This week in GOP stupidity

 "Dumb Donald is really dumb!"---Gene Rayburn, Match Game, 1973-84.

If someone could x-ray the brain of former president Donald John Narcissus Trump, they'd probably find orange peels and prunes where his brain cells should be.

In the wake of a disastrous debate with Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday, Trump was back on the road, continuing to push false claims about Haitian immigrants in Ohio taking neighbors' pets, and eating them like cannibals. The 78 year old Trump is himself so gullible as to fall for a Facebook hoax like that, believing it's real when it clearly is not. That hoax has led to bomb threats in Springfield, Ohio, forcing school officials there to close schools the last two days.

Brian Tyler Cohen recaps what has happened on MSNBC's YouTube channel:

That ain't all.

We mentioned before that Trump had Loopy Laura Loomer with him at the debate, and at a Ground Zero memorial in New York on Wednesday, instead of wife Melania. While the former first lady hasn't been heard from, Empty-G (Marjorie Taylor Greene) lashed out at Loomer for pushing the hoax and other nuttier conspiracies, ideas so out there, they're too extreme for the peach brained misrepresentative from Georgia. Jealous much, Empty-G?

Trump and some, but not all, of his allies are still clinging to the notion he "won" the debate. Only in your mind, dude. Trump described Loomer as a "free spirit". Oh, please, give me a break. She's like Trump, an election loser whose brain is permanently damaged. You know what they say about birds of a feather.

Trump has also said he doesn't want another debate with Harris, but made the mistake of using a boxing analogy, not realizing he was describing himself in a classic case of deflection and denial. He's also said he'd only do another if a friendly (to him) moderator like Fox No News' Spam Hannity were in charge. That ain't happening.

The GOP had a chance to force Trump off the ticket, but, instead, went all in with him again at the convention in July. This will cost them. "Bigly".
