I turned on foxnews to hate watch for a few minutes and they were defensively arguing that the Dâs making Trumpâs age an issue wasnât going to work.
Lol Reddit, but saw in r/conservative someone trying to lambast the Dems for bypassing the will of the people in order to annoint Kamala without a primary. Someone responded that Trump unfortunately killed that talking point by trying to bypass the results of the last election.
of course itâs the afterglow and long way to go but itâs so great how hyped everyone was after the announcement, like a half million people gave to kamala yesterday, most of them new donors. Crazy how the tone can change when you donât run a candidate born in a pleistocene tar pit
imo election isnât going to be about flipping moderates so much as mobilizing the base, and the main issue with low-turnout voters is abortion/choice. There will be a zillion op-eds about swing voters but easier path to victory is turning out low-propensity black women / black communities & suburban white women. I wanted a primary and my favorite was Whitmer but timing didnât work and Kamala is very solid for this moment. Of course itâs a demented system but in this system the whole shebang is prob coming down to who can mint ~10-80K new voters in like five states; expanding the vote is way more cost efficient and durable than persuading voters.
Also natural to worry about DEI DEI DEI seeing as how we live in a bigoted tire fire but thereâs still a big pool of POC nonvoters in the key states. I keep reading thereâs a big voter registration gap in a lot of these states, but that the registration programs donât really get rolling until September, so, something to work on.
Kamala is pretty good on all the above and she really opens up NC which is big. Iâm pumped. I guess we wonât quite turn Texas blue this year but if we ever do then Iâd bet on the American Troubles to start by like noon the next weekend
Thatâs what I hear. Iâm glad they have their safe space.
The other comments say stuff like theyâre already mad someone will call them racist for not voting for her, then go on to say sheâs only in this position due to DEI.
Making the election a referendum on who the candidates have fucked isnât exactly a great path to go down for your rapey epstein island loving cult daddy.
Canât find a source for what King is saying. Iâll eat my hat if Trump legit skips this. But maybe if he does Kamala can just do a town hall. Or better yet get her on Hot Ones. Sheâd make a great guest.
