McCarthy tells Trump to stop questioning size of Harris’s crowds
The Hill ^ | 08/12/2024 | Sarah Fortinsky

Posted on 08/12/2024 11:00:35 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) says former President Trump should stop questioning the size of Vice President Harris’s crowds at her campaign rallies and instead focus on her as a candidate.

“You’ve got to make this race not on personalities,” McCarthy said Monday in an interview on Fox News. “Stop questioning the size of her crowds and start questioning her position, when it comes to: What did she do as [California] attorney general on crime? … What did she do when she was supposed to take care of the border as a czar?”

The former Speaker said Trump should also hit Harris on inflation, noting she was the tiebreaking vote on key legislation that has come to define the Biden-Harris administration. He also urged Trump to attack Harris for changing her position on certain policy views in the last couple of years.

Trump is ‘ambidextrous’.

He can chew gum and walk at the same time.

Trump can question the size of Kamala’s crowds and question and attack her on her positions on the issues.

Telling the truth matters, no matter what the issue. Crowd size matters, since the meida and democrats will use any decent size Kkamala rally to point to how popular she is or is becoming. The media dismisses Trump’s rally sizes, but will mention any Kamala ‘crowd’ as very significant. Therefore, question everything and anything related to Kamala and/or her campaign.

Tell me slick, why is it A-OK for the Communist left to constantly talk about the size of Trump’s crowds?

Been there done that almost 4 years ago. It’s not important anymore.

Trump also LOST to a senile dope who was hiding in a basement.

You want to say he didn’t lose? Well one way or the other he was not president for the last 4 years.

He’s 1-1 in elections.

That’s reality.

He’s fortunate that he’s positioned to win this thing. Now he needs to tighten up his act.

That’s just reality, and all I want is a Trump victory.

Well for one, he walked right into an internet hoax yesterday, it should have been checked and vetted before he posted that fake crowd stuff.

Kamala is successfully hiding her fears that Emhoff might hit
the sheets with another sex-crazed ditz while Kam is on the campaign trail.

She has a lot of help......must be dozens of journos out there
anxious to be the one to catch Kammie’s hubby with his pants down.


With Heels history, Doug the cuck is probably more concerned that some snoop will catch Harris with her pants down while on the road.

She can’t help herself. Never has been able to..

However true it may be, no one cares about the size of Kamala’s crowds or how dumb she is, what they care about is how Trump will improve things. Issues, Issues, Issues, is all that matters, daily bombard the public about the border, price of food, price of gas, price of housing, etc. The only non-economic issue I would hammer Kamala about would be her refusal to answer questions from anyone.

Agreed. The economy, the border, and safety should be relentlessly addressed.

I’m sorry but that’s not the way to do it.
Plenty of others are on all the shows, twitter, etc. They can do the dirty work.

Trump and Vance need to focus on the high level issues and dirty work.

Even if it is from McCarthy, it’s still good advice.

As much as I love The Donald, McCarthy is right. The “my thing is bigger than yours” should stop. Hammer policies.

He’s not wrong - Trump should have people in his camp going after stuff like Kamala’s crowds (real or AI-generated). Trump himself should be going after Kamala herself.

Trump’s obsession with crowd size is becoming tiresome. Several of his advisors have suggested he tone it down on this issue.
