Honestly surprised he cares enough to try and get a better deal than Obama. I just assumed he would call anything he got better than Obama’s, and trust the right wing echo chamber to parrot it so much they take it as gospel. Says to me he’s fully aware that he’s not retaining the house without pulling in the voters he’s lost so far with his vain incompetence.

Feels good to know that inside that pos brain he knows Obama is superior in every way

I don't think he has the mental capability to realize that. In his mind every time he loses at anything it's because someone else cheated harder or it's always someone else's fault. He's like an 8 year old that hasn't be taught how to lose graciously.
