Cluck, cluck, cluck: Trump has to suffer the consequences of his refusal to debate Harris a second time by Hal M. Brown, MSW

 Update:

I wrote about this yesterday but then this morning read this article in RawStory:

This is what he said about his first debate with Kamala Harris:


"Well, I thought that she had a debate which was interesting, because she wasn't answering any questions," Trump said. "And I thought it was a great debate for me. I thought it was one of my best debates that I've ever had. And some people disagreed, but I felt it was the strongest debate I ever had."

Objective armchair psychologists will say that this is further proof that Trump is delusional. In fact one person quoted in RawStory hit the nail on the head saying this:

Geographer Linda Stevens replied, "Narcissists are delusional. They make up alternate realities to fit their warped views of themselves."

"They have to if they don’t, they collapse," she added Saturday.  

I am not sure Trump is clinically delusional. He says things that suggest that he is but this can juts be an expression of his grandiose narcissism and denial. It is quite possible that Trump is aware that he not only blew the debate but that he is not capable of winning a second debate especially when moderators will have new questions that will put him on the spot. For example they would be likely ask him about his and Vance's lies about Haitians eating pets but will also  nail him on his support for Mark Robinson and the denaturalization process and mass deportations of both undocumented immigrants, those here legally, and even of naturalized American citizens his pal Steve Miller is saying Trump "turbocharge" on if he's reelected.

Trump may be well aware that he just can't dodge these questions the way he dodged the draft, recently dodged a bullet, and got away with one grift and lie after another for his entire adult life.

I don't know if these 2017 balloons are still available. I hope they are.
I propose combining the chicken balloon with the famous baby balloon.


This was posted before he changed his mind and decided to debate Harris the first time:

When I heard that Kamala Harris accepted CNN's offer to host another debate I wondered if Trump would accept it in the belief that he destroyed her in the first debate and wanted to do an even better job again.

It didn't take more than a few hours for him so say there was no need to debate her again.




I expect more cartoonists will be drawing Trump as a chicken again, but the t-shirt makers and at least one balloon maker already had shown him as plump poultry.

If I was a cartoonist I'd draw him as a chicken in a diaper with bone spurs although this sticker is already available from Amazon:

If you can't taste the Democracy killing poison in Trump's Kool-Aid there's something wrong with you.
