Trump’s going to have a much tougher time with Harris than he would have with Biden. From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:
A week ago – it seems a year ago – Trump seemed inevitable. His margin of victory had increased such that, had he been able to maintain it, it would have been much harder to cheat around it.
Then the Senile Man was pushed aside – and now it feels like Trump’s star is waning, because he’s lost the thing that ensured his margin of victory (and thereby, his victory).
Had the Senile Man been allowed to stick around, his deterioration would have waxed and in tandem, political support for the Left would have waned. Not so much because the Left wants Trump but because the Left didn’t want the Senile Man. Two-thirds or so of Leftists said so in polls. It is hard to summon much ground-game action for a candidate that is unwanted by those expected to vote for him. Many of them would have done the same as conservatives did when the GOP brought out Mitt Romney as their candidate in 2012.
That is to say, they would have stayed home on election day.
Put another way, it is not hard to defeat a Mitt Romney. Especially if he is an obviously senile, unpleasantly cranky iteration of the same thing.
But the Left recovered its feral senses and got rid of the Senile Man. It was probably planned as there is no other explanation that makes sense for the weirdly hurried-up June “debate” that was more like a public execution. Old Joe had to go – and to do that, they had to show just how gone Old Joe is.
Within just a few weeks – and just in time to coronate his chosen (but not by anyone who voted for her) replacement – the Senile Man was shoved aside. In his place, what can be viewed as Trumpian Kryptonite.
The Long Marchers got their wishlist filled for years to grease the skids for historic gutsy call Kamal?
Those who said Trump don’t dwell on the conviction record are infiltrators?
Black Liberation Movement will burn something because they don’t want the Red Diaper Baby?
Makes sense that only those Buying Large Mansions organizers/leaders would have the big picture right out of das Kapital while the street enforcers are useful idiots.
