I went on a backpacking trip last monday and returned to the land of internet on Wednesday to find literally dozens of headlines about insane comments that Trump had dropped in the previous two days. And the hits kept on coming.
I heard one commentary on Friday saying that if Trump had shut his phone off for the week, there would be nothing but talk about Hilary's latest problems. Instead Trump made sure that all attention was on him and he did his campaign no favors...
But it's been two full days without an insane comment from Trump. Seems to me that SOMEONE broke through to him and made him realize that if he had only shut the hell up, he might just be in contention.
Can he keep himself muzzled? Is it already too late?

If he really has Narcissistic Personality Disorder (and I believe he does), it will be really hard for him.

He took some time off. He'll be back tomorrow.

Minus Trump, Trump campaign stays on message
The GOP nominee’s surrogates kept redirecting the conversation to preferred territory Sunday...
It was, in short, what many Republican strategists have called on Trump to do: keep the focus off his controversies and on Clinton. Trump will have the opportunity to stay on that subject matter this week, when he goes to Detroit tomorrow to deliver a speech about his plans for the U.S. economy. The nominee is expected to outline broad tax cuts, and he has floated the idea of large-scale bond-financed infrastructure investments.
The actual contents of his speech, however, are likely to keep listeners in suspense.
Thus far in the general election, Trump has eschewed message discipline in favor of a freewheeling approach that often leads him into reopening past spats, whether with members of the media, with fellow Republicans or with just about anyone else who has criticized him publicly.
Trump’s lone public contribution Sunday morning was a tweet attacking Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake...
"I see where Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake of Baltimore is pushing Crooked hard. Look at the job she has done in Baltimore. She is a joke!” Trump wrote.

The pressure must be building. I predict a blowout of epic proportions.
Unless there is medication involved.

Just checked his Twitter feed and it appears they are letting him post once every hour or two. :emoticon-animal-004:

Anyone think that many of Dumbf's followers probably aren't Twitter users?

Many of his followers are bots.
But no, I would disagree with the idea that his followers don't use Twitter. It's a great place to be if you are a racist idiot looking for validation because it's swarming with extremists from all sides.
