Trump fantasizes about throwing mothers into camps, JD Vance PANICS
J.D. Vance, Donald Trump’s vice presidential running mate, has historically low favorability ratings for a new VP pick. Vance may even be detrimental to Trump's chances, as recent favorability numbers show him with a net negative rating of -6, compared to the average VP rating of +19 since 2000. His perceived smugness and unpopularity have not only frustrated some voters but could potentially anger Trump, who was reportedly considering North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum as a running mate before being influenced by his children to choose Vance instead. This decision might trigger Trump’s dissatisfaction and exacerbate his campaign troubles. Overall, Vance’s poor reception could contribute to Trump's campaign struggles, benefiting opponents who are looking to undermine his bid for reelection.
Kamala calls Trump sexual predator at first rally
Kamala Harris has so far been focusing on two key strategies in her campaign speeches: Trump’s criminality and Project 2025. She is directly attacking Donald Trump by portraying him as a sexual predator and a criminal, leveraging her experience as a prosecutor to highlight her record of taking on perpetrators and fraudsters. Harris emphasizes her prosecutorial background in handling sexual abuse and environmental crimes, contrasting it with Trump’s controversial history, including his liability for sexual abuse and issues with his for-profit ventures. Additionally, she is targeting Project 2025, a right-wing initiative that seeks to overhaul the administrative state which has garnered increasing public attention and opposition in recent months. By addressing both Trump’s criminal behavior and Project 2025, Harris aims to mobilize voters and create a stark contrast between her policies and Trump’s record.

Kamala Harris secures delegates to win nomination
Kamala Harris appears to have secured enough delegates to become the Democratic presidential nominee, just days after Joe Biden announced he would not seek reelection. This rapid development has left the party in a state of flux, with some members expressing frustration and others showing support. Harris secured the necessary delegate support within 36 hours of Biden's endorsement, sparking a debate over whether there should still be an open convention. Despite calls from some quarters for a contested nomination process, no serious challengers have emerged from within the Democratic Party. The swift consolidation of support and record campaign contributions flowing into Harris's campaign has further solidified her position as the party’s nominee. Critics argue that the process was manipulated, but the fact remains that Harris now stands as the only viable choice. In her statement, Harris expressed gratitude to Biden and the party, emphasizing her commitment to defeating Donald Trump.
From yesterday’s show:
MAGA TRIGGERED by Trump being oldest nominee ever
Now that Joe Biden has dropped out of the presidential race, Donald Trump, at 78, is the oldest major party presidential candidate in history. This fact has triggered significant reactions among Republicans, who have previously criticized Biden's age and cognitive abilities. The irony has not been lost on many, as media coverage has often scrutinized Biden's mental fitness while overlooking Trump's frequent verbal missteps and apparent confusion. The focus on Trump's age and fitness has now put Republicans on the defensive, especially as they lack a strong retort to the criticism that Trump is the oldest nominee ever. This situation contrasts Trump with the relatively younger Kamala Harris, sparking a broader discussion about the implications of an older candidate. The reality of Trump's age and the media's newfound attention on his cognitive state has intensified the debate, potentially becoming a campaign issue over the coming months.

How can anyone read Vance’s expression through that armpit on his face?
Asked by several International friends about the present Justice system in the US, especially with the incredulous support of our Supreme Court, I had to admit that this is what we have right now.
Justice? Yes, that's what we have..."Just this"
