I guess he doesn't understand how elections work.

Not to get more voters but to massage and lock down his base of Nazis, bigots, racist, sexist and misogynists.

He even said he doesn't want more voters. He thought he was a shoe in to win the election against Biden. He pays the corporate media to do his campaigning for him.

So, he just needed to keep demoralizing the left...which the corporate media from the NYT to Fox were more than willing to do for him...and get his base out to vote.

He even disbanded most of the GOP field offices even in battleground states. He was counting on the corporate media to put out the propaganda and then the Russian trolls and bots to amplify it with the social media emporers. Much like in 2016.

But in 2016 he had the GOP doing the ground game of knocking, calling, getting registered voters. He has no ground game now. He wanted the money used on salaries, office space and logistics to pay off his legal bills.

But now Kamala Harris is bringing out enthusiasm, excitement and a new hope for the future among Democrats. Now we are very likely going to win if we keep our strong ground game going.

Now is when Pedo Trump really needs a ground game. But Trump is never going to give up that money to reopen field offices.

Now is when he needs a VP not to solidify his base but to get more voters. The very weird little man he picked doesn't bring more voters with him. He only brings along the same Nazis who were going to vote for Pedo Trump anyway.

Sorry, probably more than you wanted to know about the purpose of picking a good VP.

I doubt she's the kind of woman Vance would approve of, anyway -- she's not going to listen to any man just because he's a man! Sounds like you're that kind of woman, too!

Because you are going to need your Social Security and Medicare that you paid into, and Trump's Project 2025 aims to leave you hungry, homeless, and without medical care.

It's what they do - the GOP. Steal money from women who never took time off from work to care for their family, and whose contributions to SS were maxed out.

"Sure - it's only money - but it's your money honey - so go get your money."

JAG's Mom - Passed away June 5, 2024. Never made 2/3 what her daughter made in spite of being Executive Staff (East Coast VP) of a hotel management company.

All his businesses fail because he fires the workers, reduces their benefits, cuts out retirement support, keeps a bare bone demoralized staff, closes expansions, reduces support infrastructure and uses the money to fund his lifestyle.

That's what he wants to do to the US. Go down to a bare bones demoralized federal government and pass on all those tax dollars to his filthy-rich butt kissers.

And Putin is hoping he'll do just that.

Actually, that's a good point
He's had how many names? Three?
Is he now going to get a "running on the tRump ticket" name?
DUers, I'm sure, could come up with suggestions for a new name

Is his name Bowman, on his YLS diploma? And if he hates drag shows so much, why the eyeliner & nose contouring?

Why are people letting it get to them? He's nothing but a crackbaby. Move forward and keep supporting Kamala and down ticket Dems.

Idiots are going to idiot.
