#Trump seems to be on a mission to prove he’s still relevant and it’s not going well. His “interview” with Elon #Musk over on #Twitter Space may have been the nadir. He claimed that 66 million people joined but I think he simply conflated two numbers—the approximately 1 million people who logged on, and the 65 million of us who were laughing from afar.

In addition to his incoherent and hateful ramblings about immigrants, at one point Donald actually said Vice President #KamalaHarris’ portrait on the new cover of Time Magazine looks like his wife, #Melania. 

I’m not even sure how to interpret that and I’m a trained clinical psychologist. From everything we’ve seen in the last three weeks, it’s clear Donald’s already tenuous grasp of reality is deteriorating. The success of Kamala Harris’ campaign is getting to him in part because he knows there is nothing he can do to stop it.

On Tuesday, Axios reported that Donald is running an “alternative reality campaign.” 
“In former President Trump's version of reality, Vice President Kamala Harris' crowds are AI-generated, he's leading in nearly all the ‘real’ polls, and President Biden might reclaim his spot on the ticket at any moment.

“Why it matters: None of those things is true. And Trump's advisers and allies worry he's spending so much time in alternative reality that it's undermining his real-world campaign.”

The man who is running to be leader of the free world has lost his grip on reality and is conjuring opponents, poll numbers and AI-generated crowds from thin air. Compared to that, JD Vance seems grounded, if appalling.
