Re: Presidential Race 2024

So, I get the feeling Harris is going to blow her VP pick. She needs the Never Trumpers, center Independents and conservative independents (who like the Nevers oppose Trump) to win and I get the feeling she is going to pick a progressive as her pick (ie Tim Walz). This would be a slap in the face of that group and I for one will change my vote from stopping Trump to just sitting out (and I won't be the only one). IF she picks a progressive what does she gain? - Nothing but loses the center. If she picks a moderate, what does she gain? - the Center and loses nothing.

In this election the good/bad thing that about living in Maryland is it really doesn't matter and I don't have to vote for Trump, I don't have to vote for Harris - obviously Harris is going to get the Maryland electors. Let the rest of the country hash it out.

Re: Presidential Race 2024

I guess Harris doesn't need my vote. IMO she just blew her election chances.

I think she solidified her base. She didn't do anything to get moderates but Trump doesn't do anything to get moderates either so we're just kind of the forgotten caste. As the two parties go more and more extreme. I still think her base beats Trump's base.

I think she did a lot more then that and yes she did appease many moderates. He wants to protect the Second Amendment but wants better gun laws , he wants to protect Woman's rights, a former Teacher and Football Coach and a Father, what an asshole.






He is no Kerri Lake!!

Re: Presidential Race 2024

Donald Trump today:

What are the chances that Crooked Joe Biden,
the WORST President in the history of the U.S.,
whose Presidency was Unconstitutionally
STOLEN from him by Kamabla, Barrack
HUSSEIN Obama, Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Shifty
Adam Schiff, Cryin' Chuck Schumer, and others
on the Lunatic Left, CRASHES the Democrat
National Convention and tries to take back the
Nomination, beginning with challenging me to
another DEBATE. He feels that he made a
historically tragic mistake by handing over the
U.S. Presidency, a COUP, to the people in the
World he most hates, and he wants it back,
NOW!!




The man is a mental midget , right chico?!

Quite a bit of both Biden's and Harris's support came from people like me who were voting against Trump (which likely made up about 30% of her support) Our votes were very reluctant for her as it was and by picking another progressive (and a populist one at that) it was essentially a slap in the face to independents and the Never Trump/GOP conservatives that made up that group. She basically told us to go pound sand and she doesn't need our votes. In my office alone 2 that would have voted for her if she picked Kelley (especially Kelley), Shapiro or any moderate told me they are now going to vote for Trump and she lost my vote as well (I will sit out). As you posted she's making a move thinking all she needs is her base. She read the audience wrong the anti-Trump vote was more important than her base support and now she will likely lose. Lets see what the polls say in 2 weeks.

I do not understand how somebody could go from voting for Kamala Harris and then she makes a VP pick that is in line with her views and you switch to Trump. Sitting out I understand, switching to Trump - no because they're two diametrically opposed opponents. In short I don't believe you're too colleagues we're going to vote for Kamala they were probably just saying that but we're going to vote for Trump no matter what. Of course I don't understand how anyone is voting for Trump or Harris at this point so I'm just stuck in the middle with no one to vote for or to represent me.

I think they were hoping (praying) she wouldn't go full bore Progressive if she won, but by picking Walz she is demonstrating she is going to go full bore progressive which for those two (and me) killed our long shot hopes. (Plus for one of them he really liked Kelley - he is our Senator).

Re: Presidential Race 2024

A requirement to be a democrat voter is to a habitual, degenerate liar. If you expect a democrat to be politically honest, you're naive or stupid.

It's definitely an interesting pick to say the least. I feel like if she had picked Shapiro she probably wins somewhat comfortably in November. Especially if she never puts herself in a position where she has answer a question about her past or her plans for the future.

It's probably the worst choice for her chances, right? Does adding him to the ticket entice the moderates or the independents? I don't think so. Those 'lefter' than left are in the bag, though... but they already were. It's just so curious to me.

They are calling him Tampon Tim... SMH

There isn't a more self-loathing group of humans on earth than a liberal jew in the U.S. Shapiro sold out God for his own gain, but didn't actually gain anything, then had to promote Walz in his own home state.
