TSF Just Got an Embarrassing Wake-Up Call From a Stunning New Poll

Nicknaming President Joe Biden “Sleepy Joe” doesn’t seem to be looking so good for Donald Trump now that he’s the old man in the race.

A Morning Consult poll published Monday revealed that voters are suddenly viewing Trump as the decrepit candidate after Biden dropped his campaign. Americans are apparently far more likely to describe Vice President Kamala Harris as healthy, mentally fit, and a strong leader than the 78-year-old Republican presidential nominee.

According to the poll, 71 percent of respondents agreed that Harris was “in good health,” while 52 percent said the same about Trump—6 percent fewer than believed the same about Trump when Biden was the presumptive Democratic nominee.

The number of respondents who thought that Trump was “mentally fit” for the job also dropped. Roughly 64 percent of respondents believed that Harris was mentally fit, while just 48 percent believed the same about Trump—a 5 percent drop from before Biden withdrew.

Trump can't help himself, but they could have.

Weird for the felon

I’m just rambling, but after president Harris completes her two terms and after President Walz completes his two terms he will be younger than the felon is today.

And the felon will probably age several years after his sentencing in September.

And apparently the felons campaign doesn’t want felons to vote. Weird.

This country has no place for narcissistic con man dictators. The republicants tried it once and failed. They are now trying again, and the results will be a total failure.

The good news? Trump has totally destroyed the republicant party. You could see it coming.

The outcome? Trump will be destroyed in the next 90 days and be put in jail for the rest of his life. Democracy will prevail.

Ummm...

OK, boss.

You really think this is going to get a lot of endorsements? People will pile on and praise you?

1. I'm not a boss. Never was, Never will be. I'm pretty pumped up right now over the Harris Walz ticket. They should demolish Trump.
2. I'm not out for endorsements, praise, or people piling on me. It's my opinion that September will result in Trump finally going to jail. My hope is it will be for the rest of his life. And we're not done prosecuting yet. He should/shall pay for his crimes.
