As Election Day draws nearer, the status of the competing campaigns is evident in their activities. Kamala Harris has been fanning out across the country – focusing particularly on the critical swing states – and blitzing the media with strategic appearances on a broad diversity of national and local news outlets, including Fox News.

Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been sequestering himself within his MAGA media bubble, refusing to appear anywhere that might present the slightest challenge, and canceling previously agreed upon interviews. He has already nixed appearances on 60 Minutes, NBC News, CNBC, and even an NRA conference.

Trump’s fear is palpable. but his judgment is probably sound, even if wholly inadvertent. After all, he is utterly incapable of completing a rational thought, expressing an intelligent opinion, or avoiding humiliating gaffes. His own staff has said that his curtailed schedule is due to his becoming exhausted. That’s a bad look for a near octogenarian, with noticeable signs of cognitive decline, who is seeking one of the hardest jobs in the world.
TRUMP: Get your fat husband off the couch. Get that fat pig off the couch.
Given reports that Trump is exhausted and is canceling campaign events and interviews, this is something that his handlers are probably saying to Melania every day. https://t.co/2oIPPEKAjs

However, Trump has shown up for a few interviews where he is guaranteed not to face any confrontational questions or suffer the indignity of being fact-checked. And most of those have been with his very own Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News. In just the past month Trump has visited with such dependable Fox News Trump-fluffers as…
- Sean Hannity
- Laura Ingraham
- Brian Kilmeade
- Greg Gutfeld
- Maria Bartiromo
- Larry Kudlow
- Fox and Friends
- Harris Faulkner
- And this coming Sunday, Howard Kurtz
That’s a superstar line up of fiercely partisan MAGA devotees who have spent the last couple of years proselytizing for the Cult of Trump. The frequency of Trump’s visits averages out to twice a week. This is an unprecedented relationship between a so-called “news” network and a political candidate. Trump might as well have his own graphics and theme music to accompany his programs.
What makes Trump’s hiding out at Fortress Fox so preposterous at this time is that it can’t possibly benefit his campaign. He’s speaking to an audience that is already committed to voting for him. So while Harris is out in the field rounding up every vote she she can, Trump is preaching to his hideously off-key choir.
Something else that makes this peculiar is that, despite his constant presence, Trump has also been blasting Fox News for being less than unconditionally worshipful of him. That sort of waffling is intolerable to Trump. For some recent examples…
Trump Joins the Fox News ‘Curvy Couch’ Potatoes to Complain About Fox News
“I’m going to tell [Rupert Murdoch] … Don’t put on negative commercials for 21 days, don’t put them — and don’t put on the air their horrible people.”
Trump Slams Fox News Shortly After Gushing Over Bret Baier’s Hostile Interview of Kamala Harris
“Why does Suzanne Scott of FoxNews keep putting on third rate ‘talking heads’ like Jessica Tarlov…If I win…it is DESPITE Fox, not because of them!”
Crybaby Trump Tells Fox News that They Should Only Put on Sycophantic Trump-Fluffers
“What’s the purpose of me doing a nice show and then they put nine horrible commercials on, which are all lies…You can’t do that.’ Fox should put just the good people on.”
Crybaby Trump Unleashes a Flaming Freak Out Vilifying Fox News for Not Censoring his Foes
“Why is FoxNews putting on Crazy Kamala Harris Rallies? Why do they allow the perverts at the failed and disgraced Lincoln Project to advertise on FoxNews? … We have to WIN WITHOUT FOX!”
TRUMP IS RIGHT! In a Mad Rage, Felon of Foy Declares that ‘Nobody Can Ever Trust Fox News’
“Nobody can ever trust Fox News, and I am one of them, with the weak and ineffective RINO, Paul Ryan, on its Board of Directors…You don’t need him. ALL YOU NEED IS TRUMP. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
More to Trump’s liking was the interview he did with Maria Bartiromo where he made his abhorrent threat to use the U.S. military against American citizens who disagree with him. He later doubled down on that threat during a town hall/infomercial that Fox News aired with host Harris Faulkner…

For the next three weeks we can expect more of the same. Trump will continue to be too afraid to sit for any real interviews, or to debate Kamala Harris. But he will still grace his Fox flunkies with his lying, demented, presence knowing that they will never point out his mental defects, ignorance, or dishonesty. Most of the country knows that Trump is unfit to serve in any office. Here’s hoping that enough of them will turn out to vote between now and November 5th.

Don’t forget that President Biden has FULL IMMUNITY for PRESIDENTIAL ACTS. So, if any losers choose to attack our democracy, they have the Supreme Court to thank, in addition to their false prophet leader, for the reward they will receive and so richly deserve.
Their last words will be, “This has been such a REVELATION!” ——————— (flatlines for flatliners).
If you remained MAGA after his COVID response, you were pathetic, but if you stayed after January 6, 2021, you are WORTHLESS to the entire future of humanity. They are unworthy of sympathy.
