    Nothing says ready to be president like not being able to coherently argue your points if someone criticizes you.

    No it’s not, “the democrats want to focus on personal attacks but what about X? Here’s my plan to deal with it…” There you go. You got to take a shot at your opponents and talk about policy. Of course you do actually have to have a plan and must be intelligent enough to do something besides spew hate out of your mouth.

      He’d also need to actually have policy worth focusing on. His only policy is Project 2025, and he’s busy trying to distance himself as much from it as he can because most Americans hate everything in it.

    Donald Trump said he’d like to focus on policy — as his allies are urging him to do — but can’t when Barack and Michelle Obama are delivering scathing critiques of him on prime-time television.

    Focus on policy, like the plan 2025, that’s what people want to hear about!

    “Did you see Barack Hussein Obama last night?” Trump said Wednesday at a rally in Asheboro, North Carolina. “He was taking shots at your president, and so was Michelle. You know they always say, ‘sir, please stick to policy. Don’t get personal.’ And yet they’re getting personal all night long.”

    “Attacking me is wrong and you should defend me!!!1!11!11”

    Trump surveyed the crowd at the rally asking them if he should ignore his aides advice: “Two questions, should I get personal? Should I not get personal?” - The crowd erupted for the first option.

    I’m surprised he’s not pushing “the assassination attempt was a librul plan all along” to gather sympathy.
