That was a lovely gift last night: the sea of empty seats at Trump's Volkssturm rally. This take is particularly juicy.
There was some shenanigans from kids ordering tickets so the Trumpists would think it was going to be an overflow crowd, but the reality was...the Trump Show is over. The rolicking assault on decency and "PC" has lost the spark of the original version in 2016. Instead, we have 122,000 dead Americans, 13.3% official unemployment and a president who is a global laughingstock.
The aggrieved white people that flock to these things seem to be tiring of them. The RCP polling average has Biden with a 9.5% lead, but the average isn't the median which is closer to 10 points...and growing.
Yes, yes, it's a long way until November. Yes, yes, act like you're losing. Yes, yes, we need to keep our eye on down-ballot races, especially in the Senate and governorships.
But Trump is flailing, and there is nothing in his record to suggest he can change course.
