She's toast because the label stuck long ago and they can't get it off
James Piereson: Trump will win by six points and both houses of Congress
Notwithstanding the euphoria today, Trump will win the election by six points—forty-nine to forty-three percent—winning 339 electoral votes, including all of the so-called swing states, plus the Democratic-leaning states of Virginia, Minnesota, and New Hampshire. Republicans will pick up three or four seats in the Senate and perhaps twenty seats in the House, giving them safe majorities in both chambers. This will give Trump the margins he needs to implement a good piece of his agenda in 2025 and 2026.

What a hoot, man: 46% of U.S. EV owners claimed they were likely to switch back to internal combustion engine vehicles, well above the 29% global average
In addition to the McKinsey data on current EV owners, a recent Gallup poll found fewer non-EV owners in the U.S. saying they might consider an EV purchase, down from 43% in 2023 to 35% in 2024. The percentage of American adults who do not intend to buy an EV went up from 41% to 48% year over year.

Wisconsin swing voters don't trust Kamala Harris because she hid the truth of Joe Biden's condition, just like she hid evidence from defense attorneys in 2010 resulting in 600+ cases tossed out
The New York Post, August 12, 2020, here:
One of Harris’ worst scandals came in 2010 when a technician was caught skimming cocaine from a crime lab and mishandling evidence. A judge ruled her office failed to disclose that information to defense attorneys, causing more than 600 drug-related cases to get tossed out.

Adoption of EVs, which remain costly to produce and purchase, has been slower than many expected.

Wikipedia insists Kamala Harris' father Donald Harris isn't a Marxist, based on a New York Times article which says no such thing
DEI-obsessed US Secret Service director resigns after she was "blasted" lol

The chaos and division Joe's bad debate spawned is the real force driving Democrats' headlong rush to settle for Harris and end the bad publicity of the drama
Democrats seem more intent now to cut out the drama before the convention and settle on Biden’s chosen successor, Harris. ... The DNC is still pursuing a virtual nomination of their presidential ticket ahead of the convention that begins in nearly a month, with a presidential candidate to be decided by Aug. 7.

Bloomberg is reporting Kamala Harris has the nomination clinched
Kamala Harris has more than enough pledged delegates to clinch the Democratic presidential nomination, following an extraordinary two-day blitz that saw the vice president consolidate her party’s backing to challenge Donald Trump in November.
Harris sealed her status as the presumptive nominee Monday night after crossing the magic number of 1,976 pledged delegates, according to an unofficial Associated Press tally. While delegates who indicated their support are not required to back her nomination, the achievement — and lack of credible opposition — underscores the vice president’s hold on the Democratic ticket.

But look at those big stretches of light blue in places like New York, Michigan, and Illinois, among others. The resistance to Kamala Harris is real, even in California.
Democrats were lied to by Biden about the necessity of a virtual roll call of delegates by Aug 7, and now that he's out Democrats are still lying about it
There is no need for a virtual roll call before the convention, unless you're trying to stop debate.
Ohio moved its deadline to Aug 23, after the Democrat convention.
This happened AT THE END OF MAY already lol.
With the passage of the Biden ballot fix in the state, the DNC plan in not necessary -- however the DNC said it is planning to move forward with its virtual roll call nomination of Biden ahead of Aug. 7, Ohio's original deadline.
Delegates to the Democratic Convention in Chicago can't speak freely in the Democrat Party for fear of being removed by the gang leaders
The fix was in already on Sunday after Biden withdrew and endorsed Kamala Harris.
All 50 state chairs of the party quickly asserted their endorsement of Harris, according to Reuters.
But the blessed GRAUNIAD found out the truth: Delegates who aren't down for the Harris Cause fear having their delegate status revoked by those state chairs.
It's a gang, not democracy.
Delegates are, by and large, local volunteers expected to spend thousands of dollars to fly to Chicago and attend the convention. It’s often viewed as a reward for activism and dedication, but it’s typically a far less consequential role than it might be next month.
One delegate who isn’t yet old enough to drink expressed his mounting anxiety about how things are unfolding and how little has been predictable.
“I’m a young, young person,” said the delegate, who requested anonymity because he feared being replaced by his state chair. “This is my first convention … And this is scary. It’s super anxiety-inducing, and crazy, and so much.”
