Kamala Harris

Donald Trump’s Flailing Campaign

admin 15 Comments

As the campaign of Democrats Kamala Harris and Tim Walz draws large crowds at rallies, and raises massive amounts of funds and volunteers for the battle ahead, Republicans Donald Trump and JD Vance are flailing in their campaign.

Donald Trump has made many blunders, including:

His selection of JD Vance as his Vice Presidential running mate.

Racist attacks against Kamala Harris, and his disgraceful performance at the National Association of Black Journalists gathering in Atlanta, particularly against ABC News correspondent Rachel Scott.

His bragging about ending abortion rights, through his gaining the end of Roe V Wade by his Supreme Court appointments.

His involvement and connection with the extremist right wing Project 2025, and Vance’s authorship of the Introduction to the 922 page document.

His attack on fellow Republican, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, for having refused to back his attempt to interfere with the election results in the Presidential Election of 2020.

His praise of Russian leader Vladimir Putin for making the deal for release of Americans wrongfully held, rather than praising Joe Biden and the US Government for bringing home those individuals.

The momentum is definitely toward the Democrats at this point, with some public opinion polls showing Kamala Harris ahead of Donald Trump for the first time.

Harris-Walz Ticket On Offense Before Large Crowds!

admin 5 Comments

There was a sense of electricity and destiny in the massive crowd of 14,000 that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz spoke before yesterday evening in Philadelphia.

And today, in Wisconsin, in very hot weather in Eau Claire, before a crowd in a rural part of that Midwestern state, 12,000 showed up, with the sense of destiny continuing.

Donald Trump and JD Vance are unable to draw crowds anywhere near these sizes at Republican rallies, and it is driving Trump crazy!

It seems clear that the Harris-Walz ticket has gained an energy that was lacking when President Joe Biden was still running for another term.

And the more the nation learns about Tim Walz—the teacher, the coach, the National Guardsman, the Congressman, and the Governor–the more it inspires the Democratic Party to a sense of optimism and confidence about the upcoming Presidential Election of 2024!

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz Surprise VP Choice, But Excellent Selection!

admin 21 Comments

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is a surprise Vice Presidential choice for Kamala Harris, but is an excellent addition to the ticket, and will know how to go after the jugular vein of both Donald Trump and JD Vance.

Tim Walz is in the Democratic progressive tradition and heritage of Hubert Humphrey, Walter Mondale, Eugene McCarthy, Paul Wellstone, Al Franken, and Amy Klobuchar.

Walz will help insure electoral support from next door Michigan and Wisconsin, attract rural and small town American support in the Midwest, and has a exceptional record of accomplishment as Minnesota Governor for the past six years, after serving in the House of Representatives for twelve years from 2007-2019.

Walz was an educator and football coach after serving in the National Guard, and is proud of his progressive agenda in Minnesota, and will know how to take the fight against the right wing Republicans to the nation at large.

Walz is a genuine and decent human being, unlike the impression that JD Vance and Donald Trump give in public image!

Many “Republicans Against Trump” Are Starting To Move Toward Open Support Of Kamala Harris!

admin 10 Comments

An active and engaged group that is gaining notice in the Presidential campaign of 2024 are those known as “Republicans Against Trump”, which includes many former Trump administration Cabinet members, and many in the intelligence, defense,state and justice department communities.

And now, former elected officials are openly endorsing and announcing they will vote for Kamala Harris in November.

So far, it includes Geoff Duncan, former Georgia Lieutenant Governor; former Virginia Representative Denver Riggleman; and former Illinois Congressman Adam Kinzinger, who was a crucial member of the January 6 committee that investigated the attack on the US Capitol.

And the multitude of others who are against Trump are seen, in many cases, likely to announce eventually that they will vote for Harris.

They would say that it was urgent to do so, while reserving right to be critical of government policies in the future under a President Harris.

Kamala Harris Utilizing Barack Obama Team In Her Presidential Campaign

admin Leave a comment

Kamala Harris is utilizing the people who helped Barack Obama in his election campaign in 2008, and helped him in his Presidency.

This includes David Plouffe, Stephanie Cutter, Mitch Stewart, and David Binder, and with Jennifer Palmieri becoming an adviser to Harris’s husband, Douglas Emhoff, who would become “First Gentleman”, if his wife is elected President.

Additionally, some staff who worked in the Hillary Clinton Presidential campaign in 2016 will join the team in an effort to bolster the Harris Presidential effort.

These are promising steps forward in the Harris Presidential campaign!

Donald Trump Implodes At Black Journalists’ Gathering In Chicago

admin 12 Comments

Donald Trump shocked the National Association of Black Journalists Convention in Chicago yesterday, with his unhinged behavior towards the three black women journalists who questioned him about his stands on race, and on his Vice Presidential runningmate, JD Vance.

Trump was nasty and abusive in his utterances about Kamala Harris, accusing her of claiming to be Black when he asserted, wrongfully, that all along, she identified as Asian Indian in ethnicity.

The concept of Harris being “mixed race” is not something that should cause controversy, as 10.2 percent of the population in the 2020 Census self-identified as such.

That has nothing to do with Harris’s qualifications to be President, but once again, Trump played the “race card”, as he always has done for many years.

Supposedly, Trump was trying to gain Black support for his Presidential candidacy, but his outragous behavior does not promote such gains.

Trump’s claim to be the best President for Black Americans since Abraham Lincoln is preposterous, ridulous, and insulting!

It is clear that Donald Trump is terrified of the growing support for Kamala Harris, and is unable to figure out how to attack her, except by personal and racist insults.

His racism and misogyny are beyond the pale, and it makes one wonder why anyone with any intelligence would still support him for President!

Public Opinion Polls Show Surge Toward Kamala Harris!

admin 7 Comments

In just ten days since Joe Biden withdrew and Kamala Harris entered the Democratic Presidential race, public opinion polls show a great surge to Harris in all of the “swing states”.

The seven “swing states” include:

Pennsylvania
Michigan
Wisconsin
Arizona
Georgia
Nevada
North Carolina

All seven show Harris ahead of where Biden was, and leading Donald Trump or within the “margin of error”.

Fundraising has been massive, and Harris had a raucous crowd of 10,000 in Atlanta on Tuesday evening.

And for those who did not realize it: Kamala Harris is quite charismatic and dynamic as a speaker, and her smile and optimism ring true, demonstrating that she has been underrated, just like Joe Biden was in 2020!

Should Kamala Harris Go “Radical”, Or Stay Safe In VP Selection?

admin 37 Comments

With the controversial JD Vance making waves in a negative way, and undermining Donald Trump, the question arises, with about a week until the decision on the Vice Presidential nominee for Kamala Harris, whether Harris should go “radical”, or stay safe in her selection.

If Harris were to choose to go “radical”, then Gretchen Whitmer, Governor of Michigan or Pete Buttigieg, Secretary of Transportation, will be selected, as choosing a woman or a gay male would be seen as “radical”.

A less “radical choice” would be Josh Shapiro, Governor of Pennsylvania, or JB Pritzker, Governor of Illinois, as both are Jewish, and already with a potential Jewish First Gentleman Douglas Emhoff.

If Harris chooses to go traditionally, then the choice would be among Roy Cooper, Governor of North Carolina; Andy Beshear, Governor of Kentucky; Tim Walz, Governor of Minnesota; or Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona.

There is also the issue of age, as Kelly, Walz, and Cooper are older than Harris, and Pritzker is only months younger, while Buttigieg, Beshear, Shapiro, and Whitmer are much younger, so any of them could be Presidential material after serving as VP under Harris.

Republican Personal Attacks On Kamala Harris Backfiring!

admin 1 Comment

Donald Trump and the entire Republican Party are utilizing personal attacks on Kamala Harris, as they did on Barack Obama in 2008 and throughout his Presidency.

It is totally disgusting that Republicans mispronounce her name; say she is a “DEI” candidate; and ridicule the fact that she laughs heartily.

This is backfiring, as already, it is clear that it is alienating large numbers of women; drawing growing support of minorities who were not enthusiastic about Joe Biden running for reelection;and exciting younger voters who might have tuned out, due to “two old guys” competing in a second round running for President.

Instead, now that Donald Trump is the lone “old guy” in the Presidential race, suddenly the enthusiasm that Trump thought he had built up by picking Ohio Senator JD Vance as his running mate, has disintegrated with Vance’s attack on what he calls “cat ladies” who remain single and have no “skin in the game” of America’s future, an outrageous utterance!

The momentum of this Presidential race is changing rapidly in favor of Kamala Harris, as she aims to be the first mixed race woman President, another step forward after Barack Obama became the first African American President!

Kamala Harris On To Roaring Start In Presidential Campaign!

admin 29 Comments

Kamala Harris is off to a roaring start in her Presidential campaign, with $126 million raised since Sunday, 1.4 million donors making contributions, 2,000 applying to work for Harris, and over 100,000 signing up to volunteer!

Meanwhile, Donald Trump is faltering, very obvious in his appearance, his vacant look in his eyes, his inability to finish sentences, his rambling and making no sense.

Also, the assassination attempt, and the harm it did to him beyond the edge of his right ear, is unclear, but to believe he will be able to have the energy to be President for the next four years is to believe in Fantasy Land.

So the reality is voting for Trump is voting for JD Vance, who already is seen as a negative factor, more than any Vice Presidential nominee going back at least to 1980.

Imagine that Vance’s public opinion ratings are lower than Sarah Palin and Dan Quayle at this point of the campaign!
