Trump refused to answer prosecutors questions in his trial, he damn sure will avoid being questioned by a prosecutor in front of the American public.

It's clear from Trump's beats that he's scared to DEATH of Kamala! It's beautiful to see. 🥥 Power!

OldDon knows that the emergence of Kamala means he'll spend his retirement years, after some time in Rikers Island, at Magaville in Florida.

Bone spurs is a chicken shit, and he always has been. What he's most afraid of is a powerful woman. we saw that when Pelosi put him in his place. The DonOLD is going to be MIA. Playing his cheating golf game. Everyone knows. He's such a loser.

I’ve been paying attention to Trump’s behavior the last few days.. I think something’s up.. he acts like he can’t lose.. I wonder what the GOP is planning.. Could it be in the bag by the Supreme Court?

Knowing Trump he might be planning to replace Vance on the ticket to get the attention back on him.

I would be polishing up my dossier if I was Vance.

I'm concerned about that too. I've expressed it here and elsewhere. It must not be dismissed. It's serious.

No, it cannot be overlooked. Many bad actors are right now being seeded within the election infrastructure, at many levels, in many states. Many are election deniers, with even some J6'ers joining the act. Voting rolls are being purged, and tons of other recently contrived shenanigans are being deployed. Bet on it. If you can't win elections legitimately, subvert the process. This is nothing new. HOWEVER, we've never had to worry so acutely about the SC. Overtly partisan, ready to do the bidding. And they don't give a s/t who sees this. First step to autocracy: appropriate the judiciary.

US SC immunity case: "Donald Trump v. The United States". Could there be any better way to summarize the problem?

I want to see a Trump / Harris debate.

I think that using the "Don the Con" meme would be effective for Kamela--being Donny is both a conman and a convict

I prefer "Diaper Don."

Deadbeat Don.

Also: "I know his type." In that statement, Kamala branded Trump. I don't think she needs to stoop to memes. Her surrogates can do that for her.

I think that's exactly what we're doing. And it isn't stooping. Not when Trump has been disparaging people like he has for as long as he has. All those loser veterans. You know, the suckers. He likes people that didn't have the misfortune of being a captured and tortured for 5 years as a POW like McCain did. Or telling his nephew when he reached out with a group of people advocating for help for his son and other disabled people that they'd be better off letting their loved ones die. That is the kind of a small dick man DonOLD is. When I think of Trump, it conjures a fetid, steaming pile of shit in my mind. Infested with maggots and flies.

Stormy times ahead as the Republicrat/Putin hate and disinformation machines gear up for an epic session of Whack-A-Mole accusations, lies, hate, and general vitriol. The common resort of abusers and a go to tactic as their dominance is challenged. Pay attention - they are telling us who they really are, but don't take the bait and respond with similar tactics. Deciding to wrestle a pig in mud eventually leads to the realization that the pig enjoys it.

Carry on, vote, and wave as you fly over.

we will respond at a time and place of OUR choosing ;-)

So, if they had a wake-up call are they now “woke”? Maybe a little tiny bit?

Naw. They're as thick as the thieves they are.

So yesterday Trump withdrew from the next debate "given the continued political chaos surrounding Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrat Party.” Meanwhile Biden withdrew nearly a week ago and the Dems have never been more unified. Projection as usual. Trump is confessing to the chaos in his team.

Trump is old and tired and wants to spend time on the golf greens. He doesn't have the capacity to campaign full time. Harris has spent nearly four years as understudy to one of our finest Presidents. She is smart and very capable of rising to the moment. She's allowed to be herself this go round. She won a very tight race for AG in California and is no slouch on the campaign trail (as we've already seen). Women are doubly excited both due to the aftermath of Dobbs and the memories of 2016. JD Vance only clarifies the disdain that MAGA and today's GOP have for women.

I also think the short campaign benefits Harris....it's how all our federal campaigns should be handled....this two plus year saga is ridiculous...merely content for "reality show" news that plagues our airwaves these days. Do as Canada does and limit campaign season to " 37 to 51 days." How glorious that would be.

I agree with you, except our campaigns are 4 years long, not 2. They start at inauguration. There isn’t even time for governing. That’s why Congress is stagnant. All they do is dial for dollars.

Think of what else all that money could buy!

And cap the amount of money that can be contributed and spent on a campaign. Before Citizens United there were some limits, but money is free speech, dontcha know.

Agree wholeheartedly esp. with short campaign (if only all of them could be this length).

Concur, four or six month campaigns would be plenty.

Given the number of Harris campaign events and speaking engagements in just the last five days, the Harris campaign seems pretty well-planned out in advance.

Also showing what ENERGIZED feels like. Trump ain't got it. Vance ain't got it.

WE GOT IT!!

Clear to see that they had laid that "old" framework way early , even during the nominating process, and now they're kind of stuck. They have attacks, but they aren't as obviously disqualifying as Biden's age and obvious decline was.

And now, just like that the chicken shit backed out. He's so fucking easy to read. What a POS.

I hope the Trump team continues to bask in its near certainty of victory: it will make it that much easier for Harris to knock the chip off their shoulder.

If "immigration" and "inflation" are all they've got against Harris, they're in for a sorry campaign season. Both of those issues are easy for the Harris team to counter with facts and data: Lankford on the border; a tariff proposal that will hit the middle-class all the harder, etc.

And we all know how the "culture war" will play out among the voters. Kansas, anyone?

Trump says he can’t be nice??? What a joke!! It’s not in his DNA, assuming he has any. Does anyone in his campaign assume his 9 yr schtick is wearing thin except with his base? He has baggage, big time. Reproductive freedom, Project 2025, JD Vance who looks after JD Vance and Thiel. And, he’s a convicted felon, a fraudster, and he has committed sexual assault, etc, etc. Does anyone believe democracy will survive a 2nd Trump regime. How about his inflationary tariffs and permanent tax cuts for the ultra rich? Maybe Trump’s best future is an ankle bracelet at his rundown palace in Florida? There is only one option for people who believe in freedom for all, the Dems and Harris.

Just saw the new ad by Seneca Project which will drop. Stellar and powerful. Tara Setmayer explained that this group’s goal is to galvanize women (regardless of political affiliation) to defeat Trump. Really gives me hope that America’s women (and the men who support them) will turn out in record numbers to stop MAGA in November.

Yep, not just Dem women.

I’m a guy. I had a mom (now at rest). I have an awesome wife, two daughters, two granddaughters. I will NOT see their freedoms rolled back or their health care decisions taken away by (mostly male) legislators who want to dictate families’ decisions. Not voting for right wing extremist government that intends to treat Americans that way.

I have Republican and undeclared male friends who feel the same on this issue. We’re not going back

Heck ya!!!

AMEN to that! Although I’m not a mom, and I’m well past child bearing years, I care deeply about generations now and to come. I was in my 20s when Roe became law and I never imagined that I would see future generations of women have fewer rights than I did. Appalling. So, YES, we’re not going back!

Thank you Trudy. I want to add- I was expressing why this issue is very personal to me. In an alternate universe where I’m the same guy but never had kids I believe I’d feel the same, cuz ALL women deserve these freedoms. Hard to know how I’d have turned out in that universe! What I do know is the women in my family have always helped me be a better person 💖
