Alone in the dark
Another day, another endorsement for Kamala Harris. This time, The Economist has endorsed Kamala. In their endorsement, they also write that Donald Trump “poses an unacceptable risk to America and the world.”
It is terrific news that this endorsement happened, but this article is not simply about The Economist. It is about how so many from so very different backgrounds are coming out of the woodwork to endorse Madame President. It is also about — desperation. Trump’s desperation.
Liz Cheney. Dick Cheney. Newspapers and media organizations of every size, shape, and format. The Guardian and the New York Times have endorsed Harris. Every single day, more endorsements pour in. This, of course, spells excellent news for Kamala Harris, but let’s talk, for a moment, about her rival.
A convicted felon and a sexual assaulter, Donald has been resorting to desperate measures lately. Of course, his garbage truck fiasco was shockingly awful, beyond the pale, and bizarre even by Trump standards.
When one objectively looks at Donald John Trump, it is impossible not to conclude that there is something very wrong with him. Even if the J-6th insurrection had never happened, this writer would still be saying the same thing.
It feels, to me, anyway, that Donald Trump’s whole campaign is one big pile of desperation. In the last few weeks, the man has all but stopped campaigning in any NORMAL way, not that anything Donald Trump ever could be labeled as “normal,” but this is bizarre even for him.
Let me use an analogy. It’s like the Trump campaign was an underground subway car that stopped moving. And just — just — sat there. In the dark. Alone. Passengers were the typical Maga worshippers, but in all seriousness—in ALL seriousness —have they even added ONE new passenger since the beginning of the subway ride?
Trump does not appear to be able to add NEW voters. And that’s terrible news. Because he simply CANNOT win with what he has now.
And he is SUPPOSED to be the leader of this campaign, but creating stunts like riding in garbage trucks only inspires laughter, not votes — and this laughter is most definitely AT him, not WITH him.
So, in these dwindling days, as Kamala pulls in endorsements daily and more and more praise is heaped on her, Donald Trump sits in his windowless, blacked-out, soul-sucking subway car, empty of steam, void of new ideas and stuck in the same spot he’s been in since the campaign began.
