So, he's trying to win Jewish voters by attacking a popular Jewish governor, for not doing as much as his goy ass has for Israel. And sounding completely insane while doing so. Cool.

Maybe not. Him being broke is also a fun idea. But, I just have a gut feeling his will be a long, embarrassing tale. Like, post trial OJ.

Oh, he's not going to fade into oblivion. Donald is going to die soon - not soon enough, but soon. And that arrogant coke-head is going to get a shit-ton of money and a vision to regain his birthright. He is going to have a long, public, somewhat comical descent into madness. Mostly just the cheap knockoff versions of Trump. The party will need to go into a new direction, assuming Trump loses this time.

Ok, he’s warming up a bit.

32 years ago, to start.

Bill has definitely lost a bit off his fastball.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think it was intended to be a slogan. It was a line from an early speech, the crowd started chanting it, and the campaign realized they hit a nerve.

The thing that I really like about Schumer's speech is that it was short.

So, looking at the percentages, Jewish population is 2.17% of the American population. In Pennsylvania, it is 3.3% of the population. WI: 0.6%. MI: 0.9%. AZ: 1.7%. NV: 2.6%. The latest poll I could find was from April. Jews break 57% Dem, 27% Ind, 14% Rep. 58% had a favorable opinion of Biden, compared to 23% for Trump and 29% for Netanyahu. The Democrats trailed Biden by 5 points, so I imagine Kamala may have a lower percentage. While 81% said they are either "very attached" or "somewhat attached" to Israel, only 25% listed Israel as one of their top two issues, behind "the future of democracy" (46%), abortion (30%), and "inflation and economy"(26%). It would be interesting to see the Venn diagram between those how had Israel higher than abortion or future of democracy, but preferred Biden over Trump. I would imagine it's a thin slice. I think the bigger concern would be how Harris deals with the protestors. Antisemitism is a concern with 94% of the respondents. Even though it's slightly less when considering college campuses (91%), the Harris team definitely will need to vet anyone before having a sit down meeting. It would be pretty bad to have a picture of some dipshit with antisemitic sign attached to a story of Harris meeting with their group.

If you like weird, random, and somewhat sacrilegious, I can recommend Mrs. Davis. Just your average nun taking on our AI overlords.

I can't say I am a big fan having Harris/Walz run opposite a DNC convention. It seems kind of shitty to whoever they are scheduled against. On the other hand, it is kind of ballsy to fill two arenas 100 miles apart.

I don't follow Israeli politics that closely, but I assume the next cycle can be accelerated with a no confidence vote. I certainly support cutting off all military aid to Israel. But, either way the mechanics are the same: enough Israelis need to be pissed to call for an election. Whether that's because Bibi is blocking a peace deal (and the release of hostages) because of Trump or because the money is cutoff, it's the same challenges.

If the story has legs, the Israelis will take care of Bibi. I don't think killing a peace deal that returns hostages bodes well for his future. That may be why the story is out there in the first place: put pressure on Bibi to make sure he doesn't stand in the way.

I should note that Vance is coming to NE-2 today. So, I imagine the polling will change up after he holds a packed rally and goes to the Valentinos pizza buffet. Wait..what's that? Vance is coming to town for the sole purpose going to a $1000/plate fundraiser with the Ricketts family? That sounds about right.

NE-2 [Remington Research Group Aug14-17] Harris 50 Trump 42 By comparison, the same polling has these numbers for NE-2 Congress: Vargas (D): 44 Bacon(R, Incumbent): 46 I really hope Tony can pull it out against Bacon. Nebraska Examiner article

1. I think it's fair to say that we have all underestimated Kamala (and/or her team) from a campaigning standpoint. She was my favorite in 2020, but not in my wildest dreams did I think that they would be able to put together this campaign like this, this quickly. So, I'd give it a few beats before I start being concerned how she will handle Congress. And, she has four years of experience dealing with Congress from the executive branch. Obama didn't. 2. Considering the Supreme Court may be the biggest obstacle to progress (abortion, gun control, DACA, how to craft executive orders) over the next 8 years, I think this is great time to have someone who thinks like a lawyer. I get that any President will have lawyers on his team, but it may help to have a leader who really gets it.

My recollection is that on at least one of the deals (Taj?) he ended up putting up a fair amount of his own assets as collateral when loans had to be restructured, and then lost that too. His net worth has fluctuated between 10s millions to being well into the negative.

and when the confusion results in longer lines in those counties, fewer people will vote in those counties.

The offer comes with a free gun and a train ticket to Kursk.

They protested at the RNC. It just didn't get the coverage. This gets the coverage because it is a bigger deal for the Democrats. And nobody is getting paid. Save that Soros shit for the morons. Al-Jazeera article ]

He and Hillary might appeal to Clinton voter who got old (and stupid) and voted for Trump. Considering how many people voted for Bill, and how the boomer/x demographic breaks for Trumps, that may be a significant Venn diagram slice to mine. And I am sure there will be great speeches from people not listed.

Great speech. After the speech, there was a greeting line. One of the volunteers made a joke that there was Runza just a mile down the road...

It gets pretty awkward when he wants to watch Pornhub.

And that's going to be how he gets enthusiasm back into his campaign? "Hear, let me explain (bullshit) economic theory to you..." Because "Lock Her Up!" is going to be replaced by "Tarriffs are taxes levied against foreign countries!" Worst. Season. Ever.

Is it possible that TPUSA is hiring out-of-state activists, putting them up in a hotel, and asking them register in Arizona? The main purpose would for them knock on doors and try to get people to register, but the little bit of extra votes would be gravy. Registration laws in many states are pretty loose. I remember Steve Bannon was registered in Florida because he was renting a house to his ex.
