Trump launches re-election campaign, presents himself as outsider and victim

[Krataiboy]

Love him or loathe him, his record on the economy is impressive, which is what counts most with the electorate.  Even the biased BBC. which arguably loathes Trump even more than some of his detractors on this forum, have had acknowledge his achievements.

It's mind boggling his base believes this stuff coming out of the mouth of a self serving arrogant elitist.

Well the supporters are probably not the sharpest tools in the shed.

It is appalling that so many people are now living in their cars, that to protect the people sleeping in the cars, some carparks have installed gates and lock them in at night, and have hired security guards

These are people who have at least one part time job in many cases, cannot afford accommodation, or utilities. Some of them have their school aged kids with them

BBC doesn't loathe Trump.

And nowhere in the article you linked to is it claimed the present economic situation is a trump achievement, in contrast, it is stated many developments were set in motion before he took office.

Trump has been an outlier, not an outsider.

If he fails re-election in 2020 he will likely become an insider in federal prison.

You don't think the Russia probe was an assault on him, his family, and his associates?  If you quit listening to MSNBC & CNN for 5 minutes you might hear something besides Russia! Impeach! Trump is deranged! The country is in great peril because of the liar Trump!

I've asked before and I'll ask again:  Where do you Trump supporters get your news?

What a LIAR!

But his marks eat it up.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/06/19/fact-checking-president-trumps-reelection-campaign-kickoff/

Here we are again, four years later, fact-checking a campaign kickoff speech by Donald Trump.

The fact-checkable claims were different this time around, but history repeated itself nonetheless. Trump’s campaign kickoff speech in Orlandowas littered with the same false or misleading claims he has so often repeated as president.

Interesting that most of the homeless, seem to reside in states run by Democrats. Some of the homeless have some issues, but generally speaking, there all sorts of jobs out there, no reason not to get one.

Yes it does. That's precisely why they are so grudging in acknowledging how well the US is doing economically under his stewardship.

Nobody's perfect.

[beechguy]

The problem for the Democrats, is they still aren't presenting a good candidate. People like Biden is what got us to this point, and Bernie or Warren? Please, no need to BS people about free stuff, it's not free, some tax payer working for a living will have to pay for it.

I wasn't trying to get bogged down in details. The point I was making is that despite 2 1/2 years of Dem demonization, Trump can still get a cheering crowd of thousands. If the propaganda had worked, he'd have had a few tramps and a old cat to greet him.

Back to the drawing board, Dems.

Yes, and there are thousands who believe in Bigfoot, the Loch Ness monster, Qanon, etc.  There are always thousands (millions actually) who will believe what they want to believe regardless of the evidence or lack of evidence.

Don't you worry none...the Dem machine there has been busy since the last Dem rigged election...working overtime to ensure Trump does not win the southern colorful counties...

Rigging?  You mean by doing things like reducing early voting opportunities (early voting primarily benefits people with inflexible work schedules) and having an inadequate number of voting locations in areas with large minority populations?  That was done by Florida's Republican government, which has long been keen on voter suppression and gerrymandering.

 

" Florida, for example, reduced the number of early in-person voting days from 14 to 8. At the 2012 election, several Florida polling places with large populations of color experienced wait times of up to 7 hours.

He is certainly a victim of the media.

Trump says and does outrageous things because he loves the media attention, and because he loves to play the victim.  The media plays along because reporting on the President is the media's job.

 

Trump told obvious, outrageous lies the day he was inaugurated and has been telling such lies ever since.  The media has been calling him out on some of the most obvious and outrageous, they don't have time to call him out on every lie.  That doesn't make Trump a victim.

Over two years in office and his highest approval rating, according to the pro-Trump network, is 45%.  That should tell you something.

Trump raises $24.8 million dollars in 24 hours smashing the record. A large amount of it from small donors. Here is a brilliant line from Trump that basically sums up the dems in their totality.

 

"Our political opponents look down with hatred on our values and with utter disdain for the people whose lives they want to run."

A brief history of Trump's small-time swindles

"A far more sweeping investigation by USA Today found Trump was involved in over 3,500 lawsuits during the last three decades. "At least 60 lawsuits, along with hundreds of liens, judgments, and other government filings" were from contractors claiming they got stiffed. USA Today also found "24 violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act since 2005 for failing to pay overtime or minimum wage."
