He's also gone after her personally, questioning her intelligence and her biracial identity.

When Trump, gets nervous, he goes back to the well of racism. misogyny and bullying. He has good reason to be nervous.

Questioning the intelligence of women is also a go to, especially highly qualified POC like Harris and AOC.

Trump wants desperately to be considered smart, even when he denigrates others including his low info supporters.

Trump will hate losing to a woman. And still still his fans.

The only think Kamala Harris needs to say to gain votes is:

“Trump, for his part, is racing to define her as a soft-on-crime San Francisco liberal”

Thats odd. His fans here seem to think she wasn’t soft on crime.

Pete should get the VP. His recent performance on Fox showed he knows how to deal with fake bs and get to the issues.

Thats odd. His fans here seem to think she wasn’t soft on crime.

The right has been claiming the left thinks she was too hard on crime.

So now they have to figure out how to argue both that she was weak on crime, and that she was too strong on it.

It helps when your opponent holds - in the words of a GOP official in attendance - - “Bat s#%t crazy” rally attacking a popular governor (and his family).

”A lot of republicans like me might just decide not to vote at all in the presidential election because of stupid antics like tonight,” former GOP legislator Allen Peake told the AJC. “Trump may have just lost Georgia.”

He also spent the start complaining that they couldn't fit more people in to the stadium and that people had to stand outside. When cameras showed that there was nobody outside, he said they were further back...

Kamala is getting bigger crowds than Trump, and he must be hating it.

When the governor of the state you’re in FROM YOUR OWN PARTY says publicly “Leave my family out of this.” as Kemp wrote on-line to Trump after his grievance-fest to a sparsely attended hall, your campaign is flailing.

Nonsense! The guy is not racist, but it seems that the thugs in the DNC want to push the race issue as usual…sigh to no end.

Questioning the intelligence of women is also a go to, especially highly qualified POC like Harris and AOC. 

So what’s the problem. What monumental thing has Kamala done except….what’s their names again? Ok, she was a prosecutor and ticked off most of California law enforcement and what else has she done? Giggling and Cackling are not employable skills

Trump wants desperately to be considered smart,

He is, he beat 17 establishment Republicans and one establishment Democrat, that’s not just smart, that’s genius.

even when he denigrates others including his low info supporters.

Low info? That supposed to make us feel bad? You need a better comeback, seriously.

Our MAGA-friends are once again in a "Funk" and "Black" mood...

And no wonder, Trump is mentally melting down more each day...at his Georgia rally yesterday he unloaded on Repub Gov Brian Kemp, who's trying to help get him elected...

Keep it up Donald, diss as many of your own Team Red as you can...it's suppressing your own vote - ROFL...

And Just Dumb Vance?  He's going down the toilet...every day he makes another stupid gaffe...

No amount of empty faux bluster and bombast on this thread is going to save the Repubs - they chose their felon and they're stuck with him - at least until Sep 18th when he's led off to his cell at Rikers Island...

Then Nikki Haley will dump JD and pick Rubio - and maybe the Repubs can only lose by 10 million votes instead of 50 million....

Harris is soaring in the polls, she doesn't need to be afraid of debating Trump on FOX. She will wipe the floor with him so her campaign should just accept the FOX debate offer. Let's get on with it.

She will wipe the floor with him so her campaign should just accept the FOX debate offer.

She doesn’t need to. He looks weak for backing out of the debate he agreed to, and she’s getting her policy out there en masse aside from the debate.

She’s in a win win situation. If he keeps hiding from her he looks weak, if he agrees to debate her he is the criminal groomer weird old man well past his prime against the young fired up prosecutor with all the excitement and momentum on her side. And being black and female, that already will have him angry, leaving him easy for her to poke.

Let's face it. Mr. Trump is older than I am. I haven't reached the gibbering, drooling age yet. Watching him, I hope I DON'T get that old.

Kamala has momentum and charisma on her side. Also she can pronounce peoples' names correctly.

Mr. Trump is simply too old to keep up.

Ooops...well, I guess we did surrender on that one...

But wait, there's that "medical miracle" COVID vaccine that Trump has assured us is "safe and it works"....

Uhhh....OK, so most of us believe it's poison and will kill you...

Well, there is one important thing we in MAGA-world can agree on - "Hannibal Lector is a wonderful man"...

Interesting campaign strategy the Repubs and Trump have - insult the people you're trying to get to vote for you....

You know, like courting minority and women voters by claiming they're "not Black" and "DEI hires" - that their hard work, education, and balancing a family and a job is all "fake" - they are inferior to white men and were only hired based on their gender and race.

I understand Trump is going to visit a predominately Black church in Alabama this week, where he is going to tell the congregation; "you folks ain't Black - you're a bunch of white Caucasians!" And more to the point, you ain't Christian either!" "Now, would you please vote for me?"

Even Trump suck-up and closet NEOCON Lindsey Graham is telling Trump to knock off the racist insults...

"Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told former President Trump on Sunday to lay off attacks against Vice President Harris about her race and heritage after Trump questioned her race in attacks that mimicked “birtherism” conspiracies. Trump said in an interview at the National Association of Black Journalists convention on Wednesday that Harris “happened to turn Black,” implying that she has lied about her race for political advantage. The remarks were denounced as racist by people on both sides of the aisle.

“So here’s what I would say to President Trump. The problem I have with Kamala Harris is not her heritage; it is her judgment,” he said. “Every day we’re talking about her heritage and not her terrible, dangerous liberal record throughout her entire political life is a good day for her and a bad day for us.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/graham-urges-trump-stop-attacks-151521857.html

Lindsey, do you actually think Trump listens to you? You told him to pick Rubio instead of Vance - how did that work out?

So you can expect a string of "bad days" until Nov - or an especially bad day on Sep 18th...ROFL..

It's an entirely manufactured effort to create "excitement" around a dud race-baiter with a lacklustre record as a lawyer, senator and VP. Typical marketing-speak for "we have a crappy product, but we hope to get enough muppets to put their brains in suspended animation for long enough to buy into it by employing flashy gimmicks." The left has absolutely nothing of value to give, so they sow division with identity politics. One week Harris is Black and uses a phoney Southern drawl. Another week she's Indian. What'll be next, disabled LGBTQI++++? No solutions to the border crisis, nothing about the economy, war, or anything else. Just fluff and "articles" like this written by drooling sycophants.

And you just have to laugh at the "weird" meme the left are trying hard to propagate about Trump and the Republicans. Weird? If that's the best they can do, the country has no hope if the D's somehow get the Oval Office.

It's an entirely manufactured effort to create "excitement" around a dud race-baiter with a lacklustre record as a lawyer, senator and VP. 

Is that why she doubled his fund raising for July in spite of only declaring in the last 10 days of the month? Because it’s manufactured enthusiasm?

Too bad Trump couldn’t “manufacture” a bit of enthusiasm at the same venue she filled only a couple days earlier on 3 days notice.

She can show up for a FOX debate, she’s soooo great, let her talk about her accomplishments then. ROFL!!!! Too funny, my tummy hurts

After that I can see her accepting a debate on Fox.

Or the opposite, she goes on FOX and Trump can go on ABC with the former Clinton acolyte.

-4 ( +4 / -8 )

Maybe one of our MAGA-friends here can explain this to us...

Trump refuses to honor his prior pledge to debate on ABC but now demands the debate must be on Fox...

But Trump has said this just a few weeks ago about Fox;

“Fox News will put up Fake Confidential Democrat Polls that were ‘leaked’ to them, but not Rasmussen or any of the REAL polling groups that have me way ahead,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social website. “What’s up with FOX? I do better with CNN!!!”

https://thehill.com/homenews/media/4762384-trump-rips-fox-news-polls-cnn/

Or this: "Why is FoxNews putting on Crazy Kamala Harris Rallies?" read Trump's post. "Why do they allow the perverts at the failed and disgraced Lincoln Project to advertise on FoxNews? Even Mr. Kellyanne Conway, a man so badly hurt and humiliated by his wife (she must have done some really NASTY things to him, because he is CRAZY!), is advertising on FoxNews. We have to WIN WITHOUT FOX!"

https://www.newsweek.com/trump-blasts-fox-news-showing-harris-rallies-1931737

So why does Trump demand the debate be on a network he says "promotes fake Dem polls" and "treats him worse than CNN",

And why is he now demanding the debate be on Fox when he said "we have to win without Fox"...

Now even you would have to admit that is WEIRD....

Trump is lower than someone who fights dirty with groin hits and poking fingers in the eyes. He doesn't know what to say other than racist or sexist attacks.

She has not faced the level of scrutiny that presidential candidates typically face. While she has kept up a busy schedule of public appearances, she has rarely taken questions from the press and has not sat for an in-depth interview. After four years advocating for Biden’s positions, she’ll have to stake out positions of her own on the political controversies that divide Democrats.

For a very good reason, avoid any notion or possibility to the pitfalls of unscripted public scrutiny, or press conferences.

Fox news rots the brain, Trump would cheat the debate if it was on Fox news, what Trump is afraid of is a fair fight. ABC showed sympathy when Trump was shot at but Trumps personality is either 100% agree with him or you're an enemy. Putin is very similar to Trump for that reason, it is illegal to be a competent opponent for an election against Putin because he is scared of losing a fair fight

I hope next is an answer to the question why Trump caved in his promise to debate on ABC and now demands it be on Fox when he claimed Fox "promotes Dem polls" and said "we have to win without Fox"...

How is going ON Fox winning WITHOUT Fox?

If Kamala Harris follow the strategic tactical advice, the game plan devised by Harris legion of consultants, to the letter, avoids sit downs, interviews with hostiles, unnecessary debate, concentrates on campaigning to partisan rallies and audiences, picks a running mate that can act as a shield.

I think I've figured out why Trump thinks insulting and disrespecting minorities and women will get them to vote for him...

No wonder he thinks this racist "DEI" attack will get him more votes...

Ever hear trump say “China”?

It’s so weird.

Or “bLack”?

A really weird over-emphasis on the 2nd consonant.

He had a debate planned with only Biden.

he didn’t say “anyONE”.

like when a boxer retires, the fight is canceled. The guy who now refuses to fight doesn’t get to pick a last minute replacement and demand the fight proceed same day and place.

see you on 4th or not at all. See Joe on the 10th?

And if that comes to pass, the electorate will know that it’s because he is a coward who’s afraid of educated black women and tough questions.

Not true. The debate was planned with the Democratic candidate, not Biden.

But I expect he won't chicken out. He can't afford to.

It was not. He clearly said he agreed to a series of 2 debates with “crooked Joe Biden” on the identified dates and networks.

Boxing is not the same as running a country, there is no Vice Boxer. Trump said he would debate against Democracy, if he wants to chicken out we could have Vance debate her. Would be interesting probably less meltdowns from his side but more nonsense talk from Vance

Kamala has said she's showing up on the scheduled date in September.

It's either a campaign rally for her with America watching, or Trump can be there to get knocked down debating her. Either one works.

The contract he agreed to didn't have “crooked Joe Biden” written as the opponent. It had the Democratic candidate.

Trump is a boxer passed his prime.

He's old, tired, and his attacks are ineffectual now. It doesn't help that everyone figured out how weird he is.

Yes, them. Scared of them, doesn’t think they are his equal. Having his own racist rhetoric thrown in his face by them terrifies him.

Thus the ducking.

Because he is a coward.

If Kamala refuses to bow down to Trump running to Fox news like a scaredy cat, then MAGA will think she's weak. If Trump is too scared to debate Kamala in Sept on the agreed up on plan, everyone else not MAGA thinks he looks weak.

MAGA can be safely discounted, there aren't enough of them. All the polls now show Harris ahead in the swing states.

She’s already ahead in the polls. DNC and VP pick will boost her further.
