Harris mentions it's not just "us vs. Trump" but a tale of 2 visions for the future.  For those who whine about how the Dems won't run for something.

They're going to ramp up disenfranchisement, culling voting polls and closing polling stations.  

Oh, and 100% this.  It was always going to be a play for them, but their polling lead bumped it down in priority.  Now, ESPECIALLY because they are facing a minority candidate, they are going to do everything they can to shut down/fuck with/have intimidation campaigns at every high-minority polling place in a swing state that they can find.  You'll 100% see MAGAs with ARs as close as they can be to numerous such polling places (particularly in gun-heavy states, like AZ).

Oh, and when we're looking at voting groups who make a difference, don't sleep on native americans in AZ.  They absolutely helped save our ass in 2020.

Quote

Voters in precincts on the Navajo and Hopi reservations in northeastern Arizona cast nearly 60,000 ballots in the Nov. 3 election, compared with just under 42,500 in 2016, according to an Associated Press analysis of election data. Biden won Arizona by about 10,500 votes, according to unofficial results.

Turnout in two of the larger precincts on the reservations, for example, rose by 12% and 13% — and Biden won there handily — compared with a 4% increase among all Arizona voters.

Twice as many voters cast ballots in 2020 than in 2016 on the much smaller Havasupai reservation deep in a gorge off the Grand Canyon, overwhelmingly in support of Biden. More people from the Hualapai reservation also voted this year, with Biden outpacing Trump by a nearly 5-1 ratio.

Native Americans in AZ voted for Biden at a 60% to 90% rate, depending on precinct.  Bottom line, something like 40k-50k for Biden, 10k to 20k for Trump.  In other words, the entire 10,500 vote margin and then some in AZ can be attributed to the native vote.  Which we damned well knew when we were driving through the Navajo Nation in December of 2020, when they were still being devastated by COVID.  Making our end-of-year donations, and the Navajo health system got a chunk of cash from familia Brisket.

Again and again, groups that should be embittered and resentful of our country show up to save it.  Maybe we should be more fucking grateful.

1,315 for Harris out of the 1,976 needed to secure the nomination.

CA and NY delegations are meeting tonight.  CA has 424 and 268 for NY.  Can put her over the top tonight.

Only my darkest self can probably imagine how bad Jan 6 2025 will be if Harris wins.  It's gonna be a bloodbath, and not just at the Capitol.

I'm pumped about Harris in the race. She can run on Biden's 3+ year record, her prosecution record and she doesn't have Biden's age baggage. As much as I understand that not everyone is thriving since 2021, I think the majority of Americans can say they're better off today than they were in Jan 2021 under Trump. They might lie about it, but they're better off today.

I have a pretty strong feeling Trump's end will be violent, one way or the other.  I am not advocating that by any means, it's just the path he's chosen.  The people who consider Trump a useful idiot today will find him more useful as a martyr tomorrow if it becomes clear he won't ever be President again.

I think you're going to find the media is about to sing a completely different tune on how the economy is doing and Biden's record actually being pretty damn productive.

One of the coolest things now is that, presuming he’s fully through the grief cycle, Biden can just cook and do his thing the rest of his term.   Govern, push shit through Congress as best he can and speak to the people without downside.  He is going to be an asset.  Then on Jan 20 he can pardon Hunter.

I love that Vance probably thought he was a piece of misswallowed Big Mac away from POTUS a few days ago. Now he's looking like a dumbass on the campaign trail and is a failed election away from hopefully dashing any hopes of sniffing the oval office in any capacity.

If Trump loses the election it will probably be the end of Vance’s political career. He had no experience and came out of nowhere to obtain a position solely by sucking up to Trump more than the competition. And it was stiff competition. He joined the senate race late when both of his competitors were already running ads claiming to be more Trumpy than the other.

Look guys and gals. Let's stop living in fear. Now is the time to rally the troops and let's kick the Nazis to the curb. They can try whatever they like. They are not in charge of most of the swing states. Their previous challenges were all struck down at all levels of the courts. They don't have ownership of the military. If Kamala wins, there will be no Jan 6. We're ready for them this time. Stop living in fear. Sack the fuck up and let's go.

Yes, but he swallowed more gallons of jizz than Rod Stewart was rumored to back in the 70s (y'all remember that)?  That has to count for something.

You think Bill Clinton hasn’t had negative things to say about Trump? Think again.

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/08/18/bill-clinton-2020-dnc-speech-398182

Both Clintons, Biden, Harris, Romney, and McCain have been outspoken in their criticism of Trump. Dubya hasn’t said anything. You can excuse it as “decorum.” One might call him a wuss. Dick Cheney has been outspoken; George should probably say something. But he’s kind of a dunce and really wasn’t qualified to be president himself so maybe saying anything would only invite criticism of his own legacy. Plus he’s probably a little bit grateful that Trump makes his disaster of a presidency look better by comparison.

its clear your hatred for 43 has warped your ability to read. I said former Presidents, as a general rule dont publicly talk bad about other former and current Presidents.

I said nothing about presidential candidates, former candidates and former VPs bad mouthing the Orange Man.   You name, 1 former Pres,  3 former failed presidential nominees, a former 'pub VP, the current President and the Current VP.     All of whom are influential... but other than Bill, they arent a former Pres. 

#1, obviously Biden is talking shit about him because up until until 2 fucking days ago, he was the guy he was campaigning against (for the last 6 years).   Same goes for Harris as she was on the campaign against him and now the presumptive nominee. 

#2 Pres Clinton, as far as I can find, last spoke about how much of an idiot Trump was/is during the Dem National Convention in 2020- which you linked to in your post.... WHERE THE FUCK IS ANYTHING SINCE? 

 I will absolutely grant you the point that Clinton stood up and called him a threat to democracy.... in 2020.  i.e. 4 years ago.

But other than a few articles mentioning he was helping fundraise for Biden, hes been suspiciously quiet. 

oh yeah, and in the matter currently in discussion so have Obama, Bush, and even Carter... who of all people with ZERO fucks to give, should have absolutely blasted Trump and his stances and policies by now....

 

The point I made, that is very fucking valid, is the only people who know what the job entails, and know what a pain in the fucking ass a former member of the club can be if they are chirping ......are keeping quiet.  Its because its basically an unwritten rule.  Orange Man is the only one who can still run for President of the 5.

 

Frankly I feel it would be hyper powerful if all 4 of the rest of them met  in 1 meeting and all 4 of them ageed to tell us how much of a lunatic and danger to the country the Orange Man is. 

But 3 of the 4 havent said shit, and the 4th hasnt said shit in 4 years.

Correct. Say everything about him using facts and his own statements. He has given you everything you would ever need to beat him. You just have to be able to lay it out for people and I firmly believe she can do that in a way Biden could no longer. That's why I was advocating for her the entire time. 

I have no way to gauge how Vance is doing. His audience is the dumbest people to ever live. Seems to me he’s playing the role right, some racism, some sexism, stupidest joke imaginable, a little dei and woke madness, speaks directly to magastan. Not sure what else they want from him?

Small quibble....I hope there IS a Jan 6 II, Insurrection Boogaloo.  Because yeah....this time, we're ready.  Hide the machine gun emplacements.  Wait until the treasonous combatants walk into your interlocking fields of fire.  Then.....finish them.  Send a final, definitive message about how America deals with violent traitors actively attacking the country.  Be done with it.

Again, he’s a republican in 2024, up against a brown woman. He’s saying exactly what gets them hard, including women on the right, and “undecideds” who have always apparently been okay with this rhetoric because it’s been going on for almost a decade and they still can’t decide if it’s bad to be racist/sexist. I think he’d lose support if he didn’t say despicable things about women and minorities.

Have you heard her speak? She has no future in politics and thanks to the billions Jared was paid by the Saudis (for unspecified shady services rendered), she has no need.

The cult falls apart without Trump. No one else has the sway he seems to. It will be a bunch of even more pathetic alternatives all trying to emulate him like Vance is failing at doing right now. It will be more like Reagan and everyone will be talking about the Ghost of Trump and how we need to have someone who can be like Trump.
