5:08Now PlayingDonald Trump’s campaign entered “reset” mode just a week and a half ago, with his staffers and aides forcing him to get back out on the campaign trail. That lasted just one week before he stopped doing events so he could spend his entire week this week on the golf course – NOT CAMPAIGNING. Trump simply doesn’t have the stamina to run a campaign anymore, and his lack of energy is evident in the few events that he actually did last week. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

So last Monday was supposed to be the reset date of the Trump campaign, because it was starting last Monday that the campaign was like, all right, we just brought in Corey Lewandowski. We're gonna start doing more events. Donald Trump is getting off the bench and into the game. He is gonna be doing interviews, he is doing rallies, he's traveling the country. You just wait and see. It is a mad dash to the finish line folks. And it literally lasted five days because this week, and yeah, now we're into Thursday of this week. Donald Trump has held exactly zero events since last Friday, and he doesn't have another one on his agenda until Saturday, which means Donald Trump has now taken an entire week off from actually campaigning, even though his campaign is of course going down the tubes. And I can't reiterate this enough, but this came after the reset, right?
The reset involved bringing back in Corey Lewandowski and a couple of other old, you know, Trump advisors to kind of fix the campaign. He got the endorsement from Bobby Kennedy Jr. Everything's looking good. We're gonna do this. We're gonna switch things around. And then he just quits a week into it. And this man doesn't have the stamina to do a single event this week, which means in the last four weeks, he has officially taken two weeks off completely. No events, no nothing. Couple of prerecorded interviews dropping here and there, and of course, him having his nervous breakdowns on truth social. That's it. So where is Donald Trump playing golf? He's out there playing golf, relaxing, watching Fox News, and then of course getting mad at Fox News and then ranting about Fox News on truth social. That's what he's doing. That's how he thinks he's going to win the campaign. Now, the funniest part about this is I did a segment on Monday where Donald Trump had said, or, or, you know, talking about the campaign reset, I should say, they're gonna get out there, they're gonna be doing more. This guy's not gonna be on the couch, neither is JD Vance. He's gonna be active.
And they only made it five days. Five days before this elderly man said, wow, I'm done. That was a rough couple of days. Now, to be perfectly fair to him, he is elderly. He is 78 years old, but he does seem to have more stamina than most 78 year olds in this country. I'll give him that, but even still, he's not the same person he was in 2020. He sure as hell is not the same person he was back in 2016. In 2016, and during the last few days of the 2020 election cycle, there were days when
Donald Trump would sometimes do three rallies in a day in different states. He'd do a rally in the morning, hop on his plane, fly to a different state, do an afternoon rally, hop on the plane, fly to a yet another state, do an afternoon rally. Now the guy can't do three in a five day span without having to take a full week off. He's gotta hit the golf course, I'm tired, need to go swing the clubs a little bit. If he can't even handle the campaign part of this, how is he going to handle the stress that comes along with being president of the United States? You know, prior to Trump coming in office, because the stress, I don't think got to him because he didn't care about actually doing the job. You look at everybody that entered office and then look at what they looked like after they left office.
