He must be scared of the boolets lol

The last rally where, for the first time ever, he actually interacted with a small child in the stereotypical "kiss the baby moment", but he was very obviously us8ng the child as a human shield from would be sniper shots, was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while.

Like imagine considering this guy a literal god among men and you bring your family to his rally and he calls your kid up on stage and just positions your kid right in front of him while calling Harris a communist for 2 hours. And now you have to actually listen to his whole shitty speech cus you have tpnget your kid back.

that kid had a chance to do something really cool

Worse yet, it was his own grandchildren.

I would love to see the 2020 numbers as well. This could be partially justified by saying that in 2016 he was establishing his political presence whereas now he is already widely known. But if he has reduced since 2020, then this is a sign of a loser, which I would love to see.

Edit: 2020 numbers:

June, after convention: 2

July: 0

August: 9

September: 15

October: 35

There has been a decline in August and September each time

Who can really blame him, every time he steps foot in public he's either being yelled or shot at.

Having to do you rallies in a bulletproof glass box because people keep pointing guns at you is kinda like having to wear a condom because your partner has an active STD flareup.

The shooter scared him so bad he stopped running rallies entirely in oct/nov πŸ€”

maybe-later-kiddo "Aha! All those court appointments and legal battles you tankies poopooed kept him too busy to run his circuses. I bet you all feel pretty silly right now."

Guess he’s having trouble finding wiling locations, seeing as doesn’t pay his rally bills

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 27 points 1 month ago (3 children)

He was doing two rallies a day in Oct. 2016?

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 44 points 1 month ago

Usually one big one and then a sort of afterparty rally at a second nearby location like that hilarious one that ended up accidentally being in the parking lot of an adult video store.

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 27 points 1 month ago

It checks out, yeah

Lots of same state, same day stuff, but still a lot of events

[–] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 23 points 1 month ago

He does not have the juice

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 19 points 1 month ago

Maybe hes doing remote rallying. Damn gen z/millennials

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago

He's not going have a single rally until election day? Somebody's got to be on the teevee spewing racism and hatred for the routin' hogs. I wonder how hard they'll work Vance. How many rallies will he have a week? Trump must be thinking of that idiom - the third time's the charm.

[–] cricbuzz@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

He seems old to the point where his rhr and Max hr are somehow equal

[–] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

Our little dry president

[–] SaniFlush@hexbear.net 11 points 1 month ago

He's so tired

[–] degen@midwest.social 11 points 1 month ago

A little too rank to be washed (understatement)

[–] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 month ago

impressive that "democracy is on the ballot" when your opposition is a big dry boy who wasn't even bothering to campaign. He'd be toast against anyone competent and not-evil
