The 2024 campaign has entered the final stretch and, as polls tighten, it seems Kamala Harris plans to lean into attacking Donald Trump as a threat to democracy.
Over the past week the Wall Street Journal, the Associated Press, the Washington Post, the New York Times and even the conservative National Review have all reported or commented on the messaging pivot. In a newly unveiled official campaign ad, a disembodied voice warns gravely that a second Trump term āwould be worse. There would be no one to stop his worst instincts. No guard rails.ā At a recent rally in Erie, Pennsylvania, Harris reminded her supporters of Project 2025, the ādetailed and dangerous planā that she believes an āincreasingly unstable and unhingedā Trump will follow to cement āunchecked powerā. She sounded the alarm about the dire threat Trump poses to āyour fundamental freedomsā and how in his second term he would be āessentially immuneā from oversight.
Good adivce. Kamala does talk a lot about working class people already. Take a wild guess at what parts of Kamalaās tens-of-minutes-long rally speeches are most covered by news headlines.
Aināt that the truth. Iāve watched her live, she talks about middle class needs so much people literally make fun of her for trying to connect over her middle class upbringing. But the news runs the Trump stuff.

Poopy diaper boy makes them money. Itās the same reason they havenāt been saying ārepublicans tried to overthrow the governmentā every day since 1/6/2021.
Or that theyāre very literally planning for exactly that again
