  1. We all know this election isn’t about who wins, it’s about who loses the least.

  2. Doubt it. He could fart into a mic for 93 minutes straight and his brain dead cult would *beg* for more.

  3. Why is MSNBC the only news org saying stuff like this? It’s fucking irritating. I read a promising headline then I see it’s them and just keep scrolling.

  4. It’s simple.

    The Dems can select a new candidate who can talk properly and convey a message, and maybe have a chance of winning.

    Or they can stick with Biden who clearly has zero chance of winning, can’t finish a sentence and reminds everyone of their bitter, arrogant old grandpa right now who doesn’t want to give up the car keys.

  5. That speech was bad, he’s obviously in mental decline, he should drop out and let them bring in a younger candidate.

  6. Ahh yes MSNBC famously known for its objective opinion about all things Trump.

  7. This is why MSNBC is not respected.

    Flat out lying to their audience is a poor decision.

  8. He’s leading in the race and he delivered a pretty standard Trump speech. Trying to claim he blew an opportunity seems like huge cope.

  9. Bringing up “the late great” Hannibal Lecter wasn’t awesome enough for his people? 🤔

  10. Trump should end his candidacy he is obviously mentally ill.

  11. All this momentum about Bidens mental state only to prove in a 90+ minute ramble that 45 is equally not all there on the best of days.

  12. Trump was unfit in 2016, 2020, and 2024. He’s gotten more unfit each year. GOP loves filling the swamp!

  13. These articles are pathetic. Republicans are behind this turd no matter what. These are dope articles for people that read about Trump all day.

  14. He did blow it. He’s got the chance to sweep up a vast majority of moderates, but he literally can’t help himself from devolving into false rhetoric, lies about elections being stolen, etc. He’s unbelievably small minded and if he was any smarter, he’d already lock this race up. Instead he’s going to coast and try to win with just his base.

  15. Trump could shit his pants on national TV and still win this election in a landslide. That’s how bad Biden and the DNC have fucked up.

  16. If Biden stays in the race Trump will win, no question about it. These articles are circling the titanic.

  17. Its July still too soon to predict & the race will tighten in the fall but the way things are heading I would not be surprised if no one gets 300+ electorals this time around

  18. If he has even a little bit PTSD his meandering verbal style could be reduced to mush.

  19. It’s not so much that it was a dud, since his base will eat up anything he says, but that for once there were high expectations of Trump going into the convention. There was wind in his sails because of the debate and the attempt on his life. He had a chance to deliver any kind of noteworthy speech, whether it was a fake attempt to heal divisions or an unhinged attack, but it was like a lower energy version of his rallies and full of his usual ramblings. He is past his peak

  20. The best timeline is where Trump loses this year and republicans nominate him again in 2028 from jail lol

  21. If Trump was a Democrat, the Democratic leadership would be in a panic, magnifying this so that it reduced his support within the party.

    But the GOP isn’t going to throw their guy under the bus, and the average MAGA cheerleader won’t care about this at all.

    Dems should take note and respond similarly to their own problems. Dems pour gas on small fires while fooling themselves into believing that this is somehow virtuous or smart, when it is neither. The debate could have been a minor blip that could have been finessed away within a few news cycles, but the Democrats went out of their way to blow it up.

  22. The cope I’m seeing out of this sub is unreal. Trumps party is going to gleefully vote for him regardless.

    I guess biden decided he’s staying in the race and is banking on trump motivating the dem turnout because he sure as hell isn’t.

    Dems trying their damnedest to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory again

  23. Did the amount of trump supporters increase since the last Presidential Election he lost by a landslide? Maybe when he lost the last time, his peaceful transition of power to the winning candidate gained him more voters? Maybe being found guilty of being a rapist boosted his chances? Then again, being found guilty of misappropriation of corporate assets to pay off a porn actress to commit adultery, then deducting the proceeds off his taxes won him supporters from the christain nationalist and The Family at the national prayer breakfast, and the District Court of NY. Maybe after losing the election and collecting donations to “Stop the Steal,” and keeping the proceeds curried favor from individuals that wouldn’t support him prior too. Then again he did make all those appointments of individuals that were unqualified to receive those positions, like the Department of Education and the Department of Labor, let alone the AG and the SC…
    Why did the RNC nominate him? Because he’s unfit for any office?

  24. If he had decided to stop his speech at the point the script ran out (three sentences after he finished talking about his brush with death), and never spoke again until election day, it would have been a given.

    Just as with his opportunity to step up during COVID, he was given a lay-up with this speech so close to a major event. Instead of a lay-up, he putted? Not sure what game he is playing.

    Instead, *four* sentences later, he rolled into old, low-energy grumbling rambler…”the demmycrats are using lawfare!”, and “I really won the election…everyone told me, ‘sir, you won bigly, the bigliest!'” and…”I’m gonna name drop here and point…expect this seventeen more times. Just when you think the speech is over, I’ll keep talking. And you’ll applaud louder, trying to get me to wrap it up…but I’ll just…keep…rambling!”

    And then his base says it was the best speech ever, even as people, including his wife, walked out on him mid-speech.

    The transcript reads like AI-generated parody.

    Dud, indeed.

  25. Well Biden dropped out soo who knows what will happen now

  26. Gavin Newsom for President!

    He has done a stellar job as the governor of California and he can beat Trump on every level.

  27. Trump reminded moderate Republicans why they hate Trump.
