  1. Good description of Trump in the recent debate:

    >For more than 90 minutes Trump had almost no substantive responses to [Harris’s] interventions and rebuttals as he lied, prevaricated, and acted like a broken computer spouting out conspiracy theories and obvious lies from some of the deepest sewers of the right-wing echo chamber.

    Who could have predicted that this bully would be the exact same as every other bully in history

    Maybe rhetorically, but them putting all their eggs in the SCOTUS basket might make all that irrelevant. Geez if only there was somebody people could have done to stop that from happening, maybe something about 8 years ago…

    How did they not realize this before? FFS I swear I don’t understand the image people apparently have of Trump. He’s not dominant. He’s not strong. He’s NEVER been anything more than a dumb bully failing his way up the ladder. He’s the easiest, stupidest person in the world to shake down.

    His whole strong man image evaporated on that debate stage.

    She was smarter, stronger and more prepared.

    She just verbally walked him around the stage like a puppy.

    This is partially why Republicans are crying for Dems to stop talking about Trump’s dangerous Project 2025. We are “punching back” at it. Keep talking about what they are going to do if trump wins!

    He couldn’t even fucking look at her at the debate, he is a weak fucker through and through.

  8. If Kamala can’t stand up to Trump, how is she gonna run the country?

    Trump and his cult are bullies and cowards.

    With that in mind, they’ll fold…eventually. Usually when you corner a feral animal their first instinct is to last out, and when that fails, fold.

    Look what happened January 6th and how long it took for Trump to fold after. Trump losing 2024 election would make me unbelievably happy; however, we have to be ready because I think the chaos that will ensue will be astronomical and we should be ready for them to try anything.

  10. You’d think it would occur to the 70 million that voted for that clown the last time.

    > Trump’s main advantage has been that he’s regarded as a “stronger” leader.

    To shamelessly appropriate from the legal world, *if the facts are on your side, pound the facts. If the policy is on your side, pound the policy. If neither the facts nor the policy are on your side, pound the table.*

    The obvious outcome from the Clinton debates was that Republicans didn’t care what was said, it was how loudly, forcefully and disrespectfully that counted. Basically, how much Trump dominated. It’s all they had and they were more than happy to take that as a win.

    Biden couldn’t compete on that ground, so Trump was ok. Harris finally did what was necessary and brought the force of personality to burst that bubble and show that he can dominated by someone they desperately need to feel is inferior to Trump and by extension, them. It was so public and so comprehensive, Republicans are struggling to maintain their fiction of Trump as a strong man now Harris has proven she can bang a table louder than him as well have facts and policies on her side. They’ve had to try and find shelter in outright lies and that’s not working out well for them.

  12. The whole “They go low, we go high”. You have to fight a bully head on and they are usually cowards afterwards.

    I’m sure Democrats have known this but it’s taken them wayyy too long to find a candidate good enough to tear down Trump… Which is sad in itself but not totally their fault. The primaries picked Biden by a landslide and unfortunately he’s past his prime.

    It does seem democrats have locked in so it feels good and i’m hoping this ignites voters and first time voters alike.

  14. DonOld, lost in 2020, he lost the insurgency, he lost his case, he lost the debate.

    DonOld insulted my Mexican friends, my black neighbors, my old white colleagues , my female teachers, my Indian family, my vets who gave their lives for me, my local first responders, my lgbtq friends, my local journalists,

    So Kamala go for it for all our sake get that bastard

  15. Trump is about as dominant as a bag of filled diapers dangling halfway out of a dumpster in the summer heat.

    > When Harris talked about the crowd sizes she symbolically and psychologically castrated him

    Yay! Not surprised he was squirming. Seems like Dickless Don has never recovered

  17. Republicans are well organized. Better to treat them as mafia than bullies.

  18. I don’t see the Republicans folding. If anything they are doubling and tripling down on their lies and turning every accusations right back onto Democrats. WE are the ones now who need to “tone down the violent rhetoric” and WE are the ones trying to steal the election and WE are the ones who are responsible for assassination attempts and WE are the ones responsible for Haitians eating dogs and cats… it’s everywhere on social media. Democrats never did learn how to control a narrative and Republicans are masters of it. And don’t, for one moment, believe polls or headlines that claim Democrats are ahead… media isn’t our friend either. The only way Project 2025 is defeated and Trump doesn’t end up back in the White House… is for Democrats to vote in such overwhelming numbers that there is no question but that the Republican agenda is unacceptable to a vast majority.
