It's hard to believe (but we must) that the election might be close:
Donald Trump supporters were left “stranded” for hours in sweltering conditions at the Coachella Valley rally impacted by a suspected assassination attempt on the former president.
The Republican presidential nominee spoke in California on Saturday at an event plagued with issues from the offset.
Along with Trump facing an altercation with a heckler, an armed Las Vegas man who held ID documents under multiple names was arrested outside the rally. Authorities claim Trump may have been the target of a third assassination attempt in as many months.
While thousands of supporters were bussed into Calhoun Ranch, which was situated about five miles away from where they parked their vehicles, people attending claimed the event organizers had neglected transport for the return journey.
And instead of being shuttled away from the venue after Trump exited the stage at about 7pm PT following a near-90-minute address, many attendees were left stranded in 93F heat, according to video footage on social media...
True!
Y'all, they the Trump campaign left his followers in the desert stranded again.. pic.twitter.com/iAEAGOC9dr

Sadly, morons are allowed to vote.
Donald Trump’s campaign has limited ability to know whether their ground game operation is reaching target voters in battleground states, as the software being used needs fast internet service to properly track canvassers, according to multiple people familiar with the situation.
The Trump campaign this cycle is targeting so-called low propensity Trump voters, who are often in rural areas, as part of their bet that hitting those people who don’t typically vote but would cast a ballot for Trump if they did, could make a difference in a close election.
But the Trump campaign and the Elon Musk-backed America Pac, which is now doing an outsized portion of the Trump ground game, use a management app called Campaign Sidekick that struggles in areas with slow internet and means canvassers have to use an offline version.
The Campaign Sidekick app effectively forces canvassers who have less than 40mbps of internet – sufficient to stream 4K video – to use “offline walkbooks” which have no geo-tracking feature and do not always upload after a route is completed, the people said.
As a result, the Trump campaign and America Pac then have little way to know whether canvassers are actually knocking on doors or whether they are cheating – for instance, by “speed-running” routes where they literally throw campaign materials at doors as they drive past...
We're not dealing with a competent, well- oiled, deathstar campaign apparatus here, folks. An operation with a sociopathic narcissist at the helm, with campaign minions selected for their loyalty rather than their competence; with fellow narcissist /exploding car and X/Twitter- destroying magnate/ campaign neophyte Elon Musk "doing an outsize portion of the Trump ground game" ... well, you can draw your own conclusions.
The real danger will be on Election Day and beyond, when the Malignant Loser declares victory despite losing, and his Republican cultists rally around to try to deny Vice President Harris a victory. A main difference versus 2021 is that the insurrectionists have already shown us what they're prepared to do. Whether the bold actions needed to forestall their plans take place in a timely manner or not, as well as Harris' margin of victory, will make all the difference.
