Harris spoke at length about her time working as a courtroom prosecutor, adding: “I know Donald Trump’s type.”
Vice President Kamala Harris gave the public its first real look into her nascent presidential campaign with a stop at her organization’s headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware on Monday night.
Harris’ first applause line came when she discussed her background as California attorney general and as a courtroom prosecutor.
“In those roles, I took on perpetrators of all kinds,” she said, earning cackles while she beamed, clearly enjoying the joke. “Predators who abused women. Fraudsters who ripped off consumers. Cheaters who broke the rules for their own gain. So hear me when I say, I know Donald Trump’s type.”
she needs to specifically call out every single bullshit thing he's ever done, starting from trump "university" all the way up to the catastrophic covid response, the ukraine phone calls, the stolen documents, and on and on.
she needs to dial it up to 11 and keep it there. it's time to throw out this "let's take the high road" attitude that's accomplished exactly jack fucking shit over the last too many decades
She said building up the middle class would be a defining goal of her presidency,
Go on Kamala, you are making me hope you might be better than just "not trump." Let's hear some details that will be resistant to the 1% and their greed and get prices under control.
Honestly, this is the kind of down-in-the-dirt campaigning I had hoped to see from Hillary back in 2016 before she tied an apron on and tried to convince everyone she was a sweet little motherly person. You can't be sweet and kind with someone like Trump. You need to gather up the shit he's piling up around the place and drown his ass in it.
So if Kamala is gonna bring the pain, I'm here for it. Trump needs to be beaten bloody on the pulpit. Because bullies can never handle being bullied themselves. Especially ones as thin skinned and stupid as Trump is.
She should point out, repeatedly, that the man has no financial skills at all. Keep hammering how bad he was for workers and the economy in general but still turned a tidy profit for himself. He would actually have more wealth now if he had just invested his inheritance in the S&P (according to Forbes) instead of starting all his cockamamie businesses. The man ran how many casinos into the ground? He went bankrupt in businesses where people say "the house always wins" because the odds are literally stacked in the house's favor.
Trump has the impulse control of a squirrel on meth, and an assertive brown woman is pretty much his nightmare (and the sum of all reactionary fears). Trump being made sport of by a minority woman is going to drive him off the rails. The racism and misogyny will be fully unleashed and I suspect he will die by the ugly sword he himself forged.
Sounds like the sequel to "Six". Maybe we can make a pop musical from Trump's ex-wives and call it "Three". (Melania counts, because she will be an ex-wife eventually.)
