In a string of Monday evening posts on Truth Social, Trump intentionally misspelled the vice president's first name as "Kamabla" after a series of posts earlier in the day calling her "Kamala Crash" and accusing her of bringing about the "Great Depression of 2024."... Trump used the "Kamabla" nickname in a variety of contexts across four posts on Monday, first in relation to food prices, writing: "food is now at an all time high because of Kamabla/Biden INCOMPETENCE."He then used it in the context of debate scheduling "Kamabla Harris is afraid to Debate me on FoxNews," before using it too attack her record: "Kamabla is the WORST V.P." He also used it in a description of what he said were Harris' views on policing and fracking: "Kamabla has stated, over and over again, that she wants to DEFUND THE POLICE AND, WITHOUT QUESTION, BAN FRACKING. "NO MORE FOSSIL FUEL."
I still don't get it why he's saying "Kamabla." Is he being silly/nonsensical?
I asked Meade and he had an immediate guess that sounded good to me: "Kama-blah, like blah blah blah." If that's right, it's a reference to her much-mocked speech patterns.
Trump tries out different nicknames for people. I doubt if this one will last. He has a trial and error approach to nicknames. This one did get Newsweek to repeat a whole series of Truth Social mutterings (and yellings). So it's at least that successful. As for "Kamala Crash," that won't last if the stock market picks up, so I hope it fails.

For the same reason Biden called Trump "Trunalimunumaprzure".
I prefer to call her Kamala-lala-dingdong.
The Wonder-Woman-Of-Word-Salad is offended by this?
Bless her heart.
Great minds, same gutter. I thought exactly what Meade did.
And I thought Kumala was truth in advertising. As ever, the Master of Meme gets it done.
If Trump wants to win, he needs to stop this type of stuff. Just attack her horrible record. Call her San Franciso Kamala or something like that.
Economy, border and crime. That's it. Victor Davis Hanson wrote a piece on that topic yesterday.
I think a good nickname would be Kamala Chameleon.
"If Trump wants to win, he needs to stop this type of stuff. Just attack her horrible record. Call her San Franciso Kamala or something like that.

Women hate (but also secretly love) a man that can wrestle with them verbally blow-for-blow, but you are right Dave...unfortunately. These schoolyard Beckies hate when the same catty insults that got them to the top are beamed right back in their direction. Lord knows, it wasn't their brains that got them there.
But yes, this type of rhetoric needs to be reduced. It hurts the feelings of Wine-O-Clock Wendies everywhere.
I found it funny. Kama-bla (bla blah).
Meade is always right.
I think people will continue to get sick of Trump’s weirdness.
Do we really want four more years of P.T. Barnum in the White House?
she is evil and corrupt and stupid,
they can defame our best all day long,
yes she destroyed san francisco, and by extension minneapolis portland chicago ny,
she stands with every terrorist group and gang,
they want to murder children in the womb and mutilate those that survive,
Yeah, they may put arrest Trump on bogus charges, have the FBI raid his house, try to put him in jail, call him a nazi and every name in the book, lie about him, refuse to report his statements accurately, censor him from social media for years, impeach him twice, try to bankrupt him, and gin up the hatred so high someone shot Trump and almost came with one mm of killing him.
But gosh darn it, Trump's going to lose if he calls Kamala harris by a funny nickname. America just wont stand for it!
I thought Kamabla blah blah was rather obvious.
Maybe it was only obvious to men.
she wants to outlaw beef and electricity (reliable ones)
she wants to abolish the 1st Amendment effectively,
we have not seen a more ridiculous and evil creature in American history,
Speech patterns? LoL!
I still don't get it why he's saying "Kamabla." Is he being silly/nonsensical?
@Althouse, why do you care? You aren’t going to vote for the man anyway.
I thought the pronunciation was 'Comm-la' with the 2nd 'a' silent.
So 'Comm-bla' works really well
Comm-bla, blah, blah, blah.
Mamala is still my favorite.
Althouse could put up a poll for best nickname.
Nah.....
Quemala or Que Mala, tomato tomatoe,
Whatever his reasons, it'll stick.
I think Meade has it right. Kamabla, blah, blah, blah.
As for naming her it is time to research the Hindu goddess this Indian lady was dedicated to at birth. She is the head goddess also called the Tantric Lakshmi that is Royal Grace and the bestower of wealth, fertility and good luck. She is usually portrayed with 4 arms sitting on a Lotus flower surrounded by 4 elephants. Weird as it gets.
So Trump is insulting the goddess’ name.
when the markets have digested her policies, that have been continuous for 10 years of inanity, it will crash,
Oooh - Holy Moly! brings ‘weirdness’ back into the conversation. Nice work sticking to last week’s talking points, Holy Moly!
Trump nickname is right on target. Kamabla is known for her word salads and inability to say anything concise and to the point. Like "Slow Joe", she needs a script or a telepromter.
But of course, it doesn't matter. She has (D) after her name.
Trump is weird, though.
He is outer space weird.
Begley: "If Trump wants to win, he needs to stop this type of stuff. Just attack her horrible record. Call her San Franciso Kamala or something like that."
You have got to be kidding me. "San Francisco Kamala"? Yeah, that'll work....precisely nowhere.
Walzing Kamilda, Walzing Kamilda,
You'll come a Walzing Kamilda with me,
And his ghost may be heard if you pass around that MJ bong

I am working on getting Kamalamadingbat into wide circulation.

Like LLR-democratical Rich just the other day who embarrassed himself repeatedly since he had to venture out into the great "online town square" beyond without sufficient guidance from the higher ups!
Sham-Bala
The media and Sham-Bala working hard to erase this FACT.
"Do we really want four more years of P.T. Barnum in the White House?"
Do you think it looks worse than the last 4 years of The Stooges in the White House?
He's empathizing with that Indian professor's? sympathetic effort to help people respect Karma-la's Diversity in pronunciation.
Trump has the P.T. Barnum problem of always needing to outdo himself.
At some point, people yawn.
Do Diversitists still refer to Trump by his color bloc: Person of Orange (PoO)?
Trump should leave the name-calling to others.
Trump does this for his base. His base loves the name-calling. Trump needs to focus on more thatn the people he already has in his camp.
9:31 - what Dave Begley said. Trump needs to up his game and ditch the juvenile insults.
"So Trump is insulting the goddess’ name."
Yes. The lesbian Jedis are mucho pissed if you haven't noticed. How dare he gore their golden calf.
"Trump should leave the name-calling to others."
I'm your huckleberry.
Trump is empathizing with the liberal crones. Queer but respectful of their cult-ural norms. One may say it is weird accompli.
one can walk and chew gum at the same time,
point out shes a fraud, show what she has done to her city and state,
She wants to outlaw beef? She's going to have to wrest a lot of hamburgers out of cold dead hands. Maybe a T bone if the person is wealthy.
lesbian Jedis
Lesbian is a cultural appropriation from the Isle of Lesbos where the two sexes joined with gay harmony in viable evolution. Jedi is a trademark in the Lucas empire, where it is believed that Darth Joey was conceived.
Бля, one letter shy of Блят.
1. Nancy Pelosi is running Kamala.
2. She said Don't tap Shapiro, the better fit, because our youthful Hamasites would have one.
Trump was doing a great job of staying on message before Joe dropped out, he should get back to that.
Maybe a T bone if the person is wealthy.
Her patron saint, Obama, will tolerate nothing less than wagyu beef served in a hot anthropogenic climate.
Same first reaction as Meade. She does tend to blah blah blah her way through interviews, saying nothing of substance. I for one do not find it to be a "genius" strategy. I think being an allegedly "black" woman, she is above any criticism of her delivery and prep skills. At least above direct criticism, because we know her staff turns over and leaks like the Titanic. But she hates to hear anyone "beneath her" (that's how progressive's think you know) deign to correct her. I never realized how imperialistic (uppity) Brahmins were until she appeared on the big stage. But that is a typical Canadian attitude towards Americans, and that is where she went* to high school.
*Maybe someone will do an easy to read biography that explains how she could have been that little girl Biden wanted to deprive of yellow buses.
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves: "9:31 - what Dave Begley said. Trump needs to up his game and ditch the juvenile insults."
Voices from the cheap seats have opinions.
If Trump wants to win, he needs to...
Begley, remind us what you said about Trump and advised him to do the first time round.
Trump was doing great staying on message before Joe dropped out, he should get back to talking about the issues that voters care about and leave the insults to others. Vance is a outstanding spokesman for Trump.
Drago will not tolerate any criticism of his one-god.
they want to hang you in the Town square, those decent omaha liberals, and you're as earnest as Atticus Finch,
We want Trump to up his game ... so he can win. Why does this astound his tru-blue base?
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves: "Drago will not tolerate any criticism of his one-god."
There is solid, relevant criticism of Trump from all directions on all sorts of issues from serious players who understand the greater context. They are always certainly worth reading.
However, that completely excludes buffoons like you, and always will.
You've made it perfectly clear over the last several years you despise Trump, you really despise his supporters and not just a little, you wanted anyone other than Trump to be the nominee and you cannot go a day without pretending you know things much smarter and much more informed people (almost everyone?) than you know.
So that is the context in which every one of your "constructive criticisms" (LOL) resides: an ill-informed hater from the outside.
Congrats.
she wants to destroy the careers of women athletes, that is how she is pro woman,
she can lie as easily about the 'don't say gay' bill as the florida history curriculum
she went to Poland and Putin decided to go all in Ukraine, instead of half under Obama,

Your very use of the term "his one-god" gives your game away. So very dumb on so very many levels.
the only more ignorant are those wide eyed ditzes on tick tock,
those were the things she said against Desantis,
I don't care if they are black brown or other, but don't be lazy patronizing and stupid in the mix,

yes she needs to be ridiculed then we can go long on her record,
Trump needs to be careful that he doesn't step into the Macaca trap.

"We want Trump to up his game ... so he can win. Why does this astound his tru-blue base?"
No GOPe suckup wants Trump or any other disruptor of the establishment to win. That has been made quite clear for years.
Trump is too busy bashing Republican Governor Kemp in battleground state Georgia (that voted him in) to think of good names for Kamala Harris.
Trump. Must. Win.
Suburban Susie might be dreadfully wrong, but Susie votes and she does so with her feewings. If that means soothing the slandered ego of Susies and their hen-pecked husbands by focusing more on issues instead of shooting zingers that hit the mark every time, then it must be done.

For an answer, you would need to consult with those who brought the circus to town when Trump was duly elected, and proceeded to let the clowns and monkeys run wild ever since - to this day, in case you haven't noticed yet. To call this sh*tshow that's going on, 'Trump's fault', is to be worse than blind.

Kamgobbla… Kamgobbla… Kamgobbla
Bow wow wow wow wow Kamgobbla
Trump is merely being Trump which is to say he is being as obnoxious and irritating as possible. Trump does this as naturally as a chameleon changes colors. Alinsky explained how to attack; personalize, marginalize, and antagonize your opposition. Done right it works too. Trump releasing a 200 page
policy paper on urban policy for example doesn't help him that much. Most voters don't GAS about it either. They want mud fights and unappealing as that may be it's how our clown world political process works.
Please do run on Bidenomics Mark. That's a sure winner!
obama raising the finger, rather nonchalantly, the way they ridiculed mccain hecause he couldn't type because they broke his back in the laogai, do I need to refer to all the things they called and insinuated about Palin,
but she's such a fragile snowflake, well harris will sell you and your daughters into slavery,
you will be cold hungry, and desperate, your home will no longer be your castle,

That's called a "dead cat bounce." Let's see what happens next.
Back in the 1970's my mainland college roommates taunted this Hawaiian-born kid with, "How come you didn't go to Kamana Wanna Lei U.?" This thread made me think of that juvenile joke and the possibility of doing something with Kamala-wanna-lei-ya, but that really isn't that funny and I'm almost (but not enough) ashamed to bring it up.
Blah - root word of blog and Blogger, from the old English blahg and Blahger.

I'm glad you brought this up. The answer is "both". "Both" is hard. It is hard to be both intellectually stimulating and witty at the same time. Political campaigns are like a series of elevator pitches. You're having to get your message across as quickly, as cogently, but also as humorously and cleverly as possible.
I said it in another comment some days ago, but it takes real skill to antagonize the opposition with subtlety that only they detect while appearing clever and competent to your own base.
In many ways it is one of the things that define leadership, and Trump definitely has it.

"Well, that's certainly reason enough to kill the man, isn't it?"
Leftists don't have a problem with killing others when they're in the way of getting what they (the leftists, not the others) want, that's just who they are. Who's more innocent than an unborn baby? Yet leftists are just fine with killing them for their own (the leftists, not the babies) convenience.
The celebrated scholar of organizational dysfunction, C. Northcote Parkinson, devoted a chapter of his book In-Laws and Outlaws to "Chairmanity": techniques for getting a committee to do exactly what the chairman wants. These included (among others) "Confusianism", "Browbeatnikism", and "Blahmanism". The last was drowning out any dissent with a flood of technical or financial details.
