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.

Just takes the attention away from her good speech and negative attention to Trump.

Any media outlet that prioritizes Biden’s comment over her speech, or other more important happenings, was going to find something to distract their audience with.

Joe saying he meant the rhetoric was garbage - he got a little tongue-tied. So Joe recognizes it and cleans it up, meanwhile Trump hasn’t apologized at all, only disavowed any responsibility for anything that happened at his own freaking rally.

Watching MAGA accounts on Twitter act like this is a HUGE scandal is hilarious. Their guy says so much worse every time he opens his filthy mouth. They are desperate. Truly.

I’m so tired of the behavior of these people I just can’t muster a give-a-**** over any outrage about what Joe said.

We’ve suffered their boorish ignorance to a point our country is at the brink. Flipping the “garbage” label on them is too kind.

Haley acting like she can give Trump advice, like he will listen to anything she has to say, is just so pathetic. Haley has zero clue that she’s completely irrelevant. She’s a ghost and doesn’t even know it. Had she joined up with Harris like Liz Cheney, she could at least be on the right side of history instead of a pariah to both parties.

All I am saying is it is terrible timing. It will distract and if you don’t think it will you have your head in the sand.
They were about to own the momentum this week but now Penning had a holding call on a first down pass so instead of it being first and 10 it’s 3rd down and 20. Not that it can’t blow over but it still makes things tougher.

 

[Incumbent]

I’m in agreement with this guy.

I know what to tell him. There’s a HUGE, GLARING difference between a roast, where the person being roasted is there and up for the gig, and has a chance to speak, and denigrating people for their identity, religion, race, etc. during a political rally.

Exactly this. To add, roast recipients are also people at the top of their profession or notable/notorious in some way. It's meant to take the piss out of people, take the wind out of their sails. Hinchcliffe is just a racist dickbag who found his perfect audience.

Rogan is the easiest interview out there, that's his format. He hardly challenges his guests, just lets them talk.

I agree, but still, Joe doesn't need to give them something else to potentially report on. It's basically not needed. They're in great shape to win the election. No need to get dirty when you don't have to.

When you've got a solid lead, play your game, not the opponent's.

It is, but win the election first. Say that all you want after the election is over. If you claim to have the high road, then act like it.

Precisely. Timing matters. I don't think it's going to change anything, but stranger things have happened.

 

[DaveXA]

I’m in agreement with this guy.

I mean, we here agree with that, but actions do matter to objectively undecided voters and some independents. No need to make unforced errors this close to the election.

Should I feel some type of way that the Harris campaign is hitting at Jill Stein this late in the ballgame?

Is that true with strong people who aren’t necessarily in his orbit? I admit I don’t listen (tried it and couldn’t take it years ago). My impression is that he wouldn’t treat her like he treated Trump and other guests - with deference. That he would be a little bit disrespectful. Does he have serious women guests, ever? Or just female comedians and other women willing to play the bimbo role? Does he ever interview people like her?

Apologies if I am judging him unfairly. Tried to listen, and just couldn’t take the vibe years ago.

I know how I feel about it. How do you feel about it?
