One of the best things about Kamala Harris’ entry into the presidential campaign, besides naming Tim Walz and the wild enthusiasm for their ticket, has been watching Trump allies desperately pleading with him to stop the name calling, exercise “discipline” and “focus on issues.”
Spoiler alert: It ain’t happening.
In what supposedly passed for a “news conference” Thursday, Trump proved for the zillionth time he hasn’t matured past sixth grade.
In this particular edition of “Unhinged Felon Deluded Into Thinking He’s Presidential,” Trump was asked about the allies who want him to stop the personal attacks on Kamala Harris “and deliver a more disciplined message.”
Trump’s response was exactly the kind of whinefest of grievances his allies are begging him to stop. “With all of the abuse we’ve taken from the fake news media, all of this horrific abuse we take and all I want to do is make the country great,” he began. “We did so many great things, but that’s the way it’s been for Republicans, and I guess more so for me than anybody in history. And that’s OK because we’re leading in the polls.”
Actually, he’s sinking and losing in the polls.
