The richest man on earth, and the best he can pull off is a shit show. Again

How fun— Harris had hers:

My god this is amazing. The way she just constantly castrates him every chance she gets is absolutely needed.

And the fucking dig at Elon.... he has got to be PISSED. You fucking know that narcisistic fuck saw this.

With each iteration comes evolution. Pushing Biden out was their worst mistake.

Harris knows how to fight a narcissist: with genuine awesomeness and attacking the person, not the persona. Everything terrible is just the Trump mask— attack it, and Trump just morphs into another one of his horrible hydra heads. But attack the beast itself, the core of who Trump is - a weak, insecure fraud starved for attention at any cost - and he has no defense. And it genuinely hurts him.

And then he gets angry, and he makes ridiculous, hilarious mistakes.

And that’s how Harris/Walz will win. :)

This is so accurate.

The way Musk butchered Twitter's architecture that hosting a talk failed. It is a real example of the shit they bring to the table.

Even more hilarious is how many live streams Harris and her team has done in the past month.

"Trump just told Musk - again - that people are coming into our country from 'mental institutions,'" wrote former MSNBC contributor Mehdi Hasan. "He definitely, and hilariously/ignorantly, has confused political asylum with mental asylum."

Holy shit, I've heard him mention the mental institutes thing before, but I never connected the dots in his mind:

Asylum -> Mental Asylum -> Mental Institute

That's so sad and hilarious at the same time. Trump never fails to amaze me with his absolute stupidity!

Elon Musk (L) says he will not directly back Donald Trump (R) or Joe Biden, but his X feed makes clear that his support lies with the Republican (NICHOLAS KAMM/AFP)

Oh, the guy who promised $45m dollars per month and hosted a live interview on his platform won't back anyone? Lying liars gonna lie, I guess.
