If the West Wing were remotely realistic, this #debate would shift the race toward the Dems by like 10 points.

2 members of #Trump's campaign staff had a verbal & physical altercation Monday w/an ofcl at #ArlingtonCemetery where Trump participated in a [performative] wreath laying ceremony.
The cemetery ofcl tried to prevent Trump staffers from filming & photographing in a section where recent US casualties are buried. The source said Arlington ofcls had made clear only cemetery staff are authorized to take photographs or film in the area.

This is an amazing clip. Doug’s kids talking about what it’s like to be in Kamala’s family.
Compare with any single minute of Don Jr on camera.

President Joe #Biden is scheduled to appear alongside MVP #KamalaHarris at an event in #Maryland on Thurs at which they are expected to tout billions of dollars in initial savings from an ongoing effort to negotiate w/ #pharmaceutical companies over the prices of #drugs used by Americans on #Medicare.
#Trump plans to hold his second *#news* conference in as many weeks, this one at his golf club in #NewJersey.

Was at the dog park early this morning and spoke to 3 republicans (not MAGA) who are not only watching the DNC but have decided to vote for Harris.
Trump is going to lose big.
On Friday I checked out a new place that just opened up near me. Was chatting with the bartender and when she said she was from MN I asked what she thought of Walz. Turns out she knows him, which I found hilarious, and said he’s exactly the way he seems.

🏹Why women voted for Hitler.
Interesting article on 30 essays by women in Nazi Germany.
“Rather, the women’s essays tend to refer to religious imagery and sentiment conflating piety with the Hitler cult. The women appear to be moved more by Nazism’s proposed solutions to problems such as poverty rather than the supposed grandeur of Nazi ideology in the abstract.“

I was disappointed by the lack of examples of #GOP weirdness when I clicked the hashtag, so this thread is meant to rectify that.
I have about 100 examples that I hope to post over the next few days. Let's start with a video:

Stop calling the Orange Thing’s performance BS a “news conference”. What he does is not “news”. There is nothing new in a pathological liar and bullshit artist. It is a lies conference. Nothing but a conference of lies AND NO REAL-TIME FACT-CHECKING.

People walked out of the trump rally in Wilkes-Barre, PA at the one hour mark lending credence to the completely legitimate theory that they were paid by the hour.

“describing Donald #Trump as an absolute existential #threat to #democracy is 100% accurate. His ability to rip away our allegiances that we formed, & the diplomats know this, that are so critical, not just to Europe, but for the entire planet.”

"And, BTW,JD Vance, do you understand why there was a sudden job opening for running mate on the GOP ticket?? They tried to kill your predecessor."

🔴PLEASE—
CHECK YOUR VOTER REGISTRATION FREQUENTLY.
People are being taken off the voter rolls in GOP-controlled states—but no matter which state you live in:
CHECK YOUR REGISTRATION OFTEN. If there’s an issue you can get it fixed NOW
It’s pretty obvious this election.

#Harris is beating #Trump by transcending him
The sudden & radical shift in the trajectory of the 2024 campaign owes to more than the replacement of President Joe #Biden w/MVP #KamalaHarris as the #Democratic candidate. To a degree that’s still not fully appreciated, #Harris has embraced an entirely new strategy: She’s not just pushing back against Donald Trump’s #politics of #cultural #division. She’s bidding to #transcend it.

Just part of Lawrence O’Donnell’s opening tonight on The #LastWord. He lacerated Trump and the U.S. corporate news media and its lackey Trump sycophantic reporters. Shades of Peter Finch in “Network”—this is the kind of thing more people need to do. Roland Martin does this often.

Did #Trump‘s VP pick #JDVance just ‘#swiftboat’ #TimWalz by attacking his #military record?
[Yep. Vance is pretty effin stupid.]
#Vance, accused his opponent of “stolen valor garbage” & accused him of having “abandoned” his unit in 2005 ahead of a planned deployment to Iraq.

#JDVance enlisted & served 4 yrs, including 6 months in Iraq in 2005 as a reporter w/ a Public Affairs section of a Marine Aircraft Wing 👍🏻
#Walz served 24 yrs earning 8 promotions & ending as a Command Sergeant Major, the highest NCO position. I don’t think JD wants to compare records but if he insists…

Vance attacking Walz: What’s bothers me about Tim Walz is this stolen valor garbage. Do not pretend to be something that you’re not.
