LymphocyteLover's JournalTrump-Vance are running the most vile & hate-filled campaign in modern American history and it just can't be ignored
Deeply racist comments
Dangerous and harmful comments in the aftermath of Helene
Gross insults all the time of Biden and Harris
Threats of mass violence and mass deportation
My gut feeling is trump/vance's utter derangement will backfire on them but it's doing so much damage to our national psyche. And on the very significant chance they get into office, it is scary as hell.
My greatest hope is Harris/Walz wins big and these terrible people, Trump/Vance are shut up for a while. Not to mentionTrump has multiple criminal trials awaiting him and if anyone is due for the hand of justice to weigh in on him, it is him.
Disturbing story about my daughter's friend who went from a Trump hater to a Trump supporter
The friend is a 21 year old white girl
The key factor seemed to be that she got involved with a guy who is a massive Trump fan, has a picture of Trump on his bedroom wall
This girl says she's watched a lot of pro-Trump TikTok and now she likes him.
She found his arguments on immigration compelling, now supports building the wall. Is worried about inflation too.
Her BF told her Trump will never sign a national abortion ban. Although this is kind of moot since we live in Indiana with a strict abortion ban now.
Maybe the worst part was she was using very denigrating language about Kamala.
My daughter and her other friend argued with her and got her to say she would vote for Kamala, although who knows if she will stick to this. Also apparently the girl's grandmother offered to pay her college tuition is she voted for Kamala!
I know this girl is young and she's sort of dippy, but I'm just so disturbed anyone can shift like this. But that's the way propaganda works...
When asked about climate change at the debates, both Trump & Vance gave the same line about wanting clean air & water
WHO THE HELL ARE THEY TRYING TO FOOL? Do they really think this means anything, to be in favor clean air and water??
It's a deeply insulting answer for such a massive threat to our civilization. Both of them clearly are denying climate science about the role of human emissions. Frankly this in itself should be disqualifying. Completely disgusting, psychopathic and evil to not take this incredibly major threat seriously.
I was just thinking how when Kamala wins*, there's gonna be a LOT of really angry men
and it made me smile.
I just hope none of them get violent.
*fingers and toes crossed!
How long did it take to get a Harris-Walz yard sign after ordering? I bought one from the KamalaHarris.Com website
early on, but my order never went through for some reason. Then right after the debate I ordered a new one. It's been almost 2 weeks but it hasn't been shipped yet.
I saw other people complaining about how long it took to get a sign or they haven't gotten theirs yet.
I saw Amazon has a ton of signs for sale and wondering if I should get one, if it will come more quickly. Or how scammy these Amazon sites are.
Any advice?

Kamala's New Gun Ad
"Vice President Harris: Tim Walz and I are both gun owners. We will not take anybody's guns away. We can support the Second Amendment as I do and also agree that we need some reasonable laws. We don't want our kids or anyone to live with that kind of fear, and there are things we can do about it"

Harris and Walz to sit with CNN for exclusive first joint interview since campaign began
Source: CNN
Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will sit with CNN for their first joint interview on Thursday as Democrats work to broaden their bases excitement from last weeks Democratic National Convention.
The interview, conducted by CNNs chief political correspondent and anchor Dana Bash, will air at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday. It occurs as the candidates embark on a bus tour through the battleground state of Georgia and marks the first time Harris has sat with a journalist for an in-depth, on-the-record conversation since President Joe Biden dropped his bid for a second term and endorsed her on July 21.
The 37 days since her candidacy began have generated a swell of enthusiasm and momentum for Harris, including at last weeks convention in Chicago. But her lack of a formal news conference or interview has generated criticism from her Republican rivals. Thursdays interview fulfils a vow she made earlier in August to schedule a sit-down before the end of the month.
With the interview, Harris extraordinarily truncated campaign is entering a new, post-convention phase. Her team is anticipating more scrutiny as she and Walz enter the final weeks before early voting begins. Harris has also been preparing for a September 10 debate with her Republican rival, former President Donald Trump.

I already saw some criticism that the interview is joint and not solo. Oy.
I was thoroughly impressed with Kamala's speech. She delivered it flawlessly, hit all the right notes
She painted an important contrast with Trump.
Most importantly, she seemed presidential. I can see her as president!
And goddamn it, she HAS to win, because the consequences of a 2nd trump term are catastrophic for democracy, the country and the world.
Vladimir Putin manipulated Donald Trump's 'ego and insecurities', new book from HR McMaster says
We can't forget that Trump is a complete puppet of Putin:
Vladimir Putin manipulated Donald Trumps ego and insecurities, book says
Former US national security adviser HR McMaster claims Russian president had a hold over Trump in new memoir

Vladimir Putin exploited Donald Trumps ego and insecurities to exert an almost mesmeric hold over the former US president, who refused to entertain any negative evaluation of the autocratic Russian leader from his own staff, and ultimately fired his national security adviser, HR McMaster, over it.
The bold assessment of Trumps fealty to Putin comes in McMasters book At War With Ourselves: My Tour of Duty in the Trump White House, published by HarperCollins and arriving on 27 August. The Guardian obtained a copy.
After over a year in this job, I cannot understand Putins hold on Trump, McMaster recalls saying in the memoir covering the turbulent 457 days the now retired general served as national security adviser from February 2017 until he was effectively fired by tweet in April 2018.
The comment, to McMasters wife, Katie, came in the aftermath of the poisoning in the UK by Putins agents of Sergei Skripal, a Russian former intelligence officer, and his daughter, in March 2018.
