As Obama Endorses Harris, Trump Struggles For New Attack Strategy
It took a while, but the Obamas got around to endorsing Kamala Harris.
The five-day delay wasn't an expression of consternation about Harris's candidacy. It was likely just Barack Obama wanting to avoid the impression that he was personally crowning Harris rather than simply supporting the candidate Democrats collectively decided to run.
JD Vance this week accused Democrats of conspiring against Joe Biden, an effort he said was spearheaded by Obama, George Soros and an unnamed cabal of "elites
I’ve been very pleasantly surprised at how well Kamala has projected enthusiasm and positivity. She’s certainly provided a jolt when it comes to younger and more diverse voters. I do worry that there will be a tradeoff of some older rust belt voters, but putting a solid midwestern governor or Mark Kelly on the ticket should help minimize that impact.
It’s going to be close, but I think she can get it done. Momentum is on her side and she has one more big move she can make with her VP pick to keep it going. To your point, it’s now Trump who has to pick a lane and decide how much he wants to risk alienating voter groups that had started to shift in his direction. If Trump wants to make things about the border, my rejoinder would be to constantly remind people that Trump scuttled a bipartisan deal for political points and was putting people in cages when he was president.
When push comes to shove in November, I’m hoping the women of this country save us from ourselves.
She’s in the honeymoon period, kinda like Repubs were for a few days around the end of the RNC convention. Trump is incapable of changing his campaign. It will be the same rambling rhetoric in his rallies.
As I said to a Trumper friend of mine, “I’m not that excited for Joe either, but when the alternative is daily chaos, and making 1825 great again, I’ll go with Joe.”
Doofy Donald did what he always does, have things go sideways for everyone that was counting on him. He talks a big game and delivers very little. A modern snake oil salesman, if there ever was one.
The excuse for pulling out of debating Kamala is weak sauce too. All talk, Doofy Donald.
This probably isn’t a straight line to the finish for Kamala- but between her opportunities to pick a good/complementary VP and the August convention (to further distance her lead over Trump), combined with Trump’s unmatched ability to self-implode- this should be a “done deal”.
