Harris is moving radio ad money out of Wisconsin and putting into rap/hip hop stations in Philadelphia. This is the Democrat woman-of-color candidate who figures she needs to shore up her support among African-American voters in Philly. Make of that what you will. I say it is triage. I think her campaign has now settled on MI, PA and NC as her one and only path. Any one of those 3 goes to Trump, and it is over, presuming that Trump is ok in WI (which he must be if Harris is conceding the State) as well as AZ, NV, GA. If so and she gets all 3 she’s at 276. This is what is known in the betting world as “a long shot”.
But I really view this as an attempt to save downballot. Democrats might have thought a month ago they had a chance to get Harris past 270 but that’s fading and so her campaign is now in default mode – a mode she’s probably not even aware of: she was brought in to save the House and Senate (with the Senate looking forlorn so now its really about trying to get a House majority or at least a narrow enough minority that the Dems can essentially call the House shots).
Side note: something to consider is that her campaign says she’s raised a billion dollars since she got in. Where’s the money? If she raised that much she’s got enough for both Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. There wouldn’t be a need to shift resources.
Unless that number was fake…and/or people who pledged big bucks are now looking at internals and pulling the plug.
All in all, it looks good for Trump. If this works – that is, the Trump campaign strategy, it’ll rewrite the book on how the GOP wins nationally. If it doesn’t work then the nation will collapse. So, no pressure, guys!
After hearing clips of recent Harris interviews, I can see why she was reluctant to do interviews. She’s her own worst enemy. She’s presented herself as an agent of change, but when asked by Sonny Hostin on The View what Biden policies she’d change, she relied she couldn’t think of any. The more she talks, the fewer votes she gets.
What I don’t understand is her refusal to admit to the problem and try to correct it. It seems that if she can accept the problem she can work with people to address it, at least to some degree. It’s like extreme narcissism, the conviction that she is just naturally so amazingly special she doesn’t have to study issues or policies, doesn’t have to work to prepare, and can just appear and be admired.
That might be the key here – she is, after all, the child of privilege. You can easily see how she was Mommy’s Special Girl. And she just coasted along…family wealth paving the way and then one person after another fostering her career so she never had to work to achieve anything. By now, pushing 60, she probably believes her own press releases.
I’m thinking Bonk has the Kamala knee pad set. It’s fun watching Democrats make excuses for, and cover up for, the dumbest candidate ever to run for POTUS.
She has had 70+ days to come up with an answer to “how are you different than Joe Biden”, and she has yet to articulate an intelligent answer. Suggesting to me that she is not at all a policy wonk, simply an empty vessel to smile and speak in platitudes, but this is ultimately what the deep state wants. And Obama does a rally for her in PA and she doesn’t even show up???? I think the truth behind the scenes is that all of these Democrats hate each other … Biden’s, Clinton’s, Obama’s and all their “people” despise each other. It’s fun to watch.
The more she talks, the fewer votes she gets.
Oh, if only that were the case! The problems are that (1) most voters have no idea how she talks because their only sources of what they think is information are arms of the DNC promoting Harris and covering up her incompetence and stupidity, and (2) they will vote D no matter who is on the ticket.
Even if a few suburban women see her being stupid on The View, for example, it is not likely to affect their voting because she is still Not Trump, and she is still a woman, and she is still black(ish) and she will still promise to help them kill their inconvenient babies and they don’t vote on competence or qualifications.
To this I would add, “and would also vote for Kamala Harris”
We can NEVER forget how we were treated by Democrats during Covid and following the 2020 election. America needs to make sure people like that, are never given power again

I’ve often observed that nothing gets peoples’ attention like being sued. I think every person or entity that forced this drug on people should be held accountable, starting at the top. If we can dump billions of dollars into foreign nations, billions more into providing for people who entered the country illegally, then we can send a few billion to those injured for life because of the reckless (and I believe illegal) actions of our government and those who bent the knee to its edicts.
There was simply no legal, Constitutional, foundation for a man sitting at a desk in the Oval Office signing a statement forcing people to inject an experimental drug. Aside from the drug itself, the very action of making it a condition of employment was always a gross violation of our rights.
IT WAS AN EXPERIMENTAL DRUG. The Nuremburg Trials gave us a law against forcing people to take experimental drugs without full disclosure and approval. Nothing in our Constitution provides for a presidential edict stripping people of basic rights with actions that also expose them to harm.
This does not even address the role the government played in interfering with care that was proved to be effective in dealing with the virus. The persecution of doctors trying to treat sick people because it was politically expedient to demonize the treatments is and was unconscionable in and of itself, but when this is added to the tyranny of then forcing people to take an untested drug it goes beyond the scope of any other crime committed by the Left in this country.
Then there is the fact that the same government that was using lawfare to block effective treatments and punish doctors using them while forcing people to take a drug the government decided they had to take was also funneling billions of dollars to the drug companies making the drugs the government was forcing on the public. If this had been the plot of a movie a few years ago it would have been dismissed as too crazy, too unbelievable. But this was our reality for four years under Democrat rule.
Who knew that Satan could sow such discord??

If Harris ends up losing, this is going to be a major factor:
and this:
and this:
Does say it all – they just don’t care about us. And that’s on a good day – other days, they actively hate us.
The Daily Signal has an article about a woman who was invited to speak at the Naval Academy whose invitation was either rescinded or just postponed because of the political nature of her intended speech. The article describes her:
This is basically the same hyperbole we see from other Trump haters, and it is equally lacking in actual content. It is nothing more than snarling about personal illusions of Trump that are not then explained by examples of supporting behavior. In other words, it is all Crystal Ball stuff, attributions of motives based on how someone FEELS about Trump.
There is not a single example of Trump ever attacking the military. There are multiple examples of him supporting the military, praising the military, advocating for strengthening the military, but not a single attack. Yet this theme recurs in fever swamp rhetoric about him. There is whining about his “authoritarian character” yet nothing to indicate anything more than strength and ability to make decisions and lead. The main freakout about Trump being “authoritarian” is based on the affrontery of his boldness in immediately rescinding most of the extra-Constitutional edicts of his predecessor, who openly wished he had the total dictatorial powers of the leader of China and who bragged that he had “the power of the phone and pen” when it came to writing Executive Orders that then took on the power of actual law. Naturally, none of this angst considers the fact that it was the Obama Executive Orders themselves that constituted a dictatorial approach to the presidency, and that rescinding them was a step toward reinstating actual Constitutional governance.
There is the typical attribution of feelings that the Left depends on to define its opposition, knowing that its uncritical base is likely to just accept this projection of unstated, unproven, private thought as real and accurate analysis of how Trump “really feels” and “really thinks”. The only way to actually identify a “desire” is to examine acts that indicate motive, and there are no acts whatsoever by Trump related to damaging, inhibiting or to any degree in any form destroying “democratic values and ideals”—a phrase that is, in and of itself, vague and nonspecific. Just what ARE “democratic values”? Are they values based on what is essentially mob rule, where a minority has no voice as the majority is in charge? (Because that is democracy.) What are “democratic ideals”? Same question. Is a “democratic ideal” one of being part of a majority and therefore possessing control over the minority?
Why don’t people question these superficially noble-sounding phrases to figure out what they really mean? The phrase “democratic values and ideals” is mere jibber-jabber, a few words linked in a way to try to convey something important but essentially meaningless.
And then there is the assertion that Trump exhibits “loyalty to autocrats”. Which “autocrats” and in what way is this alleged “loyalty” shown? Professional and diplomatic courtesy to other national leaders is hardly a legitimate basis for a rant about “loyalty to autocrats” yet this is what the Left uses in its appeal to the intellectually lazy and the emotionally-driven base it counts on. They can’t name an “autocrat” who benefited from “loyalty” from Trump, yet this will not stop them from screeching it in outrage, and it won’t stop the low-info Lefty from sucking it up and making it part of his own perception. (It’s on the same level as casper obediently parroting “Trump doesn’t care about the Constitution”.)
It’s one thing to have this kind of hyperemotional half-witted hysteria published all over the internet—it is quite another to realize that the administrators of the Naval Academy lack the intellect, or will, to recognize it for what it is. If “the military” wants respect from the nation, not to mention its next Commander in Chief, it really needs to stop acting like giddy schoolgirls swooning over empty, meaningless, appeals to emotion that are totally lacking in fact or even analytical thought.
During the debate with Harris the moderators and Harris jumped on Trump’s statement that he has some ideas for a plan about healthcare – their point was that you have to have a plan all set! Except, of course, nobody can. When Harris says things like “we’ll build 3 million homes” the MSM describes that as “Harris’ plan”…but, its not. Its an aspiration…and we need to know who is building them? Where? What type of housing? Who can access it? Under what conditions? And once you get all that squared away: can legislation be passed in Congress that will pass Constitutional muster given that a host of Leftwing groups and probably some of the Housing industry will rise up to challenge it in court for a variety of reasons.
Trump actually gave the only possible sane answer: Obamacare is a mess, overall US healthcare is a mess…and we’re going to have to come together at the table and work out the best way to fix the mess…and I’ve got some ideas on that.
They never gave him a chance to expound what concepts he’s bringing to the table because they were too busy pretending that because he didn’t have a set plan – which wouldn’t even be a set plan – he had nothing to say.
That is the fundamental stupidity of our times…and it is this stupidity, more than anything else, that underpins hatred of Trump…they’re just very dumb people who believe that Trump is a threat to them, personally.
I think that many if not most of these empty-headed knee-jerk responses, in pathetic subservience to the narratives fed to them by their Leftist masters, are from people who have never had positions in life that demanded analysis of serious problems, or solutions to those problems. Lower-level bureaucrats, teachers, lower-level administrators, people without decision-making authority or experience, find the argument that someone has not claimed to have a full-blown detailed plan in place to be compelling.
While some problem-solvers and decision-makers can also be slaves to Identity Politics and the powers of emotional control over objectivity, I think most of these people understand that complex problems demand complex responses, and unlike Leftism, one size does not fit all. Obamacare’s appeal was to these unchallenged people, who found it quite reasonable to think that the complex array of problems surrounding affordable health care could be “solved” by merely passing a law saying the government would “pay for health care”. They were so uncritical of the rhetoric that controlled them that they remained (and still remain) totally ignorant of the fact that Obamacare had absolutely nothing to do with health care or even “paying for health care” but was purely an accounting system in which the government (that is to say, taxpayers) would interfere in and control contractual agreements with companies who pay health care providers.
Unfortunately, these low-info voters can decide who runs the country, while remaining oblivious to the nature of the government system they are enabling, because they cannot/will not see beneath the superficial word games and semantic manipulation that fool them every time.
Howard Stern interviewed the Cackle the other day and said that he would vote for her, but also said he would vote for the wall if that was his only other option to Trump. And Kamala was NOT offended by that. Stern basically said that she is as interesting and effective as a wall … and she smiled.
That’s the level of stupidity we are dealing with in this country. 99% of our problems are due to stupidity and DEI, and those two are not mutually exclusive.
And if pressed, Stern’s reasons for voting against Trump would be as shallow, as specious, as downright silly as that Naval Academy speaker’s, as casper’s, as any of the Identity Politics lemmings who violate their most sacred duty as citizens—-that of choosing the best administers of Constitutional governance—-because they are so blinded by ignorance and petty emotion.
And anyone who would be swayed by the political opinion of a low-class bottom feeder like Stern is self-identifying as a low-class bottom feeder.
Stupidity and DEI are not only not mutually exclusive, they are mutually dependent.
Always good to keep in mind that Stern has never been other than a Ruling Class toady. One has to think about who he attacked when he was popular. It wasn’t the Liberal Establishment which has dominated American life since the 1930s. No: he mocked faith and family. Because that is what the Liberal Establishment told him to attack…and, of course, they are safe to attack. He’d never risk his job – his place in the Establishment – by attacking what the Establishment wanted destroyed.
What he did for America was very much what Monty Python did for the UK – ridicule what made the country great as the Liberal Establishment set about changing the rules so that a new sort of society can be created. It was all nice and funny to ridicule the Royal Army…but that same Army was what kept Britain alive in WWII…so, maybe show a little respect for it. Nothing doing – it was all just ridicule and haw haw haw look at the stupid Colonel Blimp and, hey, why are there now Muslims stabbing people in the streets?
Stern is just following orders, as he’s always done and will always do.
I can’t even come close to comparing the foul mouthed foul minded misogynistic porn-obsessed crudity of Howard Stern with the clever and endearing humor of Monty Python. While Monty Python did take digs at the British Establishment it was never vicious or crude and the elements of the British Establishment that were targeted were actually excellent targets. And MP’s targets were sometimes the sacred cows of the Left, like the skit about the man wishing he could be a woman.
I grant that – but on the back side of it, in an understated way, they did attack the foundations of the UK…making fun of the absurdities of, say, military life is all well and good…but they were the heirs of Lytton Strachey and his horrific book, Eminent Victorians…which basically made fun of the entire Victorian Era and made out its principle people to be ridiculous. Strachey was a rich boy who never did anything but write complaints about people who did things – so, sort of the archetype of the modern Liberal. John Cleese was the son of prosperous middle class parents who went straight from school to entertainment…not exactly the sort of experience which would give him the full insight on what military absurdity really is (if he had served, the defending yourself from a banana would have been more along the lines of furiously teaching soldiers how to hurry up and wait).
But MP did so much more than make fun of the military—and even then they targeted the pompous popinjays who were ripe for ridicule. They did dead parrots and middle class stuffiness and I never sensed malice in any of their skits. I wouldn’t say they ATTACKED “the foundations of the UK” as much as they poked loving fun at the quirks and oddities that, yes, are a part of that foundation.
Stern, on the other hand, reeked of malice and sheer nastiness, whether that nastiness took the form of malevolence or salaciousness.
