Yep, not really worth reading. Its mostly filled with various reasonable things he said before he turned MAGA (e.g. the election wasn’t stolen) that might hurt him with Trump conservatives, and various insane things he’s said after he turned MAGA that might hurt him with moderates. Oh, and he got a ticket for going 80 in a 65mph zone. yawn. ---

Quoting Klippenstein: > [@JohnT](#): > > “The terror regime in Iran loves the weakness and stupidity of Kamala Harris, and is terrified of the strength and resolve of President Donald J. Trump,” Steven Cheung, communications director for the Trump campaign, responded when I asked him about the hack. Is that why Russia hacked the Clinton campaign? Because they loved the weakness and stupidity of Donald J Trump and were terrified of the strength and resolve of Hillary Clinton? Every accusation… ---

Not to be a downer, but I don’t think those kinds of political ads are going to move the needle very much at all. Of course, it looks like every vote is going to count, and if this can at least discourage Trump voters from going to the polls (because they can’t bring themselves to vote for a Democrat) then that’s all good. It’s just that I think that anyone who cares about Trump’s character already know all about this stuff, and either it has already put them off, or it never will. ---

We’ve been getting, “swamp the vote,” commercials for trump and vance." You need to call your friends and neighbors to vote and, “save our country!” Just imagine if Harris and Walz put out an ad like that. ---

> [@Roderick\_Femm](#): > > Not to be a downer, but I don’t think those kinds of political ads are going to move the needle very much at all. I’m afraid I have to agree. It’s very hard to admit to being fooled by a fool. Most votes are very much in person though. Some, might be able to pull different levers, or no levers at all. ---

Disgusting racist Rep. Clay Higgins let his domain registration lapse, so someone put up a [new website for him](https://www.clayhiggins2024.com/) and it is deeeeeee-licious.
