In sports, yeah. In politics it's different: "Damn he was bad, I'd love to crush him again to steal as much voters as possible."
When a prizefighter loses a fight, the first words out of his mouth are, “I WANT A REMATCH.”
Sounds like he was this close 🤏 to realizing that politics isn't sports nor entertainment there... Although to be fair, his base certainly seems to treat it that way
His base doesn't think it's sports.
They think it's pro-wrestling, what bothers them is that they aren't always scripted to win like they're supposed to be.
He must've lost the Biden debate then because he wanted another one. 🤔
It’s okay to be scared donald, she would have kept destroying you and we all know it.
Honestly I just want to see Trump in a town hall, like the famous Obama v Romney one from whence Ken Bone got his fame. That would be a fuckin show. Give Trump a mic but also give a mic to a few dozen people who can also respond to him.
Ken Bone was from 2016 I believe
Oh. Right you are lol
There wasn't a first debate. That was more of an ass-whipping. It was like watching a has-been WWE clown try to go into the ring with Tyson at his prime. Trump never engaged in debate, he just blathered and yammered like a demented, incontinent old racist.
He says he won and Kamala is proposing a "rematch". If he actually believes that he won he would gladly take the rematch. But he declines it, because he didn't win. He knows he didn't win and he is afraid that another debate would mean his utter defeat. All he is doing now is damage control.
Yeah I was gonna say, the other thing prizefighters do is never back down from a fight lmao
Trump was later heard saying
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb. In the shape of an "L" on her forehead.
If only Weird 34 was cool and coherent enough to quote Smash Mouth (and not get sued). Instead we get diarrhea dialogue.
I hate you for this comment.
Chickenshit pussy cant handle a real intellect
No shit, she handed him his ass on a platter. He won't do that again.
- Lose Debate
- Tantrum <-- we are here
- Complain election will be rigged.
- Lose election.
- Claim election was rigged.
- No one cares.
- Go to jail.
- Become old and frail and irrelevant before Christmas.
All I care about is #7.
Point 3 has been ongoing since 2015
Fujimori died today... Fuji who? I rest your case.
It's the point 6 where I think you might be deadly wrong. I hope you're not. But they're a lot more prepared this time, with judges in position to create enough scrutiny to question the election results, long enough to cause a lot of people who care get their beliefs reinforced that the country is lost to cheaters, and are ready to do a lot more than Jan 6.
Shhh. I'm being optimistic!
Seriously though, I think it depends how convincingly he loses. It's no secret that's the game plan, hopefully the dems have some counter measures in place.
I mean will it matter? If he loses a little it'll be "rigged to sway a small amount of votes" if he loses by a lot "it's so rigged they aren't even trying to make it look close!"
Yes it matters.
It's not really important what Trump says.
It will come down to pressuring officials to fudge the results. The less fudging required, the easier it will be.
This guy and his name calling lol. What grade is he in?
"I won the Debate." - lol, what?? There were no points. No one won. It was merely a chance for each candidate to appeal to the voters.
"Everyone knows this" - No they don't. If everyone knew that, he wouldn't be saying it just like he's not saying that we're on planet Earth because everyone already knows that.
"KAMALA SHOULD FOCUS ON WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE DONE DURING THE LAST ALMOST FOUR YEAR PERIOD." - She was the Vice President. Her role is basically to break ties in the Senate and go to social gatherings to fill in for the President.
"THERE WILL BE NO THIRD DEBATE!" - Cause he saw how much it affected him in the polls. If the debate had helped him, he'd be calling for more debates. It would make no sense to be losing but declining debates because it helped the polls.
He must have seen how stupid he looked up there. She was laughing at him with his stupid pet-eating rant. The dude tanked his chances with that part alone. The "concepts of a plan" was just a bonus.
During the debate, he said Kamala should sign a bill that congress never passed.
There wasn't a second debate, just a crime scene.
I do appreciate that he claims losers demand rematches without acknowledging that he is in a rematch after he lost 2020. Meanwhile, his wingman says celebrity billionaires should stay out of politics. Not a shred of self-awareness.
No no, Trump owes too much to Russia and the Saudi's. So he's not actually a billionaire but a desperate rat who has his debtors breathing down his neck. Therefore there is no conflict of interest!
He's like any other pampered rich person when they don't get their way. I can't wait until he rots in house arrest.
