Probably why he also cancelled his 60 Minutes interview. CBS wouldn’t give him the Kari Lake smear of Vaseline on the lens filter 

Yeah, he sounds very low key/energy in that first video. It's no secret he gets off on the adulation of a bigger audience than must what have been there in Milwaukee.

We just had Phil Cox talk to us at our conference - he runs Elon's America PAC. First off, he was a great speaker with great insights and for a guy that is clearly team Trump, he kept it about as neutral as you can imagine. It was refreshing.

Some interesting tidbits based on their internal polling - they feel strong about GA and AZ for Trump. Like outside margin of error. He also said PA and WI are outside the margin of error for Harris. MI and NC are the dead heats in their view. 

From COVID, PA has seen net migration from NY, bolstering their registered Dems. FL has shifted from +300k D to +1M R and a lot of that came from PA, WI - hence why they think they are both safe D states. AZ has seen CA Rs migrate. MI is a Muslim problem for the Democrats - they are pissed at the D party and they have no home with the Rs so they may stay home.

Senate goes R pretty clearly in their view. 

Apologies for the disorganized recap but it was a very interesting talk.

I don't know if I trust any of these people simply because everybody is grifting, and a lot of these folks have an audience of one or two people in mind.  Pretty easy to pump up the numbers, and when Trump loses, they know he'll claim it was rigged, and Leon will believe that.

From the responses ...

 

A friend has MAGA parents, so he had a sign made that looks like other Trump signs, but it has Vance's name in a large font, and Trump's in a smaller font, and he put it in their yard.  He said it confused them, LOL.

I would love for that to take off, and for Trump to get wind of something like that.

Quote

Donald Trump’s campaign repeatedly attacked 60 Minutes’ credibility after the storied news magazine announced on Tuesday night that the former president had weaseled out of a previously scheduled sit-down interview. After CBS News said that the Trump campaign had “decided not to participate” after “initially accepting 60 Minutes’ request for an interview,” which would have been conducted by veteran correspondent Scott Pelley. “Fake News,” Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung scoffed to CNN in response. “60 Minutes begged for an interview, even after they were caught lying about Hunter Biden’s laptop back in 2020. There were initial discussions, but nothing was ever scheduled or locked in.”

 

Quote

Asked by the network if there was any chance Trump might still sit for the interview, Cheung responded, “Now that they’ve lied about the interaction, they just f--cked themselves.” Apparently on a roll, Cheung kept going on X. “60 Minutes is a relic of the past, unable to keep up with the times and changing media environment, instead turning into liberal, biased propaganda,” he spat in a tweet. “Nobody ever says, ‘Oh, did you see what happened on 60 Minutes?’ Instead, people usually ask, ‘60 Minutes is still on?’” In May, the program wrapped its 50th consecutive season as TV’s No. 1 news program. Last month, its 57th season premiere drew in more than 10 million viewers, outpacing the Emmy Awards.

I heard a Democratic consultant on NPR this morning use the term "poller coaster."  I chuckled.

So barring scandals or unplanned/unannounced events or fat fuck dropping dead, the only big ticket items left that the candidates directly control between now and November 6 are:

60 Minutes interview with Harris (10/7)
Dueling Univision townhalls (Trump 10/8, Harris 10/10)
"Second Presidential Debate" that may just be Harris debating an empty podium or a town hall (10/23) if the network goes through with it still

With our luck, Trump will be at the Texas v. Georgia game with Ted Cruz.

He's in Houston today for a private fundraiser with Tilman.  Hoping he doesn't go to the Astros game.

"When someone allows people to have a platform"

Didn't Vance spend like half the debate last night crying about censorship?

  • Popular Post

We seriously need some real campaign finance reform in this country. When Walz was announced I bought a yard sign and gave a little on top and ever since I get a dozen texts and emails every single day just begging for me to give a little bit more. I can definitely see people who don’t follow politics much but found a reason this cycle to give $25 being completely turned off and reverting to a “both sides” mentality because it really does feel just about money. No wonder voter participation in this country is so low.

I get like 3 or 4 texts a day.  It is a beating.

I'd like for mega-donor and corporate sponsorship of politicians to be banned.  Then I'd be fine with being bludgeoned by fundraising texts by politicians every hour.

Yeah, I donate and then immediately STOP the messages and send the emails to junk. 

Like I did my part, leave me alone.  Like your algorithm can't see that I am a monthly recurring donor? Stop asking me for more, go ask a one-time donor to make another contribution.

I got three texts just during the debate.  

Apparently Kamala can’t do this without me, which I’m totally honored by of course, but I wonder what plan B is when I ignored it.

And she’s losing in all the polls and only an extra $5 can turn it around. Just exhausting.

all y'all whining about the texts but MAGA treats it as a reminder to tithe.
