In the past two weeks, we’ve seen Donald Trump make the following claims:
Kamala Harris “…was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden she made a turn and she became a Black person.”
Invent a story about a near-death helicopter ride with Willie Brown.
Claim that a 15,000-person crowd greeting Harris was fake and AI-generated.
State that “virtually 100 percent of the net job creation in the last year has gone to migrants, adding …the figure is “actually beyond the number of 100 percent.”
Claim the Medal of Freedom that he awarded to mega-donor Meriel Adelson, compared to the Congressional Medal of Honor, is … “actually much better, because everyone gets the Congressional Medal of Honor, that’s soldiers, they’re either in very bad shape because they’ve been hit so many times by bullets or they’re dead.”
Any one of the statements would be enough to question a normal person’s competence, sanity and/or indicate delusional views.
However, this is coming from a candidate running for president of the United States.
Is he actually believing what comes out of his mouth, or is he just so starved for attention he’ll just say anything to get people to see him instead of Vice President Harris?
His latest rantings of “Kamala, Kamala, Kamala” at his rallies remind me of Jan of the Brady Bunch yelling “Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.”
Maybe that’s all he is, a child crying for people to look at him.
