I had to pick the computer up and tilt it to see if it was me. But no, there is a lighting effect here that makes it look as if Donald Trump is wearing dark glasses. Or, like a fly. In fact, like The Fly, as in the 50’s sci fi movie of that name. You really have to look hard and then you’ll see that the top of his face is in shadow from his black hat. You cannot see his eyes. And why is he wearing a hat at all? My guess is that he’s having a bad hair day and there’s only so much that a hairdresser and makeup artist can do. And I would not want to be Trump’s designated coiffeur magician, let’s just say that much. No, this, whatever it is, is deliberate. Whatever is wrong with his eyes is beyond Visine, I think that’s safe to say.

He was in bad shape during the earlier rally but at least you could see his eyes. I want to see what condition he’s in tomorrow. He’s got four rallies tomorrow, including one that starts at 10:30 p.m. I can’t see anybody showing up at a political rally in literally the last hours of the day before election day. We’ll see what happens.

He sounds hoarse and bored by his own material. This is not how a candidate sounds on the penultimate night of campaigning. The last week of a campaign is when you leave it all on the field. It is not a time when you resort to hats, shade, warm up acts and videos, all of which Trump has employed here tonight.

I’m telling you, this special effect reminds me of the movie The Fly. Just pull back and look at him. Doesn’t he look like a fly with a black hat? Or maybe I’m just finally starting to flip out after eight years of writing about this lunatic, each year becoming stranger than the last. That said, I was emphatically NOT expecting Trump to start pulling special effects numbers at his rallies, but look at where we are.

This is getting too weird. Trump showing up in black, with the Undertaker’s Theme playing, and looking like a character out of a 50’s sci fi movie. Man, I don’t know about you, but if he starts wolfing down candy bars, run. Run for the exits. Run for your life.
We return control of your computer to you until tomorrow, 10:00 a.m. ET, when whatever is left of Trump is supposed to show up in Raleigh, North Carolina. Then on to Reading, then on to Pittsburgh, then on to Grand Rapids for his late night swan song.
the black and gold hat is a callout to the Proud Boys, those are their colors. he may be hiding his eyes so we can’t see that they’re closed.
Hiding his eyes under a hat is a bit too weird. I’ve never seen anybody do that when running for office. I’ve never seen anybody do that when not running for office.
I think the shades are borrowed from Biden. Trump.likely thinks they make him look presidential. I think he’s taken up.booze and grass.
Maybe Trump should make a stop in Nuremberg so he can spell bond 750,000 cult members like his great hero Adolf.
It’s tough to make people care about 16 year old girls getting sliced up when they’re actually dying because they’re pregnant and cannot get doctors to actually do their jobs for fear of ending up in prison for decades. Nonexistent knife jobs are nothing in comparison.
