    this kind of rhetoric will never work against somebody who was already president. Her campaign has made a mistake, which honestly shouldn’t be big enough to crash the election but its the US and the electoral college who the fuck knows how 5000 psychopaths in swing states are going to vote after being bombarded with record breaking levels of insane propaganda…

    It should be clear that the easy way to campaign on trump is to hit him hard in the economy: He had to bailout farmers because of his first round of tariffs. US steel still hasn’t recovered. Trump tariffs will not only raise prices but the resulting bailouts will drastically increase inflation and eventually he will run out of scapegoats to blame his failures on so however loyal to trump you seem to be, eventually he will blame you and send the military on you for criticizing him

    edit: Just to clarify what she’s saying is correct, its just that voters swayable to this argument have already picked sides.

      I really don’t understand why neither the Harris or Biden campaign just roiled out footage of the Covid-19 lockdown in a short film titled “Literally the last time this motherfucker was in charge”

      Cause ya know, that would work…

        They’re holding pat with, “Hey, we’re not the other guy. And that should be enough.”

        And anyone who says, well maybe that’s not enough, gets lambasted.

          Yeah, but you could say “We’re not the other guy… who did THIS, and that should be enough.”, point out WHY the other guy is bad…

          It’s “Oh yeah, we never actually asked him what he believed would make America great again… whoops.” from 2016 all over again.

          In my heart of hearts, I still feel like we’re heading to a Kamela victory, but then we look at the polls…
