#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.

Choosing MN Gov #TimWalz as her running mate reinforces the move away from clichés about “coastal politics” & “cultural elites.” Instead, she wants to fight on specific, #practical measures #government can take to #ImproveLives, from #FamilyLeave to expansions of #HealthCoverage. Both #Harris & #Walz are speaking a #soothing& — to pick up on #Democrats’ favorite #virtue these days — #joyful language of #patriotism & national #unity.

You could tell the #Trump campaign was thrown off by the #Walz pick when the #GOP’s VP pick, #JDVance, attacked the #camo-wearing, #gun-owning, #smalltown#Midwestern #schoolteacher as a “#SanFrancisco-style #liberal.”
Never mind that #Vance lived in the #BayArea for about 4yrs while Minnesota’s Walz visited the place for the 1st time only last month. The tired misfire speaks to how dependent the GOP is on stereotypes about who “ #liberals” are & what “ #liberalism” means.
