So done with Drumpf-why would anyone want to go through all the drama (and potential danger) he represents? He’s also older than when Joe Biden ran in 2020, and he seems to be on a downward spiral of physical and mental decline (extremely visible in his recent press conference and Musk interview.)

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are smart, articulate, progressive and present a fresh, much needed change from Drumpf’s divisive politics. His “policies”only serve the super wealthy, the white nationalists and the extreme religious right. Harris’s and Walz’s sanity and stability are welcomed by energized American voters, who are so tired of the angry, complaining, boring show Drumpf offers.

We’re really “not going back!!!”

So true, Larry, and the only reason to vote for him now is the same reason folks voted for his ass the first time: he embodies ALL of their worst, most basic instincts - hating people of color, controlling women and their bodies, being terrified of queer folks, etc etc etc. None of that will go away completely with a Harris-Walz win, but it'll sure as hell cause some of these hate-mongers to crawl back under their rocks.

Exactly EJ; we are in need of hopefulness and positivity, so these hateful bigots need to crawl back under their rocks.

Immigration alone has not determined elections. Dems need to keep reminding people that (1) the GOP killed the recent border bill because DJT told them to and (2) Project 2025's immigration policies will be a disaster. Regarding the Musk debacle with Drumpf the other day, he sounded like some of my relatives when they don't have their dentures in. However, he's too vain not to have his teeth in while on camera, so I think that something else was going on for sure. Either way, this is not someone who is qualified to be president, nor deserves to be president, even though he thinks otherwise. The mainstream media continues to give him a pass and tries to gaslight us that he's a normal candidate, along with his enablers.

Sakina you’re so right. The Dems absolutely cannot pounding home all of the points you made along with pointing out The Orange Menace’s obvious cognitive impairment.

So true Sakina. We need to stay focused on Project 2025 in particular and not give republicons any suggestions about how to “right their sinking ship.” Just let the Drumpfsterfire keep talking his nonsense and let the campaign put out racist ads, like they’re doing. Let him keep talking about crowd size and “radical left wingers,” while Kamala and Tim talk about hope and positive change for ALL Americans.

The only ones he’s gaslighting are his cult. Drumpf is a whining has been and sane Americans want him to be gone from politics.

We're still 12 weeks until the election, and as we all know, anything can happen. Even with that acknowledgement, I am thoroughly enjoying where we are right now.

I think there's a saying that goes something like "when you're enemy is digging his own grave, don't try to stop him". But when it comes to Trump, I'd gladly provide him with a backhoe!!!

As much as each of us try to be the best person possible, we've all done some pretty shitty and regrettable things over the course of our lives; things that seemed "right" at the time. The passage of time, and the ability to self-reflect, helps us to see the errors of our past ways, and most of us try to do better going forward. One way or another, karma eventually bites all of us in the ass. If karma is about to take a large bite of Trump's very sizable ass, I say it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy!!

My opinion is that democrats are energized and ready, the GOP, once again, placed its bet on a loser!! The Trump win in 2016 was a fluke, people didn't know who he was and they didn't like Hillary, at least in the places where it mattered, she still won the popular vote, no thanks to Jamey Comey who should hide his head in shame and lost his job anyway ... but I digress!! In 2020, people were pissed and wanted him gone which is why Joe Biden won, because Trump was a mitigated disaster, especially with his handling of Covid. Now, in 2024, people are exhausted, it is the same ole same ole broken record. And Kamala is the newest and innovative and positive!! The democrats listened, the GOP didn't!! The polls indicated that people did not want to see a 2020 redux of these two candidates!! This is why democrats are energized and there are more of us then there are of them!! The real GOP sees the writing on the wall!!

All Donald Trump ever did was bring hate, lies and misery to our country. It’s time for smiles, optimism and hope again!!!

That racist ad is disgusting and inflammatory. The only people it would appeal to are white supremacists. This alone I hope causes Trump to lose more support. What a dumpster fire of a campaign, so fitting they chose the Celine Dion 'Titanic' song to open his Montana rally, his own team is working against him. GO KAMALA AND TIM!

The Charlotte news media covered his appearance in Asheville and from what I could tell and many people attending weren’t from NC. That being said, someone posted a pic on Facebook of the crowd waiting to enter the (very small) venue and someone parked a truck with a billboard sign with the face of Vance and The Orange Menace with the words weird and creepy. It was great! The pic is on the facebook page for the “double secret libtard snowflake party chat” group. It’s a private group so you have to join but it’s a pretty good group.

His handlers all want him to stay on message. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have a message, and he certainly lacks the discipline to stay on topic even if he did.

Attacking Harris in any way is racist- got it.

Plus it’s all he’s got. He can’t discuss policy, he has none. Unless you’d love to hear about the wonderful Project 2025 Hitler game plan. And lastly, he’s dumber than a bag of nickels so after his loss in November, he can enjoy his court cases. He’s earned them.

Ok, sure…so any criticism or political gambits against Harris are racist and sexist? How would any candidate oppose her?

Expand full comment
Paul Hiatt's avatar

There’s an idea! Of course, expressing policy in opposition to Harris is racist and sexist. She’s actually a perfect candidate for this moment- impervious to criticism, despite vague or non existent positions. This could backfire- forcing Trump to move beyond inane babble to something approaching a thought. If the Dems overplay the race/gender factor, they will become more of a parody of themselves than they already are.

I agree with the Republicans who say let Trump be Trump. Yeah, like somebody could stop him. Trump is still refining himself.
