He's trying to meme himself back into relevancy.

I'll allow it!

With the vast menagerie of weirdos over the last 8 years, I had completely forgotten a Milo existed.  I take it it's this Milo (from Wikipedia).

Milo Yiannopoulos (/jəˈnɒpələs/;[9]  Hanrahan; born 18 October 1984)[1][10][11] is a British far-right political commentator. His speeches and writings criticise Islam, feminism, social justice, and political correctness.[12][13][14] Yiannopoulos is a former editor of Breitbart News, an American far-right news and opinion website.[15]

Yiannopoulos worked for Breitbart from 2014 to 2017. During this time, he rose to prominence as a significant voice in the Gamergate controversy. In July 2016, he was banned from Twitter for online harassment of actress Leslie Jones.[16][17] He was permanently banned from Facebook in 2019.[18][19] According to emails by Yiannopoulos leaked by BuzzFeed News in late 2017, Yiannopoulos solicited white nationalists, such as American Renaissance editor Devin Saucier, for story ideas and editing suggestions during his tenure at Breitbart.[15]

Yiannopoulos has been accused of advocating paedophilia after the emergence of several video clips in which he said that sexual relationships between 13-year-old boys and adults can be "perfectly consensual" and positive experiences for such boys.[20][21] Following the release of the video clips, Yiannopoulos resigned his position at Breitbart,[22] his invitation to speak before the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) was rescinded, and a contract to publish his autobiography with Simon & Schuster was cancelled. Yiannopoulos has said that he is not a supporter of paedophilic relationships and that his statements were attempts to cope with his own victimhood, as an object of child sexual abuse by unidentified men.[23]

In 2022, Yiannopoulos served as an intern for United States Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene,[24] then worked with white nationalist Nick Fuentes and rapper Kanye West on the latter's short-lived 2024 U.S. presidential election campaign.[25] In April 2024, Yiannopoulos was listed as Chief of Staff at Yeezy Apparel, but stepped down on May 15 due to West's announcement of an adult entertainment division at the company.[26][27]

Bringing the war into the open.

I said this in the Loomer thread, but Trump should be campaigning hard in the battleground states, and trying to help down-ballot races, but instead he's hitched his wagon to a town of 58,000 people and is pushing some racist shit that was made up about said town, and it's drawing the racists out of the woodwork. And because he's Trump and is never wrong, and won't let it go, he's going to keep on fucking that chicken, at least for the next few weeks.

And we are already seeing Republicans on national TV trying ever so hard to dodge or ignore reporters' questions about Trump's comments.

If Soros spent money to get Loomer close to Trump, it was money well spent.

ABC - Harris 52-46 (+6)

Selzer has Trump 47-44 in Iowa. She’s the gold standard of polling

A Democrat being essentially even in a poll about the economy shows just how poorly Trump is coming off these days. Trusting Republicans more with the economy is just reflexive for tens of millions of people, data be damned (obligatory: propaganda fucking works). Trump is down to one traditional conservative tentpole issue: immigration. And he's going around amplifying some truly racist shit. Just an awful campaign in every way.

On the economy question:

For debate watchers, she leads 48-42 on the issue 

Among those who didn’t watch, he leads 41-35 on the issue

Part of me thinks he does this outlandish shit because he can turn on the tv and get off on the fact that people are talking about him.  If he wasn’t doing any of this he’d be irrelevant and no one would talk about him.

I think it’ll be the same as 2020 or even more of a defeat of Trump than 2020, because there are not a shitload of people who voted against Trump  or for Biden in 2020 seeing Trump over the past few weeks suddenly saying “oh, why’d I vote for Biden in 2020 when I can have this instead?”

Trump hit his ceiling in 2020. The past few weeks have been bad for him.

Water is wet. Even if it's negative attention him being a lightning rod gets him off because he's a narcissist. Biggest thing they hate is being ignored.

It’s always been about him seeing his face or being on TV. His campaign had to run ads in west palm beach media market so he could see himself on TV
