interviews. After months of campaigning, it’s unclear whether Trump has the stamina to carry his campaign to November.
It’s ok Donnie - go take a nap and when you wake up in November it’ll all be over 😇
Cry me a river dickface
We can all make fun of him but I think he is setting the stage to call the election unfair and unlawful when he eventually loses, be careful.
He already is lol

Not to say this isn’t true, but the 2024 count probably also includes his continued whining about the 2020 election. It’s all part of the same thing, but it’s blurrier than the other two metrics.
Notes: The Times’s analysis counted specific references to “election interference,” “rigging,” “stealing,” “cheating” and related terms, as well as references to voter fraud, in posts on Twitter (now X) and Truth Social; at campaign events; and in interviews in the 2016, 2020 and 2024 election cycles. The analysis most likely represents an undercount of the number of times the former president has baselessly sown doubt about election fairness or integrity. Some transcripts were provided by Roll Call Factba.se.
He tapped an outside contractor to come up with the governance and policy plan. They basically delivered him a 900 page authoritarian how-to manual.
Cheating the vote obviously has legs, but whining that it’s unfair he has to run against someone he doesn’t want to isn’t going to hit the same. He is really losing his edge and getting slow-witted, and it really looks to me like maga is running out of gas, and I don’t think there is anyone out there who can replace Trump to pour fuel on the fire.
