The funniest part of these CNN “critical on Kamala” clips is the outrage they're getting on liberal X. They complain that all of Kamala’s dirty laundry is getting exposed while Trump is getting journalistic immunity.
This complaint is categorically incorrect, but what the left
This is incredible…
CNN’s Erin Burnett literally in shock about what Kamala Harris supported.
“Taxpayer-funded gender transition surgeries for detained illegal migrants? She actually said she supported that??”
@cenkuygur
Honestly Cenk, I've never seen eye to eye with you on anything but through all of the hideous things being spewed by the left on this platform tonight, you've been a beacon of respect and honor. Thank you!
@AutismCapital
The fact that he's joking about it says everything about how baseless these Project 2025 claims are.
If it were that big of a perceived threat, it wouldn't be a joke.

I believe it was Denzel Washington in American Gangster who said, "The loudest person in the room is usually the weakest person in the room"
@WarClandestine
I don't think this was an electoral college pick. Trump is already performing very well in the Rust Belt, and definitely Ohio.
JD Vance is a pick that solidifies the populist movement and further isolates neocon players in the GOP.
@eyeslasho
but price fixing is also a central fiscal policy of communist regimes, so yes, price fixing is communist.
It's an essential element of the command economy.
Other governments embracing price fixing in the past doesn't make it less communist.
@Friended4Ever
I'd say his escalation of NSA mass surveillance programs, unconstitutional drone strikes, and the birthing of the victimhood mentality movement are pretty high up there.
@PpollingNumbers
Worth noting this poll shows zero black voters support Trump (Trump's been floating at 15% of the Michigan black vote since February)
Poll is cooked
@kylenabecker
The damning question becomes: is there protocol to record field radio communications?
If there is protocol, they're toast.
If they followed protocol and deleted the recordings, they're toast.
They can't have followed protocol and deleted the tapes because she said there are no

Population of 36 million vs. 143 million, and one side is running out of combat-age men.
But sure, one minor Ukraine surge and now they're "winning."
@POTUS
What this chart actually means: before COVID, Trump's average GDP growth outpaced that of Biden's last two years. Biden is factoring in the COVID economy bounceback, heavily fueled by government spending:
@JamesSurowiecki
So by your logic, if I didn't want that statue removed I'm automatically a neo-Nazi?
You realize this kind of polarization is what's causing the massive fracture in this country, right?
@BarbMcQuade
It's pretty amazing how almost every single liberal describes Trump during the debate as have spewed rapid-fire lies, but no liberal seems to want to discuss the specific lies.
@ComicDaveSmith
Her handling of this hearing has my jaw on the floor. She has no intention of addressing the fears of the public over her complete and utter failure.

@WallStreetSilv
What's even funnier is that liberals can't seem to comprehend why Caitlin Clark, given the immense and ridiculous criticism she's faced at the hands of the left, would vote Republican.
@Rasmussen_Poll
The left is already discounting the short-term memory of the people - this TikTok craze around her nomination will phase out, the excitement from the DNC and VP selection will phase out, and then three months left to address the crux of the issues: policy.
Her record has holes

@MattWalshBlog
"Mediocre lightweight" is playing nice. I admittedly lean right, but that was one of the most underwhelming career moments I've ever witnessed.

@DonaldJTrumpJr
"Dishonest and disingenuous"
I thought you knew with absolute certainty that Biden wouldn't get swapped and ultimately beat Trump?

@umichvoter
My argument could also go in your favor if you were able to remove your partisan interpretation.
If Harris is actually +2 in N. Carolina, Trump's +4 in Georgia feels like it stands on thin ice.
@AllanLichtman
Screenshotting this tweet to see if you still really want a second debate after the first one happens.
You're a historian — you should be plenty familiar with Kamala's debate record.
@FischerKing64
Great analysis.
Germany has turned into a strategic vassal state of the United States, at least in the military sense. They've been taught to be so ashamed of their national identity that they've allowed themselves to become subservient to the will of another nation entirely ––
@JoshuaSteinman
This is an interesting take –– he could very well be looking to cozy up to who he believes will be the next president. It'd be ignorant to assume he has no pulse on the matter.
@WarClandestine
I'm aware.
There is little evidence that VP picks have any material impact on election results, and just because they're advertising him as the Rust Belt VP doesn't necessarily mean his value comes from his Electoral College impact.
@Jason
Funny how liberals seem to take all of Trump's rhetoric and policy suggestions at face value, but when Kamala proposes absurdity it's dismissed as "pandering."
@mehdirhasan
You are completely financially illiterate.
The banks overvalued the deal, which as the article describes, Musk warned them about. They still decided to issue the loans, therefore accepting the risk. It is by no fault of Elon that they can't sell those loans –– the banks did

@nytimes
So the betting markets are getting more bullish on Trump while the NYT is saying it's more or less a lock for Kamala.
Interesting to say the least.

What about the concerns of travel into Europe for publicly stating opinion that challenges the EU's policies?
That, to me, is the scariest part of this all.
