Donald Trump’s obsession with crowd size is certifiably weird. Yet it is surpassed in its weirdness his obsession with TV ratings.
Watching the Democratic National Convention play out this week is only worsening his public nervous breakdown. This breakdown was triggered when Joe Biden passed the torch to Kamala Harris.
Of course, the Obamas trigger his petty jealousies more than anyone else. Both mocked him with the kind of eloquent indignation Trump can only dream of muttering. But Trump must be worried beyond words watching Kamala Republicans rival Reagan Democrats as they take on MAGA Republicans at this DNC.
RFK Jr. to the rescue?
RFK Jr. hails from the most famous Democratic family in America. Perhaps that’s why Trump seized the opportunity to feature him at a counterprogramming event this Friday.
RFK Jr. plans to suspend his fledgling presidential campaign to endorse Trump. Evidently, Trump made him an offer he couldn’t refuse: MAGA Secretary of Misinformation?
To be clear, RFK Jr. is dropping out because his rich VP donor decided she’s thrown enough good money after bad. But RFK Jr. seems driven by a pathological need to sully his family’s good name. Only that explains his ill-fated presidential campaign, now reduced to seeking a Faustian bargain with Trump for a potential job.
