    I wish the dems would let this go. They’re going to get him to agree to debate and then Kamala is going to make some minor flub that the press will run wild with despite Trump constantly speaking in word salad. The last thing you want is a “Howard Dean scream” this late in the campaign cycle. Just let Tim Walz mop up the floor with Vance in October, and then let us all vote.

      No, this is exactly where they can hurt him.

      Trump and his followers believe that they represent the silent majority that still has “real” values - like honor, strength and misogyny.

      Calling them out as weird and cowards attacks exactly these values. It turns their own self image against them.

    I love it. But I’d love more signs pointing out how much he hates veterans. That’s something I’d donate to.

    And that he hates unions, in areas of high union population

      I want more about how he’s the only president to advocate for a complete gun ban.

      I can’t believe Harris’s campaign isn’t pressing harder on that point.

      Republican Voters Against Trump have been running veteran billboards for a while. The DNC has been running billboards calling him and anti-union scab.

      I think the chicken angle hits a bit different though, a lot of people write off everything trump says as just talk, and many attacks seem to get ignored as slander, but the fact he’s unwilling to debate is a plain and uncontested fact, one that makes him look weak.

    But didn’t he say he won? While rattling off bingo numbers that seemed to have no correlation with the Polish?

    Edit: Oh, god. I’ve gone for too many jokes at once. Maybe it’s time I have a kid so I can relish in their disappointment of such situations.

    Edit Edit: Wow. I’m really pessimistic today.

    This is the level of our national discourse. And yeah the republicans started it and are worse in many ways. And maybe this sign is fake and just meant as a funny joke. But Jesus Christ we’re killing ourselves.

      The billboards like this are oftentimes from Republicans that are anti-MAGA, this one however is some guy that was a low level cabinet member of Clinton who decided to create his own PAC (Mad Dog PAC).

      It isn’t the DNC putting these up, it’s basically people that just want to troll Trump, and when Trump stops running I’m sure most of these groups will move on to other things.
