BeyondGeography's JournalWaPo PA poll confirms for me it is about much more than the economy, stupid
The poll has Harris +1 at 48-47
What jumps out at me is this:
They have a more optimistic view of their own financial situations, with 60 percent positive and 37 percent negative.
Among voters who say the economy is bad but their pocketbooks are okay, Trump leads by 34 percentage points.

Feels like white people tying themselves in knots to justify their vote for Trump.
Not that we shouldn’t keep hammering away at our economic message, which is very strong, but the path to victory would seem to lie elsewhere.

President Harris needs to do a relationship re-set with him next year.

Tim Walz knows how to talk to people, yet another example
This is called sealing the deal.

CBS Sunday Morning: Hillary Clinton on Harris race, Trump conviction and more

This was today. Doug is very good at this.
So Trump is exposed as an empty vessel while getting his ass kicked in a debate
And by the end of the week the big news is imaginary migrant atrocities and his potential new squeeze.
Also known as how we got here.
Tim Walz was so good at Grand Rapids yesterday
that the overflow crowd went nuts when he greeted them afterwards.

He made great use of the debate in his speech; VP Harris could not have chosen a more effective advocate. Even for him, his passion level was off the charts. The whole speech, which includes a typically fiery, humorous and genuinely affectionate intro from Gov. Whitmer, is here:

As a teacher, let me help you out with these faces:

2. Seriously?
3. WTF?
4. There's ridiculous & then there's whatever nonsense that is
5. No, seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you?
6. Say what?
7. Damn, you are stupid
8. I will end you
9. Bitch, please
10. Just STFU already
An NYT commenter: For the "we need to know more about her policies" crowd
Do we care about the rule of law?
Do we care about division?
Do we care about bigotry?
Do we care about the environment?
Do we care if a candidate is a felon?
Do we tolerate being constantly gaslighted and lied to?
Do we care about the social fabric?
Do we care about others?
Do we understand that diversity is a benefit?
Do we care about personal autonomy?
Do we want this nation to be a right-wing Christian autocracy?
Do we understand what’s at stake in November?
I am so sad that these questions remain unresolved.
With thanks to “Avatar” from NY, whoever you are.
