It's very possible to argue against the corruption of the alphabet agencies (the swamp) without bringing in anybody's children.

Fuckin blockheads 

I brought in Trump’s daughter and son-in-law because Trump brought them into the public arena with two high positions for which neither had any experience remotely similar.  He was talking about merit and “hard work” being the key to success; and “draining the swamp”.  I am curious how he reconciles those things.

I either missed this during that primary or I just don't remember it - but here is Kamala trying to get Elizabeth Warren to agree with her in getting not only Trump's account on Twitter banned, but the actual site. Elizabeth Warren wouldn't agree to that proposal and Kamala was left to laugh in derision. Skip to 5min30sec to see it:

Well to me it just exposes the fact that, not only is she sadistic (keeping evidence from court that would free an innocent man from death row), but dangerously censorious. 

And it's not just her, other Dems in Twitter thanking Brazil for banning Twitter. 

The Twitter Files really exposed just how anti First Amendment the Dems really are. But now they are just so open about it. It's very unsettling.

Kamala finally put up an issues page on her campaign site.

https://kamalaharris.com/issues/

She has Project2025 listed four times. I wonder who thought that it was a good idea, visually, to intersperse that throughout HER policy proposals?! 

OMG hahaha

If Trump doesn't go off script tomorrow, which I know is hard for him, and attacks her solely on the economy/inflation and immigration, especially after the recent developments in Colorado (apartment building) and Springfield, Ohio, he should distance himself from her in these polls. Big "if" that he won't go off script on some tirade.

Ehhh, I'm not so sure.  First off, it's hard to pull off a decisive win unless you flail around like Dementia Joe, because both sides media will be in full spin mode.

Second, if people don't know who they're voting for or don't know enough about Kamala...are those really people you expect to tune into a debate?

My guess is the 5% or whatever undecideds are out there are going to wait until the last minute and vote for who they think will win.  Wanting to vote for the person who wins, rather than who necessarily represents you best, is a real thing.

If I was Trump, I'd just be running non-stop ads of her past radical positions and flip flops and word salads.  She should be even easier to dispatch than Joe.  She's running an image campaign, and there's an awful lot out there on her that paints a rather bad image.  Just dispel the Hollywood makeover by showing people who she really is.

Not sure I agree with 2nd and 3rd paragraphs. I’m still undecided and waiting on her in this.

Voting for who is predicted to win seems odd. If it’s that important to your people you can just say you voted for them

I’m pretty sure what trump will say. 

1. If I lose you will have a gang leader from Venezuela for a landlord. 

2. You say good bye to Billy in the morning and he comes home from school with an operation. 

3. They want to kill babies after they are born. 

4. I will make tariffs and china will pay your taxes. 

Gut you can feel free to ignore this post. It’s a joke.

I haven't paid any attention to it. I did see a silent clip of a bunch of guys, about half with guns, going up a stairs and into an apartment.

Can you give a run down/what really happened?

The internet being stupid and rumors being accepted as fact and taking off like wild fire. At least the City of Springfield responded.

You know when you say it like that, it kinda sounds crazy....but yep. He said it. 

Good to see our potential VP can fall victim to a viral Facebook post. Does he not have staffers that can fact check this stuff?

Funnily enough, I just saw some black guy at a council meeting (?) bitching about immigrants grabbing ducks by the neck, killing and eating them.

So when I saw that clip of guys that I mentioned earlier, what was that about? Was it a gang or not? If it was a gang, was it illegal immigrants, asylees or homegrown?

It doesn't matter because the city has said the entire issue are rumors run wild and false.

I mean, that city can say that and you might believe it or not. But now I'm interested where I wasn't before. 

What is that video showing?

Quick Google search on local news sources you can find more. I'll take word of the Chief of Police on this bullshit over some video where someone doesn't have any proof.

I've heard from both the mayor and the city manager of Springfield.  Bottom line, you cannot drop 20,000 illegal aliens into a town of 50,000 and not have massive repercussions, mostly negative.  Why did it occur, who planned it, and will they be held accountable?


Now, carry on with the gaslighting.

Speaking of gaslighting, you.

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/vance-magnifies-false-claims-haitian-immigrants-eating-pets/story?id=113534220

City says they aren't illegal aliens, like you did. And both this and a different article I read had Dave Yost saying the problem was that so many appeared (due to picking Springfield for factors like more affordable housing and job opportunities) at once, which does need to be fixed.

And speaking of gaslighting, J.T. Vance and the agitators posing as right wing media, since the Springfield cops and the city manager both have pushed back against the "ThEy EaTs oUr PeTs" talk, saying no credible accounts of this happening have been reported.

If anything, if Kamala/her people were smart, they'd broadcast Trump's inane rally ramblings every chance they had with a "do you think this guy is remotely mentally competent enough for the job?" angle.
