"JD #Vance’s Combative Style Confounds Democrats but Pleases #Trump"
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/31/us/politics/jd-vance-trump-vp.html

The #NYTimes ( @nytimes) doesn't understand what "confounds" means. Dems are not confounded by Vance's rhetoric. They understand it but denounce, refute, and ridicule it.

By contrast. Trump and Vance are confounded by #Harris and #Walz. They're floundering for an effective line of attack.

“You're the greatest cutter," #Trump said during the conversation. "I mean, I look at what you do. You walk in, you just say: 'You want to quit?' They go on strike - I won't mention the name of the company - but they go on strike. And you say: 'That's okay, you're all gone.'"

#Musk chuckled but did not respond to Trump's comments.

Under federal law, workers can’t be fired for going on strike, & threatening to do so is illegal under the National Labor Relations Act, the UAW said.

"Honey. He's back. That creepy old guy who tried to sell us baseball cards and gold sneakers."

#Walz on #Trump

“He sows chaos and division, and that’s to say nothing of his record as president. He froze in the face of the Covid crisis. He drove our economy into the ground. And make no mistake, violent crime was up under Donald Trump,” Walz said.

“That’s not even counting the crimes he committed.”

Zowie.

@tchambers @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews Wahoo... in one month #Trump pulled in 69% of what #Kamala#Harris pulled in in one week for her Presidential campaign. Keep it up #,la
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.

I'm a blue voter who welcomes this news. I admire Biden's record. But there's an important distinction between the past and the future, and another between governing and campaigning. We need the candidate with the very best chance to beat #Trump.
