Three weeks ago he stood before cheering thousands on a convention stage, a white five by two and half inch bandage over his quarter inch flesh wound.
For them and us he had taken a bullet…or something. Languishing polls now turned in his favor. He was a hero, and nothing it seemed would stand in the way past a fading 81 year old to a renewed four years in the WH, and maybe longer, who knows.
What a week can do. Gone is the campaign against the fading 81 year old. Against him has come a dynamo already capturing the momentum as she rises in the polls. Attached to him is a vice presidential nominee whose “contributions” to his campaign have been insults to entire segments of the electorate - one a whole region of the country, the other a sizable category of women.
How fast it has all turned to shit.
