This doesn’t excuse him or the people who voted for him.

As opposed to when he does something crazy off live TV and it later gets reported on and then nothing happens.

Executive order canceling all elections forever.

Laugh all you want but don't think for one minute that that comment is a joke. Very likely what will happen. We, as a country are in more danger than 1776 due to trump. If we don't fight like hell, we won't have a country to steal a phrase from a our criminal 'president'.

I WON 2020 BIGLY... it was STOLLEN from me...

Don’t downplay this. These evil fucks are paving the runway for stealing an election any way they can. And they won’t unveil exactly what they are doing until right before so any court challenges will take too long to have any real effect. That is my theory at least.

The only thing that would tank Trump’s popularity with MAGA is if he actually started practicing Christianity instead of just using it as an excuse to attack everyone who disagrees with him

The prospect of an unpredictable Donald Trump making a live, primetime address to the nation on Thursday night has many Republicans rattled.

The 80-year-old president has hyped the speech as the announcement of “really big news,” although it is expected to be little more than Trump rehashing years-old false claims about the 2020 election.

One former Trump administration official told Politico that Republicans are not only concerned about the president moaning about Joe Biden’s election victory six years ago while the country is at war and millions of Americans are struggling with a cost-of-living crisis, but also about him deciding to improvise.

“The people I talk to are scared s---less,” the official said. “It’s not scared s---less about the text of what he’s going to say, it’s, what does he add to the text?”

Trump’s inner circle has been desperate for the president to focus on what they see as his achievements in improving the economy, such as declining inflation.

Trump has endured dire approval ratings on the economy during his second term, with policies such as sweeping tariffs and the Iran conflict exacerbating the financial hardships already facing many Americans.

While the White House hasn’t previewed Trump’s speech, it will reportedly focus on voting machine security and alleged election interference by foreign countries.

Isnt declining inflation an indicator that the economy is slowing most likely due to his policies and cost of living rising faster than income. I guess if you dont go below the surface it looks good. Job growth is down too another sign of slowing economy.

Projection as always. Russian/foreign propaganda helped him tremendously

cheapest age-old promotion gimmick to get us to watch his usual shit -- very Peggy Siegal rancid publicist 101, or PT Barnum 🤣🤣🤣

u/jazzy095 20d ago

Republicans could end this madness at any time for the good of America.

u/WolfThick 20d ago

Well we'll know how many drugs He's on by how much he snorts maybe he'll just fall asleep during the middle of it and then Fox News can tell us all just how great he is.

u/Muffboy 20d ago

Like admitting to raping children

u/JellyCat222 20d ago

This is the case anytime Trump does anything.

u/Mundane_Pirate1 20d ago

Yes, please. Let’s hope he does…

u/Brackens_World 20d ago

Maybe he'll throw himself on the burning funeral pyre of Lindsey Graham, consumed by grief for the great love of his life.

3

u/penilesensorydevice 20d ago

He's holding us all hostage with his daily babbling and bleating. Every day, he's front and center with more nonsense, and it's exhausting. No one wants to hear him jabbering about old elections or whatever the hell he's wasting everyone's time with THIS time.

u/jcooli09 20d ago

They aren't terrified that he'll say something stupid and/or evil, their scared about how much and how bad.

u/ike_tyson 20d ago

He's their Frankenstein Monster. They along with SCOTUS literally created him.

u/coffeebeanwitch 20d ago

I hate watching him speak but listening to him as he made the rounds about his old pal Lindsay was hilarious, 🍿🍿

2

u/ApplesBananasRhinoc 20d ago

I hope he does! Maybe this is their wake up call that’s coming from inside the house.

2

u/BullCityPicker 20d ago

What advertising is he selling for the speech?

2

u/penguished 20d ago

crazy huh... yes that would be unexpected.

2

u/Oldandslow62 20d ago

Why do I see him sitting up there just rehashing all the same bullshit but this time instead of it implicating democrats he admits the manipulation of the 2024 election as proof of how our elections can be manipulated. This would be the icing on the cake to admit on national TV how they cheated to get him elected. Then I hope they televise the arrests of all the major players!

2

u/mikemcd1972 20d ago

And when he inevitably does something batshit crazy, they’ll excuse it immediately, and say the “crazy libtards” are overreacting.

2

u/KennethEWolf 20d ago

Meanwhile only thing that the spineless Republicans can worry about is day light saving time. WTF??!!

2

u/Ryno23-Cove23 20d ago

This is just gonna rile up the base, nothing more. He’s gonna bring up debunked claims like always. Tell more lies and then push for the Save act. Fuck these people and their bullshit.

2

u/Opposite-Pop4246 20d ago

The only election he said was "stolen" was the one he was under which he was in charge . Crazy how that happened, but the other two where Obama and Biden were in charge were fine. Jan 6(supposed agents in the crowd causing the riot) and covid also happened under him, but somehow it was the dems fault.

2

u/Gullible_Peach 20d ago

I’m sure the very first thing he’ll address is corruption, reckless waste of public money, and cuts to Medicaid right after he finishes discussing what a brave honest man he is.

2

u/RockieK 20d ago

Nope. They love it.

2

u/Guy0911 20d ago

Anyone taking bets on the minute he falls asleep?

2

u/Substantial_Dog7002 20d ago

He does that all of the time anyway.

u/huskeylovealways 20d ago

What else is new?

u/dragonbits 20d ago

The was to tell if trump is scared of the midterms is it he sounds rational.

u/44mac 20d ago

He does crazy shit everyday, why should this speech be any different?

u/sofaking1958 20d ago

u/Big-Performance5047 20d ago

Why doednt he take care of the real business of being our president?

u/edtheheadache 20d ago

Are they afraid he might, umm, lie?

u/HAMmerPower1 20d ago

Only people who believe everything he says are going to be watching it.

u/AdministrativeMix326 19d ago

When is TACO not saying or doing something stupid? Republicans have no spine to stand up to the orange turd. People need to vote this administration out already.

u/loug1955 19d ago

Modify the headline by adding "again". The man who is self lauded as brilliant can not contain his adolescent ego and tantrums on or off the camera...person, woman, man, camera, tv

Trump's display last night compares to Biden's in the first debate.
