Donald Trump melted down in Las Vegas as he alternated between screaming rage and incoherence as Kamala Harris increases her polling lead.
Trump claimed that according to one right wing poll he is up by six points:

leaving the race:

Trump claimed that his pollsters are cheating him and making up numbers:
This must be what a nervous breakdown looks like as Trump claims his own pollsters are making up numbers and cheating him, ” I just saved $200,000 with these phony pollsters. They don’t even go out intact, they just give you a number.” pic.twitter.com/Db7yBVmvsw

The nation is witnessing the ex-president trying to change the reality that he is losing the election through lies and fantasies. Instead of accepting the fact that he is losing, Donald Trump has mentally retreated to a place where he is actually winning the election and everything is fine.
Trump’s frantic behavior and increasing paranoia tell a much different story than the words that were coming out of his mouth.
At some level, Donald Trump knows that he is losing this election. Trump knows that he list the debate, and if Trump doesn’t go back to the White House, he could end up in jail.
Donald Trump is losing. He is running out of time. The latest polls show Kamala Harris leading by 4-5 points. He has not been able to stop her momentum. Trump is cracking up. The last time we saw Donald Trump this desperate, he incited an insurrection and tried to overthrow the government.
Trump is losing and it is causing him to melt down.
