A sign of more trouble at the ballot box for Trump. Truth Social is experiencing audience decline for last 3 months. Audiences had enough of the foul, harsh and lying rhetoric by Trump and his political allies. Trump has got more frustrated, angrier and now more isolated on Truth Social. This man is going downhill fast and there will be a breaking point to his mental state before November. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jul/31/trump-truth-social-audience

All the Presidents in the last 30 years served 2 terms. Can't be best if you kicked out of office in the first term. My advise to you is not to be too impulsive to challenge. Do some thinking before you rush into defending him.

In the wrong way as the worst US President in history.

No disagreement wth your opinion. If Trump does lose, do you think he will respect and acknowledge the election result?

Well apart from that, TRump got permission to construct a Trump Tower building in Jeddah that came with the Saudi government investing $2 billion with Jared.

Of course Trump alienated the world, You too uneducated on foreign policy or too embedded in TRump's hind to notice. Right from the start of his Presidency, he rankled allies with his first visit to Saudi Arabia. His absence at ASEAN summit and APEC session were seen as a snub to the Asia Pacific countries and a foreign affair disaster as countries pivot towards China. His America First policy caused reckless trade wars and his travel bans upset many allies. He pulled out of TTP offset the balance towards Asia and sent a bad message to the Asian countries that US has no vested interest in Asia. His pay to stay policy for troops in South Korea angered the host countries and encouraged North Korea aggression. In Europe, he thrashed America's most important allies to a point of alienation. As for the economy, US is the undisputed heavyweight of the world. Border will be better with the bipartisan border bill and there are always conflicts in Europe and Middles East.

Is this the big clue who will Kamala Harris pick as running mate? She will make the announcement on Monday and that person will join her in the rally. Oh my Josh! Kamala Harris to visit Philadelphia for campaign rally with running mate Tuesday

Saw a footage by Brian Shapiro of thousands leaving the Nevada rally in the middle of Trump's speech. Bored or perhaps bother by the heat? Certainly not provocateurs in those large numbers. Doesn't augur well for the campaign organizer and the monotonous repetitive speech.

The Georgia State University Convocation Center in Atlanta was filled to the rafters. The seating capacity in the stadium's website qouted 8,000 and 10,000 people turned up. The upper levels were all filled up unlike Trump's rallies where there were many empty seats on the podium level and empty upper floors. The energy was high with consistent cheering and chanting to lock him up. All were kept engaged throughtout the rally. Quite a different with the Trump's rallies with supporters bored and leaving in the middle of his speech. Challenge was thrown to Trump to debate which he wouldn't have the guts. Star powers were there and Georgia dynamo Starcey Abrams delivered. The deficit in Georgia polls have now been narrowed to a dead tie. With the second wave momentum at the DNC and running mate announcement, things are looking super for the Dems to keep Georgia blue.

Maga is fracturing. White dudes for Hariss and Haley voters for Hariss are just the begining of the movement out of Maga which will gain momentum. Evangelical leaders like Franklin Graham has not endorsed Trump even though he was in RNC. GOP political leaders like border mayor John Giles is the latest Republicans to crossed party line to back Kamala and rebuke Trump's extremism. He is calling the Maga talking point of the "border crisis' a big bs. As polls tanked further for Trump, we can expect more Republicans to have the courage to step forward to rebuke Trump. Kamala is energizing the election campaign displaying leadership while Trump is still stuck in his groove with the same old fear, hate and incoherent speech. If he see no election pathway, I fear Trump to go scorch earth.

Democrats should consider using Fred Trump labelling of uncle Trump as 'atomic crazy'. That's another level of craziness.

There was fury by his faithful supporters who called for riots and violent retribution before the verdict and when the verdict was handed down; nothing of that sort happen. Supporters even how stupid will not invest their life for him. A small bump of support from his loyals after the conviction but then receded back as days waned. The conviction will cost Trump support. As for the Dems, they just fold their arms and watch the trainwreck of Trump. Kamala will hasten the trainwreck and eventual derailment in November.

No said the majority of Americans.The verdict by jury of his peers was correct and will affect his electability.

And help regain the trust and confidence of the Supreme Court. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/new-poll-shows-majority-of-americans-believe-supreme-court-justices-put-ideology-over-impartiality

So true that Trump is high risk as regars to geopolitical tension. His previous election caused the Doomsday Clock to move forward by 30 seconds which is closer to imminent period at any point in the last 64 years. Trump is seen as an undisciplined and disruptive President and backing away from its long standing leadership role in the world. He was also seen as controversial working to undo policies and not addressing the climate change issue. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jan/26/doomsday-clock-closer-to-midnight-in-wake-of-donald-trump-election

I don’t really understand your broad terms for good and bad. If it’s crime that you are concerned, study have found that immigrants commit less crimes than US born. Immigrants undertake high risks to come to US for a better life and less likely to commit crime. The bipartisan bill allow for more resources to process the legibility of immigrants and reduce the number of illegals. Stopping the bill indirectly increase the number of illegals. Employing the illegals is against the law whether you rich or poor. Benefit no one but the rich dudes have their means to avoid the law like Trump.

Let’s clear the myth about open border which Trump used to scare the people. Open border suggest that anyone can get into US without much hassle. The reality is that the southern border is more fortified than it’s ever been. Illegals don’t have the authorisation to work. You should know that or don’t you. As for legal immigrants, you can read for yourself what role they play for the over well being of the US economy. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2020/06/10/a-majority-of-americans-say-immigrants-mostly-fill-jobs-u-s-citizens-do-not-want/

It’s 5,000 average a week that will trigger a shut down. US has a labour shortage problem. 7 in 10 employers unable to find suitable employees for their job vacancies. Most are jobs that UA citizens doesn’t want. The bipartisan bill will provide solutions which Trump killed.

MLK fought for right to vote, desegregation, labor rights and other basic civil rights. If he is alive today, he will agree with those who called for a cease fire and a 2 states solution.

Former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michele Obama, 2 most popular Democrats have endorsed Kamala Harris adding more firepower to the next 3 months campaigning. Now the Democrat base are energized to come out to vote which meant trouble for Trump's election chances. https://apnews.com/article/barack-obama-endorses-kamala-harris-joe-biden-48e38547560ae64484399d278c697a7a

He also said America is a stupid country and his MAGA followers nod their heads in unison. Jesus wept.

There is one thing that Trump promised and kept i.e. won't commit to peaceful transfer of power.

Same old rally speech not without his favourite line about Hannibal Hector that bored his supporters to leave. His party seek an image overhaul and proclaimed that Trump was a changed man after the shooting but alas it is the same old same old Trump with his tired incoherent speech.

You are confusing yourself with a party procedure and the constitution. Whatever float your boat gaslighting.

The taxes from the rich which Trump gave away will more than pay for the welfare of the people. Middle class was decimated under Trump big tax cuts for the rich. He brag about ending abortion but too coward to do it himself and leave the burden to the states https://newrepublic.com/post/183227/trump-biden-debate-roe-v-wade-abortion-rollback
