Mike Johnson and the GOP are putting forward multiple really silly challenges to Kamala's candidacy. They're saying she shouldn't be eligible to appear on the ballot, and separately, Trump is suing to say that she shouldn't be able to access the former Biden/Harris campaign funds. All of these challenges are based on hooey and are very likely to fail, but it's an example of how things go these days I guess.

I think election financing rules might be a challenge, since people were giving money to Biden, not Harris. Also, who is on the ballot and how they are choosen are a part of the election laws within each state, that has deadlines that may have been violated. It might be silly to you, but violating the election laws in the states is something to consider. Personally, I don't care whether she is on the ballot or not, nor do I care if she gets Biden's money or not.

Yeah this community note is a real owning. There's a difference between Axios *calling* her the "border czar" and her actually being given some kind of appointment, but I agree that it's sloppy.

Why is the media trying so hard to gaslight everyone by saying Kamala was never the "border czar"? It should open up some people's eyes on to what kind of liars they are.

Trump is suing? Why would he do that? Why would he bother? All courts are fake and fraudulent according to him. Whatever they decide has to be a travesty of justice.

That's you using absolute wording, not him.

Harris has better numbers than Biden among black and Hispanic voters. AZ, NV, GA back on the menu?

She's killing it right now. Let's see how Trump counters.
I saw him counter yesterday in a rally and it was as ugly as you could imagine. Lie after lie and then he has the gall to nickname Kamala "Lyin'"! It was absolutely disgusting. I had to change the channel.

As we all know, Trump likes to project his faults onto others. If he calls them a liar enough it will cancel out all his lies. If he calls them a criminal enough it will cancel all his crimes.

People are pretty excited about Harris?

This is yet another example where you will accept very low-quality informational content if it aligns with what you want to be true. I can't fathom why you would think some rando retweeting an informal Dane Cook post somehow was reflective of where people are at for the 2024 election. You really consider this informative?

Here is where you have someone(Dane Cook), that isn't political, just asking random people that follow him on TikTok. Can you think of a better way to get real results from real people?

It's completely unscientific. I have no idea what sort of "real people" watch Dane Cook on Tiktok and what determines the algorithm there. It just isn't meaningful.

But a poll done by CNN or NYT of their viewers/readers without any transparency is completely legit?

Remember when I said Kamala would wipe the floor with Trump in a debate? I’m sure In2 does. Trump is running scared.

I genuinely don't think he's scared at all about Kamala. I think, as do a lot of people, that Kamala is just a placeholder and not worth the effort.

Sorry dude, that’s wishful thinking. She ain’t going anywhere. Face the facts. You are delusional if you think she is a placeholder at this point.

I'm not delusional. The polls put out and the breathless admiration by the media and normally sane Dems is delusional. I could be wrong, but it's not delusional.

Dude, no. She’s the candidate whether you like it or not. Anybody is crazy to think otherwise at this point.
