I see, so now you are ashamed to fly your MAGA colors in public and supporting an avowed socialist.
Like Trump sharing the stage with a radical left lunatic.

Downvotes are not answers. I'll repeat my question.
I'm confused (again) - when does a "pregnancy" become a "baby"? Just so we're clear.

Which Trump supports up until the 15th week - so once again, why do you support a "child-murderer"?

BINGO! He finally ADMITS Trump is a child murderer....
Is that one of the things that would cause you to not support him?

No one is killing "babies".
That would be murder.
So why are people not arrested and charged with murder? Because a fetus only becomes a baby at birth when it survives using its organs and not those of the mother.
Who is killing those babies?
60% of Americans support the termination of pregnancies.
About six in ten Americans say abortion should be legal in all or most cases

I know why Kamala is afraid of press conferences, interviews, journalists and anyone who wants to ask her meaningful questions—because she doesn’t know what to say.
Back in 2020, she was so far left she had to drop out from the race and now she’s been in office for three and a half years and it’s been a mess so it’s almost like she doesn’t have anything to say.

You're the one that said you still believe life begins at conception, but still support someone who says he's OK with killing babies until the 15th week...in your own view, a "child murderer"....
Uh, you're saying the economy is MORE IMPORTANT than the SANCTITY OF LIFE?
That's really interesting - you think the price of a Big Mac is more important than protecting the unborn...
Is that an official Repub position now, because I'm sure all the Christian voters out there would like to know that....

The crazy world on US broadcast media focuses of personalities foremost,
Analysing policies, whether any are actually feasible achievable is a distant second.
The political propaganda broadcast 24/7, is bordering on the extreme end of misinformation/fakery.

538 in 2020?
“The only misses, however, were those that worked in Trump’s favor: Biden was favored to win Florida, North Carolina and Maine’s 2nd Congressional District when Trump won them instead.”
“However, nearly all of our models’ misses came in the same direction; namely, Republicans won in races where Democrats were favored.”
Cards fan
Just the other day Trump fans were claiming all RFK supporters would now be voting for Trump. We can see that isn't true.
Considering RFK's pro-abortion, pro-environment stance, do you think she'll be the only RFK supporter not backing Trump? I don't. I think a significant portion of his base will either not vote or back Harris.
Way to condescend the very voters you need to woo to even have a snowball's chance of winning.

This thought terminating cliche. Notice how they'll criticize Nate Silver, but never clarify why.

No, we just think you can keep talking to yourself about the same thing over and over and over again, you focus on your repeated talking points and we will focus on the economy and border discussions.

so that's one state. According to my link, does that mean she's going to lose the election? no.
Is she up nationally? Yes.
Also up in NC, MI, WI, AZ, and PA.
She's losing is just cope.
This again will not be as big a jump as you hope. Some RFK supporters will go to Trump, but not enough to make up the gap.

No, only in Wisconsin and Michigan, Trump is leading in every other Battleground state.
Yes, polls are a snapshot in time, now having said that, the debates haven’t happened yet, so once that finishes it’ll become tighter.
Yes and Kamala needs PA, if she can’t get that and Trump wins it according to the electoral map, he wins.
Well, to be fair it will be tight, no doubt about that.

Harris's policies include:
proposing 40 billion dollars in tax incentives for building new homes.
passing legislation to give up to 25,000 dollars to buyers toward a down payment.
passing a federal ban on price gouging in food and grocery industries.
not raising taxes on people making less than 400,000 dollars a year.
proposing a tax credit expansion where low and middle income families can receive up to 6,000 dollars during the first year of their child's life.And this is just the tip of the iceberg. More are on the following link that I think some have already posted:
https://www.thecut.com/article/what-are-kamala-harris-policies.html
Trump policies on the other hand is to:
get rid of the "deep state" by taking away the civil service protections of tens of thousands of employees.
reissue the "Schedule F" 2020 executive order which will reclassify many employees with the intent to focus on so-called "corrupt bureaucrats" who have weaponized the justice system. (which should actually focus on Trump himself since he's shown to do that).
conduct large numbers of deportations. While under that umbrella of deportations, many illegal immigrants are to be deported, many of them will be legally living here, but have so-called "jihadist sympathies". Of course, he hasn't mentioned how it will be judged or found if they have any or not.
move thousands of overseas troops and place them at the U.S.-Mexico border.
drill for more oil on public lands and offer more tax breaks to oil, gas, and coal companies.
require prayer in school. (This boggles my mind since I know Trump has never read the Bible and probably has committed all sins listed in it.)Then of course, there is the extremely controversial Project 2025, which sounds similar to policies instituted during the Reagan years (e.g. cutting taxes for the extremely wealthy, while leaving out the middle to low income classes).

It doesn't. Do you have any idea how many fracking jobs are in Pennsylvania? Less than 20,000, .63% of all jobs in Pennsylvania. Fracking isn't the only issue that matters in Pennsylvania, good grief.
Also, she's up in NC. So she could actually lose Pennsylvania and win.
Blacklabel
you know this is false.

It does. Kamala has no path without Pennsylvania.
so now her entire political career of publicly being against fracking has now “changed”.
that not her stance anymore. Never really was, ya know! how so and why? She won’t answer.

We're once again treated to our daily dose of MEGA-MAGA-hypocrisy...
How many posts have we seen here where our MAGA-friends here claim Harris won't say her policies...
While at the same time, asked for THEIR AND TRUMP'S POSITIONS on;
Protecting the unborn - does life begin at conception OR should abortions be permitted until the 15th week?
Silence....
Are EVs a total hoax, all built in China, and will bring down the US auto industry OR are they "fantastic" and "everyone should buy one"?
Silence....
Is the COVID vaccine a medical miracle, safe, and saved millions of lives OR is it a poison that will kill and maim millions?
Silence....
They are either too embarrassed or humiliated to provide their positions on their own core conservative values...it's clear proof that MAGA-world is empty and defeated...

She's up in all the swing states.
Rather bold claim that despite being down by more than the margin of error that Trump is somehow actually going to win.
2024 is not 2016. Harris-Walz are campaigning in swing states and not taking their votes for granted, Trump on the other hand doesn't even have a ground campaign.
Am I 100% confident Harris will win? No, but I think it's silly to look at the polls and claim Trump is "winning."

LOL the US political system, revealing how corporate power and economic imperialism have hijacked democracy.

Don’t you think Pennsylvania voters would love to know what is Kamala’s policy on fracking?
all her history is against it, which means she loses the election.

Remember back when, oh a few weeks ago, when you claimed the Obama’s wouldn’t endorse her. Had a whole conspiracy about it and everything.

Apart from enthusiasm for her, Harris benefits from the fact that she’s neither an unlikeable jerk, nor a narcissistic sociopath.
Oh, and she’s not a convicted felon either.

Because the media is supporting voters to know zero about her actual policies while pushing the “joy” nonsense.
and she’s not actually “winning”- just losing less than Joe was so it’s seems hopeful.

The unintentional MEGA-comedy of when MAGA supporters accuse people like AOC and Kamala of being unintelligent is always revealing.
Of course it comes from racism and misogyny.
But it is even more counter-factual MAGA blathering when AOC and Kamala both gave groundbreaking speeches at the DNC.
https://www.npr.org/2024/08/19/g-s1-17838/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-democratic-national-convention
The hate of the GOP for AOC presaged their fallback strategy against Harris that we can see will backfire.

Or just plain-old stupidity.
lincolnman
OK....so you believe life does begin at conception life you posted before - which means you see Trump as someone who has rejected his Christian values and is a clear abortion advocate who supports the outright killing of children in the womb until the 15th week...just like the "Libs"...
In sum, you support a Lib child murderer...
And while we're talking about not "flipping" still think EVs are all a hoax and will kill the US auto industry? Trump has flipped on all that and now says they're "fantastic" and like the vaccine, encourages all his supporters to get one...
Glad to see you haven't flipped and aren't buying any of Trump's lies...

No, it really doesn't, it says that it is a losing issue to talk about in a tight election like this, and abortion is not even in the top 3 issues concerning Americans, so why get bogged down on an issue the left wants to talk about? That makes no sense. Let them talk about it, and Trump and the GOP can talk about the economy, border, and illegals.
Not the vast majority of them, so all is good. They know where he stands as a Pro-lifer, but he's not going there for now. Pick and choose your battles; the economy is a hill that must be fought over.
Well, you have your opinions, nothing wrong with that.
I never flipped on anything.
Some dude
It's kind of interesting, as an outside observer, to read these articles and the accompanying endless squabbling.
Most of the news I get is from Threads, and the general gist of the comments there is that Trump has basically given up, having seen the momentum of the Democrats' campaign; the only reason he keeps going is to try and stave off his legal problems for a bit longer. And his choice of VP seems to have been a disaster; said VP candidate seems to have been doing a great job of alienating various social groups.
Whereas here, we have a small but (relentlessly) vocal minority who are insistent that he has a genuine chance to win and that literally everything that has ever gone wrong in the history of the US is the fault of democrats.
One thing's certain: if Harris wins, the reactions from around the net are going to be a psychoanalyst's wet dream.

There is more MAGA hilarity (the black humor kind) of how their messaging has shifted after Harris' DNC speech from all the 'she is hiding, can't deliver a speech, word salad, is low IQ' to 'What about her policies!!'.
It is like Trump they were Biden glitching and still thinking they are running against him.
If you trust Trump then you know she is a 'radical left communist' so you do not need to ask about her policies, end of story.
If you actually google them and have some much needed cognitive dissonance and find out no school lunch debt, affordable for all health care and making billionaires pay the same tax rates as their office workers does not mean Stalinist gulags; you might have some revelation about Trump's rhetoric and Harris' policies.

Not when it comes to Socialist goodies or Trump hatred.

Neither does Trump essentially.
I.e., remove protections for regular Americans in favor of big corporations.
America is already energy independent based on Biden’s policies.
Same as Kamela. This is just to get Nevada.
I.e., favor rich and corporations over regular Americans.
I.e., boost inflation. The Trump tax.
So does Kamala.

Abortion? What's YOUR policy/view on abortion?
Life begins at conception like Trump used to believe before he saw the polls and Red State referendums - and surrendered?
Or his NEW FLIPPED view that its OK to kill babies until the 15th week?
Which do you support?
Bob Fosse
So does Harris, if you bothered to look.

Not like there are any women in America. I'd say control over your own body is pretty important. Wouldn't you?
You do realise that Trump's acolytes blocked border bill legislation, don't you?
Bass, do you know what the 'sunk cost fallacy' is? Right now, there is nothing that Trump could do that would stop you supporting him. The difference between MAGA cultists and those 'leftists' is, is that 'leftists' can be, and (not always) tend to be objectyive.

Still better than Trump’s guaranteed inflationary policies.

Why is 45 reversing his stance on it if it is not an election winning issue? He tweeted about it yesterday.

It ,It not the business of the government to run businesses, Trump ought to explain his racist, rapist,fraud policies to America
bass4funk
He does, if you bothered to look.
CUT COSTS BY ELIMINATING REGULATION, BOOSTING ENERGY INDEPENDENCE
END TAX ON TIPS & SOCIAL SECURITY
EXTEND 2017 TAX CUTS AND JOBS ACT AND LOWER THE CORPORATE TAX RATE FROM 21% TO 15%
INCREASE TARIFFS, POSSIBLY AS HIGH AS 20% - AND 60% ON CHINESE IMPORTS
That’s just the tip, a lot more.

No, she’s not.

Harris didn’t even go to the border when she was appointed border czar, yeah, don’t go there. Lol
That’s not even in the top 3 concerning issues for most Americans, but yeah, let Harris drum all day about abortion and Trump will go on about the economy and immigration.

The Democrat US presidential campaign, Kamala Harris, Tim Walz both empty vessels, devoid pf policy agenda, scripted political “voice box” propaganda vehicles.
Little on substance, zero political innovation, shallow hollow pledges/promise that never materialised/implemented when the opportunity was desperately needed over the past ¾ years.
I have just returned from New York, I yearned for my first trip to the US/big apple to have been a sightseeing extravaganza. Sadly, this was not the case.
The short last minute request from three of our financial intuitional customers, to construct a team to “war game” a solution-based strategy in the event of a major US recession.
Our team were catapulted through Airport Immigration/customs by a prearranged CBP's Trusted Traveller programme.
For the last two weeks, day after day analysing data. US Election private polling, US economic Federal reserve interest rate monetary policy. A programme to offshore “back office” functions.
The fact the Kamala Harris, Tim Walz have refused to provide clear future economic policy or detail any “one on one “media strategy template.
Bluntly stated to quote National Review
Neither one has done a single interview or press conference — no sit-down with 60 Minutes, no meeting with a newspaper editorial board, no Sunday shows. No interviews with local network television affiliates in swing states. Not even an on-the-record chat with Walz’s hometown papers or radio stations.
One senior executive shockingly scathingly referred to Harris as…
Cackling Kammy keffiyeh the cowering communist.

Harris is winning on the economy and JD Vance is unwilling to go into Trump’s deportation plans and whether they would break up families.
Trump is now trying to flip on reproductive health, but, as the guy who got Roe vs Wade overturned, lacks credibility.

DEFCON 1 Ketchup Alert!
Preliminary ratings for the Democratic National Convention show Kamala Harris’s keynote speech had 22% more viewers than Donald Trump’s address last month.
Some 15 million people tuned into Harris’s 45-minute speech, according to the combined ratings of seven major networks shared by Michael Mulvihill, president of insights and analytics for the Fox Corporation.
Meanwhile, Trump’s 90-minute, rambling keynote address, had 12.3 million viewers.

Hating Trump, she has not policies essentially

There is enthusiasm on both sides
The progressive and socialist side absolutely.
Well, RFK took her momentum off the front page after a 4 day honeymoon abortion/Trump hating convention, not good at a good thing at all.

About a month ago almost all left-leaning newsrooms and publications wanted Kamala to step aside. She was a lame-duck VP. She was anointed to keep the money in the coffers and not to rock the boat with the donors. Now, like magic, she is the darling of the press and can do no wrong, yet still, most Americans have no idea who she is and what her positions are on policy. the playbook must be to win, then figure it out later. The problem with that is that 70 days is an eternity in politics.
Bob Fosse
Even if this were true she is still winning. Ahead in polls and donations.
I hope this helps

I am trying to understand as I have no idea what she stands for except the woman's right to choose.

They will talk about everything except policy.

They have to say that, winning even if they are losing.

Well, I'm not surprised by the surge in donations for Harris. The contrast is so glaring. Trump and the message given by the GOP at the RNC was all doom and gloom. Politicians whining they are not getting what they need or deserve, and even bullying and disparaging outward expressions of joy and love shown by Democrats. People are tired of the MAGA's divisiveness and phony attitudes (Did anyone see JD Vance's attempt at casual conversation in a donut shop?). Everyone knows now that Trump is in this thing for himself, to stay out of jail, and to line his own pockets as much as he can (as evidenced by him trying to sell shoes advertising him getting shot at).
dagon
This is a better sign than the campaign donation haul.
I was initially a naive and hopeful volunteer for the Obama campaign and there is a similar energy with Harris.
Harris is coming across as even more relatable to a large swath of Americans and her policies are also pointing to a shift in DNC neo-liberal boilerplate. She is looking to be a stronger and stronger candidate, and there is not much time left.

American electable public servants were based on "Popularity", an instant one. Not by their deeds nor achievements. People like Donald Trump can be elected as POTUS, the first time(2016)was excusable because he was a celebrity but he is going to be re-elected this year really puzzled me, he ran a coup'de'tat in 2021 and he won't rule it out if he considering the thing is unfair. Harris is equally unelectable, she knows nothing in international politics, good luck Harris your country is in dire danger !

So much for the honeymoon period. The momentum is showing no signs of slowing…
