The irrational exuberance that Democrats experienced when their doomed incumbent decided to follow Nancy Pelosi’s order and step aside has become untethered from the fundamentals of the presidential race. As Rich Lowry on the right and David Axelrod on the left both pointed out this weekend, the presidential race is still Donald Trump’s to lose despite his blatant attempts to do so.
But at the same time, the number of diehard Republicans who were fired up to vote for Trump after the assassination attempt but are now scratching their heads over his choice to needlessly attack Brian and Marty Kemp is shocking. To put this in perspective, nine out of the first ten callers to my radio show were women who were furious at Trump for going after Brian Kemp’s wife.
Donald Trump can still win this race and there is a considerable amount of polling to suggest that he’s the slight favorite. Pair this with the potential of a market collapse and all-out war in the Middle East, Donald Trump is far from dead in the water. But what Trump has to remember is that despite his adoring fans telling him what he wants to hear at Mar-A-Lago, the majority of Americans do not prefer him. He has to stop reminding Americans why they don’t like him and remind them why they liked his administration. Watch:
It’s bad enough to badmouth our governor, but it’s really stupid to attack his wife.
Do you think anyone with influence is telling Trump to stop name calling and insulting people? It is likely to cost him the election. Plus it is unnecessary and embarrassing.
