It just hit me. What Trump has done to us for almost 4 years is happening to him

now. For his entire 2016 campaign and the subsequent presidency he has hit us with one scandal after another. We never had the time to react, to absorb or to process one scandal before our attention was dragged into the next.

Grab the pussy. Her emails!

Pee tape. Campaign spying!

Cash to porn stars. Biden and Ukraine!

On and on and on with no chance to fully respond to one scandal before another erupts. It was all strategy.

Now it's happening to HIM. No time to respond before he gets hit with another!

His sister's tape recorded conversations.

Health concerns.

Micheal Cohen's book and interview on Maddow.

Derogatory comments about the military and fallen heroes.

The Woodward tapes and book. The fucking TAPES.

He hasn't had the time to distract from one before the next hits the fan. He is forced into perpetual defense, no time for offense!

There is less than two months to November 3 and THERE IS MORE TO COME!

The Lincoln Project instant response, VoteVets and on and on.

He is a Dead Man Walking.

No way can he "debate" anything. He can't even answer a simple question or two.

Whether his so-called base can see through that, I don't know. We'll see. I know the rest of us have no problem seeing his faults and short-comings.

3. Your argument is very valid. Except that I don't think anything will stick this time.

there's no telling what he will do now to retaliate.

choose a target to focus on. He's being hit from all sides; family, former staff, his own words, the new whistle blower and JOE BIDEN KAMALA HARRIS.

It's all falling apart like the Deacon's Wonderful One Hoss Shay.

They grifted their own campaign money so hard they didn't leave enough for the actual campaign. Poetic.
