During his press conference at his Bedminster, N.J., property, Trump was asked by multiple journalists about criticism from some Republicans that he needs to be more disciplined and lay off the personal attacks on Harris. He responded that he was “entitled to personal attacks.”
The Harris campaign criticized the event, saying he had “a stream of not-much-consciousness” and then “it did not get better” when he took questions.
“At his country club, Donald Trump, huffed and puffed his opposition to lowering food costs for middle and working class Americans and prescription drug costs for seniors before pivoting back to his usual lies and delusions,” spokesperson James Singer said.
lol genuine question: what the fuck is wrong with people who STILL think trump is going to listen to anyone who tells him anything other than everything he’s doing is perfect, and exactly the right thing to do
It’s a wonderfully baited question. If he agrees he admits he’s undisciplined and isn’t being effective. If he disagrees he gives more ammunition to the unhinged, old man losing his mind narrative.
Even without the obvious fact that trump never backs down it’s so good to make the news cycle about him losing (his mind or polls)
Honestly, I’m starting to think that he’s just a contrarian whenever a question is phrased like that
The follow up to that question is “can you name three things that you are not “entitled to”?”
