Saw this; it seems pretty big. So far no mention made on cable news. I can understand Fox ignoring the story but I'd think CNN and MSNBC would be all over it.

In a lot of ways, this was indeed a gift from Putin to Biden, especially after he was politically forced into a lame duck status. Wonder why, but my suspicion is that Putin is covering his bases just in case, expecting Trump to lose. My money is now on Ms. Harris, hoping that she does not repeat the mistakes HRC made in 2016, ie., taking voters for granted. I think her VP pick is Shapiro and if her other choices actively campaign with and for her, she should be in good shape. But still not confident if her sex, race and skin color will not be used against her with Trump constantly harping on it.

But she must put Trump on defense but continuously getting under his skin.

Well, it's official: Kamala is the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Whereas Trump is the presumptuous Republican nominee.

The only headline today that makes mention of the Orange Buffoon is the one about Harris' $310 million take being twice that of Donny's. His handlers must be in a panic, lol.

The thing I find shocking is how unprepared the Trump campaign was for the switch to Harris, a thing many of us amateurs had accepted as inevitable.

What is really telling for me.

She was the VP already.
They should of had plenty to go with in their quiver to use against her.

Totally flat footed and unorganized even lost.

They will get their new hate filled attacks going soon enough.

DJ famously surrounds himself with yes men. Unable to walk and chew gum at the same time, they fixated on Joe.

My peeps

DNC launches mobile billboard outside of Trump rally in Atlanta

I believe it will be at the same venue that previously hosted Kamala's rally, and crowd size of course will be lied about.

To really twist the knife Kamala should show up with a bullhorn and start the "LOCK HIM UP" CHANT.

Looks like DeeJay is having the runs. He announced yesterday that there will be a debate with Ms. Harris on Faux with a full studio audience (and we all know what that means), but Harris campaign is not acknowledging it. Looks like a bit of hustle by Trump. He was to have debated President Biden on ABC which he now claims is cancelled while Ms. Harris is agreeable to this debate since she is now the official Dem candidate.

Quote:
“Donald Trump is running scared and trying to back out of the debate he already agreed to and running straight to Fox News to bail him out,” Tyler said. “Mr. Anytime, anywhere, anyplace should have no problem with that unless he’s too scared to show up on the 10th,” he added, referring to language Trump previously used to pressure Biden into agreeing to a faceoff.
