@benroyce Actually, the Harris campaign ran a very fast and engaging social campaign on TikTok and Insta - but they didn't own either platform. It was platform ownership (esp with AI, algorithm manipulation & censorship control) than content that determined the social media power play.

@phaedral what moral imperative...California has probably more in common with the democracies of Western Europe, Asia & Australasia than it does with the 'Red States'.

California - the world's 5th largest economy, a populous and strongly progressive region of the country it's still currently a part of and a Pacific-oriented entity - really should secede. #uspol

Hey American Mastodon Democratic followers we're with you guys.

I've cleared my calender for election day and the day after to watch and track the results.

So many people I know (including my American friends) in Australia/NZ/UK are incredibly invested in seeing #KamalaHarris become the 47th POTUS.

You have a whole legion of supporters in democracies around the world on your side
🙏👏🇺🇸

What an utterly malevolent and pathetic man Trump is: going into full throttle "they're stealing the election" mode - because he knows he's losing and the only way to try and save face and stay out of prison is to claim the election is being stolen.

@KamalaHarrisWin

#KamalaHarris has run an exceptional campaign.
She's worked incredibly hard, remained joyous, stayed on message, comported herself with poise and class, built a wide tent to attract and welcome a broad coalition, spearheaded an extraordinary fundraising machine.
The campaign org itself has generated spectacle & momentum, coordinated a phenomenal GOTV capability, cleverly deployed effective surrogates, run a fast and often humorous digitally-based media game. @KamalaHarrisWin

#timwalz has this uncanny ability to quickly encapsulate a person or situation with devastingtly funny quips.
@KamalaHarrisWin

If #KamalaHarris wins the majority of swing States in the EC (likely) and wins a sizeable popular vote (very likely) - would SCOTUS majority still have the audacity to back a Trump legal ploy? @KamalaHarrisWin

Trump campaign feeding gamed Real Clear Politics polling average to Trump (ie full of junk rightwing polls) and not internal polling data.

That is, giving the narcissistic man-baby the perception he's winning - but not using the typically much more reliable and extensive internal polling.

This is a real tell: their own polling isn't good.

@KamalaHarrisWin

20k attended the fascist-fest at MSG.
50k plus being planned for at VP's address on the Mall.

Hope trounces Hate !!

@KamalaHarrisWin

What do the Trumpy billionaires do when they realise they've put their greedy eggs in the wrong basket? #HarrisWalz win.
@KamalaHarrisWin

There's the argument flying around that Bezos et al can choose to not have their assets endorse the VP because - unlike Trump - they don't fear any retribution.
Um there's the opportunity under a Harris administration to go hard on billionaire's full taxable accountabilities and re-consider gvt contracts.
@KamalaHarrisWin

Campaign brilliance from the #HarrisWalz team - sustaining their own momentum and impact (in the absence of a 2nd presidential debate) with high energy Atlanta/Houston/Kalamazoo rallies supported by big name surrogates & celebs plus focused Republican/independent outreach initiatives.

@KamalaHarrisWin

When you live in an authoritarian dictatorship - the state creates a culture of reporting on your workmates, neighbours, friends and even family members for any perceived disloyalty against the great leader. I really don't think MAGA understand this. @KamalaHarrisWin

His entire entitled life he's been given special treatment and - he still whines endlessly about how awful/evil/nasty anyone is who doesn't show him anything other than sycophantic adulation.
Now at 78 - when he's clearly in major cognitive decline, going full throttle fascist and physically exhausted on the campaign trail - most of the corporate media will continue to run protection for him in a way they'd never do for Biden and certainly not for Harris. @KamalaHarrisWin

At 78 Trump is apparently exhausted and that's the reason his campaign is cancelling media and other promised commitments.
During his first presidency he was lazy, working less hours than any of his predecessors - preferring time on the golf course and disliking foreign travel.
He clearly lacks the stamina for the job; if he's exhausted on the campaign trail how can he possibly cope with the role as an exhausted 78 yr old? @KamalaHarrisWin

The only diaper Trump's ever changed is maybe his own...but even then that's disputable.

According to The Apprentice's Noel Casler he had one of the minions in his entourage regularly "clean him up".

Either way, the man is utterly disconnected from everyday peoples' lives. @KamalaHarrisWin

@WarnerCrocker some differences to 2020: a Dem POTUS and VP are in the chair; several of the battleground States have Dem officeholders with the ability to determine the certification process.

Trump is obviously cognitively declining - this practically means the ultra-extreme and massively unqualified Vance could (in effect) be President. This is something #harriswalz should highlight more. @KamalaHarrisWin
