“I can’t believe the GOP is running an old guy for president.

Yikes.

” Trump’s reaction to his recent assassination attempt – pumping his fist and mouthing “Fight, fight, fight!” – has been full of vigor and helped unify his Republican party behind him.

After his brush with death, he vowed to run a “unity” campaign.

But that pledge dissolved on Saturday when he returned to disparaging Biden, Harris, and the Democratic agenda, and has been delivering his usual rants on the campaign trail, often laced with conspiracy theories and even a reference to a shark.

After Biden announced he would abandon his re-election effort, Trump responded to Biden’s announcement, saying his now ex-rival was not fit to run for president and “not fit to serve”.

Trump said last week he didn’t think that switching out Biden for Harris “would make much difference”.

“I would define her in a very similar way that I define him.

” A pro-Trump SuperPac accused Harris on Sunday of being “in on” a cover-up of Biden’s “mental decline”, and characterized her as the driving force behind the administration’s policies.

Democratic strategist Hank Sheinkopf says that Trump’s “less than gracious” response to Biden stepping down is something they will hope continues as a successor to Biden emerges.

“Trump is reverting to type, Biden is out of the picture, and Trump is the only one who can seize defeat from the jaws of victory.

Without having Biden as his opponent, and calling him ‘Sleepy Joe’, who is he going to rail against? How he attacks a woman is very different but you can already tell from the way he attacked Biden on Sunday that he’s not thinking clearly.

His vitriol has taken over again.

Democrats will be able to use Harris as an offensive chess piece in the suburbs of the country, women’s right to choose and reproductive freedom, and hope that Trump screws up by overreacting so they can accuse him of being incapable of controlling himself because of his age,” Sheinkopf said, “and it becomes a different race.
