GOP panics as election will now be fought over policy - that’s a war they can’t win

Now that Biden has bowed out, Harris, and the rest of the Democrats can focus the voters’ attention on the existential threat to the American experiment presented by a would-be dictator who is losing the battle with age. Now Trump is the old man, slow of foot, throwing predictable punches, ready to be knocked out.

You can smell the fear.

Republicans will play the sexist card, the racist card, the “couldn’t solve the immigration crisis” card. They will slam Harris as incompetent. They will call her names. They will distort her record. They will lie about everything. But the only people their bluster will impress will be the MAGA cultists who are going to vote for Trump anyway.

Feck them. The battle is won in the middle. Harris and the Democrats, like Ukraine after the Western powers started shipping advanced military technology, has better weapons than the enemy.

”The economy is strong. Bankers predicted a recession.”

Harris can heap scorn on the “experts” that predicted throughout Biden’s term that a recession was just around the corner. It never happened. The plutocratic Cassandras and profit-driven bankers were wrong once again. As they always are about the economy — and everything else.

President Harris will put the needs of the average American family above the greed of the 1%.

1. The MAGAts have NO POLICY platforms...

Kamala Harris has been hammering home about Project 2025 and the horrors for the country. She has been traveling the country about the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

Kamala will be asking the MAGA crowd, "What POLICY ISSUE do you have that will move the United States FORWARD and NOT BACKWARD?"

Kamala's smile and genuine laughter will become infectious. Her positive attitude about this country will resonate with voters versus the doom and gloom emitting from the MAGAts. The attention she will be getting, for good or not, will infuriate CF#45 to the point of collapse. When the polls go south on him, he will implode or explode.

Let's make it happen people!

3. Yes, you get it

What happened when Kamala became the presumptive nominee is that Democrats now control the narrative, we own it. Kamala's speech yesterday had to scare the shit out of TSF. Kamala stood up to the bully, she punched him right in the face, and when she summarized it by saying, I know his type, I donated 100 dollars.

I will not click on the posts here that talk about what TSF said or what Vance said, I want to keep the narrative with Democrats. I want to talk about our new vigor and enthusiasm and commitment to saving our country.

GOP agenda:
• A society that excludes and criminalizes necessary health care and personal sexual preferences.
• A society that warps the constitution to establish one religion and encourage violence against others.
• Americans pitted against each other along lines of race, color, religion, gender, sexuality, and income.
• Vilification of blacks, Jews, Muslims, lgbtq+ , homeless, and women of strength, encouraging violence against them.
• Destruction of public schools and the opportunity they provide to all, minorities included.
• Funding of private, religious schools to increase class division and unequal access and opportunity.
• Banning of books.
• Devastating climate change
• Leveling the Gaza waterfront to create a Hotel Strip
• A deadly all-out war on the rights of women.
• More welfare for the rich.
• Private health care companies replace medicare and deny needed treatments -- basically "death panels"
• Every civil right is eroded by clown judges living in the 18th century rewriting the constitution.
• Worker's rights and benefits reduced in order to create greater profits for businesses.
• Safety nets removed, so that homeless, and jobless people are left to die on the streets.
• More, more, more of culture war.
• GUNS, everywhere, with no limitations or requirements. Mob rule ( warms Putin's heart )
• Unbridled support of authoritarian regimes across the globe, who eagerly imprison, "re-educate", murder and commit atrocities on others.
• Lies, hate speech and threats are welcomed on "social media" and given support by government officials.
• Medical care and prescription drug costs skyrocket.
• Leadership by people with the lowest morals of all. Grafters and grifters.


KAMALA'S AGENDA (as I see it)
• Support of women's health care and sexual preferences.
• Separation of religion and state, and protection of minority rights.
• Americans of every race, color, religion, gender, sexuality, and income honored and treated fairly.
• The wealthy pay their damn fair share.
• Acceptance and embrace of blacks, Jews, Muslims, lgbtq+ , homeless, and women of strength.
• Zero tolerance of hate and violence.
• Strong action to reduce gun violence.
• Vigorous support of public schools and the opportunity they provide to all, minorities included.
• Getting private, religious schools off the dole.
• Slashing the divide in education, opportunity, internet access and access to the levers of power.
• Banning book bans!
• A local and global "Manhattan Project" to counter climate change
• Guaranteeing the rights of women.
• Support of Medicare, so that some day, we can have UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, SINGLE PAYER.
• Taking profiteers of "Medicare Advantage" plans to task.
• Restoring the Supreme Court to one that serves all people, and it not a religious tribunal or den of thieves.
• Worker's rights and benefits increased and guaranteed.
• Safety nets bolstered for homeless, jobless, and other needy people.
• Holding social media accountable for calls to violence that they harbor or actively foster.
• Sensible gun control
• Putting authoritarian regimes across the globe on notice.
• A better society by POSITIVE EXAMPLE
