I bet he is trying to use this to drown out media coverage of the Arlington debacle.

I doubt he’s capable of that level of strategic thinking. It’s more likely that his handlers are simply directing the firehose of shit to that purpose.
2D Checkers!
Bingo!!
and they collapsed like a house of cards. checkmate.
Good point. I should have said "they are".
he's not "trying" to do anything, he does this shit all the time anyway. It was his entire schtick even before becoming a candidate in 2015 or whenever. If the Arlington thing happened last week you'd be saying the same thing about reposting the Taylor Swift AI images. This is just who he is, and 30-40% of the country (in key electoral college areas) are also childish bigots so it works for him.
He does this to get people to talk about him. He hates not being the topic of every conversation. He will do ANYTHING to become the most spoken about topic.
There are no depths he won't plunge to. I'm genuinely worried that at the debate, he will soil himself and start throwing it around while Kamala is talking.
The more he does these sort of basic misogynistic and racist attacks, the more people he turns off. Sure, just a few here and a few there, but everyone has their limits and he is reaching a lot of limits.
Will they vote for Harris? Probably not. I think he's going to face the issue the Democrats were looking at facing before Biden dropped out: a bunch of people on their side staying home on election day.
Don’t. Don’t give me hope.
Donald Trump is a rapist.
And republicans love that about him, because it distracts from their own rapings in their minds
And convicted felon
Trump hates women of power, because of his narcissism combined with an enormous inferiority complex, he needs to feel inherently superior because without his inheritance he would be an absolute nobody with no real skills or talents.
He knows he is inferior to these women he degrade, but his narcissism forbids him from acknowledging it.
You know how Trump always says others are doing something, but it turns out it was him that was doing said action the whole time.
That motherfucker sucked a dick.
Well, he is Putin's cock holster.
Nothing new. The dirt Putin has on Trump has been known for years....
Come to think of it, I haven't heard the piss tapes mentioned in a while.
Trump brought it up last November in Iowa.
He was with four hookers. You think that was good that night? To go up and tell my wife ‘It is not true, darling. I love you very much. It’s not true!’ Actually, that one she didn’t believe because she said ‘He’s a germaphobe, he’s not into that. He is not into golden showers, as they say, they call it. He’s not.’
I don’t like that idea. I thought that would be a big problem. I was going to have a rough night. But that one, she was very good on. She said ‘You’re okay on that one.'”
Singular? Doubtful.
All this talk about blowjobs…wait until they hear about Nancy Reagan.
Tell me more...
Yeah, pics or it didn’t happen.
I’d rather it didn’t happen than pics.
Hollywood was pretty rife with trading sex acts to get parts at the time so joking about her likely having to give oral to get parts is kind of gross.
So he admits that he has run out of real arguments already, months before the election?
JD Vance has sex with a couch and Trump is a rapist who objectifies women, they truly are a pair forged in hell.
He only has one mode of operation. When things aren't going well he's just going to double down on the same tactics.
