I’m usually very supportive of protests but I must admit that I find this annoying when we’re trying to keep a narcissistic crackpot and his coterie of fascist grifters out of power.

Not counter-protesting Jan 6 proved to be one of the smartest decisions in recent memory and I’d like to see more of that.

Elon Musk is a professional disseminator of election disinformation. Just something to remember during his love fest with Weird Donald later today.
The multi-billionaire will do anything to elect Trump who promises additional tax breaks for the filthy rich.

⬆️ >> Rashida #Tlaib is #Palestinian

#FFS, she is a #US citizen and a #MemberOfCongress

Tlaib is puting the interests of #Palestine ahead of the interests of the country she took an oath to serve. That's not even in dispute.

US #Election2024 is about US FIRST, not #Israel, not #Palestine

If our political press didn't instinctively normalize Trump and edit his ramblings into something linear and semi-coherent, I think his consistent inability to answer a simple question would be a much bigger story than a normal candidate not doing a formal presser in two weeks.

Has he *ever* given an intelligible answer to a question? It's weird not to.

Note that Haake says he only posted this because he knew *the question* was hard to follow.

Garrett Haake posts an excerpt of a transcript because he “understand[s] the questions at today's news conference were very hard to hear":

+++ON BANNING MIFEPRISTONE +++ 

14;54;47 HAAKE: There are other things the federal government can do, not just a ban. Would you direct your FDA, for example, to revoke access to mifepristone? That's one of the things that's been discussed. 

14:54:54 TRUMP: You could do things that will be - would supplement absolutely and those things are pretty open and humane, but you have to be able to have a vote. And all I want to do is give everybody a vote, and the votes are taking place right now as we speak - 

14;55;11 HAAKE: Is that something that you would
consider? 

14;55;11 TRUMP: There are many things on a humane basis that you can do outside of that, but you also have to give a vote, and the people are going to say -

Are you a non-US citizen, and wish you could vote for #KamalaHarris?

We need your help!

Unfortunately you can't vote in the US #Election2024, but you probably know an American or dual citizen who can!

US citizens can #vote from wherever they live. Tell all your American friends anywhere in the world to #register and request their ballots at https://voteabroad.org/SocMediaVFA

Voter turnout in 2020
Biden 81M #Trump 74M

If via hard work, motivation and donations the turnout for Harris could be increased to 90M then I doubt that the trump base could get more than 80M.

There are at least 9M young people who do not regularily vote.
You just have to connect with them.

It would be so cool if 100M would vote for Harris.

You can do it #USA.
Onward and upward.
