Is this headline really from The Washington Post? That can’t be good news for the Harris/Walz ticket.

It's against posting rules for it to be otherwise.

She’s getting way too much pushback from the Washington Post, CNN, and other MSM sources. Are they laying the groundwork for a switch out of the convention?

That's why Trump is waiting until after the Democrat convention to go after her.

If she is still the nominee, it's going to be like shooting fish in a barrel.

They must know something about the DNC Convention already that we don’t.

Maybe Camela is getting the boot.

Kamala has totally failed at rallys.

The Democrats Paid The Homeless To Fill Up The Atlanta Harris For President Rally

Kamala Harris blasted after Megan Thee Stallion sings X-rated lyrics at Atlanta rally: ‘Not a serious campaign’
Hindustan Times ^ | Jul 31, 2024 | Sumanti Sen

And just the other day she held a rally and when Slow Joe got up to speak - everyone left.

The reader comments are telling about left-think reasoning. Multiple complaints about negativity toward a Democrat candidate. The left cannot handle real constructive criticism. Many are threatening to jump ship from WAPO because or articles like this.

The truth displays the thin skin of the left.

I think she has had a few weeks in the ever lovin’ bosom of the RAT media pimping her as better than sliced bread. I think they may be seeing her without all that cover and it isn’t so good.

Forced Communism is not a gimmick.

If, God forbid, the Dems take the House, the Senate and the Presidency as pollster Frank Luntz says, they will have unbridled tyrannical power over all of us.

“[inflation] mainly because the pandemic snarled supply chains”

BS BS BS. Inflation is always a monetary phenomena. Too much money chasing too few goods.

Too much money was fedzilla pumping $5 TRILLION into the economy and paying people to stay home.

Too few goods was the states and fedzilla shutting down the economy and messing everything up for years.

It was the perfect inflationary storm caused mainly by Democrats (with a lot of so-called Republicans assisting).

Some are saying Joey is going to challenge her at the convention. Popcorn time maybe?

Maybe this was always a way to get rid of Kamala. Who knows?

Thank you for referencing that article E. Pluribus Unum.

"The times demand serious economic ideas. Harris supplies gimmicks."


Regarding economic ideas, Democratic and Republican Trump supporters are reminded that the states can repeal the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments (16&17A) at any time.

Repealing those amendments will not only put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes, a result of Congress's abuse of its 16A powers imo, but also stop federal government interference in the affairs of the sovereign states, effectively seceding ALL the states from the tyrannical, unconstitutionally big federal government.

In the meanwhile, since worthless incumbent career federal lawmakers and renegade states have repeatedly proven that they are enemies of the people imo, it is now up to Democratic and Republican Trump supporters to effectively "impeach and remove" ALL (exceptions?) state and federal lawmakers and executives in November.

In other words, it's now up to Democratic and Republican Trump supporters to support hopeful Trump 47 with a new, Constitution-respecting Congress, new state lawmakers too, not only so that he will not be a lame duck president from the first day of his second term, but will support him to quickly finish draining the swamp, including repealing 16&17A.

Finally, let's not allow the anti-Trump media try to fade our memories of what we witnessed on July 13.
