I'm certain Trump said he was the only one who could free Evan, and without doing a deal. Is Putin losing confidence?
By Patriotism Go To PostHow much of both are they getting back?All of them, just not all at once.
Damn Paul Whelan been there for a minute and it looked like he might not ever get out.
Looking forward to Fox news combing over if it was worth it to give up x murderers for these two fine white gentleman.

Washington post refereed to it as "entering a new phase" of the election.
“Earlier this week, look up the clip, she went down to Georgia and started talking with a fake Southern accent,” Vance said in Glendale, near Phoenix. “What the hell is that all about? Kamala Harris grew up in Canada. They don’t talk like that in Vancouver or Quebec or wherever she came from, doesn’t matter.”When they go campaigning without their hooded robe
He's clearly trying to court Indian voters and put a divide between her and them. You know, one of the "good minorities". It's not even subtle. That message isn't for his white audience.

I think it's also for his white audience. He gives them cover and empowers them to say / think the same things.
Can't wait til we find out JD Vance encourages his kids to speak in an Indian accent in front of their mother's family

It was there since day 1 in 2015. Social media, Fox News, and all the rich people who want to use him.
Or are you saying he’s leaning even more into the social media stuff?

I feel like during his rise, he created the social media narratives and memes that were used. At the very least it was symbiotic. Currently he resorts more to using whatever social media comes up with as a platform.
By Fenderputty Go To PostI feel like during his rise, he created the social media narratives and memes that were used. At the very least it was symbiotic. Currently he resorts more to using whatever social media comes up with as a platform.The thing that people who liked Trump liked about him in 2016 was that he would "say what everyone was thinking" (where "everyone" meant Fox News addled Republicans) regardless of whether it toed the party line, so I guess him just uncritically repeating the last thing he read/saw has always been there to some extent. But I feel like there's a difference between that, and seeing talking points used by random low Twitter follower blue check accounts unskewing the polls show up a few days later in his stump speeches. It feels like he's gotten way too online (or at least, he's listening to people who are way too online, which is probably how we got the Vance pick in the first place). I don't think him being racist, sexist, homophobic, fascist, or dumb is going to alienate him with his base, but him talking like a loser might.

If anything can be learned from online conspiracies becoming so mass market these days, is that it's very easy to fall into it.
Guy who believed he's a victim finds victimization against him in everything and seeks out followers that tell him he's a victim and dig up more talking points that he's a victim etc etc etc

If anything can be learned from online conspiracies becoming so mass market these days, is that it's very easy to fall into it.Trump has been complaining about how "unfair" his treatment is since the 2016 cycle. How polls are "rigged," etc. I think that kind of victimhood resonates with the base, it's the "elites" who want to keep you down. The part that's different is that he apparently no longer knows how to do what should be a layup for him (shitting on his handpicked Groyper adjacent freak the moment he becomes a liability, in a way that somehow endears Trump to the base). He just sounds like a nerd quoting the right wing version of Nate Silver, he's gonna break out the crosstabs on his next stump speech complaining about D +3 oversampling or whatever. I mean maybe I'm wrong and that's what the Republican base wants right now, but it feels to me like they might not be quite as enthusiastic about him personally as they were in 2016 and 2020.

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, one of the front-runners to be Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate, has abruptly canceled a three-event fund-raising swing through the Hamptons just days before Ms. Harris is expected to make her selection.boo...

Out of all the Battle Ground and winnable states, PA needs the biggest boost. I personally think that is a poor decision because VP picks don't normally move the needle, but it at least tracks some sort of logic.
