Celebrity-studded ‘White Dudes for Harris’ call raises $4m for vice-president​

AZoom call meant to rally “white dudes” in support of vice-president Kamala Harris’s run for the White House raised more than $4m from about 190,000 participants, including several Hollywood stars, in the latest success for her nascent bid for president.

The fundraiser added to a series of positives for the Harris campaign on Tuesday, including the release of a new ad, an endorsement from the Republican mayor of a large city in in Arizona, and an admission from the Republicans’ vice presidential candidate, JD Vance, that Harris posed more of a threat to the Trump campaign than Joe Biden did.

Watched this live last night. Pretty good and talks about platform. I think she'll beat Trump by a country mile unless he drops out of the race. Here she talks about criminals, border security, cost of living, housing, helping people, project 2025, social security and a lot more. No name calling or talking crazy.

Maddow points out frightening truth about Trump's lack of concern about votes​

Jul 30, 2024 #MSNBC #Trump #2024election

Rachel Maddow rounds up instances in which Donald Trump not only assures his supporters that if he is elected they won't have to vote in the future, but also that even for this 2024 election he does not need votes. Maddow posits that the reason Trump doesn't care about votes is that he intends to win by manipulating the administration of the voting tabulation.

Harris, Trump lob Social Security and Medicare claims​

In every presidential election, Democrats and Republicans lob charges and claims about the venerable old-age programs Social Security and Medicare. Older Americans are more reliable voters, and these types of attacks — which at The Fact Checker we call “Mediscare” — appear to have resonance. But caveat emptor — the claims are often misleading.

In her first campaign rally as the likely Democratic nominee, Vice President Harris falsely said that the GOP blueprint for governing in a new administration proposed cuts to Social Security. In a campaign speech after Harris replaced President Biden as former president Donald Trumps opponent, Trump falsely claimed that Harris voted to cut Medicare and would raise the age to qualify for full Social Security benefits. Let’s take a look.

The left lies to our faces everyday and has most of the MSM lying for them as well. I'd like nothing better than to see it all go away. This is politics. They all lie on both sides.
 
Stupid.

Stupid people bleat. Intelligent leaders and sentient persons, discuss - parse, counter, challenge.

We know what this bimbo and her lemming-followers are.
 
"Full stop!" Kamalamadingdong


Of course no one wants her to be President, hell no one would elect her as the local dog catcher. What we have is 8 years of anti Trump propaganda. Thats enough to get them close enough to steal. So you have a choice. You can vote democrat or the democrats will vote for you when they count the votes. All these electronic voting machines in combination with mail in votes is all they need. Then when people are watching the people counting the votes they get rid of the watchers by putting up something over the windows to block the view or having a leaky toilet and sending all the republican watchers home while they continue to stuff ballots into the machines.

MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on Donald Trump totally losing his mind as it sets in that he is losing bad to VP Kamala Harris.

 
In 2020 we got Dumb and Dumber as President and VP. 2024 looks like we will get Dumber and ??? Maybe Biden dog just to prove that the left will elect anything to office. Court will reject any challenges for lack of standing.

I dont blame trump for not going on ABC since he has a lawsuit filed against them already. He also knows they are the enemy so why bother with a media that is so biased you could never get a fair debate?
If there is any debate it should be without computers or teleprompters.
 
Can't wait until the election is over. Probably take a few months, but once things quiet down maybe we can get back to some semblance of normalcy.

Maybe watch the last minute first. There she is clearly Indian. Everywhere else in the video she appears to pander to the black community and tries to identify as black. Some blacks see right through it, others not so much.

 
If Harris wins it tells you all you need to know about the system.
 
Already agreed to. Besides, Fox and Trump will get together and figure out ways to screw Kamala. Bad juju, not cool, can't go for that, no can do.

That agreement was with Biden. If the dems are gonna candidate shop, any old deals with discarded candidates are void.

As for screwing kackles, I thought she liked that. Willie Brown sure thought so.
....and it's not like cnn and any other dem water carrying network didn't try rigging their debates for Biden, because they in fact did. All the rules for the last debate were in Bidens favor and intended to help him look as good as possible.
 
I was under the impression that Trump agreed to a Biden debate.
New not yet confirmed candidate should mean new negotiations for site/format.
Exactly! It was Biden who offered the debates, and he even said, "make my day, pal" when offering to debate. Trump accepted debates with him, not the dem party in general.
