ort Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 It's refreshing that Tim Walz talks like a normal person. I thought his speech was very good, and I can't stand listening to politicians speak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air_Delivery Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 This is just an aside note but I find it interesting how quickly no one gives a shit about Trump's attempted assassination. 3 weeks later of a seismic event and everyone has basically collectively forgot about it. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They people who hate Trump aren't going to give a shit. Trump's side really really needed the shooter to be ANTIFA and not some right wing goof. They can't blame the left for getting him all fired up, the left don't give a shit, so life moves on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signifyin(g)Monkey Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 2 hours ago, CitizenVectron said: Yep, I agree as well. It's a good attack to use within the base (and a little bit to wink at in the mainstream), but shouldn't be overdone. However—and I'm basing this just off of their messaging so far—the Harris team seems to have a pretty good grasp of the zeitgeist and how to message things. So I'm not too worried about them going too far in on it. Even their focus on the future (and avoiding responding directly to Trump's attacks) is a good move so far. Yes, you need to paint Trump and Vance as the past, and strange, and wrong, etc, etc, but you most importantly need to paint a vision of the future to vote for. Yeah I'm honestly surprised at how well-run the campaign has been since Harris stepped in--they could have easily fumbled the transition. But the messaging has been spot on, both in attacking Trump/Vance and articulating an alternative or shoring up Harris's liabilities, and everything is just generally better-coordinated and better-disciplined than it was just a few weeks ago. It also seems like they're taking care not to repeat some of Clinton's mistakes. I have no idea what the explanation for this renaissance is, or whether it'll be enough on election day, but it's a pretty stark contrast to how the campaign was faring before Biden dropped out. Glad to see it, of course, but damn why couldn't they just have run the show this effectively from the get-go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in an Obama vs Trump situation President Obama was quick witted enough to keep his civility for the most part while simultaneously being quick witted enough to make Trump into a laughingstock which would have further flustered the soggy looking cheetoh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
