If youre 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 youre in a race where you also need votes from people who arent psychotic, you dont 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 arms length and take their chances. Pilip ended up losing by eight points. If shed had Trump come out and campaign for her, shed probably have lost by twice that much. But the ever narcissistic Trump cant 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. Trumps 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 cant win elections when they do embrace Trump, and they cant win elections when they dont embrace Trump. And they fully deserve the mess theyve made for themselves.

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.

Floored, I tell you! FLOORED!
