Kamala's momentum is pretty much baked in. Her base is solidified and it is now a question of GOTV in November as well as bringing in remaining swing voters. There is a real danger for TFG that his base becomes disheartened and stays home in November. Dems need to pour money into the Senate and House races where there is any reasonable chance of getting the Dem elected.

If Kamala is winning barring a scandal or faux-pas or gaffe, then the media hunt for exactly that will be on.

(4,672 posts)Their headline the morning after **$$Y-Grabber's disaster with the NABJ:
"Harris Faces a 'Pivotal Moment' as Trump Questions Her Identity". . . Huh. . . WTF?
Pivotal moment? What horseshit.

(12 posts)This all boils down to the 100,000 people in swing states. Not the other 300,000,000+.
Those 100,000 people will be influenced by the most ridiculously low level stuff, which includes all types of media and whispers. Democrats across the country - not just the campaign and the candidate - need to stay mature and professional about this because who knows what turns off a swing voter in Wisconsin. Let Trump and team be their own worst enemies since they cannot help themselves but be self-mutilating.

I think Trump's media density is about as dense as it's ever going to be. There's never anything new to report on; just the same old squalid, vile behavior that everyone already knows about.
Smart media outlets (meaning practically none of them) would be actively working for a Harris Presidency. But shit media is what you get when the money does the decision-making.
