“Desperation or incompetence”
When you think of Donald Trump and his political campaigns, the first two words that come to mind are corruption and extremism. But the third word that comes to mind is incompetence. Trump always runs incompetent campaigns that seem to have no idea what they’re doing. If anything it’s become even more glaring in 2024 than in his past efforts.
For instance Trump and his campaign just sent out targeted fundraising letters in the key swing state of North Carolina… and one of them was addressed to a Democratic State Senator:
The @realDonaldTrump campaign is asking me, a Democratic State Senator, for $$$π. It's either desperation or incompetence. We are flipping NC blue, y'all. πͺππΊπΈ pic.twitter.com/EVW2GOj7MC

Trump and his campaign are facing a budget crunch and limited resources, and yet they’re scatterbrained enough to be sending their fundraising literature to the people who are the least likely to donate to them in the entire world. “Desperation or incompetence” indeed.
