General Election 2024 Harris vs Trump (16 Viewers)

Today it begins, Kamala has reached the point that she's the Democratic Party nominee:

There's video from today. this link has video from her first public appearance since Biden endorsed her:


She spent yesterday on the telephone for most of the day. I read that yesterday that she called the party leaders in all 50 states. That would take me three days.

She's renamed her YouTube channel, that's the where to go for video: https://www.youtube.com/@kamalaharris

This is her video on her channel from two hours ago:



To play it, start it, and then move it up to 5:47. This was one of those live videos which don't start at zero.

I've named this thread General Election 2024 Harris vs Trump

Trump needs an introduction post as well, a MAGA suporter ought to write it: @Farb, @SaintForLife , @Others, calling for someone to please introduce your GOP candidate for this 2024 general election thread.

Totally not a Felon Donald Trump versus Kamala DEI hire Harris.

Oh no, wouldn't do that, I want fairness first.

I found SaintForLife in another thread and asked him to come here and bring us fairness, or to ask Farb to deal with it.

Farb would probably be the better writer for it.

This is what I posted there:

Hey, there's a chance for you to speak from your heart, about the Donald. Duck.

Please go to the Harris vs Trump thead and write a nice thoughtful introduction for the Donald. Duck.

I'll later ask a moderator to merge my introductory post with yours, if you write one, together, so that every page our two merged posts lead each page. That would be fair.

If you don't want to do that, please build a fire under Farb to do it. Or someone else.

@DaveXA, could you deal with this fair thread introduction merge as I laid it out? Since the leading post shows up at the top of every page in the thread it would be fair for a thread like The General Election Thread, that both sides have that first post merged, thus that it introduces both sides. Fairly.

I want fairness first.

Oh my goodness, this is outstanding.

100% of Democratic Governors, 87% of Democratic Senators, 87% of Democratic Representatives, have publically made public statements in support of Harris.

This paragraph is nice:

"Mr. Obama adopted an identical stance four years ago when Mr. Biden’s aides pressured him to endorse early in the Democratic primaries before Senator Bernie Sanders dropped out. (Mr. Obama’s favored phrase back then was “I don’t want to thumb the scale.”) Endorsing too early now would also be a political mistake — fueling criticism that Ms. Harris’s nomination, should it come, was a coronation rather than the best possible consensus under rushed circumstances, they said."

Wise advice.




"Menendez has not commented." Please allow him to not comment, forever. Please.

This is so real:

Pole nombers.



That's "spelling," an old conservative form of humor.

Yep, you know the "border czar" stuff is coming hard. I'm sure SFL and Farb will be running that talking point very soon. Trump referring to himself as a "fine and brilliant young man" was pretty funny, TBH.

And I can't wait to see the amount of stupid hilarity to happen, LOL...

He had some other tweets before he tuckered out last night. What a glimpse into a truly disordered mind.

Both AP and Reuters have now declared that Kamala Harris has the support necessary to be our presidential nominee.

That was fast.

“I mean, the problem with JD Vance is he has no conviction, but I guess his running mate has 34.” -- Andy Beshear, Gov Kentucky

Unhinged and scared out of his forking mind! People are not only voting for this garbage, but rallying behind it while wearing a gauze pad earring!

I screenshot this one myself, because I saw it on X, screenshot and posted, but didn't believe it was real!

It's really suprising they seem to have no plan for Harris. Trump is still blasting about Joe Biden.

It’s not only the GOP that doesn’t seem to have a clue. This is what happens when you just have to write something…

They can’t use the usual insults.

MSNBC: Jaime Harrison - “by August 1st, we will start the voting process - we will have all of this wrapped up by August 7th.” Other nominees have until then to enter the race.

Oh they have plenty of insults for Harris. However, you won't see them outside of the internet. Even Trump isn't dumb enough to post them on his X feed.
