David Axelrod: "Make Donald Trump small" at Sept. debate

'Ex-Obama aide gives Harris advice for taking down Trump:
David Axelrod, a former senior adviser to Barack Obama, says it’s imperative for Kamala Harris to make Donald Trump “small” in their first televised debate on September 10. Axelrod appeared on CNN’s Newsnight following Harris and her running mate Governor Tim Walz’s primetime interview with Dana Bash on Thursday evening.

“I guess if I were advising her… don’t make Trump big by trying to get into back and fourth with him throughout the night. Make him small. He’s going to try to do what Trump does,” he told host Abby Phillip on Thursday evening.“This is his seventh presidential debate; nobody’s done more. We know what his habits are.”

He concluded: “She should have a conversation with the American people about the future she envisions and spar with him when she has to.”

Re the Sept. 10 debate: Suggestion...

Suppose that, as a compromise, the first half of the debate has muted mikes as was done at June debate, and second half has open mikes, as has usually been done?

The 'brave' Djt who got his ear scratched...

The 'brave' Djt who got his ear scratched for the 'benefit of this country' ridicules those who lost lives and limbs in wars. I hope those spirits he degrades visit him daily as he tries in vain to sleep in prison.

Djt complained about protesters burning American flags outside the DNC

Those are symbolic pieces of cloth.

What Djt does every day in words and deeds violates and threatens to undermine what those symbols stand for -- the principles of the Constitution, the values of democracy and human equality and respect.

Using the gravesite of fallen Americans as a campaign commercial is exponentially more offensive than flag-burning.

Former Djt lawyer: Ex-president will serve six-to-nine years behind bars if convicted of Jan 6 charges

'Former Trump lawyer predicts ex-president will serve six-to-nine years behind bars if convicted of Jan 6 charges

Donald Trump’s former White House lawyer anticipated that he would be sentenced to six to nine years if convicted for his alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

Special Counsel Jack Smith filed a superseding indictment against the former president on Tuesday, keeping the same four criminal charges intact but trimming down some of the allegations in light of the Supreme Court’s immunity decision last month. In the wake of the new filing, Ty Cobb, an attorney in the Trump administration, discussed Trump’s chances of spending time behind bars on CNN’s Erin Burnett OutFront.

“It’s a forceful document…You can’t read this and not understand the crimes that Trump actually committed,” Cobb said.'

Djt is correct in saying that Harris 'isn't respected by the world's tyrants' ...

unlike Djt, who can't wait to join forces with Putin, Xi and Orban and forge a new version of WW2's fascist Axis.

Djt has always used other people's properties/bodies without permission

Whether it's Taylor Swift, Foo Fighters or E.Jean Carroll ...it's the pattern of a rapist.

RFuK's siblings issue statement condemning his endorsement of Djt

(Reported by Cecilia Nowell, The Guardian)

'Five of RFK Jr’s siblings have shared a statement denouncing their brother’s decision to endorse Trump:

“We want an America filled with hope and bound together by a shared vision of a brighter future, a future defined by individual freedom, economic promise and national pride. We believe in Harris and Walz.
Our brother Bobby’s decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear. It is a sad ending to a sad story,”
Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Courtney Kennedy, Kerry Kennedy, Chris Kennedy and Rory Kennedy said in a statement.'

Now that Djt has been given a protective glass barrier when he rallies outdoors...

Will Harris and Walz also get this protection when they rally outside?
Or is this privilege only granted for the 'Dick in a Box'?
