[SamAndreas]

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.

You can bet your house the Capital will be much better protected than it was Jan 6 2021. There will probably be some SEALS and Delta force members close by making sure

Yup, I think they will have snipers set up on rooftops....at least I hope so.....

Every US voting citizen who is not a member of the cult should be absolutely outraged that the R party under Trump is trying to disqualify your vote.....if they resort to violence they deserve bullets.....

Male version of voting is private

I hope they don’t have to shoot anyone. If they do, I hope they use rubber bullets and other non-lethal means. Only if someone can’t be stopped with mon-lethal means should anyone be shot. I do think they may need some portable jails.

Aaaand this is what explaining tariffs to MAGA actually looks and sounds like

I hear you, I'm typically not a violence advocator......BUT in this case there should be no one approaching the Capital.....and I've lost any sympathy/empathy for anyone who chooses to disrupt our election proceedings.....

I wish someone would remind voters that the Supreme Court is on the ballot. Thomas will almost certainly be replaced with someone equally extreme with a Republican senate and president. He has to be anxious to retire to get out of the spotlight, and he may not last 4 more years. If he could be replaced with a moderate to left leaning Justice, we can return the Supreme Court to a place of honor. It’ll still be right leaning, but much more sane without Thomas. Without Alito, it would complete the return to normalcy. We can survive one extremist, but not 3.

Here is a screen shot of the latest NYT/Sienna polls. Shows momentum going to Harris. They are the same pollsters who said the red wave wasn’t happening in 2022.

Now trump is just gonna go with the full-on genetics argument! His argument is based on his uncle's accomplishments and not his father's dementia!

I'm not gonna even address the subtext of his closing argument.

Trump really is going to lose NC.

But Biden!!!!!!
Next breath...we cannot be told to be outrage!!!!! The economy, Korea, Israel, yada yada...I'm a hypocrit, so mind me when I tell you to be outrage.

 

[Nebaghead]

Trump really is going to lose NC.

Explains why he is going there every day till the election. Also he veered off script today and rambled on about fraud. I think their internal polling is saying the same thing.
Also they said Harris is leading early voting in swing states except AZ. Just need to dampen GOP turnout on Election Day.

I don't care if Harris wins Iowa. That poll has never missed. Her MoE is 3.4. That means the absolute best outcome for Trump is a 7 point swing to put him up +4. Trump wins Iowa +4 is a disaster. This is also inline with some other "odd" polls outside of swing states. Kansas only had Trump +5, Harris is up +12 in Omaha, Ohio had a +3 Trump poll.

I was happy to see the media push back. As everyone knows, this incident really bothered me.

There js a flicker of hope District 1 in Nebraska might go Harris. Lincoln is there and they are more progressive than Omaha.

So I'm at a loss on this. The CHIPs act has some protectionism/anti free trade components to it. Core maga populism, right? However it serves a few purposes. First, it minimizes a national security risk as we saw during covid when chips were scarce. We don't know if Taiwan can be defended, and we prevent China from advanced chips. Second, it creates manufacturing jobs now and in the future. Finally it ensures our competitiveness in advance tech in the future. ...So why do these maga want to destroy it?

Does maga make sense?

Because Biden passed it.
