Trump's comments about the Medal of Freedom. [View all]

Trump is:

*PURSUING* the presidency

*RUNNING* to be President of the United States

*CAMPAIGNING* to be president

*STRIVING* to be president

As part of these efforts, he made a comment directly stating that the Medal of Freedom is better than the Medal of Honor.

He either has no idea about the ramifications of what he says, or he doesn't care how people interpret his words, or he's dead stupid. It's one of these three things. I do not see any other possible scenarios.

And either way, whatever the answer to the above is, his statement disqualified him from legitimately pursuing the presidency.

I think the answer is that he doesn't care about what he says, because he believes he has a solid plan to steal the election, regardless of the vote count.

The same goes for Vance's comments about women.

Surely, they're both not so stupid as to not understand that BOTH VETERANS AND WOMEN VOTE IN ELECTIONS.

All of this tells me that's there is something very fucky in the air. Two men (Trump and Vance) running for the highest offices in the land, and yet, they are seemingly sabotaging their own desires with apparent carefree glee.

There's something much bigger going on than an election. They have a firm plan to steal it, and they do not give one flying fuck about the vote outcome. They are confident in their plan.

I think Marc Elias is well aware of this, and it is my hope that the Harris campaign is getting all of their ducks in a row in order to circumvent this. Because the fun is just beginning after the vote count. It's going to be a shitshow of scrambling lawyers.
