  1. Good. Trump is a horrible person and has terrible plans for the people of the United States.

    I mean you have 8 years of utter shit to post in the commercials.

    you don’t even have to have a narrator.

    Just show it.

    The fact millions of American think this orange turd is their savior makes me literally embarrassed to be American, I shit you not.

    Media intends to ramp up it’s campaign to cast Democrats as Bad Guys for finally growing spines and fighting fire with fire. Let the pearl clutching begin.

  4. Trump’s followers are easily triggered by hate and fear. There is plenty to fear in Trump. Use those things against him.

    I’d hammer him the last two weeks on age and mental/emotional instability. If you’re truly undecided, that alone should rule out Trump.

  6. Is there any positive messaging that can happen on Trump? Seriously.

    “Donald Trump. He’s not in a room with you right now.”

    That’s about as much as you can do.

  7. I liked her positive message of “when we fight we win”; she’s got a lot of positive messages and vibes.

    this is probably a decision after many people thought Tim Walz was being too nice to Vance. Kamala herself does well in this role as she did in her debate. Tim can stay the nice guy. His favorable ratings went up after the debate regardless of who “won”

    Just saw one of these commercials. It had a pic of Trump at an Epstein pedo party.

    Finally. Don’t fall for the when they go low we go high bullshit. Trump and Vance et al, go out and lie and attack and destroy things with zero consequence. It’s time to fight a little bit.

    I just read an article today saying how Harris was avoiding Clinton’s mistakes by largely staying positive in swing states.

    His threat should be made clear but the general tone needs to stay positive about her, I think.

    Going hard on Trump is a good idea, though I hope they do it right. Cast him as a ridiculous buffoon, not a serious threat.

    Superimpose attack ads over pictures of his weird centaur walk. Talk about his Russian connections over footage of his weird flag humping. Emphasize that his coup effort failed because Rudy sent texts to the wrong numbers, superimposed over Rudy leaking oil over his face.

    Make sure voters don’t feel that they are being transgressive or “pwning da libz” when they vote for him. Make sure that anyone anyone thinks of Trump, there are thinking what a ridiculous tub of McDonald’s and self tanner he is.

  13. Is it negative advertising to just report what he says and does? Sometimes I feel like the current news media has gone absolutely insane. 

  14. Negative messaging? They’re just playing video of shit he’s said and done. That dumbass does the work for them.

    It seems a little early, but really just putting quotes of things he’s said could be seen as negative.

  16. I had such a vivid dream today. I dreamed that I was walking alongside Obama and another person who he was talking to, advising, mentoring. I just kept quiet waiting for my turn. Finally that person left. And Obama looked at me. I just went and gave him a hug. And without saying anything I broke down crying, while still hugging him. I felt like I was hugging my own father or my own mother. Exhausted. In between the tears, I mutter “I am terrified!”.

    Obama just says, “We will be okay!”

    With just those words, I felt a relief like no other. It was as if, I was able to release all the angst, frustration, anger, rage that had been accumulations ever since that Orange turd came down that golden escalator.

    I woke up very emotional, but with a renewed sense of positivity.

    I hope this dream was a sign of a Democratic Victory in Nov.

    Most “undecideds” still don’t understand just how much harm he has already caused. Just do hitler/trump comparisons and Handsmaids tale clips.

  18. She also needs to focus on how her messaging will help the average American. Shitting on Trump is all well and good (and deserved) but she needs to balance it with ways she’ll help and Trump hurts.

  19. I have yet to hear the term, “dereliction of duty”.

    Trump watching the US Capitol under attack and doing nothing was his greatest crime.

    Everyone who has served in the military should be intimately familiar with this term and they all know how wrong and disqualifying it is.

    Kamala Harris said she was going to prosecute the case against trump and we need to hear some honorable closing arguments.

    What the campaign should do is create ads that show his rally speeches. They are completely unhinged.

  21. > “One thing I have learned in my time in politics is that if one of the parties is shameless, the other party cannot afford to be spineless.”

    Those were the words of Sen. Frank Lautenberg, who spent 30 years in the Senate and was the last of the WW2 vets in office. He knew politics. (New Jersey Dem)
