a long time.

And yet the polls are still shockingly close... -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Sep 2, 20:27
I think his handlers realize that every time he does something, he reinforces why people hate him. So, don't do anything and people rehab him - Will Hunting Sep 2, 16:43 8
- I mean, he managed to fuck up at place honoring dead soldiers. I'd hide him, too. -- nm - David Sep 2, 18:16
- The media willfully pretend this is all perfectly normal and that yesterday never happened. -- nm - Qale Sep 2, 16:47 2
  - Did I miss something yesterday? -- nm - amanda Sep 2, 18:27 1
    - He said during an interview on FoxNews "Whoever heard you get indicted for interfering with a presidential election, where you have every right..." - Qale Sep 2, 18:30
- I mean, welcome to the patriarchy. The dinosaurs are in their death throes, and they just get crazier. - loosilu Sep 2, 16:46 3
  - Blaming the patriarchy/dinosaurs suggests Biden would be able to get away with everything Trump does and I doubt anyone here believes that. - con_carne Sep 2, 17:13 2
    - It's not just about age, it's about conservativism. -- (edited) - loosilu Sep 2, 18:19
    - John Mulaney does a bit on this that is quite good -- (link*) - Beaker 🍻 Sep 2, 17:17 [youtube]
Not giving up exactly, but depending on courts and poll watchers and challenges and all the accompanying ways to skew the results. He can’t give up entirely or he’ll go to jail -- nm* - mara Sep 2, 16:33 3
- They are planning on spending their money on election lawyers rather than campaign ads. nm - ralph wiggum Sep 2, 23:40
- I wonder if he's banking on a civil war as he's ramping up the fraudulent votes from illegal aliens -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 2, 18:42
- He's doing what he did all his sleazy life. Using courts to buy time. At some point, that clock runs out. -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 16:47
His campaign absolutely have strategies. Trump just listens to them only when he feels like it and pretty much same thing with Vance. - con_carne Sep 2, 16:26 3
- His campaign is like, the 6th round of flunkies. There is NO ONE competent who works for him. -- (edited) - loosilu Sep 2, 16:42 2
  - Well actually knowing the strategy is far above my pay grade, just that there are differences. Trump famously complains about his differences with his staff himself. This axios article lays it out better than I can -- (edited) - con_carne Sep 2, 17:01 1
    - Those are tactics, not strategy. He does his own tactics, that's old news. -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 18:23
I don’t think that means he still can’t win, of course. -- nm - Qale Sep 2, 16:24
He wants to be President and do all the cool stuff, just none of the work to become the Pres or do really do it. -- nm - Remlik Sep 2, 16:24
And he can vanish between now and Election Day and still get 48% of the vote and 260+ EV. -- nm - Tim Sep 2, 16:24 2
- Can he? you sure? He lost it last time, and he's been working hard to lose supporters for 4 years. - loosilu Sep 2, 16:44 1
  - And Harris is a black woman (racists be racists, misogynists be misogynists) with some stench of Biden on her. - amanda Sep 2, 18:26
