Media Fawns Over Trump Playing Make Believe At Closed McDonald's

Donald Trump made good on his pledge to work at a McDonald's restaurant on Sunday, and the media had nothing but praise for the convicted felon. But what few outlets reported at the time was that the entire event was staged and the McDonald's was closed. Even the people in the drive through line were hand-selected to participate in the staged event. Everything about this was fake, like Trump himself.

Also, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham appeared on Meet The Press on Sunday, and he ended up going completely bonkers when host Kristen Welker asked him why the generals who worked with Donald Trump call him a fascist. Graham started viciously attacking the Biden-Harris administration, as if that were some kind of answer to the question, and then he took aim at Republicans who are supporting Harris. The whole thing can only be described as a meltdown from Graham.

And with the 2024 election just two weeks away, Vice President Kamala Harris is scoring some very important early victories over Donald Trump. The first is a new poll that shows that she is beating Trump 2 to 1 among early voters, a huge advantage that allows her to focus on undecided voters for election day. The second is a poll showing that Independents are breaking for Democrats by a 9-point margin, which could easily be enough to swing the election in a massive way. 

And even before reports emerged telling us that Elon Musk's Super PAC was not doing the actual work of door-knocking that they'd been hired to do, reports were coming out telling us that insiders at Trump's campaign were starting to freak out over the complete lack of a ground game in swing states. His campaign promised a month ago that they were going to be opening new offices and hiring more people in swing states, but that never happened. With just a few weeks to go, it may be impossible for the campaign to make up the ground that they've lost.

Finally, during an event in Pennsylvania over the weekend, Donald Trump defended his mental prowess by repeatedly slurring his words, getting the name of the interviewer wrong, and failing to complete sentences. In fact, at one point Trump simply said "I have no cognitive," and stopped the sentence right there. The man did the entire event while sitting down because he doesn't even have the energy to stand for these events anymore.
