^nice. 

 

also this. 

“In the presidential election of 2024 there is only one political party and one candidate for the presidency that can claim the mantle of defender and protector of America’s Democracy, the Constitution, and the Rule of Law,” Luttig wrote in a statement obtained exclusively by CNN. “As a result, I will unhesitatingly vote for the Democratic Party’s candidate for the Presidency of the United States, Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris.”

Hands are too big. Otherwise, no notes.

Also, Drumpf wants to ban people's ability to criticize his very special judges. [free article for a limited time...]

I like how the DNC audience is a diverse set of faces that actually represent the demographics of the country, unlike the RNC's audience.

When I used to go to Capitol Hill because of my job, the Democrats (members of Congress and their employees) were the normal people who I liked talking to. While the Republicans gave off a Stepford Wives/Get Out garden party feel. 

Kamala Harris uses the term "weird" and I suppose that's pretty accurate.

Any truth to this?  Is this even legal?

reports are coming out that Trump and Netanyahu have been talking and that Trump has asked him to not accept a ceasefire agreement because it could help Harris 

idk the validity of these claims but it’s sad that it’s completely believable.

I haven't seen any confirmations so far. Doing something like this as a civilian [ which, Drumpf is whether he likes it or not ] would lead to a whole hell of a lot of trouble, the type that we wouldn't hear about until he'd been locked in a hole somewhere. And after him bragging about how he was still able to call up NK and talk to his very special friend, I'm guessing all his lines are now under constant surveillance.

"From the start, Harris has worked to tie Israel's hand behind its back, demanding an immediate ceasefire, always demanding ceasefire," Trump said, adding it "would only give Hamas time to regroup and launch a new October 7 style attack."

This is going to be remembered as the "Heal the Land" speech.

How much do you think it would break his brain if someone recognized him on the floor and was nice to him instead of immediately asking him to leave?

I'm surprised he doesn't sense the legal danger in doing so if he's doing it as a quid pro quo. I'm almost sure there is some prosecutor somewhere watching this closely.

I'll go off of vibes and make a prediction: Harris will win all the states Biden won in 2020, plus North Carolina and some other state we're not expecting yet. 

Like when Obama won Indiana once and everyone was surprised.

Maybe Florida. I've been hearing stories of retirees getting sick of Trump and DeSantis.

If anything he siphoned Trump votes and he will probably not convert many people to the GOP. They'll probably go to the Libertarian Party.

You have to remember that Florida went to Obama twice. It's probably a longshot, but not as much as Texas.

Yes quite a few states have abortion on the ballot. Here's hoping it riles up enough people to make their voices heard.

totally worth noting that as of right now, Mary Peltola is clearing 50% in the open Alaska primary. If that holds, she should be the favorite in the ranked choice general election.

Reminder: Harris skipped being interviewed by this guy, which is why Trump is going to win.

True, but would anyone want to be around Trump longer than they had to?  I don’t trust Dubya on policy but I presume we could have a civil, non-sociopathic conversation.  Trump can’t even accomplish that much because he's such a goddamn weirdo that any conversation would inevitably be about how great he is and his victim complex.  So even on that level of personability, he fails.

That being said, we're voting on policy, not social interaction.  And Trump loses there too.

My joke may not have landed, it was a crack at the tweet that we should be worried he loves vidya games.
