Trump losing sleep over polling numbers days before election

www.thedailybeast.com Trump Losing Sleep Over Polling Numbers Days Before Election

The GOP nominee is growing obsessive in the last mad dash to Election Day.

Donald Trump is reportedly losing sleep, battling anxiety, and obsessing over his polling numbers as the GOP nominee hopes to hang his hat on any sign that he will return to the White House.

A campaign official told Axios that Trump is asking more questions and pushing his staff to work even more to ensure that he will come out ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris come Election Day.

"Trump's anxiety is evident in his late-night and early morning calls to aides in which he peppers them with questions on how things are going---and whether they think he'll win," Axios reported.

Honestly though I hope he just strokes out from the high blood pressure
- I want his death to be so nonchalant that nobody even realizes he's actually dead.
  like, he goes to take a shit and dies on the toilet and nobody notices for like a day.
  and when they find him hes all riggered up and covered in shit and piss.
  and the person to find him is a secretary he's treated like shit for years. she takes pics of him, sells them for a huge amount of money, and everyone mocks him for the next two generations.
  and in every history book, the last line will be about how he died covered in his own urine and feces.
  
  He was a piece of shit. In his final moments, he was comforted by his kin.
  
  Agree with everything there, but man. I wouldn't want to get on the bad side of your imagination.
  
  Now give us a chalant one
  
  he is making a public statement about the results of the election, complaining about how it's rigged against him. He makes the comment, "as god as my witness, I'm not lying!" when he suddenly grabs his chest and pleades into the camera, "me... save... me..."
  blood begins to run out his nose all over his face and suit as his face contorts in anguish.
  the cameras continue to roll as he falls off stage into an unmoving heap on the floor.
  footage cuts to eye witness testimony where a man with a deep southern drawl says, "We was lookin up at him and God struck him down! he fell right in front of me, and began to shit and piss himself. God as my witness!"
  the news will run it as his heart hemorrhaging, conservative media will say his heart was too full of love. but all anyone will remember is he died shitting and pissing his pants on national television.
  
  I was hoping for a chest-burster alien maybe
  
  lmao what kind of loser writes out detailed fantasies like this?
  
  Yeah don’t stop there. I’m close.
  
  A truly fitting epitaph
  
  As if he shits on the toilet...
  
  lmao what kind of loser writes out detailed fantasies like this?
  
  the same one that made you read it.
  twice again
  
  You're essentially bragging about shitting your pants in public.
  
  For someone who read both nonchalant and chalent versions, you don't seem to have been paying attention to the text.
- My feeling is that he'll never face any real tangible consequences for all the shit he's put the world through. He'll have his final Big Mac Attack and dodge justice for good. Permanent delay tactic.
  
  his image will be rehabilitated by capitalist media like george bush's was
  
  I kind of think not. Bush/Cheney polarized the country but not to the extent Bonespurs has, and that's what I think he will be known for. Once his political allies, who are just using him for their own gain, find that throwing him under the bus is better for their careers, I think he'll end up on history's scrap heap of epic fails.
- As much as I'd love it for him to stop being a threat to all that is good on this planet in the most final of ways; We're still in some deep shit even if he were to drop stone dead right this minute between his mob of dickhead supporters, and his running mate.
  ...Actually I have to go look up what happens if the president elect dies right before he's elected.
  
  Vice pres takes over and then selects a new vice pres.
  
  That is literally the face you make when you get some good news and immediately get kicked in the nads.
  
  Is that even before they take office? I've never known that
  
  Uh... no, Walz won't take anything over when Trump finally eats his last french fry. It'll just mean his remaining felony trials get canceled.
  
  You know his running mate is Vance, yeah?
  
  I think they were joking... implying Kamala will be the one elected president whether Trump dies or not.
  
  Depends on when the death occurs. I don't know what would happen if the death occurred after the people vote, but before the electors cast their votes.
  
  I'm thinking Nov 4th or something. Like, before a great deal of the votes have been cast, or today even.
  I know beyond a certain point his VP would probably just be it
  
  "If the Republican candidate dies or is incapacitated after the convention and before Election Day, the Republican National Committee (RNC) will meet to select a presidential candidate and/or vice-presidential candidate under Rule 9 of party rules.
  ...
  The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is also authorized to select the party’s nominee in the event that the winner of the convention cannot run. This is spelled out in the charter of the Democrat Party. However, since DNC members are awarded to states according to the size of the states, there would be no adjustments.
  ...
  If the candidate dies or is incapacitated after Election Day, the Constitution kicks in. The first milestone will be the December 17, 2023, meetings of the electoral college. It may surprise many to know that the electoral college is composed of real flesh and blood electors who meet in their state capitols and sign documents (attestations) that are forwarded on to the president of the Senate (the vice president) for the purposes of counting only! We only hear about electors when someone decides to make a point and vote for someone whose slate they were not on. (During segregation some of these so-called “faithless electors” voted for segregationist candidates.1) Some states have laws binding electors to vote for the winner of the election, others do not. If the winner of the convention dies or is incapacitated it is likely that the legislature would quickly meet to amend the law so that their votes would count.
  Finally, what if the president-elect dies or is incapacitated after the electoral college meets and before the inauguration? The authors of the 20th Amendment to the Constitution, the one adopted to provide for a way to pick a new vice president, thought of this. If the president-elect dies or is incapacitated the vice president is inaugurated. Section 3 of the 20th Amendment reads:
  “If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President.”"

  I’m fairly certain this has been the plan all along.
- I'd like him to get his mind corrupted to the point he can't spell a word and panicing all the time. And live for another ten years in that screaming baby condition. Just a small puncture in his brains' blood vessels to flood it all - is that too much to ask?
  
  I'd like his mind to get corrupted by being able to feel what other people feel.
  
  That's too much to ask probably.
- I hope it's much more painful than that.
