Trump Intensifies Attacks on Harris as Race Heats Up

[CharlieH]

 

The presidential race between former President Trump and Vice President Harris has turned increasingly nasty, highlighting the significant divide in American politics and the high personal stakes involved.

 

On Wednesday, Trump shared crude, sexist attacks on social media aimed at both Harris and his 2016 opponent, Hillary Clinton. These posts included references to the QAnon conspiracy, which the Harris campaign criticized as divisive and dangerous.

 

“Donald Trump is out of his mind. If a family member posted what Donald Trump is sharing, Americans would rightly be concerned,” said Harris campaign spokesperson James Singer. “Trump’s Project 2025 agenda offers America: prosecuting political opponents, using conspiracy theories to justify harmful policies, and dividing Americans against each other.”

Trump’s actions on social media are not particularly surprising given his history of personal attacks. “Donald Trump is being Donald Trump,” said Peter Loge, a professor at George Washington University. “He’s made his name through bombast, threats, lawsuits—just sort of over-the-top behavior.”

Democrats have signaled they are no longer interested in the "when they go low, we go high" approach once advocated by Michelle Obama. Harris’s campaign has called Trump “weird,” and Sen. John Fetterman’s campaign mocked Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance.

Vance, meanwhile, responded to criticism about the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan by telling an audience in Pennsylvania that Harris could “go to hell.”

Each new presidential cycle seems to get meaner than the last. “I think fans of the 2016 and 2020 election are going to be in for a real thrill this fall,” quipped Loge.

Trump has a long history of inflammatory rhetoric, from spreading conspiracy theories about former President Obama to calling for investigations into the Biden family. He has repeatedly attacked Harris’s intelligence, appearance, and biracial heritage.

 

This past week has underscored how bitter political discourse has become amid a polarized electorate and a tight presidential race. Trump faced criticism over a clash at Arlington National Cemetery and shared incendiary posts on Truth Social targeting Harris, Clinton, and Obama.

 

However, Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt argued that voters are more concerned with pressing issues than Trump’s social media conduct. “Americans aren’t concerned with social media posts and silly memes. They are concerned with the problems that are plaguing them and their families right now,” Leavitt said on CNN.

Since Harris replaced Biden atop the Democratic ticket, she has overtaken Trump in national polling averages and pulled even or ahead in several swing states. “He thought he had it in the bag running against Biden,” said one former Trump White House official. “But now that Harris is the nominee and she’s doing better than expected, he’s threatened by that.”

 

Trump has brushed off suggestions from his advisers to avoid personal attacks. At a recent rally, he defended his approach: “I have to get personal. They get personal, but I’m going to do my best. So they’re allowed to get personal with me, but I’m not allowed to get personal to them?”

Democrats have also gone after Trump personally, though in different ways. Harris frequently references her time as a prosecutor to criticize Trump’s legal issues. Michelle Obama suggested Trump might be pursuing a “Black job,” a reference to Trump’s comments on African American employment, and former President Obama likened Trump to an annoying neighbor.

“Trump is going to be Trump, and his rhetoric is often cruel and demeaning,” said Loge. “The Democrats are trying to be clever rather than cruel.”

As the race for the White House heats up, the bitter exchanges reflect the deep divisions in American politics and the high stakes for both candidates.

The man is a genius....he knows what he is doing ...these vicious personal attacks will resound throughout the electorate and will turn the polls around in no time....just watch......he'll be 5 points up in the swing states based on this master move.

 

Like watching a chess master at his peak.

No doubt this is exactly what the electorate is after. The convicted criminal is truly a stable genius!!

There's a saying you can' teach an old dog new tricks.

 

Harris did well in her CNN interview, even though she is known not to like them. She skewered Trump with the SOS comment.

 

Trump's interviews are usually train wrecks, rambling and avoiding questions. He storms out in a huff if the questions get too pressing.

 

He's using the same old songbook, not realizing it is counterproductive.

This is how you influence the masses. Everything is extreme, the best, the worst. It's how you evoke emotion in the masses. It has worked since time immemorial and will most likely work now again. Unless the half a billion USD Harris' Democrat backers are throwing at her will make a difference.

 

Goebbels and Hitler didn't influence the masses by saying their enemies were allright and let's talk economics.

....and of course a key element in all of this is an electorate that is as thick as p** s*** .......and  Trump has followers that fit the bill perfectly......so yes....I can see how that might work.

 

Sad

And we are talking about the United States here, the land with the most intelligent people on earth.

 

And sadly, also some of the least.

 

So, let's see if it works.

They have a fine disregard for spelling, syntax, and grammar. Hurts my eyes reading their illiterate posts.

 

As for logic and facts, those bailed out from their brain cells long ago, to be replaced by blind belief.

 

No wonder Trump calls them basement dwellers privately.

Complete and total bs, exactly where and when did Trump state that Project 2025 is his, or if he even supports it??

The so called “democrats” clever? No, they are criminally corrupted to the core along with the entire cabal of the State Department, MIT, DOJ and the media. 99%+ of the populous have no clue of the back channeling that takes place in the background and how it’s designed to disseminate the false narrative and information to shape the minds of the naive and gullible. Just a note: when reading or watching the political news, you are being lied to. Disinformation misinformation is code for censorship, malinformation is code for suppressing truth. These are the contortions that are gaming the masses in the West. Plain and simple.

If only Harris would do this. She would win for sure and perhaps even make a good president. her concerns are for people who do not have problems though. She does not face issues that affect the people or the world.

His attacks are all he has. There is almost a complete absence of policy and vision. And the few policies he does have, like the crazy, weird tariffs are a tax hike on the American consumer, which nobody needs. 

 

They are cascading toward a stunning defeat, and they are unable to adapt, pivot, or offer anything in the way of a positive message. So, they keep moaning, groaning, whining and harping like bitter teenage boys who have been denied. Failed strategy, by failed men. People don't want to hear it anymore, and his low rally attendance is testament to that. Boring.

This was the only post in this thread worth reading

More than a month into her presidential candidacy, Kamala Harris has so far managed to brush off a deluge of attacks from her Republican opponent — and one columnist wrote Friday it's "driving him crazy."

It resonates with his supporters, because they tend to be self-centered as well. They honestly cannot understand anyone who isn't.
