Harris Vs Trump 2024 US Presidential election - read the warning in the OP posted 18/09/24

Did you not see that my post was somewhat tongue-in-cheek?

God knows, we deserve a little humour at DJT'd expense.

It's a terrible 'policy'. Who defines what overtime is? You would simply have people earning minimum wage during normal hours and suddenly 10x times for overtime.

Massively open to abuse and almost completely unmanageable.

And that is even before we get to the financial implications of it on the government. Has Trump given any details of the costs to the government of such a policy and where that money will come from?

I imagine Trump will be throwing all sorts of empty unworkable promises into the mix going forward.

Have Mexico paid for that wall yet?

Or will it just be Steve Bannon?

He has the concept of a plan!

That is another great line from the debate. Imagine a person running for such a senior position, one that he has been running for for 9 years, coming out with such a line. It's laughable.

He couldn't even think of something better to say. 'I have a concept of a plan'. 9 years after calling for the end of Obamacare, saying that he would sort it all out so quickly, this is all he has.

Can you imagine what MAGA social media attack propaganda would be doing if Harris had said something like that?

It is obviously just an excuse \ pretext. They want to vote for Trump, don't want to vote for Harris and are just looking for justifications of a decision made.

"I mean, she doesn't seem to be an absolute monstrous ghoul of a person, but I'm waiting to hear her position on mandatory bathroom breaks for minimum wage warehouse workers."

“Elections are decided on turnout - and it's looking bleak for Donnie on that metric.”

Oooh that sounds interesting? Any metrics or latest thinking to hand on that? We need some hope here 😀

Voter enthusiasm is at least 10% ahead among Democrats this cycle. Trump voters are tired and disheartened this cycle and Trumps rally turn outs are a testament to that.

The magic has gone. So if someone asks you who you would vote for - doesn't mean you will actually vote for them.

Except for 2020 when their turnout won it, and caused Trump to have his now 4-year tantrum because as he repeats getting 74m votes should have seen him walk the election.

On the new voter registrations, the numbers themselves mean nothing. 300k extra in NY or California is of no consequence. It's all about the swing states.

I suspect they just never imagined that Biden would have the altruism to pull out. That's just not something that would even cross a Trump supporter's mind IMO.

Obviously they weren't expecting him to do that badly either (I'd say even his own team didn't expect anything that bad or they would have found a way not to have him do it) but even if they had done, I really don't think they'd have actually not shown up in case Biden decided not to run.

Actually they believe and repeat any old bullshít in relation to but not exclusively to, Ukraine, Russia, any right wing party (though some actually go as far as to claim they don't exist), any left wing party (all commies socialist etc), abortion after birth, immigration, Jews etc, as long as someone has the ability to speak fúcktard or can put it into a meme and deliver it to them.

Good take from Anthony Scaramucci again this week. Harris will need to follow up her strong debate performance with a lot more media engagement in order to press the advantage. Don't give it up to Trump to go around crowing about how it was really he who won.

...

.....

Not sure about this point by Scaramucci.

If he looks like losing, he can:-

A) Not contest the election, which will mean that the pending trials against him will almost certainly proceed at some point, and which consist of very serious charges concerning electoral fraud and compromising national security. If you put these together with the hush money case, it's hard to see him avoiding a penalty which would be intolerable to him.

or

B) Contest the election and possibly avoid this fate. If he's already in the crosshairs for the above charges, what would he actually have to lose by going for broke and maybe getting one more, or avoiding all pending charges completely? In for a penny, in for a pound, as they say.

But consider also that Trump has started to fold the rigged election talk back into his rhetoric, and I mean that in the sense of the forthcoming election. Talk of the 2020 election being rigged never really stopped. And consider also all the chess pieces which his acolytes have been moving into place in terms of trying to weight the election in his favour such as the election denying certification officials in Georgia. Everything says to me that the Trump campaign fully intends to contest the election should it look like they will lose via ballot, and that's by hook or by crook. They know no other way of behaving.

I'm not a purist and neither should Harris be. Take support from whoever, have as wide a support base as possible. Had the start of a good joke on the show. Three men walk into a bar, Bernie Sanders, Dick Cheney, Anthony Scaramucci. Behind the bar is Kamal Harris.

The punchline has yet to be written. BTW, none of the three men actually drink alcohol and Harris likes the occasional glass of wine.

How bad is Trump that all three named stand fully with Harris?

It’s the Daily Mail so let’s not get too excited - but still …any news of descent in the Trump camp can’t be all bad

“Nearly 50 days from the 2024 presidential election, there are signs that Trump's presidential campaign is reeling and even at war – with itself.

Multiple sources familiar with the campaign structure are now questioning whether the two people running the 2024 operation – campaign co-managers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita – should keep their jobs.

Despondency over the direction of the campaign has apparently been building for some time.

But, according to sources who spoke exclusively to Dailymail.com, Trump's 'disastrous' performance in Tuesday's ABC News debate against Vice President Kamala Harris and the decision to allow an infamous 9/11 conspiracy theorist to accompany the former president to September 11th memorial events, were the final straw.”

Dopey donald trump is to blame for all of his stupid failings.

Please tell me the Republicans can’t nominate another candidate?
