Mr.TaterSalad Posted Monday at 07:45 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:45 PM 2 hours ago, mtutiger said: I'm not going to respond to every single point that Tater made (he made some good ones), but with respect to Republican defections, I do think these people are real. I don't know what the percentage looks like, but they could be determinative in some states. Why would they defect now though? We've know for the last 10 years Trump is all of a bigot, racist, xenophobe, anti-Semitic, Islamophobic, misogynist, illiberal, undemocratic, authoritarian, fascist-adjacent (at minimum). If they were going to defect, wouldn't they have had every opportunity to do so in 2020 during that election? I can't help but wonder if Democrats have squeezed all the votes out of disaffected Republicans possible. Maybe not, I'd like to think we haven't.

Remember, Liz Cheney voted for Trump in 2020. We had a whole midterm where Republicans voted for democrats. Also, republican women are defecting at a higher rate over Dobbs.

But January 6th, Trump fatigue etc. People don't always move politically all at once, sometimes it takes time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtutiger Posted Monday at 07:56 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:56 PM So... They cut calling Kamala a ****, but left the joke about Puerto Rico in there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Bombers Posted Monday at 08:02 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:02 PM Harris campaign needs to cut an ad with Dan Campbell. Ford Field is chanting Kamala, and in the locker room, Campbell tosses her the game ball and says you’re good enough for Detroit Kamala Harris. The team then demands a speech and she breaks down the huddle with her closing message. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help but wonder if Democrats have squeezed all the votes out of disaffected Republicans possible. Maybe not, I'd like to think we haven't. because they weren't paying a lot of attention - didn't care about him when he was out of office, and because this cycle he is (for as much as we complain that it should be more) getting much more negative coverage than 4 yrs ago, which is because if you listen to him he *is* darker and more incoherent, plus as you note Harris has run a mistake free campaign that has left the GOP with nothing like "her emails" to work with. I mean, as much as it is true that this may be one of the most pre-baked elections in history, that's not to say the campaign is not going to matter at all. And Harris has run a better one than Trump. Also, do not underestimate that inflation has cooled and gas prices are down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She should do an ad featuring Calvin Johnson and target it towards white men and black men. It should air next Sunday during the Lions game and be targeted online towards these demographics.

Mr.TaterSalad Posted Monday at 09:05 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:05 PM There's another certain singer, from the Detroit area, not named Eminem, whose also a Dem. You can find him down on mainstreet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtutiger Posted Monday at 09:57 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:57 PM Campbell is from Glen Rose, TX, which is a very wildly conservative town... but ultimately who knows. People can go against type from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see him being a Never Trumper, but I would be fairly surprised if he wasn't a Republican at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romad1 Posted Monday at 10:14 PM Share Posted Monday at 10:14 PM I guess she has had enough of Trump SHe has a tweet below this saying she is "marked safe from ex-president felon" so she definitely means she voted for Harris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
