Other clips from the rally went viral as well, including Trump saying, “I’m for us. You know how you spell us, right? U.S. I just picked that up. Has anyone ever thought of that before?”
I hate this timeline so much.

I just picked that up.
More evidence he's a challenged 5 year old trapped in an old man's body.
Jesus. This sounds like literally every parody version of George W Bush, trying to get a laugh out of how massively exaggerated they made his stupidity.
USA: We couldn't possibly elect a president dumber than GWB
GOP: Hold my beer...
Just because Donald Trump is a moron doesn't mean George W Bush wasn't incredibly stupid. Both things can be true.
Let's not forget that Bush only graduated from college because his parents donated money to keep him from being given failing grades and flunking out.
There are entire buildings on the Yale campus that only exist because W was such a poor student.

Sounds like another coup attempt being foreshadowed by Trump
Yeah, though I wouldn't be surprised if he legit didn't really want to be president in the first place, but the opportunity to fleece more people was too great for him to pass up so he just ran with it and can't stop now.
The grift is 100% there but I think he does want to be president again because he believes that that will absolve all crimes.

I'm not going to worry about voting on election night. Because I will have voted days/weeks earlier through my state's effective vote by mail system.

Didn't South Park already kind of pick up on the fact that Trump gives off the vibe that he doesn't REALLY want to be President, he just wants the perks of campaigning?
Mr. Garrison in like a whole 8 months of clips basically plots and plans on how he can get OUT of it, only to keep finding himself in situations where he somehow gets further in the polls.
This feels exactly like that.
He just wants his name in lights. It's a personality disorder.
He doesn't want to do anything. He never has had to.
It's not talked about how just so seriously mentally ill trump is. The Goldwater rule is probably for the best, but trump is, well, just look into the DSM. Way worse than Goldwater.The wiki captures it as well.
I went to a lecture of a criminal psychologist recently about psychopathy. Psychopaths are often also narcissists, and there are a number of personality traits to identify them. The more traits one has, the more likely the person is a clinical narcissist. Trump would check all those boxes, every single one.

I never knew that such a large portion of our population was so far below what I would have thought was the average intelligence until I heard they thought this man was smart. This guy is an idiot and that scares me to think what that means about his cult members’ intelligence levels.
No one dumb enough to think this guy is smart should be trusted with any adult responsibilities; not gun ownership, not voting and definitely not reproducing.

You don’t have to vote, don’t worry about voting. The voting, we got plenty of votes.
Why does it sound like he's got a mountain of fake ballots sitting in a warehouse that he's gonna drop from a blimp or some shit.

Me after reading the headline: "Haha, that's hilarious! Yes, Trump voters, don't worry about voting!"
Me after reading the article: "Well, that was disturbing."
It's so he can start bitching more and more after he loses again and his cult can try to overthrow the government again.
He wants to break the system, dumbasses.
He is prove the system is already broken. When in a democracy, voters who can read and write, who are impoverished and on avg can't even afford a $500 emergency vote for a billionaire, I'd say that is a failure of the system.

Asking your supporters to engage in voter intimidation for the next election when you've been charged, and will be tried shortly, for leading an insurrection after the last election seems like a great game plan. /s
I can't imagine being this guys lawyer. You must either be eating a handful of Tums every night, or your just as loony as him and actually don't see how everything he says and does it toxic to himself and everyone in his orbit.
His lawyers are just there to drag it out, they plan on using mob violence to settle things when time runs out if he hasn't been elected.

"Dont worry about voting, just intimidate and threaten the other people who are voting."
Sounds like he's instructing his people to harass and intimidate voters. Add it to the pile of crimes?
I think he thinks he'll lose, and he thinks a big loss is actually less believable to his supporters than a close loss, so he's trying to create a big loss, which will make more of his supporters Jan 6 2.0.
