Honestly asking Trump voters: how can you support him after this bizarre episode?

NYT also confused.

Again, two different medical emergencies interrupted Q&A, so he took a break while medical teams were at work. The only thing bizarre is how everyone on this thread ignores facts. (Typical for the site.)

Harris has lost 5 points and is even in the most recent NBC national poll. She needs to be up by 3 at least nationally to win the EC.

She is tied or losing in a lot of Wisconsin polls. Biden was up by 10+% at this time in 2020 and only ended up winning by .7%. Similarly, she is polling far behind Clinton and Biden in every swing state.

Harris is appearing in Fox News on Wednesday because she’s desperate. She’s so desperate her team is talking to Joe Rogan about doing an interview, which is going to just lead to a focus on transgender surgeries for migrants and prisoners and “gender affirming surgeries,” issues she does not need to talk about to gain swing voters and moderates. She topped out in the polls after Trump’s bad debate and has been sliding down ever since. The more TV and podcast appearances she makes, the worse her polls get.

There are no big events (debate) between now and the election. Her campaign is freaking out.

That Trump is so relaxed that he is turning his rallies into an old person disco and isn’t even bothering to fire up his base should worry Dems. As should everything I mentioned.

This! All Trump has to do is let her talk. She never answers any of the questions, and I suspect she loses more votes with each interview.

If you don’t like that she “doesn’t answer any questions” how can you tell us with a straight face that you will vote for Trump since he doesn’t answer any questions either? Please explain your double standard.

?? We all know what he stands for. Close the border. Deport the illegals. Allow fracking and drilling to bring energy costs down. Support Law and order to stop the crime (that affects so many blue cities). What kind of a crazy question is that?

“Let’s not do any more questions. Let’s just listen to music. Let’s make it into a music. Who the hell wants to hear questions, right?” he said.
For 39 minutes, Trump swayed, bopped — sometimes stopping to speak — as he turned the event into almost a living-room listening session of his favorite songs from his self-curated rally playlist.

He played nine tracks. He danced. He shook hands with people onstage. He pointed to the crowd. Noem stood beside him, nodding with her hands clasped. Trump stayed in place onstage, slowly moving back and forth. He was done answering questions for the night.

He briefly returned to talking about the election and the importance of winning Pennsylvania. After Noem gave Trump the option of closing “with a specific song” or taking “two more fast questions,” he addressed one of his aides: “So Justin, how about a couple really beauties and we’ll sit down and relax.”

It was time to listen to Andrea Bocelli’s “Time to Say Goodbye.” After listening to James Brown, Trump began to speak again, as if remembering that he was still at an event that was billed as a town hall.

OP, last night there were two separate medical emergencies in the crowd (heat related), since the hosts of the Town Hall couldn't afford A/C in the tent. Were President Trump to continue answering questions while medical teams were at work, you'd have something to say about that as well.

And this is why people are voting Trump. People are sick of manipulators (you/the media) openly bending/hiding the truth to propel forward someone who is desperately unqualified.

The medical emergencies were quickly resolved outside of the arena. Trump didn’t need to sway to music and mumble to himself for 40 minutes out of respect for those people his rally was cooking.

Wait why didn’t Trump’s team fork over money for AC? What a load of cr@p

Are you trying to get us to believe this is the first time people have fainted from heat at a Trump event? Because we all know this has happened numerous times. And guess what: Donny never has stopped the proceedings and just swayed to music awkwardly for 40 minutes afterwards.

You guys are panicking that Don’s dementia is really kicking in and it’s going to be increasingly hard to hide it.

Here is the explanation to what was going on. How desperate is the Harris camp to spread such lies.

If there were medical emergencies or the venue was too hot and it had to be cut short, he should have left the stage and the audience would leave.

I don't know what you're talking about, but I have been watching the Trump rallies on You Tube, both Trump and J.D. Vance. So much livelier and more enthusiastic than Kamala's

I can see where you might get the impression that Trump's rallies are livelier though I would disagree. But you lose all credibility when you claim that Vance's are lively at all.

He takes actual questions from the audience and reporters. I have to say I think he's very solid and maybe the smartest of the 4 people in the race.

There hasn’t been a single answer from Trump supporters, just trolling like this. They know their party is foundering, OP.

I don't think Trump voters really care. A couple of months ago, there were at least 70 million people who were willing to vote for Biden even though he was obviously unwell and incapable of being commander in chief. If elected, Trump is going to be in his 80s, the oldest president ever. He too is unwell and rapidly declining and has no business being in the Oval Office. But in a polarized America, it doesn't seem to matter. People aren't voting FOR something. They are voting AGAINST the other side. They would vote for a toaster oven if it meant keeping Kamala Harris out of the White House. And same vice versa. If you were to put Trump versus Toaster Oven on the ballot, I guarantee Toaster Oven would win 70 million votes.

Unlike you, I’ve actually watched Trump when he is asked questions and he never answers them. Never. He goes off on bizarre tangents. Like when someone asked what he is going to do for small businesses he rambled on about gas stoves. WTF? His “knowledge” of current events is so shallow and poor he should get welfare for it.

Hey did you know that the gun violence deaths are higher per capita in red rural areas than in blue cities? True fact! Look it up. A 2023 study found gun deaths are more likely in small towns than in big cities and the findings were published in JAMA Surgery.

Democrats are once again taking his actions out of context. There were two lengthy medical interruptions during the event, so he decided to entertain the crowd with music.

And they are using that to prove he’s unhinged or unstable. These people are liars. Harris and Democrats are going in hard on trying to paint him as unstable because they are losing this election. You can see the desperation from her team.

Yeah, not debunked. Last night’s event was decidedly bizarre. He looked like a confused old man awkwardly bobbing to the music.

The United States is currently producing more domestic energy than any other nation has in history.

How does him swaying to music help the hot crowd (and yes he didn’t spring for A/C in there - the high that day was only 70) any more than his (not) answering questions from the audience was?
