Donald Trump is in a funk: Bitter, hoarse and pondering, ‘If I lose. . .’

[blue-wave]

Source: Washington Post

FLETCHER, N.C. — As he took the stage here in this mountain town Friday afternoon, Donald Trump was as subdued as the modest crowd that turned out to see him. He complained about the usual things — the dishonest media, his “corrupt” rival Hillary Clinton — but his voice was hoarse and his heart didn’t seem in it.

He also promised to do all that he could to win, but he explained why he might lose.

1. Obviously he has "no stamina."

It would be such a treat to see him spend eleven hours under oath in front of a hostile Congressional committee.

Maybe his testimony in the upcoming fake "university" trial will be on camera

[calimary]

14. Good Grief!

He'd fall apart, about 35 minutes in.

[Motley13]

26. He would forget what he was there for

but that wouldn't stop his from blaming it on Hillary, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS , NYT, WaPo & the women accusers.

2. Trump had no idea of what he was getting into...

not a clue. Getting elected, as in surviving the presidential campaign, is probably as hard or harder than actually doing the job.

It's probably a good idea. It's hard for an asshole like Trump to hide his character flaws for that long, and under those stresses.

Hillary has seen it and been through it as a spouse and as a participant in the primaries. She knows. He was clueless.

3. I drink their tears for breakfast...

5. one of my fave images from a previous election

29. Good one! n/t

4. Tell the sad news to Alicia Machado

Who Trump made to work out in front of a bunch of strangers as he looked on and smiled
and then kissed her after humiliating her in public.

6. Hillary's Not Tough!

Now that's the most incorrect statement of this century so far.

I demand unconditional surrender from tRump.

Asshole!!

[Coyotl]

7. "Trump, his arms folded, cocked his head to the side and smirked as his wife looked elegantly pained

LOL. It's fun to watch.

[LiberalLovinLug]

8. I predict this statement from him right after the election.

"We have just witnessed the biggest voter fraud operation in American history"

[ffr]

9. Heard audio of his speech where he said as much.

The few fans of his didn't all react the same. I'm sure they are bewildered and losing hope at this point.

I imagine many of them are soul searching thinking he wasn't the right choice anyway.

Too bad. So sad.

10. He's made many speeches. But now, suddenly he is hoarse, at the same time the fight has gone out

I wonder if he blew up behind the scenes and had a full-throated shouting temper tantrum against his staff and/or family.

[Hekate]

12. Hmmm. Might be some dings in that gold wallpaper from throwing objects, too.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. Even the FReak site is dis-spirited

Just a week or two ago, these LIVE Trump Rally threads had hundreds of posts, which have dropped dramatically. Any thoughts on whyvt that’s happened?

The Johnstown thread drew 10 (ten) posts.

13. A lot of his supporters are really old and knocking on death's door.

Being constantly angry doesn't help ones health either.

[Jon King]

16. His crowds are getting smaller

and have less enthusiasm. They will move on to the next loudest right wingnut after the election. Trump will find he does not have much staying power with them.

17. My wife works for a stockbroker and one of her clients is a Trump campaign person in AZ

Apparently he told their office yesterday that Trump was going to lose and they all knew it.

The thing I noticed during the debate - he was talking about fighting ISIS and told Hillary "Good luck with that" or something to that effect. I think he knows he's lost as well.

[smirkymonkey]

23. Good to know!

[NBachers]

18. A spent, deflated shell of a hate balloon that's had all it's rage sucked out of it.

The fleas who've been feeding off his anger will find there's no rage-blood left to draw.

Every one of his pathetic little rat-scabie horde has been so corroded with wrath that they'll soon be burnt-out cinders of collapsed hate and idiocy. Fade to black . . .

[blitzen]

19. He's basically telling his crowd that he's pissed at them...

because he's wasting his money.

[democrattotheend]

20. Interesting. Guess he is not as delusional as we thought

It is tough to keep campaigning and giving it your all knowing you are going to lose. I imagine this is how McCain felt toward the end in 2008 as well.

If Trump weren't such an atrocious human being running a campaign reminiscent of Hitler's in the 1930's, I might feel a little sorry for him.

[sweetloukillbot]

24. McCain hit that point in 2008 during the town hall debate with the "That Guy!" comment n/t

[democrattotheend]

27. I assume you mean "That One"?

I remember by the time the debate was over I and several other Zazzle designers already had "that one" buttons up.

[sweetloukillbot]

28. Yeah - I just remember he practically spit the words out

The contempt and frustration came boiling to the surface...

[Nitram]

21. "The Breakup"

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

22. I usually don't gloat

but I'll make an exception in this case.

[spiderpig]

25. I'll help you

[pat_k]

30. "So, if I lose, I will consider this —”

Moving to Russia?

Taking a vow of silence?

Well, one can hope.
