I was worried that assassination attempt would skyrocket his approval. Glad to see it's still dropping and he's continuing to look like an idiot.

Right wing media stopped covering it when they found out the shooter was not a Democrat. They switched to focusing on the Secret Service.

Desperate, old and just really fucking weird.

What's really amazing is that he doubled down on this.

Trump cannot admit he's wrong. That' such an attractive personality trait, isn't it...

Can we just collectively question Trump’s race? Idf if he is a tomato or an orange 🤷‍♂️

The FOX reporting of this event is just sad.

"Sir, have you no shame?"

“I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now she wants to be known as Black. So, I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” Trump said

"I didn't know about this thing, so it didn't happen until I knew about it" is a concept my child needs to learn about, not a presidential candidate....

I would beg someone to explain code switching for him, but I doubt he'd care.

Who knew that health care could be so complicated? No one.

He doesn't understand how sombody can be more than one thing. Because everyone around him is so one dimensional.

Indian mother and a black father and still American? How is this possible?! Its nearly as if she fell out of a coconut tree.

If only it were that sweetly naive.

He is a fascist. He does not believe a person can be all three of those at once.

Kamala Harris was “Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn and she went, she became a Black person.”

I wonder if this is why he stopped donating to her campaigns...
