Harris campaign

Tim Walz is the real-life definition of an MSNBC dad

Well, we knew it would only take so long for even a media-ensconced, Hollywood-produced, consultant stage-managed Kamala Harris to make the kind of mistake that reveals how out of touch she's been with the nation's politics for her entire career. You can dodge every question and interview and rely on the spin to do you all the favors, but you still have to make choices that reveal who you are. And the choice of Tim Walz is MSNBC's idea of what a Midwestern centrist looks like, as if being a Carhartt-clad coach makes up for all the policy prescriptions that play on the smug sympathies of sanctimonious simpletons in the Sauvignon Blanc-socialist set.  https://twitter.com/tomselliott/status/1821138274498314687?

Kamala’s ABC connection

Former president Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are at odds over where and when the pair will debate, with Trump rejecting a debate he had previously scheduled with President Joe Biden on September 10, hosted by ABC News. Instead, Trump says he will only debate Harris on September 4 in a debate hosted by Fox News: “I’ll see her on September 4th or, I won’t see her at all,” he wrote on Truth Social. Harris has accused Trump of “playing games” and is keen to stick with the ABC debate. Trump has given two reasons as to why the ABC debate is no longer on the table for him. First, he agreed to that debate with Biden, not Harris. Second, he is in active litigation against ABC News and anchor George Stephanopoulos (or, as Trump calls him, “Slopadopoulos”).
