People are criticizing the Harris campaign. How about the Trump campaign?

I am not going to give Trump credit for a good campaign just because he won. I think he won in spite of his campaign, not because of it. I am only talking about the public side, not whatever his campaign did behind the scenes. It looks like they did well getting their voters to vote. I think Harris ran a much better campaign.

Let’s look at the Trump campaign:

He was sometimes several hours late for his rallies.

He told lies over and over

He said terrible things about Harris

He complimented Hitler

He staged an illegal political photo op at Arlington Cemetery

He made racist comments

He called his opponents “vermin” and “the enemy within”

He lost the debate and said dumb stuff like “eating dogs and cats”

He hasn’t always paid for the places he held rallies in

He often used music without the permission of the artists

He was sometimes rambling and incoherent

He hampered relief efforts in North Carolina by lying about them

He said there was election fraud without any basis for his lie

He had 39 minutes at one rally where he didn’t speak

He praised fictional killer Hannibal Lecter

He appeared to mime giving a blow job to a malfunctioning microphone

I don’t think this constitutes a good campaign.

Trump doesn’t want to unify America

If he did, he wouldn’t talk as badly about his opponents.

Lack of factual information opens the door for conspiracy theories on the Trump assassination attempt

I don’t think it was staged by Trump.

I don’t think the government did it.

The amount of factual information that has been released is inadequate which creates an opportunity for people to create conspiracy theories.
