Kurt Schlichter:
“…And all the problems associated with being in the spotlight vanish for Trump. While people who aren’t sissies enjoy Trump’s two-fisted, take-no-prisoners style, Trump fatigue is a real thing. He can be exhausting to the weak and squishy who sadly make up a substantial part of the electorate. This diagnosis gives him a chance to pull back, to chill a bit, and when he does that his approval tends to rise as his achievements speak for themselves.
Up until now, Donald Trump had been running a center-of-attention campaign, talking to the press all the time, doing tons of events and generally being in our faces while Gropey J was being in his basement. Joe Biden has been happy to be out of the spotlight, since direct light is hardly flattering. He (and his controllers) would prefer to have him sitting in his Barcalounger, slurping his mush and staring at his stories.
But now Trump has options and does not have to be the focus every day, giving his soft supporters a respite from his restless energy. He couldn’t stop doing press and rally events before without drawing scrutiny, but now he can. Ditto dodging the next debate – he can do it if he wants, or not do it if he wants, with no fallout. He can still talk to the press if he feels like it, he’ll just have to be in a plastic bubble. But if he doesn’t want to, he doesn’t have to, and then you have a press with no one to talk to, so maybe the pressure grows on Joe to fill the void. And when Joe fills a void, it’s like when Nadler fills his trousers.
There are a couple of other intangibles. The first is this is yet another moment where the Democrat left comes off the leash and starts saying out loud all the things they were only supposed to say under their breath. Their dancing around hoping that Donald Trump will die, and that his wife will die too, is repellent to normal human beings. Since normal human beings are not a key liberal demographic, they probably don’t understand what psychos they sound like…
…He’s going to get the best medical care in the world; he’s going to be just fine, and after burning up a couple of weeks in the White House he’s going to close the election with a barnstorming tour across the United States the likes of which we haven’t yet seen which will highlight his potency and contrast it with Oldfinger’s decrepitude. It will be a comeback tour and it will be fresh. All the rallies and things could’ve gotten old, but there will be double the attention on them now in the last couple weeks because he’s the underdog, he’s come back from beating the disease, and also because we haven’t seen him at a rally every day. Trump the showman has to know that.
Trump is going to triumph over this disease like he triumphed over the disastrous Obama economy and our garbage establishment’s track record of failure. This will show his strength and position him for a comeback since he’s now the plucky underdog. Joe Biden’s handler’s better be worried. Their plan just got disrupted, and Donald Trump has once again seized the initiative…”
