In a sign of desperation, Donald Trump returned to Twitter and began posting in an attempt to salvage his flagging presidential campaign.
Trump tweeted:
Are you better off now than when I was president?
Our economy collapsed. Our borders have been erased. We are a nation in decline.
Make the American dream within reach again. Make America safe again. Make America Great Again!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 12, 2024
Donald Trump There are no answers. Trump’s only approach is to try to make every election like 2016.
Now Trump loses to Kamala Harrishe’s talking about bringing back some of his 2016 employees (Kellyanne Conway), and now he’s back on Twitter.
Trump has always believed that Twitter is a magical platform. The former president believes his Twitter account will bring him victory in 2020.
It makes perfect sense that Trump would return to Twitter in a desperate and failed attempt to recapture the magic of 2016.
Trump tried to take back the news cycle and stem Harris’ momentum with an interview with Elon Musk.
Musk needs Trump to draw attention to the social media platforms he bought and destroyed, and Trump needs to do anything to regain his and Harris’ attention.
Instead of campaigning or reaching out to voters, Trump is on Twitter. This is the laziest, most unimaginative thing to do, and it won’t save Trump’s campaign.
