    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.

    The one consistent motif of Donald Trump’s electoral career is that he never loses. He didn’t lose the Iowa caucuses in 2016, he claimed; Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) cheated. He didn’t lose the popular vote in 2016; illegal votes in California or New Hampshire or Virginia were to blame. He didn’t lose in 2020; there was rampant fraud and a broader anti-Trump fog that led to Joe Biden’s inauguration.

    Trump wants to be president, yes, but he wants people to view him as victorious and popular perhaps just as much. This year, a lot of his rhetoric about voting hinges on this idea, that he is the true choice of the people and deeply popular — and, therefore, that any loss would necessarily be a function not of vote-counting but vote manipulation.

    He said as much at a rally in North Carolina this month.

    “Our primary focus is not to get out the vote,” he said. “It’s to make sure they don’t cheat, because we have all the votes you need.”

    Trump is destined for success, unless the Democrats “cheat.” And in an interview with television’s Dr. Phil that aired on Tuesday, Trump added another validator to that point: God wants him to win.

    Speaking to Trump at the former president’s Las Vegas hotel, Phil McGraw asked the former president to weigh in on last month’s assassination attempt. Had it inspired self-reflection, McGraw wondered, a reconsideration of “why am I here”?

    Before answering that question, Trump outlined the ways in which his survival was a function of chance. That, just as the bullet was fired, he turned toward a (misleading) graph on immigration being displayed on a large screen at the Butler, Pa., rally. That, because he turned when he did, the bullet clipped his ear instead of doing far worse damage.

    The odds of his having survived, he suggested, were minute.

    “You just can’t say ‘millions to one.’ Millions to one,” he said. “When I used to say a million to one, it’s much more than that.”

    Later, the reason for his amplifying the odds became clear.

    “How can you say it’s luck when it’s, you know, 20 million to one?” he asked rhetorically. There must therefore have been some other hand at work.

    “Is there a reason you think you were spared?” McGraw asked.

    “I mean, the only thing I can think is that God loves our country,” Trump replied. “And he thinks we’re going to bring our country back. He wants to bring it back.”

    “You believe God’s hand was in this that day?” McGraw asked a bit later in the discussion.

    “I believe so, yeah, I do,” Trump replied.

    “And you talk about the country; you believe you have more to do,” McGraw followed up. “You weren’t done. You were spared for a reason.”

    “Well,” Trump said, “God believes that.”...................

    Trump’s argument of electoral inevitability adds an ally: God

     


    So, stock prices on his stock is inversely related to his chances of winning the presidency according to betting markets??

    Using another conman's words, "concerning"
     
    Btw, for those that says trump has policies...and sfl posted that ridiculous whatever it was....this is trump laying out his economic policy.



    The details!!!! It'll be amazing I'll tell you. It's like you'll think it's magic. Rapidly. He ll do it rapidly.

    Adding to this economist' analysis comparing both.

    I have to believe those that arent fully enveloped in the propaganda, fully understand just how full of sheet he is, but they dont care because on other issues, they believe him.

    so of the 15 or so "cabinet" positions, only 3-5 have any real association with prices and even those have little ability to do ANYTHING to bring prices down.

    the other 10-12, yeah those executive directors over UN, Health and Human Services, Education etc - they will do something

    its ridiculous at this point. He just trolling

    Fercryinoutloud, there is no such thing as “markets functioning well.”
     
    On Trump using Arlington National Cemetery as a campaign prop, this thread is from a Democrat who also happens to be a combat veteran. It’s worth the read. Trump is a piece of shirt.

    “MAGA is trying to say the family authorized these photos and the campaign stunt so it’s okay. That’s false and a lie. There was an official photographer there from Arlington. The campaign wanted their guys. Arlington does that to make sure other families aren’t caught up against their wishes. That’s on top of it being a campaign staffer which is literally against Federal law. They were told that and then assaulted an Army official when she wouldn’t budge. Do you see that grave on the left? Major Navas. His family didn’t get to approve his grave being included in Trump’s stunt. You see that family visiting their loved one way in the back? They didn’t get to approve being included in this ridiculous smiling picture as they mourned. That’s why they have the rules and official photographers. Because this family doesn’t get to overrule the others and use their families for this campaign stunt. Not even for that forking loser and former failed President Trump.”



    “Yes. Trump is using Arlington for campaign purposes. Here is the TikTok they posted. This video is illegal. This is the Federal law this video violates: 32 CFR § 553.32(c) Memorial services and ceremonies at Army National Military Cemeteries will not include partisan political activities.

    This son of a birch used our most sacred resting place for an attack ad. Disgusting.”

    I removed the actual campaign TikTok. Fred makes the point that this was not an official ceremony, but one that parts of 2 families requested. Which is fine, and they can request Trump be there, that’s fine too. But Trump cannot legally make it a campaign event, which is exactly what he did.
     
    I’m just sick about this. Trump just broke an actual Federal law and he is currently out on bail. Where are the consequences for this man? It turns my stomach to see him flout the law and get away with it time after time.


    he broke a bunch of rules on dealing with his business after being found guilty too.
     
    North Carolina could be in play for Democrats this year after voting for Donald Trump in the 2020 election, a new report reveals.

    Trump won North Carolina by just over a point in 2020, his closest win out of any state that year. Now, the Tar Heel state is a toss-up and could go to Kamala Harris come November, according to a new report from the nonpartisan organization Cook Political Report.

    Trump held a solid lead in the Tar Heel state before Biden dropped out of the race, polling from earlier this summer revealed. The former president led Biden 45.6 percent to 38.7 percent in July.

    Trump and Harris are now tied at 45.7 percent, according to the report.

    This lead isn’t because Harris is taking Trump’s voters, according to analyst Amy Walter. Rather, it’s because Harris has improved her vote share, which means more people who lean Democrat are willing to vote for her.……

    I believe if Harris wins NC and Georgia we can call the election over with early.
     
    Scott Jennings on CNN is already moaning about that.
    Omg. Harris can't even do an interview by herself.
    🤣 🤣 🤣

    She's been hiding since the got the nomination through the 25 ammendment coup, hasn't done a single interview, and now she needs Walz there like he's her support animal.

    Harris didn't receive a single vote from actual voters, she still doesn't have her policy positions listed on her website, she's been hiding from reporters and interviews and she finally schedules one and she can't even do it by herself.

    This is comical but the media and Democrats will defend her no matter what.

    Sorry you’re so triggered by the current situation.
