He has put in policies on his properties around NY that you could claim were designed to keep other ethnicities out especially black people.
It's not even "you could claim" - he and his father were found to be in violation of housing laws multiple times by the justice department by implementing racially-discriminatory policies (for instance, having doormen say that there were no vacant properties for sale to non-white buyers, even when there were).

Proving that Trump was just as sharp back then as he is today, during a deposition where he was being interviewed by prosecutors, he spoke to one of them during a break and commented, "You wouldn't want to live with them either."

Look at how he talks in his tweets. How anyone would think to vote for this dumb ass for president is beyond me.

That's the Queen's English to some of his supporters. Listen to some of them talk during interviews.

I just hope Harris runs a better campaign this time - that's what sunk her in 2020.

So far it seems like she is. She's positioned herself as the "abortion rights" face of the Biden admin since 2022 and that argument, which is a winning one for Dems nationwide, will mean more coming from a woman. She's also spent a ton of time recently campaigning/giving speeches around the nation. And as part of the Biden admin she has his achievements to use in messaging and ads.

Democrats are taking a big risk here - they're giving away a big chunk of the incumbency bias,

Other than Biden she's the only one who would have any sort of incumbency bias/bonus as she's his VP. No other candidate would have that boost.

That said, they're taking a big angle of attack - Biden's age and continued mental capacity - off the table, and could very easily flip that on the Republicans now that they have a candidate in her 50s going up against someone who would be in his 80s before his term ends (and the contrast of a young woman of colour against yet another crusty old white guy is the exact contrast the Dems need).

Yes, Republicans are visibly mad that Biden dropped out and have been talking about how it's "illegal" for him to do so. They need Biden to stay in because their funding and ads have been built around shitting on Biden. She throws a wrench in their plans and given who they are their response is assuredly to be a racist one.

It's like Fox is run by the animated prosecutor that starts off "The Trial" from Pink Floyd's The Wall:

Good morning, Worm your honour
The crown will plainly show the prisoner
Who now stands before you
Was caught red-handed, showing feelings
Showing feelings of an almost human nature
This will not do

I'm pretty sure Obama carried more than 98% of the black vote nationwide.

If I remember correctly, Gore, Kerry and Obama got similar percentages of the black vote. Obama actually didn't have the highest percent of the 3 but did have the best raw numbers turnout. That was back when I thought looking up data would affect the argument of the conservatives in my family.

She could actually attack his age and rambling quite easily, and she just might.

Honestly, I believe in Harris. I wanted her in 2020. I know shes capable enough and I think shes no worse or awkward than Biden was. I just hope the country is ready to step up and add a few firsts to the list instead of reelect that orange bag of trash.

Something tells me if she attacks his age the media will be like:

"IS HARRIS AGEIST?!" HOW CAN SHE ATTACK SOMEONE'S AGE?!"

lmao

I mean something along the lines of Your concerns about Bidens age were well documented. But I talked to him every day without issueyet I cant understand a thing youre saying! Can you even make a cohesive statement?

Man, I've been seeing tweets of Fox News (quote retweeted because I don't follow that garbage) and they're really desperately trying to delegitimize Harris already by picking apart how she talks.

This reaction from Trump is one of the many reasons for the Harris move. He was trying to change his image to promote unity and other shit he doesnt believe in. All of that has been flushed down the toilet now that he is going against Harris. He is right back to be as insane as he always has been

Even he knows that using his style of "debate" on a black woman of color is going to lead to very, very bad optics. I hope Trump won't be able to contain himself and ends up saying something REALLY racist (not N-bomb level, but at bare minimum "you people"-level)

Is that actually going to sway any votes? Anyone who cares was never voting for him in the first place.

It'll sway swing voters, which is what presidential candidates need in order to win. Many swing voters have a very limited understanding of the issues, and only understand simple scandals like "But her emails!" and "Grab 'em by the pussy!" Or Roy Moore's creeping at underaged girls in the mall. Or a candidate dropping the N-bomb.

That would make her a martyr, which would make things even worse for 45.

Yeah, see, that's the thing. Assassins usually aren't thinking logically -- otherwise they wouldn't be attempting to murder a politician in broad daylight (guaranteed to be caught)
