Trump thinks mispronouncing Kamala Harris’ name is a good attack route.

    All the way through this ordeal of Biden possibly, then actually, stepping down, I’ve been sort of lukewarm about the idea of Harris replacing him for one and only one reason - because I assumed that, since she’s the VP and the obvious first choice for a replacement, the Trump campaign would already have a complete hate campaign against her primed and ready to go, so could potentially catch her and the Dems flat-footed.

    It’s astonishing how wrong I was.

      Honestly, I think it’s because they underestimate black people and women. They would never have thought democrats would run a black woman, because they wouldn’t.

      And it’s not like Sleepy Joe was a brilliant name either, it just stuck for the flag buying morons.

      They have been making it up as they go since 2015. There’s no real plan other than win.

      Trump is such a narcissist that he cant actually comprehend someone not being selfish. Biden dropping out caught him completely off guard. It never occurred to him that a person would actually do that
