Axelrod is right on one aspect--that pride he is talking about is arrogance, due to a successful combination of cheating, lawfare, and gaslighting. Sort of how teenagers think they're indestructible.
But too much bubble can result in a moment like Ceaucescu must have experienced in 1989.
imo if another than bye dung is nominated and the Rats win they will continue “ cheating, lawfare and gaslighting”.
its tiresome now with all the clearly placed lies and bye dung has the arrogance to say them. he must imagine himself nit only a “ good president” but a “noble old man statesman”-god forbid) of which he is neither.
