24 hours of #Trump: #QAnon tributes, crude attacks & hawking pieces of his suit
With <70 days until the election, Trump is zig-zagging w/an arsenal of unfocused broadsides & peripheral pursuits.
Trump amplified a vulgar joke about VP #KamalaHarris…. He falsely accused her of a staging a coup to secure the Democratic nom & faulted her w/o evidence for a security lapse that enabled a rogue gunman to try to assassinate him [as if overseeing his USSS is part of her duties].

#Trump shared a #manipulated online image of #BillGates in an orange jumpsuit & called for #BarackObama to face a “military tribunal.” He promoted explicit tributes to the #QAnon #ConspiracyTheory. He hawked digital trading cards in an online #infomercial along w/pieces of his debate night suit (“People are calling it the knockout suit”). His campaign feuded publicly w #ArlingtonNationalCemetery.…
And that was just in the span of 24hrs.
…when it comes to #Trump, the burst of activity on Tues & Wednesday was a snapshot of the #chaos that has defined his #political career & in some ways marked a throwback to his first run in 2016, when he waged a frenetic, unpredictable campaign that put his party on edge all the way up until his surprise victory.

“I think people are incredibly frustrated,” said Jason Roe, a fmr #Michigan #GOP exec dir & longtime #Republican strategist. #Harris’s campaign & policies, Roe said, “provide opportunities for the #Trump campaign to talk about issues that actually will matter to swing voters. And rather than doing that, he’s delving into this #nonsense.”

…[disgustingly] many [#Republican] voters have embraced or repeatedly brushed off Trump’s most incendiary behavior. #Trump won an upset victory in 2016 despite the leak of a tape in which he bragged about groping [#SexualAssault] women, which many in the #GOP had viewed as catastrophic. #Republicans have largely rallied behind Trump this campaign, defending him through his false claims of a stolen election [#BigLie], his #criminal charges, his #conviction this spring & a slew of controversies.
…As…[the #Arlington] saga unfolded Tues, Trump’s interview w/ #DrPhil aired. The friendly conversation #Trump filmed last week turned into another venue for him to air #inflammatory claims about his opponents w/o evidence. “I think to a certain extent it’s #Biden’s fault & #Harris’s fault,” he said of the attempted assassination…, adding, “They weren’t too interested in my health & safety.” There is NO #evidence that Biden or Harris were personally involved in decisions about Trump’s security.
#Trump spent Wed morning venting on…his social media. He let loose a flurry of reposts just after 8AM. There was an image of #Biden, #Harris, #HillaryClinton, fmr House speaker #NancyPelosi, fmr WH medical adviser #AnthonyFauci & others in prison uniforms. There was a call to jail members of the congressional cmte that investigated…the #Jan6, 2021, attack…. Another repost used a #QAnon slogan: “WWG1WGA! RETRUTH IF YOU AGREE.”

Just after noon, #Trump began to claim — w/o evidence — that #Harris was exaggerating her online footprint. “IT’S ALL FAKE,” he wrote. Soon he turned to resharing a video of himself promoting digital trading cards for $99 a piece: Buy enough, he said, & you could get a physical card w/bits of Trump’s outfit from the June debate that helped push Biden out of the race.

Coming soon Trump reliques. Perhaps a lock of his hair. A glob of his earwax. Toenail clippings. Image how much a jar of his jizz would fetch!
