Because they're not

 

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.

Border Czar Kamala Harris

 




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.

Trump says he's still against the electric car mandate, Musk says he's giving money to promote Trump, just not $45 million a month

“I have a good relationship with him, I think he’s a nice guy,” Trump said of Musk during a call-in interview on Fox News.
 
“Somebody told me he was going to give me 45 million [dollars] a month. I said, ‘That sounds like a lot, even for Elon, that’s a lot,’” the Republican presidential nominee said.
 
But Musk “never told me he was giving [$45 million],” he said.
 
“But he did say, ‘I strongly endorse you,’ despite the fact that I’m against the electric car mandate,” Trump said, referring to the Biden administration’s policies aimed at prioritizing electric vehicles over gas-powered vehicles. ...

But Musk, in an interview with conservative public figure Jordan Peterson, said the figure reported by the Journal was “simply not true.”
 
“I’m not donating $45 million a month to Trump,” Musk said in that interview, which was posted Monday on X, the social media site he owns. ...

In an X post Tuesday night, Musk wrote, “I am making some donations to America PAC, but at a much lower level.” He asserted that most Republicans align with the PAC’s key values of “supporting a meritocracy & individual freedom.”

Fetterman really knows how to troll the Hamas wing of the Democrat Party

 



A lot of Kamala Harris information is being scrubbed from the internet as we speak, like govtrack's 2019 assessment of her as the "most politically left compared to all Senators"

 



Senator John Fetterman, D-PA, wears a suit to honor Bibi Netanyahu at speech to joint session of Congress boycotted by Democrats

 


AXIOS caught contradicting itself about Border Czar Kamala Harris was epic this morning on X

 



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

Lying by omission, a Democrat specialty.

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.

 


GM again delays EV truck plant, this time to mid-2026 after delaying it to late 2025 lol

 


 DETROIT – General Motors said Tuesday it is again slowing its plans for all-electric vehicles by further delaying a second U.S. electric truck plant and the Buick brand’s first EV. ...

GM’s U.S. EV deliveries increased 40% during the second quarter compared with a year earlier to 21,930 units. Still, EVs made up only 3.2% of its total second-quarter U.S. sales.

Here.

And here:

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

CNBC: Kamala rally draws 3,000! . . . excitement is palpable! lol

 . . . the single-biggest rally of the 2024 cycle for a Democratic presidential candidate! lol.

Wikipedia insists Kamala Harris' father Donald Harris isn't a Marxist, based on a New York Times article which says no such thing

Wikipedia here (at least right now lol):
 
 
Harris's economic philosophy was critical of mainstream economics and questioned orthodox assumptions. He was once erroneously described as a "Marxist scholar".[15]
 
15. [Barry, Ellen (August 21, 2020). "Kamala Harris's father, a footnote in her speeches, is a prominent economist". The New York Times. Retrieved August 24, 2020.
 
 
 
 
Despite his low profile in the election cycle, Dr. Harris is not an obscure figure. He was the first Black scholar to receive tenure in Stanford’s economics department, and a prominent critic of mainstream economic theory from the left. The Stanford Daily, reporting in 1976, described him as a “Marxist scholar,” and said there was some opposition to granting him tenure because he was “too charismatic, a pied piper leading students astray from neo-Classical economics.”
 
In the 1970s "Marxians" flew under the banner of "heterodox economics" to avoid opprobrium, and were promoted by entities such as the Union for Radical Political Economics which promoted Harris at Stanford, and, um, Harris' students in 1974 sure thought he was one, lol:
 

 
 

Biden was in his third trimester

 


DEI-obsessed US Secret Service director resigns after she was "blasted" lol

Trump, who is the Republican nominee for president, narrowly avoided being killed in the shooting by 20-year-old gunman Thomas Crooks. One rally attended died in the shooting, and two men were critically injured.

Here.

 


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.”
