Official LRC Kamala Harris for President Thread

gathering up some opinion, this is what the Trump campaign is thinking:

1) They were knocked back, 100% surprised Biden quit. They couldn't imagine a president doing a selfless, patriotic act, so no wonder they didn't see it coming. Reveals their illnesses.

2) Trump has failed to take advantage of the couple weeks they had to define Harris. They failed at this. He tried with 'not black' 'laughs a lot' and his slime, incl on LRC, have tried 'prostitute.' Not working well for Trump.

3) Current plan is to wait for Harris to blow herself up. The theory is that Harris is good in scripted performances like rallies, but not in press conferences or interviews. This will reveal that:

4) Harris just isn't very smart, is a lightweight, shouldnt' be taken seriously. (Trump's view)

And that's the plan. I think it has some value in waiting for Harris to mess up. It's true - she is not a policy person, she isn't great on her feet, when she gets nervous she laughs. Which is not presidential.

So we'll see.

I was literally at a Trump rally 2 weeks ago in PA. He's coming back to PA this weekend. He's been giving interviews every week, JD Vance did multiple yesterday. The Kamaleon hasn't. You're a liar and an idiot.

So?

Copium is a hell of a drug.

Keep your chin up, Sport.

They start with “unconstitutional.”

Asked to demonstrate exactly how it’s unconstitutional, they can’t do it.

No problem. New tack: “unusual and undemocratic”

Ah. Unusual since the 1950s. You know what else is unusual? Having your presumptive nominee appear to not be up to the rigors of campaigning and governing at the same time, eventually admitting to that, and stepping down after the primaries.

Oh yeah. It’s totally undemocratic: You can see the other potential replacement nominees and all the rank-and-files Dems voicing their displeasure with the party process as they take to the streets like Venezuelans.

And sure: It was totally unfair for the Democrats to foist the ultra-popular, spectacular-at-campaigning Harris on the Republicans after they’d had a mere 3.8 years of expecting her to be on the ticket.

look, harris had no campaign a month ago. She had two weeks to pull together a campaign that didn't exist, and hire a veep. Trump had a year and a half to do that. Unheard of. 3 wks vs 70ish weeks. Patience, grasshopper. What she is doing is working like a charm. A historic climb in the polls. Historic. And she is winning.

Also, it's much easier for trump to do interviews because he just makes up stuff. He doesnt' have to study up on policy because he just makes up stuff and his people, you included, don't care if it's all lies.

Harris and the Dems don't work like that. What she says will be taken seriously and she wants to tell the truth, not lies. Unlike trump. So she is studying up on policy and making sure she is up to speed on everything.

Looks like he's hiding to everyone else. Why is Trump afraid to go out an speak to the public? He keeps hiding behind scripted "interviews."

Trump's hiding behind "interviews" strategy isn't working. His monthly fairground, pity party, recycled speeches weren't working. Nothing is working. He's become incredibly repetitive, boring and predictable.

Also - someone may want to tell him that calling America a failed country over and over again, is starting to turn people off.

You now want people to talk to the "lame stream media?" I thought you couldn't trust the media. Now the media is all important?

Pick a lane dawg.

That's a very good point. Can't trust the MSM EXCEPT:

1) When they say something you like.

2) When you want to criticize Harris for not talking to them.

Consistency and honesty. 'mericuh.

"Not a policy person, isn't great on her feet, gets nervous she laughs" VERSUS Trump.

Tough call, mericuh !!!

Sorry, I left out "crazy, unhinged, radical leftist fake black......"

And EVEN IF that were true......tough call, 'mericuh.

Oh, and in THIS case, a fair, mature interview with, say, that legendary journalist Jesse Watters from Fox "News," WOULD qualify as an MSM event.

But hey, that's just garden variety inconsistency and hypocrisy.

All of it pales to nothingness in comparison to NOMINATING DONALD TRUMP, AGAIN.

Love this response. Whenever a lib deflect with "b-b-but TwUmP" when their candidate faces criticism, it's a tell that you've hit a nerve. You can't even rationalize Kamala hiding from the press anymore so you attempt to employ the "but twump" red herring, hoping it will save you.

It's not going to work. Kamala hiding from the press for 3 weeks now is a thing, people are wondering why. Hiding is not making your candidate look good, you should expect better.

No, you and the other Trumpers just repeatedly pretend to forget what you've been told a million times. Variations on, "Harris or 99% of other Americans running for president could be in a permanent coma, and we'd still vote against Trump."

Almost makes you think that the Rs did a bad job picking someone, eh ??

You idiots said McCain was a nazi... Let's not pretend your devotion to your cult has anything at all to do with principles.

You are saying she was cast into her new role just like yesterday. And even if yesterday, how hard is it to just sit with the interviewer and answer questions? Just give-and-take with the interviewer. She is like the greatest DA ever. An unscripted interview should be a walk in the park.

I am afraid you Dems will be tooling around town in early 2025 and your bright and shiny car breaks down on the side of the road. And you realized "just maybe I should have looked at it more closely before put everything into it." She sure looked purdy on the showroom floor but I think I maybe bought a clunker. What a fool I was.

Trump should keep campaigning, but his staff knows he's off the rails. His MAL press conference was a disaster. Unhinged. Lie after lie after lie. His ego couldn't take that Harris drew larger crowds in the same arena in PA, so he goes to very red Montana and still has a meager crowd. He's on the ropes and has no idea how to recalibrate his campaign, other than the fear and child-like criticisms of Harris.

Harris is campaigning and, yes, giving the same stump speech. That's what one does when they campaign. It will change some over the next 80+ days, but that's what a candidate does. Trump's incoherent ramblings about sharks, windmills, Hannibal, etc. are not normal. For as much as the MSM called out Biden for his age and diminished capabilities, they've been negligent to do the same for Trump, who is obviously not well.

But we can say he's not a war hero, right? We can bash on him for getting captured, right?
