Should have known there is an actual 'Dead cat strategy.' Wikipedia defines it as "the political strategy of making a shocking announcement to divert media away from problems or failures in other areas." Trump & Vance are incredibly lazy--among other things. But what excuse does the media have?
Over 8 short weeks Kamala Harris gained the Democratic nomination, united the party, selected a running mate, raised massive amounts of cash, barnstormed swing states, headlined a prime-time convention, rolled out a platform & decimated Donald Trump in a debate. Harris & her team demonstrated the vision, tactics, discipline, energy, momentum, resources, organization & will to win. The Trump campaign not so much.
@Lizette603_23'm encouraged by the fact that Harris & Walz seem to enjoy working hard. Also, by reports that Harris is tough to brief because she's actually read the briefing notes & asks tough questions. Hard work is good work.
@DebErupts@Lizette603_23 Just about every CEO & economist in the country trusts Harris more than Trump on the economy. There's no comparison. Trump has no plan. Or even concept of a plan.
Tim Walz' first experience with a teleprompter was just a couple of weeks ago. But Walz is a naturally gifted communicator, and Republican kryptonite: "While other states were banning books from their schools, we were banishing hunger from ours."
Tim Walz likes Bob Seger & Bruce Springsteen. His first car was a '73 orange Chevy Camaro with an 8-track in it He's the kind of guy who has a cat & a dog. He represents the return to normal in America.
@bmacDonald94 Playing for Change produce & record everything so well. I mean, damn, Cat Stevens' Peace Train sounds transcendent. It's the sound of the planet waking up singing.
