That's Politico, where they seem to have lost their mind.
Democratic operatives, including some of Kamala Harris’ own staffers, are growing increasingly concerned about her relatively light campaign schedule, which has her holding fewer events than Donald Trump and avoiding unscripted interactions with voters and the press almost entirely....
Speaking of unscripted, today, everyone seems to be talking about her incredibly awkward inability to ad lib when her teleprompter malfunctioned yesterday:
Kamala's teleprompter briefly went out at the beginning of her speech — you can tell the exact moment it happened.

they seem to have lost their mind
I wonder where that expression came from?
Old Frankenstein movies?
Politico wants to be a worker bee and part of the hive mind but the queen is gone, baby, gone gone, where is our fucking queen? I don't know what to do! I don't know what to say!
Maybe while Kamala is on the Call Me Daddy blog she can sing this Violent Femmes song...

She's tipsy
Not full on drunk but she obviously knocked back a few.

That video has me convinced that no one cares WHO is sitting is a president,. Had this person bee running for dog catcher I would have voted against her simply based on her performance at the stage. No way this is leader of the free world caliber.
I thought that the Democrats would have pulled her before now.
They had an opportunity to have an open convention.
They chose poorly.
And the really stupid people like Inga and Rich that supported this as if Kamala would somehow become someone other than the first democrat out in 2019 are just going to have to live with their shame. You should never have gone along with this and you are just really dumb.
Hey vote her in. You just replace the figurehead on the door knocker. The real work will be done by those unseen and unelected. Same as it was when Joe was the figurehead. The fingers of the Obama cabal are all over this.
"Remember his number: 32!"
O.J. Simpson?
"avoiding unscripted interactions with voters and the press almost entirely" And why would that be? Smarter Dems explicitly recommended the strategy, knowing full well the liabilities of the candidate.
"her incredibly awkward inability to ad lib" But once in the White House, devising policy with staff, negotiating with Congress, dealing with foreign adversaries, she'll do fine, just fine.
Anyway, outside the political arena, would anyone hire Harris to run anything important? Of course, it doesn't matter: Dems prefer the figurehead, the better to push prog policy.
Call Her Daddy
Freudian slipper
It’s not too late to Bring Back Biden.
How Dare we speak Merry Christmas... two patties special sauce on a sesame seed bun
Not found on SNL(D)
But WaPo told us Harris is everywhere:
Here's the headline at The Washington Post for you to read between the lines: "Harris is running a much bigger campaign than Trump. Will it matter? She spends three times as much, employs hundreds more staff and dominates the ad war. But the race is effectively tied."
Politico (with apologies to The Shining):
All work and no play makes Kamala a dull person.
All work and no play makes Kamala a dull person.
All work and no play makes Kamala a dull person.
All work and no play makes Kamala a dull person…
It really is shocking how badly the people running the Democrat party have messed this up.
They didn't choose anything; Biden did. His endorsement of Harris killed any chance of an open primary, which was likely the goal. The Dems likely wanted an open primary to put in a better candidate, but neither Biden nor Harris could stand that.
I wonder if that audience was paid ?
No reason to worry. Kamala has a much bigger staff and more money.
That video was hilarious.
The race this time is meaningless. The polls don't matter. The candidates don't matter. The primary factor determining the outcome of this election is, as it was in 2020, the mail in ballot harvesting operations of the Dems versus the Republicans in a few key precincts in a few key states. Georgia, Wisocnsin, Michigan, and most importantly Pennsylvania, will have their election outcomes determined by unauditable, unverifiable, but perfectly legal mail in ballots. Harris can only lose this election by stopping her party's hired operatives from sending and collecting those mail in ballots.
Still, she does look pretty bad in the posted video. Could be an entertaining disaster for 4 years of having her repeat this on the world stage, again and again and again.
Hillary would have far more competent in this situation - and that's what made her so scary as a candidate.
Wake up, Puppet Girl !
Elvis was everywhere too!
She is rendered speechless thinking of the January 6 insurrection when thousands of armed rebels stormed the capitol, causing hundreds of deaths and almost overthrowing not only the government but the order of the Universe. Oh, the humanity!
Today is the first day of the rest of the day.
"Trump’s campaign, are betting that voters will see Vance's facial hair as a sign of Vance as the rugged everyman — 'a young Abraham Lincoln,' as Trump said earlier this month — rather than giving off undertones of an untrustworthy aggressor."
Politico published that sentence. Yes, they have lost their fuckign minds.
Underdog, huh? I guess with the teleprompter on the fritz Kamala accidentally let slip what their internals are saying.
Plus Dominion voting machines and lots of cardboard to cover up the windows to the counting rooms.
I think Althouse had it right a couple of weeks ago. Harris' heart is not in this. She just does not want it badly enough.
My thoughts: Harris knows she is not up to the job, knows she is only there as a tool; has observed the incompetent Biden sustained and supported then cast aside like dog shit, fears the same in her future if she wins.
And well she might.
"32, yep, 32 days. 30+2 or 22+10 or 35-3. It's all 32 days which will soon just be part of the passage of time. The significance of the passage of time, right? The significance of the passage of time. So when you think about it, there 32 days that have to pass until we experience the passing of this election. That's serious."
when the marionette strings take a cigarette break... the puppet doesn't know what to do/say.
Actually, the first 7sec are the worst. WTF exactly is wrong with her - and her freakish face?
With water buffalo man leading the charge
Obama: If you like your administration you can keep your administration.
Seems like only yesterday I read "where's Trump? He's given up!" on X or wherever
Harris and Walz are the least capable due running for a major party in our lifetimes. The idea that Althouse has not decided how to vote in this election is astonishing. How could she possible vote for this duo, or waste a chance to vote for the only viable alternatives.
The media's commercial interests override their alleged journalistic interests. They want a close race, and as much spectacle as possible — viewers, clicks, engagement and ultimately oodles of campaign, PAC and issue group advertising. It’s nauseating for sure. And not at all *news*
Painful. I couldn't watch beyond past second 18.
Kamala is the poster child for, "Vote Blue -- No Matter Who!"
Jim Brown. If you're serious, it's got to be Jim Brown.
What Tank said. Inconceivable that Althouse would vote for Harris/Walz
BriBaBi?
Trump has placed Cory Comperatore’s Fire Fighter uniform in the stands where Cory laid down his life protecting his family from the assassin bullets.
Imagine if a sniper took out a Kamala supporter. The Media would be screaming non-stop.
She says "This is going to be a very tight race until the very end". Yes indeed, it is at "the very end" that I expect the tide of votes will become a flood in her favor. It's not as if they have failed to give notice of their intentions.
What a waste it is to lose one’s mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is.
--Dan Quayle in a speech to the United Negro College Fund, May, 1989, slightly remembering the slogan "A mind is a terrible thing to waste" promoting black education.
Co-worker commented that a strong back is a terrible thing to waste.
So many ways she could have recovered from this.
She coukd have just matter of factly said “My teleprompter’s out. You guys are so important to me that I dont want to leave out anything that I wanted to say to you, so let’s see if we can bring this thing back up.”
Also on the staff side, did no one give her a paper copy of her speech, either in her pocket, TR style, or on the lectern?
She could have had a nice George Washington moment putting on her reading glasses.
Surely her Senate career alone prepared her for things to go wrong in public speaking.
JSM
I can't watch Walz speak without thinking of those Temptations pet food ads with the cats with giant cartoon eyes.
I can't think of anything weird enough to compare to Kamala, except more Kamala. Turtles all the way down.
You'd look like that too if you'd been passed around at Democrat Party freak offs.
Democrats need to take a look at this video and honestly ask themselves what would happen with Kamala as POTUS in a national emergency.
My guess is that they know the Deep State would assert their authority as they have done for the entire Biden administration.
Their campaign slogan should be "Trust the bureaucrats because they will always be in charge".
"...unburdened by the 32 days which have been..."
I did watch it to the end, and I’m wondering exactly how she’s able to say “we are the underdogs” she’s supported by literally 100% of the mainstream media, meanwhile Trump is vilified by the same.
Democracy indeed.
I don't wonder at all if the audience is paid. Harris has to punt out normal people and bus in paid actors/supporters for all her events. Which only works if you're trying to paint an aura of universal popularity AND control all speech in America. Any normal politician, even David Hogg, could take an independent crowd as a fun challenge. But Kamala is a recovering alky tramp. She can't do it, and never could.
I really feel sorry for the women who have hitched their wagons to her as some kind of historic figure. If Kamala is the first woman President of the United States, it will deal a fatal blow to female candidacies in the future. There will be a competency backlash.
You all thinking the choice is Binary for Althouse need to think harder. There are third party candidates and no vote as well. It is more likely that she is clear on not voting for Harris, the question is sitting out, third party, and Trump. That is probably more like her undecided state. Pulling the lever for Trump may just be a bridge too far.
Pulling the lever for Trump may just be a bridge too far.
That is what I thought in 2016.
I did not need to be red pilled. Reagan did that for me in 1984. I needed to be convinced that Trump really wanted to be POTUS.
I will be voting for him again, not just because the Dem candidate is a moron, but because he is the best of the bunch in both parties.
How many attempts on her life?
Inauthentic doesn't quite cover it. To think she might be the President. Harris-Walz is easily the worst ticket ever.
look at those diatribes against the knights of columbus and Kavanaugh, and ICE, and get back to me,
Biden made the endorsement as a final FU to the party for forcing him out. He was always a mean, petty and vindictive little excuse for a human being.
I keep telling my friends that Harris is dumb as a post. I obviously have been insulting the post.
Interesting take.
She's a marionette for the puppeteers. If nobody was pulling her strings, she'd collapse into a heap. The teleprompter mishap was a perfect example.
Kamala-la-la-la-la is smarter than every single Althouse blog lefty/LLR-democratical lefty moron / DeSantis-or-bust accounts who now shill for Harris (thougj this is a small group)
Let that sink in.
She's running through airports.
The dogs won't eat the dog food, no matter what the ad men try.
We won't have electricity to watch her failures.
Facial hair is masculine. Lots of (sane) women like that sort of thing.
Harris is in no way qualified to be President and Tim sure as hell is unqualified for any post. If Harris is elected we are, in the immortal words, of GHW Bush in "deep do-do".
I saw a "rally" photo from an event Kamala is speaking at today. It appeared there were about 50 people in the audience and 50 staff and media members.
Meanwhile, Trump is back in Butler, PA with about 60,000 attendees. I believe Elon Musk is speaking there today as well. The line to get into Trump's rally was backed up as far as the camera eye could see.
Wait, is that why it's called the Washington Post?!? Nothing to do with the post office or any other meaning of the word 'post', it's the Washington (Dumb As a) Post? That would make a lot of sense!
Look up "ninny".
That's her picture.
Politico is all excited at the thought that Trump voters in NC/TN/SC/GA will not be able to vote next month. Their comment included the statement that Trump voters were not intelligent enough (as smart as Democrats) to get the polls in spite of the Helene destruction.
Not really. Democrat state officials complained about the 2016 Hillary campaign not going to their state. Hillary didn't even visit Wisconsin once.
I loves it when she calls me Big Poppa!
I noticed that when Joe spoke that Jill wasn't at his elbow. She must be royally ticked to have let him off the child-leash to say anything he wished the way she did.
[dog] comes, sniffs your crotch > isitunderdog?
I am unburdened by their desperation as I grew up in a middle class home and actually did work during high school and the first years of college at a McDonald’s.
I would like to know exactly what the administration is doing for the storm victims though, because it seems that they’ve been spending a lot of money in wars we don’t belong in and moving people that came to our county in violation of immigration policy inland.
This is intolerable acts stuff.
Dems are Dems and they will vote for her. All the so called intellectuals in my neigborhood, the colllege professors and lawyers, all have Harris signs in their yards. I thought they were smarter than that.
the fact that their homes, their belongings have been destroyed doesn't concern axelrod, son of Communists btw,
Kamala would make a good talk show host. Not on substance, but on her enthusiasm and constant happiness. Honestly, when she is keeping a straight face or trying to be serious, it seems like a strain and an uncomfortable act.
Always wonder if,as a prosecutor, she actually did any real trials, or was simply involved in plea bargains. Any administrator can seem competent with qualified subordinates
I agree. Chasing the fantasy of becoming president is one thing, that can motivate a political career. The dream required having good looks, a strong ego and a lot of family emotional support; but doing the actual job requires a much greater skill set and mental fortitude she knows she doesn't possess.
That's why she's avoided the press, imo. She was never the underdog, she's the VP of the US. She could have had wall to wall press conferences to discuss her vision for the country, if she had a vision.
Robert Reich on X:
If Trump is reelected, Justice Alito may retire. Justice Thomas too.
Trump would then be the first president in more than 50 years to appoint a
majority of the Supreme Court.
I never thought I’d see the day when Reich would come up with a big reason to vote for Donald Trump, but there it is.
Harris is the Michael Scott of politics. Cringe worthy every time.
there is no evidence to this,
Hillary Clinton goes full Soviet.
It's this simple, really.
Althouse asks…
Why are the headline and subheadline nearly identical?
Well, like Kamala when she repeated “32 days” over and over again, maybe Politico’s teleprompter malfunctioned?
New BOMBSHELL allegations from FEMA whistleblowers help explain why the federal government's response to Hurricane Helene has been so horrendous.
Do you ever wonder who is writing Kamala's teleprompter?
What I really liked was the other day when she needed to defend walx as not being g a horrible choice. She needed to explain how he really is much better than he seemed in the debate.
Instead, she admitted her horrible judgemet and blamed it on being drunk on cooking wine. "Marinating a roast" she euphemistically called it.

"Their comment included the statement that Trump voters were not intelligent enough (as smart as Democrats) to get the polls in spite of the Helene destruction."
Don't Democrats regularly claim their voters are too stupid to be able to figure out how to get an ID to vote?
Kamala wants to be President in the same way that a 7-year-old wants to be President. It would be really cool to hold the highest job in the land, but the work and stress that it requires to win the job and then the work and stress that is required to do the job properly are massive. Kamala is lazy and, for that matter, not all that bright.
If the mainstream media was not overtly supporting her campaign, the Dems would be looking to push her out as well.
"Trump would then be the first president in more than 50 years to appoint a
majority of the Supreme Court."
As the saying goes, you don't have to sell me- I'm already voting for the guy.
It’s a miracle that this woman can even read a teleprompter.
I wondered how long before Clooney takes out the full page ad to bring Joe back..
The Dems were rightly worried that large numbers of Dem voters would refuse to vote at all if Joe was at the top of the ticket.
I think they were right to dump Joe. But I think I was right when I pointed out before they did it that they didn't have any good options with which to replace Joe, so they were still going to lose
Wibble and jam are right. But it doesn't matter, because they couldn't have dumped "black female" Harris even if Joe didn't shiv them with the Harris endorsement.
When they chose last year not to have a Primary, they sealed their doom. They bet everything on "we'll be able to hide Joe's dementia."
Once they lost that, they were out of luck
After reading this post, I just looked at NYT. Summarizing: Economy is doing okay; Hamas and Mid E is doing not okay, Kamala has issues w/ her dad, then a bunch of jabber about both candidates re doing day to day stuff.
So how about WaPo?: Rs ditch banning abortion; the minority lady is running a much bigger operation than the orange man, but does that matter; the orange man wants us to remember that he had to put a bandaid on his ear.
That doesn't seem super panicky. But, I would expect the lame stream media to start the big amp-up. People are starting to early vote so now is the time to start the pressure time. But, it's important to build the pressure. Seems like NYT and WaPo are at the beginning of the ramp up. As makes sense.
IMHO.
BTW, this is a great Althouse post.
When she get into the brains of other people and tell us what they're up to, she is awesome.
Her work here sussing out the thirteen second mark is some of her best blogging. But when she was reading the hidden message of an HRC ad that was spreading the N-word, that was peak Althouse.
She's so cool. And hilarious.
IMHO.
It’s not astonishing at all, she voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016. She didnt vote at all in 2020. She’s full of surprises.
Perhaps the Dems wanted Harris to take the big landslide loss to clear the field for others in 2028. Anyone else who wanted to run now would have had logistical and fundraising problems IMHO. Either Trump wins in a landslide or Harris cheats and wins
I really wonder (this is a serious concern, not a political gotcha!) who is actually running the US Government. Obviously it's not Biden, except in the sense that the person/people really running things go through the formality of "consulting" The President. It's not Harris, who seems to have no specific knowledge of what the Government is doing, and does all she can to distance herself for the tough decisions "her" government is making.
But the big question -- sorry BIG QUESTION -- is, who will run the Government if Trump becomes President? My impression is that in his First Term Trump was not fully in charge of the Government of which he was President. Sure, even under those constraints he did a better job than Obama or Biden, but we really need more than that NOW.
IS TRUMP READY? I hope so, because he's the only game in town.
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity. - Yeats
And that fits the description of Kamala's campaign to a 'T'.
"IS TRUMP READY? I hope so, because he's the only game in town."
I caught a bit of the jabber after the debate where the kid demolished the old geezer that lied about being in China. But none of that jabber seemed to focus on the big red flag that was my biggest takeaway from that debate. WTF!?, Wharton says DJT will increase the deficit over the current insane spending that is in law by $5.8 trillion over ten years ($4.1 trillion if you use dynamic scoring).
And the minority woman will only add a fraction of that: $1.2 trillion (but $2.0 trillion with dynamic scoring.)
How is the only game in town a dude that wants to massively accelerate the economic destruction of the US?
Sheesh, it seems that a lot of you DJT supporters have very broken brains. You probably think you know more about economics than Wharton.
Scary!!
Can you clarify re the minority woman v DJT: which one is the best that lacks conviction, and which is the worst that is full of intensity?
Hillary Clinton, who will never be President of the United States, will never be President of the United States ( how good those words make me feel ) in large part because even though she was able to speak well in public, her disdain of the country and its people always came through, leaving it clear she was in politics solely for herself.
If Trump somehow wins, overcoming mail ballot harvesting by the Dems, I suggest he start offering a simple T-Shirt online, with the word "UNBURDENED" printed in big letters front and back.
"Now, stop and think of this. It’s a party. It’s a party! You have to assume that the adult beverages are flowing. I don’t know about the president, and don’t misunderstand, I’m not suggesting anything here, but it’s a party. It’s a St. Patrick’s Day — Shamrock Day — party. You gotta assume this. So here comes the Irish guy, goes up to make a speech after Obama, and the teleprompter plays a little game on everybody, doesn’t switch the speeches. So the Irish guy gives the same speech for 20 seconds that Obama gave, and suddenly realizes, ‘Wait a minute. I just heard this.’
So he turns to Obama and says, ‘That’s your speech.’ Obama says, ‘Huh, duh, ha, ha,’ comes back to the podium. While Obama is on the way to the podium, the teleprompter (very craftily, very shiftily) put in the right text for the Irish guy, and Obama starts reading that, and he continues to read it until he thanks himself. Because the Irish guy’s message in the prompter was, ‘I want to thank President Obama…’ So Obama thanked himself! At some point, do you not realize that? Don’t you just stop, before you get to the point where you thank yourself? And of course the British papers talk about, ‘What is this guy’s dependency on the teleprompter here?’
https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2009/03/18/a_few_important_questions_for_president_obama_s_teleprompter/
Maynard @ 1:33 PM,
"Democrats need to ... ask themselves what would happen with Kamala as POTUS in a national emergency."
Kurt Schlichter already has his fictionalized take on this question.
Dear God in heaven, we cannot allow this cackling idiot to become president. We can't.
Folks, vote for the felon...it's that important.
How about a shirt that says: "Trump 2024 Fuck Your Feelings"? When I drive around Quilcene WA (a rural place where I sometimes live) I see a house (/shack) that is displaying this flag.
Maybe you, like these folks with the Fuck Your Feelings flag would like to buy a Fuck Your Feelings shirt to show you support Trump. Or you may just want an UNBURDENED shirt, not a Fuck Your Feelings shirt.
BTW, there's a condo near the University Village that is near the University of Washington in Seattle (another place I live) that has a sign that says Fuck Trump and it also says (something like) "fuck you too if you support Trump." Presumably some folks would want a shirt like that.
I only buy political stuff ironically. And I hide that stuff cause folks may not get the joke. I few days ago I got my white MAGA hat. BTW, the hat has 2024 stitched on the right side (while it's worn), and the flag on the left side. Is it just me or is that messed up. It seems like on a stage the American flag goes to the right of the person on the stage as they look out at the audience. Shouldn't the flag be on the right side of my hat? IDK.
FTR, I also have a red MAGA hat ornament from 2016, it does not have a flag on the side. But it does have 24k gold trim. And it does fit on my Hillary For Prison bobble head.
Anywho, it may not be clear, but I (like a ton of his staff that has worked w/ him in government such that they know him way better than any of us ever will) think DJT should not be POTUS again. But for the LOL I have twice bought merch from him.
Dems can't ad-lib because they may mistakenly say something truthful.
If we assume that, to maximize patriotic symbolism to America, the flag should be on the right side of the hat when it's worn, is it possible that the DJT staff is so full of idiots that when they were ordering the production of this hat they were looking at onscreen images such that they looked at the rendering on a screen in front of them and the flag was on their right side as they sat in a chair in front of a monitor?
Or maybe putting it on the right side of the hat introduced the question of displaying the image backwards, as if it's being blown in the the wind while moving forward,
Who knows maybe this hat of mine is a total screw up, and very few have ever been made. I have the Inverted Jenny of MAGA!!
I'll sell it for a thousand dollars. Any takers?
And pipe bombs too frightening to speak of.
"How about a shirt that says: "Trump 2024 Fuck Your Feelings"?"
Perhaps, after Obama's "bitter clingers" and Hillary's "deplorables", some people on the right are not in a mood to be charitable?
Do you suppose that's possible?
Regarding the idiot scale, do you put yourself above or below the woman minority?
Likewise on the quality of laugh scale, how much better or worse are you when compared to the woman minority that is running for POTUS?
In what way is calling people "bitter clingers" and "deplorables" *not* saying "Fuck Your Feelings"?
Mason G, DJT says a ton more about bitter clingers than BHO ever did. Do you know what BHO actually said? HIs statement was so precise as to pretty much refer to nobody. But if it did catch a couple people the observation of BHO was the handbook that DJT used/uses to stoke his followers.
"You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them," Obama said. "And they fell through the Clinton Administration, and the Bush Administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns OR religion OR antipathy to people who aren't like them OR anti-immigrant sentiment OR anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."
This is literally the core of DJT's campaign. So if you hated BHO for noticing this, you must think DJT is satan for using this to trick these people so he can add $5.8 trillion to the debt (according to Wharton) so rich people can get richer while this folks clinging to anti-trade sentiment get screwed, again.
The millions of illegal aliens don't care. They are all registered to vote. 700,000 in Arizona.
Well, if she had a concert headliner like she has had for her other big crowds- she'd have a big crowd!
BTW, I just looked at the label in my white MAGA hat with the flag on the wrong side. It was made by Cali-Frame Headwear. Looking online it looks like they may be base in LA.
Is it possible that the lame stream deep state libruls of LA have sabotaged DJT and my MAGA hat?
Just Sayin.
In what way is calling people "bitter clingers" and "deplorables" *not* saying "Fuck Your Feelings"?
The “bitter clingers” and “Deplorables” are just Douchebagian words they believe will still convey what they really want to say about people that hold different principles and beliefs.
"HIs statement was so precise as to pretty much refer to nobody."
That's what you believe? So then- why would he make a comment that didn't refer to anybody?
Even my leftist FBI daughter told me in 2016 that she would not vote for Hillary. She wouldn't vote for Trump but she is smart enough to see through Hillary.
Just as a reminder, That statement from Obama was made at a California fundraiser prior to the April 2008 DEMOCRAT PRIMARY in Pennsylvania about how his ability to attract support from Midwest DEMOCRATS.
And, as noted in the linked article, it drew waves of criticism from both Democrat and Republican politicians.
“She’s full of surprises.” Yes, she is!
And it’s a wonderful thing. Much preferable to being “full of shit”, like you.
I like the unburdened t shirt.
Your comment is so spot on!
Mason,
He was talking to a bunch of super rich Left coast elites that could not possibly be more out of touch with the hardships of people in those small PA and midwest towns that have had terrible and declining economies for a long time. His assessment was not wrong. And most folks summarize the comments as being re clinging to guns and religion. It was actually guns OR religion OR anti immigrant OR anti-trade.
For some reason the immigrant and trade parts are rarely mentioned, and the work "or" is usually replaced with "and." So we get clinging to 'guns and religion," which is not the statement by BHO.
And, FTR, DJT has run and is running on all four of the categories BHO highlighted.
Those big crowds cost real money if you are Kamala.
In a world in which both the right to vote and "fairness" (both alleged priorities of Democrats) were in fact paramount, the Democrat party, the media (but I repeat myself), and Congress would do the necessary to make sure that any voters who couldn't get to the polls or submit a qualifying early/absentee/mail in vote due to the hurricane would be able to do so.
Perhaps by means so radical as allowing Internet access provided by Elon Musk to facilitate voting.
The fact that there hasn't even been a WAPO/NYT editorial suggesting such a thing, or even lamely condemning Axelrod for letting slip what the Dems are thinking about this, tells us exactly how they feel about their precious "Democracy."
She didn't. Her contribution was to demand her staff stand and say "Good morning General."
“I can't watch Walz speak without thinking of those Temptations pet food ads with the cats with giant cartoon eyes.”
Temptations? That fat tub of goo makes me think of the Temptations “Ball of Confusion”…
People moving out, people losing jobs
Why, because of the Biden-Harris knobs
Run, run, run and you sure can lie
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
Vote for me and I'll give it free
Rap on, Timmy, rap on
Well, the only people talkin’ about lovin’ this nation are the Trump-Vance
And it seems nobody's interested in Timmy, he’s a dumb schvantz
Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration
Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation
Tub of confusion
Oh yeah, that's what Tim Walz is today
hey, hey
Sprezz thinks Trump will increase the debt. Probably true at first as he has been left with disasters by the current regime. He will have a tough battle with the bureaucracy but should be better prepared. What we need is the guy in Argentina.
Wharton says DJT will increase the deficit over the current insane spending that is in law by $5.8 trillion over ten years ($4.1 trillion if you use dynamic scoring).
And the minority woman will only add a fraction of that: $1.2 trillion (but $2.0 trillion with dynamic scoring.)
Sprez--do you buy that?
Trump is not a budget-cutter. Nobody thinks he is.
Do you really believe that Kamala Harris is? Or will in any sense seek to control spending?
Also who the hell is "Wharton?" Trump is A Wharton grad. Does he count? Or just whoever wrote whatever it is that you purport to claim represents "Wharton?"
Also nobody gives a shit about your hat. Get over yourself.
Does anyone ever wonder why Nurse Ratched only shows up in late pm threads? Maybe she is nursing a hangover from drinking with her cats the night before.
Point of information: Harris only served part of one term in the Senate.
I wonder if Sprezz is actually stupid enough to buy the garbage the regime is putting in front of him.

Speak English, please.
There are so many smart, articulate and talented people in our country. How is it possible this lightweight is even under consideration for President of the United States.
Identity politics. It's why Biden picked her and thus why we're in this position.
Sprezz. I'll make you a bet. Within the first 100 days he's going to ask each federal agency to do an audit of its expendatures and personel.
Trump is everywhere. Anxious Dems wonder why Harris isn't.
Perhaps because the more people see of her the less likely they are to vote for her
Why can't you see Kamala on the campaign trail? I've got a theory. Kamala now says she comes from Oakland. And that may well be the case. There are hospitals in Berkeley where babies can be delivered. But her parents were either grad students or young faculty members at Berkeley. As such they probably had Kaiser Health insurance and the nearest Kaiser hospital is in Oakland. So Kamala is an Oakland girl, and as Gertrude Stein famously said about Oakland, "There is no there there." That explains Kamala's lack of substance.
Yes, he is. What do I win?
why are the dumbkopfs cheering the number 32?
Harris didn't have to compete very hard to win office in California, a solid Blue state with a weak, rudderless Republican opposition. She hasn't had to work for higher office, it's been handed to her on a silver platter. Now she's in a real dog fight. It'll help that she has a built=in GOTV machine and the celebrity-media complex blowing wind into her sails, but she doesn't have the charisma of Obama, just a JV version of his voice inflection. I sense some desperation building. Only Kamala can position herself for success this time, but I don't think she has what it takes.
For some reason I keep seeing "Sprezzatura" as "Spermatozoa".

IIRC there were something like 700K voter registrations where the voters thought they registered properly but there was some irregularity and no one - not the voters themselves and not the Secy of State - realized they had not been validated. I don't recall the details but the more I learned the more it seemed like an honest mistake. You can google it but initially it sounded like they just registered 700K illegals and then proved to be more an honest mistake. IIRC.
