Donald Trump has completely berserk meltdown about losing special election

If you’re a Republican candidate in a moderate swing district, the most surefire way to lose is to let Donald Trump stand next to you. Trump is toxically unpopular with everyone outside his cult base, so if you’re in a race where you also need votes from people who aren’t psychotic, you don’t want Trump anywhere near you.

To that end, Republican candidate Mazi Pilip did the thing in the New York special election that Republicans in moderate districts usually do: they keep Trump at arm’s length and take their chances. Pilip ended up losing by eight points. If she’d had Trump come out and campaign for her, she’d probably have lost by twice that much. But the ever narcissistic Trump can’t grasp that.

Trump had a rather berserk meltdown on social media on Tuesday night, referring to Pilip as a “very foolish woman” and accusing her of being a Democrat. Trump’s rant kept amping up until it became fully unintelligible, including this bizarre string of words: “I STAYED OUT OF THE RACE, “I WANT TO BE LOVED!” GIVE US A REAL CANDIDATE.”

Wait, who wants to be loved? Anyway, the Republicans are now at a point where they can’t win elections when they do embrace Trump, and they can’t win elections when they don’t embrace Trump. And they fully deserve the mess they’ve made for themselves.

is the way he is. No one has ever loved him and like a needy child he acts out to get attention.Good or bad attention, it doesn’t matter.

in his rage and his skivvies. challenging an F-150 to a head-on duel at rush hour. Whereupon there would then be a new, large, greasy, orange spot in the road vaguely smelling of McDonald's secret sauce and unloaded diapers. And the men will cheer / the boys will shout / the ladies they will all turn out / and we'll all feel gay when Donald gets squashed by a truck.

At this point, I would be shocked if the Diaper Magnet graciously accepted defeat and conceded the loss.

Floored, I tell you! FLOORED!

will never learn that love and respect have to be given freely, and not forced through fear and intimidation. Those methods only foster resentment and even loathing, which will slowly expand and eventually burst free.
