    I'm assuming people who want Trump president fear Kamala as her entering the presidential race makes his electoral path more difficult.

    I think people like you fear that definitely and it shows

    There is no fear, like none... I've lost interest in the election because its pretty much over... Yeah, the mainstream media will push Harris as hard as possible.. Yeah she is going to have some big rallies and celebrities endorse her and things will appear really close in the polls.... With that said, she is going to lose easily. Anyone who thinks Trump is scared is just wishful thinking...

    Are you priming yourself to believe the election is rigged if Trump loses? I acknowledge the fact that there's a good chance Trump might win the election. But it seems to be not even a possibility for you that Harris Wins. So I think you are just priming yourself here to just deny election results.

    I don't mind her changing positions, it happens all of the time. She is running for President so I am curious as to where she stands.

    What natural life experiences might a person experience to change their opinion that someone is Hitler like to someone being a great, hopeful president of the United States?

    It does it make it more difficult. The path for Biden was very difficult and the lefts' fear showed as well. I don't anticipate the Republican party pulling the candidate due to the more difficult path.

    We all want to win. I am sure deep down you have a fear that Jalen won't pan out. Fear is not necessarily a bad thing.

    If Trump were to lose I hope he accepts it and we move forward, personally I would hate excuses and accusations. After years of it its tiring. I also don't care as much if Trump loses because I still dislike his VP pick and dislike a lot of Trump's rhetoric. Still, it is highly likely Trump wins.... And by highly likely, I mean its almost in the bag... Does Harris have a shot? Sure, but she is a terrible candidate. She would have never been a presidential candidate had Biden not chosen her as VP..... She is attached to every Biden disaster in the past 3 years but for some reason Democrats think that being a women and black ish gives them an upper hand. It doesn't work with Disney and it won't work for the presidency. She actually needs to be competent to beat Trump, she is running and will continue to run on being the polar opposite of Trump but the people in this country are tired of being the opposite of Trump because it flat out doesn't work. Its over bro..... Nice try thou...

    "her body, her choice" ..... rah, rah, rah !!!

    She *chose* the deadbeat gangbanger.

    But I get your drift.... it's never the woman's fault and women can never do wrong.

    We know which gender is more likely to lie.

    Black women's attitude is 3x worst than white women's.

    Do you give gangbangers and drug addict men the same grace as you do women who prostitute??

    OF COURSE NOT

    Nobody forces most women who do sex work to do sex work.

    The Memes Have Been Great. Now Kamala Harris Needs to Talk About This.

    https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/what-kamala-harris-needs-to-talk-about-to-win-the-race.html

    excerpt:

    Democrats tend to lose whenever they forget that they are, first and foremost, the party of working American families. Since the days when FDR won four consecutive presidential races, voters have looked to the Dems to fight for economic growth, which brings jobs and opportunity; provide a safety net to protect the unlucky from disaster; and regulate the marketplace to keep cheaters, predators, and monopolists at bay.

    Somewhere along the way, Democrats lost the plotline: Gallup polls show that Americans generally trust Republicans to do a better job of managing the economy, currently by a margin of 53 to 39 percent. Successful Democrats like Bill Clinton and Barack Obama — the only two leaders of their party to win reelection since FDR — made it happen by focusing like a laser on the economy. In 1992, on the way to helping Bill Clinton break three terms of Reagan-Bush dominance, campaign manager James Carville famously distilled the candidate’s winning message into a quirky but memorable haiku:

    Change versus no change
    The economy, stupid
    Don’t forget seniors

    ***
    There are lots of issues at play in these closing weeks of the campaign, from the wars in the Middle East and Europe to the surge of migrants at the border and the future of democracy itself. But while juggling those concerns, Harris has to avoid the distraction of meme wars and juvenile name calling. Instead, she should stay laser focused on a proven issue on which she and Democrats can win.

    The economy, stupid.

    It frustrates me that Democrats buy into the right-wing framing of the border to score political points. I think it's a bad long-term plan. Maybe good for electoral politics for this current political cycle because America has been brainwashed with anti-migrant rhetoric constantly for the past half decade.

    The right wing has won in terms of border rhetoric and migrant rhetoric. You can tell by how moderate Democrats have to buy into right wing framing of the border.
