Here's an AP source if you prefer not to click the daily beast.
W E I R D GUY
But also, what exactly is the AP doing here? The Trump campaign purposefully scheduled JD Vance to follow Harris to all these places after she released her schedule. They're not just "crossing paths as they travel," he's literally following her
PS What is Trump even doing this week? Is Vance campaigning alone now?
If you're poor, or non-white, they call that "stalking"
The creeps are fucking creepy.
Trump is too old to keep up with Kamala's schedule. And he hates the photos of the same venue really full for Kamala and half full for him, so he's avoiding the comparison like he's avoiding the debate. He hates being seen to lose. He's the world's sorest loser.
That poor guy...why schedule the scrub newbie to go on stage after the major blowout headliner? Must be Vance's punishment for sucking. Gonna be fun when Kamala starts posting up the comparison of each event he follows to hers. HAHAHAHA
and yeah, I get trump's "strategy", but he is using checkers in a chess game and expecting the same plays to work.
Uncreative, boring, poorly thought out. Weird ancient strats in a modern battlefield. Weak.
It's not so much a strategy as being unable to keep up with Kamala physically or in crowd sizes.
So many couches and so little time
Actually, I think it would be good to change the standard routine of having the VP candidates debate each other, to having them debate the opposing presidential candidates. Then we’d get to see the top-ticket candidates debate two opponents each, instead of just each other.
She should challenge him to show up in September to NBC
They should set up debate podiums at all these places he's following her and have her stand there, ready to debate. Then we can watch him turn as chicken shit as Trump and refuse.
The first question she should ask him would be "why am I debating you and not mister "any time, any place"?
Much better source without a bullshit headline. Thank you.
Is that some new type of sectional I’ve never heard of?
You keep him the hell away from my new Ashley Jocular.
🙏
Thanks.
While the daily beast is a fun read, it’s hard to make out where they exaggerate and dramatify things
