Donald Trump was sure of his victory even two months ago. He was so convinced that he started talking about huge victories. That, of course, was before Joe Biden withdrew from the election. The situation has changed since Kamala Harris succeeded Biden as the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate. Not only has she narrowed her previous gap with Trump, but she has also moved ahead in most opinion polls. Trump cannot accept this at all. Unable to figure out how to stop Kamala, he is now acting a bit paranoid.
Let me talk about public opinion first. According to the latest Reuters national opinion poll, Kamala Harris leads Donald Trump by four points nationwide (45 to 41 percent). Kamala Harris has surpassed him by reducing the previous deficit in various important ‘battleground’ states. Kamala Harris leads in three of the four states known as the ‘Sun Belt’ in the latest poll released by Fox News known as a Republican supporter.
Trump was furious with the poll by his loyalist Fox News. According to his campaign camp, this survey is not accurate at all. He is not only ahead of Kamala, but he has also increased his support more than ever. A Democrat commentator commented that the Republican presidential candidate is suffering from confusion. He has lost the ability to understand the difference between black and white.
Although sarcastically speaking, Trump’s current behavior makes it clear that he is somewhat disoriented. He says things his supporters are embarrassed about, especially Kamala’s election meetings, which are getting huge crowds. Donald can’t accept it at all. He claimed without evidence that Rally images are not authentic; they are AI-generated (artificial intelligence). Hundreds of thousands gathered at the Detroit airport to see Kamala; we all saw that picture on TV. His statement that nothing happened is a lie.
Donald Trump, compared to his rallies without any reason. He said that his meetings have more people than ever before in the history of America. His debut in 2017 drew so many people that it surpassed Martin Luther King’s March on Washington in 1963. It is good to say that more than 250,000 people attended that historic meeting of Martin Luther King. On the other hand, as an official, Trump’s inauguration was attended by over 20,000 people.
After listening to these talks, many people questioned Trump’s mental balance. A few years ago, he had a helicopter crash with San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown and narrowly escaped injury. He made this claim in a recent speech. The story is quite interesting, and he survived the assailant’s bullet a few days ago. But the problem is, that is not true at all. When we asked Willie Brown about this, he almost choked up with laughter. “He’s a complete liar,” said Brown.
Referring to that, the Los Angeles Times wrote that the man has a mental illness. Public radio NPR reported that the Republican presidential candidate told 162 lies during the news conference at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida. According to the Washington Post’s count of lies he told in the last four years, the total number has already exceeded 30,000.
Last week, special counsel Jack Smith launched a new case against Trump. The case alleges the January 6 riots and Mar-a-Lago tampering with government documents. Trump was so enraged that he posted 27 messages in half an hour at midnight on his Truth Social website. In it, he made various taunts against Jack Smith and accused Biden’s justice department of a deep conspiracy against him. Trump also alleged that Biden is plotting to kill him. However, he did not see the need to submit any evidence for this statement.
Trump continued his vile attack against Kamala on Truth Social. More recently, he shared a post made by others, suggesting that Kamala and Hillary Clinton had a sexual relationship. Earlier in another post, he commented nasty about Kamala and Willie Brown.
The fact that the matter is not ordinary did not escape the journalists’ attention. Trump advisor David Urban recently spoke to CNN about him. David Urban has repeatedly told him that instead of these empty words, he should talk about pressing issues like immigration and the economy. That is what is needed now. But he ignored David Urban’s words.
Kamala Harris and her campaign seem to be enjoying it. The more dirty things Trump says against this black woman, the lower his support among women voters will be. A few days ago, he made fun of Kamala Harris’ complexion. I knew him as an Indian, but now I suddenly see him as black. Kamala Harris called Trump’s allegations false. Kamala has always identified herself as simultaneously black and South Asian. When asked about this in an interview with CNN last week, Kamala said with a soft smile, “These are old political games.” Drop this question, say something else.’
