Harris' handlers are smart. They already have her getting prepared for the debates by practicing gently mocking older white men.

I'm sure it was all worth it though. To be despised by the people you have to follow around the country AND have zero respect from the journalism community.

I'm not exactly sure what this means, but it's possible that the number of people who will almost certainly reject my romantic advances has just doubled.

My daughter (no pics) just turned 18.
When i asked her what she wanted for her birthday, she said, “one thing: to register to vote”.
She and her friends are fired up.
And although I’m far from the best dad in the world, it made me proud that maybe I did some things right.

Mine turns 18 on Dec 10th. She so pissed she can’t vote.

She hates Trump. But what I really want to do is take her to a Harris and a Trump rally and let her make a truly informed decision. Even if she can’t vote.

Our deal has always been that I try to get her to think about both sides of the issue. Then decide how she feels about it.

Fat donnie's twitter date with elmo on monday night is gonna be something else. I wont watch that one, because fuck legitimizing that cesspool, but I'm assuming Trump will boldly go where none of his advisors think possible. The other funny thing about that couple is both men will enter that room with 100% certainty that they will be the one receiving oral.

Back in the 2000s, I had to ref a high school bi-district playoff game between two of the shittiest teams I’ve ever seen play basketball in The Valley.

That shitty ass game between those two schools who would lose to any JV team in Dallas had more fans than this rally.

Re: comments up thread about not getting cocky and hoping the campaign doesn’t take their foot off the gas….

100% agree with all that. What feels different to me about now vs 2016 is that in 2016

1) Trump was seen then as this crazy loon who just might be able to provide the reset Washington needed by a whole bunch of people at the time

And 2) Hillary wasn’t really inspiring at all. A huge portion of the population had a massively negative impression of her and she didn’t do shit to fire up or inspire the ones who were meh about her. In one of the most tone deaf campaigns of all time, she completely underestimated what Trump was tapping into.

Fast forward to today, and

1) Trump isn’t capturing any zeitgeist this time. As we all are aware he is really starting to sound like Charlie Brown’s teacher. His schtick is old and tired and this time he’s not seen as a unique agent of change by a bunch of people. Rather we now have a bunch of people who have figured out what he’s all about and don’t want any part of it.

And 2) Kamala isn’t hated by huge swath of the population. In fact it’s her this time that seems like the breath of fresh air. Even if people don’t love all of her policies, she’s smart, seems like she tells the truth and acts with integrity and human decency, probably won’t try to overthrow the government, and has the benefit of simply not being Trump or Biden.

Anything can happen and I certainly agree that the campaign shouldn’t take their foot off the gas. But in at least this one old assholes opinion, this time feels like it has some fundamental differences vs 2016.

Idoits don’t know the demographics of Swifties.

“Congratulations! You will get every 12-16 girl excited for nothing”

For clarity

Taylor Swift's fans, also known as "Swifties", are spread across many age groups. According to a 2023 survey, 45% of Swift's US fans are millennials, 25% are baby boomers, and 21% are Gen X, meaning almost half of her fans are likely over 45. However, a 2023 poll by Morning Consult also found that the typical Swiftie is a white millennial woman. Additionally, a survey conducted in October 2023 found that 33% of respondents aged 30 to 44 and more than 10% of respondents aged 65 or older consider themselves Swifties.

The Red, 1989, Reputation era Swift fans are now all voting age. It isn't just full of little girls. She's been a thing since 2009. She's not some new phenomenon. Her fans have aged with her. And you know who became Swifties because of their not of voting age daughters? The parents of those kids who shelled out thousands to attend the shows. This isn't your Red State era country Taylor Swift audience.

Right, correct, yes. It was just interesting to note since no one expected it. Also, if you’re not over 50% in ohio, it can give insight to how unpopular he is elsewhere. I’m definitely not saying she should start doing ohio events, not at all.

Here's something I found that I think is really interesting.  If you go to https://kamalaharris.com/ and click the "Events" link, it sends you directly to this page from the Democratic National Committee: https://events.democrats.org/. 

Honestly, this screencap doesn't do it justice.  There are dozens and dozens of events, which you can filter and sort a number of different ways.  Whether you want to see her schedule, join a phone bank, attend an in-person or virtual meeting about messaging, join up to knock on doors, attend a rally... it's all there.

 

Then I (in incognito mode) went to Trump's official site and clicked on the "Events" link.

 

Oh.  Well that's not good.
