For the sake of balance, because I criticized liberal civility so much, I just wanted to say that it is refreshing to see the Harris campaign drop that bullshit.
Trump IS old and quite weird. We've kept people from the White House for less.

Concern over Trump saying you won't need elections in four years misses the way things are done by would-be dictators.
One of the reasons right-wingers admire Hungary's dictator Orbán is how he changed the rules so that elections still happen, but the opposition simply can't win. #uspol #USPolitics #2024election
#trump Backers Are Talking Up Possible #CivilWar – Mother Jones
“I believe wholeheartedly donald trump and Butler County’s #jdvance are the last chance to save our country politically. I’m afraid if we lose this one, it’s going to take a civil war to save the country, and it will be saved,” Lang said, as the crowd erupted in raucous applause.

So now he’s just screaming the quiet part aloud.
“Christians. I love you, Christians! You gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.”
~Trump tells Christians to vote “Just this time.” After, he will have it “fixed” so they won’t have to vote again. ~

Trump Says Christians Won’t Have to Vote in Future: ‘We’ll Have It Fixed’
Donald Trump told a crowd gathered in West Palm Beach on Friday that if elected for a second term, they “won’t have to vote anymore.”Charisma Madarang (Rolling Stone)
😳 wow - Saying the quiet part out loud...
Trump: "You have to get out and vote. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four years, it will be fixed, it will be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore.. In four years, you won’t have to vote again."

Just preserving this one for posterity: the 60 seconds that made her President.
The lines, the delivery, everything.
Folks upset that the #SecretService may have denied #Trump more security resources for his events need to think about it the other way around:
If his events were getting so dangerous, then they shouldn’t have had the events.
At that point it’s really about questionable judgment on the part of Trump’s team, and it’s fair to call them out over that.
Vice President #Harris immediately opens up a 20 point lead among young voters, an expansion of a 6 point lead by #Biden which had been narrowing.

Or, you know, a six-pack for $30. 😇

This year has felt like nonstop #news, with significant events coming on a weekly or even daily basis. But it's not unique in #history.
For example, there was 1940: War, the draft and FDR’s historic reelection.
1968: Assassinations, political turmoil and more war.
1973 had legal abortion, a historic peace deal, Watergate and plenty of political mayhem.
#Histodons @histodons #USPolitics
Sure, 2024 has had lots of news – but compared with 1940, 1968 or 1973, it’s nothing exceptional
You think 2024 has been packed with a ceaseless and exhausting stream of consequential events? So did Americans in 1940, 1968 and 1973.The Conversation
If you haven't already, or perhaps if you want to again, @heidilifeldman has a #MastodonForHarris #actblue campaign to raise funds for VP Harris's presidential campaign to defeat #Trump.
I think the goal was $1,000 (lol) but we're going to the moon.

“JD Vance is making history as the least liked VP nominee (non-incumbent) since 1980 following his/her party's convention. He's the first to have a net negative favorable rating.
Not surprising given how weak he ran in Ohio in 2022. Far worse than the average Ohio Republican.” @ ForcasterEnten

BREAKING NEWS 🚨🚨
Kamala Harris leads Donald Trump 44% to 42% in US presidential race, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds

"According to a recent Pew Research Center poll, 63% of Americans believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases, which is up four percentage points from 2021. Notably, two-thirds of moderate Republicans also say they support abortion rights."
Abortion (and women's rights more broadly) is a huge winning issue that Harris can play up.
"A leading right-to-life group gives her Senate record an “F” grade," which is the best F ever.
6 in 10 Americans support abortion rights. This could be the advantage Kamala Harris needs against Donald Trump
Harris is assertive and confident on the issue, while Trump and his running mate seem to be at odds over strategy.The Conversation

The Democrats must QUICKLY choose its next candidate for President of the United States, then coalesce around that person to defeat Donald Trump in less than 4 months!

Movies like The Purge (there are 5 of them from 2013 to 2021 and a TV show from 2018 to 2019), Civil War (Garland, 2024) and the TV Show The Boys (2019-present) depict the United States almost like they were real. The reality is much scarier than horror films.

Do Democrats have enough time to find a different path to victory?
It's actually not an unusual concept.
Until 1968, presidential candidates were always picked by party conventions.
And that process, though providing less public input, also produced some great nominees.
#Biden #Election2024 #USPolitics #Histodons @histodons
Until 1968, presidential candidates were picked by party conventions – a process revived by Biden’s withdrawal from race
With President Joe Biden out of the presidential race, the Democratic Party will have to find another nominee. Past methods of choosing have had their flaws, but also their successes.The Conversation
