I'm all in': Harris running mate short-lister Gov. Tim Walz is eager to take on Trump
Via: TᵢG • News & Politics • 17 Comments • 4 Likes • 5 hours ago
“A robber baron and a venture capitalist trying to say they understand who we are ... they do not know who we are.”
Gov Walz has been a favorite of mine for a while. Even though he at best might be VP, just contrast this individual with Trump in terms of coherence, intelligence, credibility, presidential presence, positivity, etc. The USA deserves a president and vice-president who are sharp, positive, and...
Fit vs. Unfit

“One person will be elected PotUS in 2024. Will it be the one fit to serve or the run demonstrably unfit to serve?”
If Harris (or almost any other viable candidate) becomes the nominee then the first defining difference between she and Trump will be: Fit vs Unfit. Trump is a scoundrel. He is a vindictive narcissist holding the distinction as the only PotUS in US history who has attempted to steal a US...

Ignore the title since it is too extreme. A more appropriate title would be: The SCotuS Contradicts the CotUS and Gives a Rogue PotUS Dangerous Powers.

“The Court effectively creates a law-free zone around the president, upsetting the status quo that has existed since the Founding. This new...”
There is a twisted irony in saying, as the majority does, that the person charged with “tak[ing] Care that the laws be faithfully executed” can break them with impunity. The Ruling This case originated from a request late in 2023 by Jack Smith for the SCotUS to preemptively rule on the then...

“He [Trump] is a con-artist. Friends do not let friends vote for a con-artist.”
Always good to be reminded that modern politicians are slimy. Trump's likely V.P. picks all started out being honest about Trump but now kiss his ring.

“The only thing Trump is guilty of is being the greatest president since Abraham Lincoln -- Roger Stone”
The ending @13:30 is particularly amusing. A nice portrayal of how badly Trump supporters do not realize how Trump has and continues to con them.

“Trump's campaign and affiliated committees have spent more than $800,000 at Trump properties since the start of 2023.”
If true, this would not surprise me in the slightest. Indeed, anyone who finds this to be out of character for Trump is entirely out of touch with this scoundrel.
