Girl getting her post-divorce bag for 2025.

I'm guessing she renegotiated her contract sometime in 2023 when it became a little weird--even in Trump world--that she was completely invisible. If he loses in November, I wonder what the terms are. "Mutual, amicable" public divorce and the password to one of his donation slush funds?

Part of me thinks she fucked up waiting this long because now Barron is 18, so no child support, but I'm guessing they agreed to stay together until after the 2024 election and she will get some sort of settlement, but she's going to have to get her bag with the book and TV deals to keep up her lifestyle.

I assume her Secret Service boyfriend only makes low 6 figs.

I assume that she's got enough blackmail information that she'll have a very nice settlement and allowance into perpetuity.

I hope she hires people practiced in the art of squeezing blood from turnips.

I think she has some Russian contacts that would happily squeeze this particular turnip.

And I'm here for it.

The reason I feel that Harris is definitely going to win is that I’ve never in my lifetime seen members of the opposing party supporting a candidate at this level. I feel like the never-trumpers this cycle should at least offset or possibly even exceed the trump-only cultists.

100% this.

The early vote tracker for Wisconsin looks good so far - Milwaukee is outdoing Madison, and Dems usually do really well statewide when Milwaukee goes HAM.  The times Dems struggle in Wisconsin is when Milwaukee doesn't do enough.

She’ll sell herself off to some Saudi Shiek.

Not new.

And also.....if you published that plan and told them "this is what China is trying to do," 1) it would be kinda accurate (creating cities out of whole cloth is a thing they've actually tried to do), and 2) they would freak out, bug-eyed, condemning it as commie central planning bullshit and such.

But Trump proposes it, and it should be added to the Bible as a new gospel.

The dumbest.  Fucking.  People.

Yeah my instant reaction to that was that it sounded like what I read in history books at UT about Marx & Lenin in Russia. Forty years ago, hell even 25 years ago if he had spouted that crap to a group of Republicans, the response would have overwhelmingly been something along the lines of "GTFO with that Communist bullshit".

What's weird about it is that I don't think it plays particularly well to his base.  I don't think the residents of Bumfuck, USA are looking for another city.

So his wife is a baby murderer and his running mate's wife is a "darkie."

By "wife," I assume you mean his "human wife" into whom he "inserts his seed."

Vance is coming across kinda weird.

I keep seeing stuff like this, and I have no idea how to interpret it.

I am a little concerned this will do more harm with the labor and others than it will help with those it helps.

I've never liked this policy.  It's a hand out to the highly educated at the expense of the less educated.

Well, in a Silo, maybe. I view it more as a rebuke of predatory college lending. That being said, Biden has worked hard to make huge incentives for folks to go to trade school, affordably and manufacturing industries in general. How is this not a boon to labor, and over worked laborers?

If anyone is worried about that kind of spin then just have Harris announce Farm Loan Forgiveness as a major platform plank. I mean they already get assistance but pull a page out of the Trump playbook and act like you invented it.

I don't think it'll be big news and there will be a lawsuit in Missouri that gets us back to the status quo within a week.

You and I both know the electorate is too dumb for this.

"This is significant."

No, it's not. 

Nothing short of Trump calling Kamala the hard "-er" will pull people off of Trump at this point. And, even then, it would just mean Kamala would win PA by a more comfortable 3-4%.

The only way to sway people is getting them to like Kamala and feel okay with voting for her. There's no October surprise big enough to be the last straw for people who weren't completely done with him after witnessing Nov 4, 2020 - Jan 6, 2021.
