Somebody needs to tell the Harris/Wolz campaign to not engage. By ignoring this idiocy, that’s going to make Cheetolini even angrier, the crazy will increase and turn off all but his fanatical cult members.
I think people are just sick of his 💩. I live for the day when I don’t have to see, hear or read something about him.
I think they HAVE been pretty successful at ignoring Trump's attacks. When asked, they give short sort of boring quotes and then move on. Let's hope everyone's getting tired of this 6-year old name-calling. I know I am ready to be an adult!
There are Republicans that have voiced the idea that Democrats should be rounded up and shot. MTG and ones like her push the narrative that it is the Democrats that aren't human. All the while they engage in criminal behavior like their leader.
In his "press conference" the other day, he averaged two lies or fabrications per minute.
Joy has taken over the real world and that breaks his brain. Yes, he is going to get worse but that will drive more people away. It is not long before the nice doctors will be taking him away.
The problem are these news silos and so many of the right don't ever watch anything that might give them a heads up about what's happening with the Harris campaign. It's just depressing to go on FoxNews and see what they're saying. I need to take another mental break from it!
I don't watch ANYTHING from Fox. Not News, not any other programs either. On the one hand, I feel slightly concerned that by not seeing Fox's reporting I am not "seeing the whole picture" and reaching my own conclusions. On the other hand (and more importantly to me) I am able to maintain my sanity!
In 2024, we cannot afford to be lazy or ignorant. If 2020 taught us anything, it taught us that just winning the election isn't the end of the work. I go on FoxNews and post all of the time and I went on there just now and it's clear that the MAGAs won't respect the election results if they lose....and this might happen all across the country. If they can buy the lie that Kamala is photoshopping in crowds...they will believe anything. They've come up with a strategy of just make the accusation and our minions will follow. This isn't going to be pretty or for the faint of heart. We can do this but we have to be hypervigilant until the MAGA thing burns itself out. They will be looking to sow chaos and blame it on the Dems.
Backed into a corner with nowhere to go and a running mate who carries his water, we have a former president who is resorting to throwing sand from his sandbox. It’s disturbing, frightening, and will not dissipate. Watching last nte’s CNN documentary/show on his followers who believe 2020 was stolen, I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants. Instead I should be incredibly frightened. We all need to be. The lunatics are running the asylum. My only hope is he is finally prosecuted for his crimes against our country when Harris/Walz is elected. No pardons.
I’m not sure why people choose to use the term “acting like animals.” It has been my experience in my 68 years as a human that the animals I’ve observed, known, & loved were much more logical, civil, & loving to one another than the majority of humans, especially since “what’s his name” (to use Nancy Pelosi’s term) floated to the top of our everyday lives.
love this reference...and agree about the animals...so much so that we wrote a book about it to support my husband's mental high-performance work with professional athletes...called "Be A Beast: Unleash Your Animal Instincts For Performance Driven Results" :-)
I just finished Kamala Harris's book "The Truths We Hold." If she were a republican they would be touting her resume: how she is "tough on crime," how she worked hard to give people "a leg up, not a hand out," (Programs like Back on Track and the truancy initiative), how she took an analytical approach to reducing repeat and first time offenders, thereby "decreasing costs" of incarceration in her state. They would point to evidence of her christian values and her ability to gang tackle problems through extraordinary leadership and communication skills. These are things that can't be seen through lies and hate, and should be highlighted by Republicans for Kamala as classic conservative ideals. Of course, it would help if her detractors were willing to open a book instead of turning on a podcast.
I'm new to this site. I join because I admire Adam for his courage for standing up for America and for ALL Americans. So, forgive me if this has been stated before, but after watch the DT press conference it is clear he's not living in this world, he so delusional if it wasn't so scary it would be funny. I'm a Independent with a slight lean to the left. But I support and am encouraged by people like Adam and Liz Cheney who put the country first and expose the true, Good will overcome evil and after November the orange one will fade away into the fantasy world, he lives in. and the healing can begin. at least that my hope. There's enough hate in the world, it's time the hate monger to go away.
Welcome, Rick. It’s time for everyone who loves freedom and democracy to stand up,speak out, and vote! Love, understanding, listening,respect and compassion always overcome fear. That’s what this site is about and we’re happy to have you!
Bob, thank you for the welcome, my wife and I feel as you do and we are standing up and trying to speak out as much as possible, including talking to neighbors and friends about today's issues and why voting for the compassionate side is so important vote down hate and all those who enable DT. A real American doesn't vote for him and his gang
Conspiratorial fear is the opium of the maga cult. They search for it with the passion of a crack addict. trump,Fox, Musk, Carlson, Bannon and more are their pushers…
They will spend every dime, and give away their most precious values to get another daily fix of it. Whatever their pusher says becomes their truth. They now need this endorphine rush and rush headlong to the newest outrage without regard for its validity. This is the new old white America.
Great commentary - you are correct. People are tired of the nastiness. Hope for a positive future is having an effect on the naysayers among the population. I am hearing it living in a trumpian area. The messages of using the power of government to make it a fair playing field so the middle class, working people can get out of survival mode, are beginning to resonate.
I agree! I'm one of those extremely sarcastic people who strike back at MAGA's who attack Adam, Tim Walz, fellow Veterans & others. Especially, when it's coming from QAnon and vile creatures like Laura Loomer & Marjorie Taylor-Greene, etc. I have been suspended and put in Twitter jail many times for saying things that doesn't come anywhere close to what MAGA's or eLord himself posts. Anyway, I have really reigned it in since VP Harris has become our nominee because I like the positive nature of the campaign and it's frankly exhausting trying to defend people on social media. Besides, I'll leave the hilarious jabs and calling out Trump to Rick Wilson & The Lincoln Project, MeidasTouch and others.
Let Trump & Shady Vance run their mouths, and they will dig their own graves. BTW: That Trump/Musky Interview last night was a TRAIN WRECK. I'm still laughing.
Wow, this is a topic that's worth a full discussion and Trump, certainly, seems be the most egregious. However, it extends beyond Trump. There are too many, who claim the christian faith yet seem to be more than comfortable, at least in the political arena, to repeatedly bear false witness against a political opponent. The present Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, has been, particularly, skilled and consistent in ignoring this commandment.
Thanks for this article, Adam, as I share your concern. Yet, it has come to a point where I have to ask why are so many in the party silent, why are these endless racist and dehumanizing comments about others accepted without much, if any, protest?
I value your thoughts on how we recover after he challenges his loss and loses. I believe he is planning to maintain the support of his hard core base, to feed his psychopathic need and line his pocket. How will the conned get back to normal and not pose a continuing security threat?
I really fear for our country this election cycle. His supporters just don't care and believe there's no way he'll lose unless there's cheating. I'm almost sure there will be election chaos the likes we've never seen before. To them...chaos is a "win" because it puts doubt in people's minds about what happened. When they are accusing Harris of photoshopping a photo (a ridiculous claim) and people believe it....we are in trouble...because they will believe anything...especially if it make it seem like there was a stolen election.
Lets be prepared, just like we have to be prepared to handle the election certification shenanigans. Three powerful people - Elias, Jeh Johnson, and Luttig stepped up to lead that defense.
We need a second front with a good strategy and leaders to handle this real fear as well.
Unfortunately, the last time (30’s) fascists tried to grab power in the US, it was WWII that brought them down-people learned the real consequences of dictatorship and rejected it.
Insane Clown won't have the range of choices that he had as president. Needless to say he won't be able to try to coerce the VP when she is his opponent. He won't be able to keep the National Guard on the sidelines leaving a skeleton crew of law enforcement as sacrificial lambs. This time it will be a more insidious threat with an army of lawyers and corrupt election officials.
but he will be able to get members of Congress to object to the certification and they worked hard to get magas in charge of local elections that could delay certification and contest the results. Lot's of tricks up their sleeves. Hopefully the election win is so obvious it will be hard for them not to certify.
Thanks for your insights, Adam! I hope trump keeps it up!! Yes, there is a group of people who need the negativism to stay engaged but I believe the majority of people move toward those who radiate joy!! Like moths to light 😀!
I love his latest that Kamala's crowds are AI induced!! I laughed how he lost it at the Mara Lago press conference when asked about crowd sizes🤣!
I believe God had a plan when you decided not to run for Congress again to create Country First and this Substack bringing light to trump's darkness! Thank you 🙏
You may be right but imo, the Harris/Walz campaign has awakened a sleeping dragon. All the felon can offer is tired old reruns of what he thinks are his greatest hits. Granted, his base still seems to be lapping this up but I think the silent majority have had enough of trump. As for what JD brought to the table, that’s turned into a giant millstone around the campaign’s neck and I hope it stays there.
Read that and completely agree. Ironically, it's the Republicans that are about stealing elections. Change the rules. Place election deniers of election boards. Allow legislatures to overturn popular vote. Reduce the number of polling places to keep people from voting. Question everything and nobody believes anything!
I hope that, at the end of the day, Kamala Harris can win without having to get negative and nasty the way Donald Trump does. Do you think she can win without having to stoop to his level?
Absolutely, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't call out the facts and him lying about things. She can do that without being nasty. In fact, she appears to be VERY good at it.
I’m glad Kamala is taking the high road-it’s the best thing to do. He’s losing momentum which is why it’s worse. That’s what bullies do when they are cornered.

Yes. That’s a great strategy. Ignore the American people and avoid confrontation with the media. People are stupid. No reason to engage.
There are Republicans that have voiced the idea that Democrats should be rounded up and shot. MTG and ones like her push the narrative that it is the Democrats that aren't human. All the while they engage in criminal behavior like their leader.

Agree! It simply is too hard to watch Fox for any credible political news.
agreed
Read Mark Levin's book "Democrats Hate America". Gives you a scary insight as to why people are talking about shooting Democrats!
The title of that book is actually "The Democrat Party Hates America." Referring to the party that way is a deliberate act of disrespect.
Amen!

No immunity either!
