The 2024 U.S. Presidential race

[Beebo Brink]

Brilliant! If there's anything Trump can appreciate, it's showmanship. And he lost BIGLY in the comparison.

Go back in time to May and tell yourself that someone is going to try to shoot Trump, then Joe Biden is going to drop out, then the dems will execute a flawless pivot to Harris, and then we'll spend 3 weeks talking about JD Vance fucking a couch and then Obama will make a dick joke at the DNC

I'll admit, I had none of those on my 2024 Election Campaign bingo card!

Vote Vets, a progressive veterans advocacy group, hammered former President Donald Trump's campaign for "stolen valor" in response to a letter signed by dozens of Republicans criticizing the service record of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.

After looking at the list of signatories on the letter, Vote Vets determined that "29 of the signatures come from Republicans who falsely claimed they retired from military service."

Republicans: Every accusation is an admission. The effort is also a bloody obvious political hitjob, considering the Trump/Vance header on the release.

Donald Trump is now facing the wrath of Swifties after this post on Truth social, which is an AI generated image of Taylor Swift saying "Taylor wants you to vote for Donald Trump" and he answered with "I accept."

While Trump seems not to have made these fakes, he's using them. Swift openly endorsed Biden in 2020, so a change of mind is unlikely.

'Don't get personal': Trump rages after Michelle and Barack Obama speak at DNC

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump complained about former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama a day after the couple spoke about him at the Democratic National Convention (DNC).During a campaign speech in North Carolina on Wednesday, Trump went off-topic while...

"Did you see Barack Hussein Obama last night?" [Trump] asked the crowd. "Take little shots. He was taking shots at your president. And so was Michelle."

The Obamas were taking shots at President Biden? I think Donny is starting to hear and see things that aren't there.

He would have thrown in behind Harris for a cabinet position. Trump promised him something. Probably something in Health and Human Services where he can push his anti-vaccine/medication agenda.

"That's my Dad!"

Tim Walz's son crying and yelling out "That's my dad" was an unexpected emotional moment for the convention.

"That's my Dad!"

It was also cute watching republicans on twitter act like loving family dynamics are weird...

I'm so glad you posted this -- watching Kamala I was really thinking, "Am I losing my mind? Was she like this when she was a candidate?"

I found the answer to the what and why of Kamala's transformation from 2020!

Washington Post: The reinvention of Kamala Harris | Harris’s energized rallies mark a sharp contrast from her often-stumbling appearances of four years ago. That’s not an accident.

CHICAGO — Fifteen months after her inauguration, Vice President Kamala Harris’s chief of staff had resigned, part of a dispiriting drumbeat of staff departures. A stumbling television interview on immigration was routinely featured in Republican attacks. Her often-tentative public appearances were reminding Democrats all too clearly of her recent presidential campaign, which had collapsed before a single vote was cast.

Now Harris is barnstorming the country, electrifying rally audiences with one energetic speech after another. Voters are lining up for blocks for a chance to hear her speak. Her crowd sizes are outpacing anything Democrats have seen since the heyday of Barack Obama. On Thursday, she will step before a packed, enthusiastic crowd at the United Center to accept the nomination of an adoring party that has closed ranks around her with historic speed, culminating one of the most spectacular turnarounds in recent political history.

Harris has so far limited her appearances largely to scripted gatherings before friendly crowds and has yet to hold an extended news conference or debate Republican nominee Donald Trump (they have a debate scheduled for Sept. 10). But the remake is unmistakable, and it is no accident.

Harris’s team and top Biden aides took specific steps to right the ship — but only after what some White House officials now admit was a poor job of supporting the vice president at the outset.

Fantastic "fuck you" message. She's cooler than Charlton Heston.

Michigan AG to Republicans: 'You can pry this wedding band from my cold, dead, gay hand.'

Michigan AG Dana Nessel took to the stage at the DNC in Chicago on Wednesday to speak on freedoms secured by Democrats in her endorsement of the Harris-Walz ticket.

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel took to the stage at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Wednesday, and spoke about freedoms secured by Democrats in her endorsement of the Harris-Walz ticket.

"Just as the same-sex marriage ban was overturned in California, so too was the abortion ban in Michigan. By the way, I've got a message for the Republicans and the justices of the United States Supreme Court, you can pry this wedding band from my cold, dead, gay hand," Nessel said.

Since being kicked out of the MAGA squad for impure, anti-Trump thoughts, she's lacking "peers."
