    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.

    For Barack Obama there was “birtherism” and a name they said sounded like a specific Middle East terrorist.

    For Hillary Clinton there was “Lock her up” and merchandise that said, “Trump that birch”, “Hillary sucks but not like Monica” and “Life’s a birch: don’t vote for one.”

    Rightwing playbooks deployed in past election campaigns are being dusted off for an all-out assault against Vice-President Kamala Harris, the de facto Democratic nominee aiming to become the first Black woman and first person of south Asian descent to be US president.

    “It’s obvious that the Republicans are going to play the race and gender card, which we’ve seen already in some of the attacks on social media,” said Tara Setmayer, a Black woman who is co-founder and chief executive of the Seneca Project, a women-led super political action committee.

    “It may be catnip for their Maga base but it will be a turnoff for the moderate voters in the battleground states that will determine this election.”…..

    This week, the spectre of birtherism has returned. Tom Fitton, president of the rightwing activist group Judicial Watch, asked his 2.6 million followers on the X social media platform: “Is Kamala Harris eligible to be president under the US Constitution’s ‘Citizenship Clause?’” He was far from alone in pushing such arguments…….

    Blatant misogyny and racism could alienate the very swing state voters that Trump needs for victory. But even if he is advised to tone down such rhetoric, an entire army of influencers and pundits are ready to flood the zone on his behalf.

    Joe Walsh, a former Republican congressman and Tea Party activist turned Trump critic, said: “Trump himself is going to have a hard time running against her because he doesn’t know how to deal with someone like her. But Trump’s cheerleaders in the media know exactly what to do and they’ll go down this ugly, sexist, racist road.

    “They’ll make up stuff about how Kamala Harris rose in her career. Their key to winning – and I know this because I used to do some of this – is to get as ugly and bigoted as they can to implicitly and explicitly get people pissed off about who she is.”………

    Yes, the arguments against Harris so far have been all over the map.

    She put thousands of black men in prison for simple marijuana possession and used them as slave labor. (She did not)
    She is a complete lefty socialist who wants completely open borders (She is not and does not)
    She is descended from slave holders (lots of black people are - think about why)
    She’s not really black (yes, attack her on her identity - great idea)
    She had an affair with a married man (allegedly, and nobody who supports Trump can say a word)
    She is a “DEI” hire (She’s been elected multiple times)
    She laughs too much, and her laugh is unpleasant (yes, this is important)
    She wants to ban cows, plastic straws, etc (eyeroll emoji)
    She has no children (great idea-please keep attacking her on this point)
    She is stupid and lazy (great idea - please keep showing your racist arses)

    And before I finish typing this - SFL shows up to confirm it, lol.

    Biden's actions are Medal of Freedom and build monuments worthy. To willing give up the most powerful office when no one could force him to on the heels of Trump's Jan 6th coup attempt is the stuff of greatness.

    They did force him out. He kept saying there was no way he was getting out. It's not the stuff of greatness. It was the elites like Pelosi that forced him out. The NY Post reported that Pelosi threatened to remove him from office with the 25 ammendment if he didn't drop out. Whatever it was that forced him out, he didn't want drop out.
     
    As i said long ago, give Trump et al enough rope, they will work hard to hang themselves:

    this is only the beginning folks- we have 3 more months of Trump/Vance continuing to alienate the votes they NEED to make a run at White House. Unless they do a complete 180 in the next 45-60 days ( which aint gonna happen ), November 2024 will be the election year of the women/youth who have simply had enough of the rhetoric.

    the NY POST reported it so its GOTTA BE TRUE, right? Main stream media works for you when it needs to eh?

    You are all over the place as of late...not unlike the Trump campaign.
     
    Closer than it was:
    Former President Trump is narrowly leading Vice President Kamala Harris, the likely Democratic presidential nominee, in several battleground states, while the two are tied in Wisconsin, according to a new set of polls.

    The survey released by Emerson College Polling and The Hill on Thursday found Trump leading Harris by 5 points in Arizona, at 49 percent to 44 percent; by 2 points in Georgia, at 48 percent to 46 percent; by 1 point in Michigan, at 46 percent to 45 percent; by 2 points in Pennsylvania, at 48 percent to 46 percent; and tied with her at 47 percent each in Wisconsin.

    In every state except Arizona, the polling falls within the survey’s margin of error, meaning Trump and Harris are essentially tied in most battleground state matchups.

    Harris notably outpaces President Biden in polling of each of the battleground states since a similar survey was released earlier this month, outperforming the president by 5 points in Georgia, 4 points in Arizona and Wisconsin and 3 points in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

    The media narrative is in full force to make it seem like a great gesture that Biden stepped down. It wasn't and he was forced out against his wishes.

    Wow. Jennifer Aniston? She is so impactful in politics that I'm not not going to support Vance or Trump anymore. If Anniston says something we better listen.
     
    I agree and it was so transparent what they were doing as if nobody would notice how many times
    the media had previously reported that she was the border czar, in charge of the border, the point person on the border, etc



    It doesn’t surprise me they cover for her, but to do it with such blatant coordination seems sloppy, it’s as if they don’t even want to compete with each other anymore. Might as well consolidate and become official state run media. This entire thread sums up why X is so popular.

    This video shows it very clearly

    No one seems to care about this except for people who would never vote for Harris anyway.

    I understand why a Harris supporter wouldn't care about it. The media is actively trying to help rebrand her.

    LOL Trump supporter talking about "rebranding"

    You have absolutely no idea who your candidate is....just that he is a Republican makes it all ok.

    again, your hypocrisy knows no boundaries.
     
    Adressing Anti-trust issues was one thing Biden did well especially with the Commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission Lina Khan. It looks that is shifting with Harris and Vance.




    Wall Street grew so frustrated with US President Joe Biden’s antitrust policies over the past three and a half years that many long-standing Democratic dealmakers considered switching their support to Donald Trump in the 2024 elections or even boycotting the ballot altogether.

    But two events have dramatically changed that stance in the past fortnight: Trump named JD Vance as his running mate and Biden dropped his re-election bid, endorsing his vice-president Kamala Harris for the Democratic nomination.

    Mergers and acquisitions practitioners are now reconsidering their electoral strategies. They consider Harris to be potentially more moderate than Vance, who is seen as an economic populist who could double down on the antitrust policies initiated by Biden’s trustbusters.

    I think that's a great sign.

    Donald Trump ditched his short-lived call for unity and declared he was “not going to be nice” at his first campaign rally since Joe Bidendropped out of the presidential race.

    The former president turned his attacks to Kamala Harris, his new presumptive rival come November, following her endorsement by Biden – who he claimed to have “defeated.”……
