Journalist reports there’s ‘disgust’ about Trump within his own campaign
"Hard to overstate how terrible morale is inside of this campaign — and how much anger/resentment is felt toward the candidate," Tim Alberta said.
Summary
Tim Alberta of The Atlantic reports low morale and mounting frustration within Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign, with some staff expressing “resentment” and even “disgust” toward the candidate.
Once optimistic about Trump’s chances, aides are now worried as the campaign appears to be unraveling in its final stretch. Alberta shared that senior staffers feel exhausted by Trump’s increasingly erratic behavior, with one high-ranking insider admitting they partly hope for his defeat.
Never let them distance themselves from him. Let maga be a tattoo on their forehead for the rest of their life. Like Nazi tattoos.
I can forgive people for changing their minds once they've learned and experienced more. However, at this point, I don't think that there is actually any excuse for not learning or experiencing enough to not know who or what they're supporting. MAGA should be carved into their foreheads à la Inglourious Basterds. Make them advertise forever that they were dumb enough and hateful enough to fall for helping the most obvious con man imaginable to become a fascist dictator. At least the oligarchs have legitimate reasons to believe that they could benefit from him having power through cutting regulations and taxes for them. What the fuck do the millions of peasants in shacks in flyover states have excusing their donations and votes?
Yep, and that includes all these chucklefucks cozying up to Dems (even though Dem leadership seems thrilled to get more conservatives in the party) now that the ship is sinking. Every one of these "I'm a former Trump voter who is voting for Kamala" commercials gets that same reaction from me - where were you when he still had a grip on the party? Was all his bullshit too much for you then? Were you writing letters to your representatives then to ask them to stop inviting all the crazies in and stop moving towards facism and white supremacy?
If not, then I hope you help Kamala get in, but I give no shits after that. You were happy to let all the "right" people be hurt by Trump's policies all the way up to now. You were happy to lie in that bed until it was clear the ship was sinking, and all you really seem to be doing now is bringing echoes of the same shit to Democrats as Kamala and the rest welcome you to pull the party even further right in the name of votes.
Brands...it will hurt more...
Inglorious Baterds carved tatoo
Something interesting I never considered: would branding, that is over in a second or two, really hurt more than a 2-4 hour tattoo?
Side note, has anyone seen that horrific video of the college kids branding each other and the one held the iron on someone’s chest for like 10 seconds and pushed down and you could actually see it sinking into the persons body?
It’s fucking vile and I had finally forgotten about it but now I just remembered and I fuckin hate it
Where is Lt. Aldo Raine when we need him?
The only quality of gangrene that matters to me is that it's growing.
A nazi is a behavior, not a person.
As long as they still plan on voting for him, this is performative bullshit.
As long as they continue to help him overthrow democracy, it’s performative bullshit.
“Hard to overstate how terrible morale is inside of this campaign — and how much anger/resentment is felt toward the candidate.”
Aha. And you still ended up helping him. Shut up.
"just following orders" all over again.
There's only one thing trump has yet to steal from Hitler, and it's killing the leader of the fascist movement.
Here's to hoping 🍻
Yeah there's no way they've just realised what a piece of shit he is.
Pretty much on day one of his initial run he was caught on mic talking about sexually assaulting young women.
GOP: picks the most disgusting candidate possible
GOP when they get an abhorrently disgusting candidate:
If Trump loses , every last one of them will claim they never liked him and will deny ever supporting him. They’ll try their best to blend back into the woodwork.
with one high-ranking insider admitting they partly hope for his defeat.
Let us oblige them.
All the Trump cunts can eat shit and die. All of them.
Always has been.
Such a classy venue that four seasons
Jeez I sorta feel bad for these people who are helping him lie, cheat, and steal his way into one of the biggest seats of power in the world.
I don't. They can all rot.
Rats leaving the sinking ship. Just like there were no Nazis in Germany after 1945.
The original piece Alberta wrote for the Atlantic is actually amazing. There are a lot, "Trump aides secretly say [blank]," articles that seem like hopium, but this is incredibly detailed and well sourced.
Its the poopy diapers
I still can't believe Trump cultists wore diapers to his rallies and carried "Real men wear diapers!" signs after it came out that Trump is incontinent. Trump 2024 is truly the weirdest and most unhinged political campaign in US history. You can buy the fucking merch because these people are deranged and this is how they spend their money: https://www.ebay.com/itm/305576950729
After the 'garbage' comment last week, magats were talking about wearing garbage bags for Halloween costumes.
Somehow dressing in a garbage bag is a step /towards/ sanity.
The only thing that makes sense happening in his rallies, is everyone laughing, people dying from laughter.
This should already have happened after his first speech.
How can someone hear 2 hours of his bullshit and seriously come to the conclusion:
Yeah, ok - sounds good, he has my vote.
They’re clearly not loyal enough to serve him.
They’re not the best people for the job and he only works with the best.
Found the troll
Well that much is obvious, if I understood the situation correctly, he basically brute forced his way into being the primary candidate. They tried to run a different person and he more or less said "fuck you I'll just run anyway" and threatened to run independent/third party which would have split the republican vote and would have meant a loss for the republican party.
