To add context, the ads are on YouTube, I’m in North Carolina, they’ve mostly (all?) been regarding Medicare with a voiceover saying “He’s not going to cut Medicare or Medicaid” followed with him saying “None of that stuff is gonna be touched”

I can only imagine there’s some local elections or primaries that have his stink on it and some GOP candidate is trying to ‘roll down the windows’?

      I, almost for certain, thought that was the end of him at the time. Entire political careers have lived and died on sub-10-second sound bites, and there is no way to spin that to make him sound like he knows what he’s doing.

        Bro if the fuckin’ grabbing women by the pussy comment, the 30+ felonies, the insurrection, the mocking of the disabled, the comments about the underage pageant contestants, being best friends with Jeff Epstein, and generally being a fucking LOSER didn’t do it, why would him saying he has a plan do anything?

        I forgot about him calling dead soldiers losers.

        And the nonstop golfing.

        And the theft of classified documents.

        And the pissy sex party.

        And trying to nuke a hurricane.

          him being a shitty human being is something his supporters like and admire, but even really terrible people prefer a leader that has some idea of what they’re going to do as a leader.

            I have to disagree. The supporters around me like the chaos.

            I tell them that their idea of changing the government is akin to burning their house down with their children inside because it needs new plumbing. They just don’t care.

            And I understand why they are the way they are - they’re desperate, and they lack the cognitive capacity to fully understand what’s happening. I can’t blame them, as much as I want to. They’re sick - mentally ill. Truly broken by a system that’s designed to break them.
