    Yes, but I think what you want to see is not just broad-level vision but more specific details. Right now, her campaign strategy mostly focusing on introducing Kamala Harris (and Tim Walz) and telling their stories (along with their high level vision), which makes sense since they are relatively new compared to Trump. My guess is she will eventually provide more details, but she has the advantage of not having any solidly held positions and will be able to craft her platform to her advantage.

    Lol why?

    You are never going to vote for her so you are just concern trolling. She has momentum and why wouldn’t she let Trump and Vance keep opening their mouths which is lowering their numbers?

    Rumor is Donald Trump demanded to use Epstein’s jet after his was out of service because he knew he could fit in the bathroom.

    You think they're messing up, but they're not.

    They're only pissing off the people who were never going to vote for them anyway.

    The DNC is next week, everything will likely drop between then and debate #1 on Sept 10th.

    That leaves plenty of time for Republicans to b**** and moan and say it's the next coming of Stalin between then and election day, so be patient.

    In the meantime they're just enjoying the positive press and honeymoon period while Trump and Vance trip all over their own dicks.

    It's mostly concern trolling from people who have feeds promoting this as a yuge issue.

    Correct. They did the same thing with Obama. The empty but popular slogans of "hope" and "change" drove them absolutely ****ing bonkers.

    They're so mad that they're being deprived of oxygen right now.

    Did anyone tell Trump that he had a campaign website with policy positions? I suspect not.

    Kamala being the incumbent not incumbent and bypassing the primary process means she can double dip in ambiguity while having honeymoon vibes for another good month.

    What they have in the news cycle is Couch Surfer Jaydee is attacking a 24 yr old national guardsman of stolen valor, and him crying so hard about meanies on the internet that his eyeliner's running.

    I get the logic behind playing it safe, but "waiting it out" rarely works in presidential campaigns. look at Clinton in 16, Romney in 12, Dukakis in 88, etc. they all avoided the spotlight and it backfired. Voters expect and need transparency, so hiding just makes candidates look weak.

    Contrast that with Obama in 08 or Trump in 16 and you'll see they stayed engaged, dominated the convo, and built momentum. Harris needs to do the same, or she might lose independents. If she can't handle interviews now, she'll struggle even more when the debates hit.

    it was obvious biden was not going to win, so perhaps kamala is just the hail mary as Dems regroup for 2028. just my theory.

    It seems like you are buttering yourself up to believe the election is rigged if Kamala wins with your rhetoric like saying her candidacy is a Hail Mary.


    Donald Trump engaging in interviews is bad for Donald Trump. That's where he goes on his rants where he does things like b**** about Rosie O'Donnell when being asked about marginal tax rates.

    It's just a theory I have because Biden sure as hell wasn't going to do it. if she wins, then she wins. not sure why you're talking about rigging elections

    Your rhetoric in believing that Harris has a hail Mary chance is to me at least signalling that you are convincing yourself that the election is rigged if she wins.

    Trump is a pathological liar! Every single time he speaks it's just lies. The guy is disgusting.

    Fact check: Trump made at least 20 false claims in his conversation with Elon Musk

    https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/13/politics/fact-check-trump-musk-20-false-claims/index.html

    Just one of the many lies.....

    Trump claimed, “Our crime rate’s going through the roof.”


    Facts First: Trump’s claim is false. Both violent crime and property crime dropped significantly in 2023 and in the first quarter of 2024. He wants you to believe murders are skyrocketing, but that's just fear mongering and lies.

    Homicides throughout the U.S. decreased by 26.4% overall in the first quarter of 2024, according to the FBI data, which was released on June 10. Violent crimes overall — including rapes, aggravated assaults and robberies — dropped by more than 15% in that span.

    Here's an undisputed fact for ya....

    Under Trump's watch homicides increased by 30% from 2019 to 2020, the largest single-year increase since 1960.

    Nah it seems like you forgot 2008. Obama was nothing like Kamala. he was on late night TV, primetime sunday night news, multiple press conferences, Q&A town halls, several public events, rallies on top of all that, etc. Obama's campaign was very open to the media. Republicans just used those lines in their "Obama-cult" attacks, similar to what Democrats do now with their "Trump-cult" attacks. also you forget Obama's website which had several policy positions on there.

    what Harris is doing is not one winning presidential campaigns typically do. last one who did it was Bush '04 but lucky for him he was going up against Kerry who wasn't a good candidate, the economy was generally pretty good in most places and booming in others, and there was an ongoing war.
