With just 15 days until the presidential election, Donald Trump’s recent rhetoric and behavior have sparked concerns about his fitness for office.
Vice President Kamala Harris and top Democrats are seizing on Trump’s bizarre antics to inject new urgency into her campaign, labeling him “unstable” and “deranged”.
Trump’s comments have been particularly alarming, including suggestions that he could use the US military or National Guard against the “enemy from within,” which some interpret as a reference to Democratic lawmakers.
His remarks have also raised questions about his cognitive abilities, with Harris’ running mate, Tim Walz, claiming Trump lacks the “stamina” to be president.
Despite his erratic behavior, Trump remains competitive in the polls, which are currently deadlocked.
He consistently leads surveys on issues like managing high prices and handling immigration, suggesting that voters may be willing to overlook his controversies ¹.
The Harris campaign is now fully exploiting Trump’s rhetorical rampages, with the vice president arguing that Trump “demeans” the presidency.
Former President Barack Obama has also slammed Republicans for excusing Trump’s behavior, saying it shows “utter disregard for our Constitution”.
As the election nears, Trump’s behavior has polarized the country, with liberals viewing his actions as a stunt and his supporters seeing them as authentic ¹. Ultimately, it will be up to voters to decide how to process Trump’s recent conduct and whether it disqualifies him from office.
