The children of America deserve a President who will respect their mothers. His behaviour is vile. Enough is enough Vote Blue.
This 78 year old man does not have one modicum of decency. And to think people would vote him into the US presidency is absolute insanity.
Beyond speechless, more than 40% of my fellow Americans chose to vote for this 'thing.'
As someone from Norway, I must say it's incredibly disheartening to see Donald Trump as a presidential candidate in the United States. It's hard to believe that a country with such a rich history of democracy and leadership could seriously consider him for the highest office. This situation is truly disappointing and reflects poorly on the values that many around the world have admired in America. Come on, USA—you can do better!

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz answered every question with common sense and honesty. I have complete faith that they both will work for all Americans.
So happy that VP Harris was focused, straightforward and stood her ground… The CNN interviewer FAILS TO RECOGNIZE the INITIAL situation President Biden and VP Harris walked into in the BEGINNING of their term and what our country looks like NOW..The point is our country is improving and MOVING FORWARD NOT BACKWARD…That is the difference.
! Like they didn’t inherit a failed economy at the height of COVID, They got us to the other side of the pandemic and recovered from the pandemic, and avoided an almost certain recession. They have done a 5:43 great job and now to deal with price gouging and price fixing.
Kamala hit a grand slam tonight. Thank you, Madam POTUS. We love as Americans. Our next lease of America. Kamala is on 
. Vote 
across the country.
. Vote across the country.
Harris certainly kept her cool with the pointed questions that Bash asked. She finished the interview without the name calling that we are so familiar with when Trump is interviewed. Touche Madame president!

@omoroomoro Let's just take the cheapest eggs you can find on the market for example. Before the Democratic convention, egg prices were an average of $2.88 per dozen. This week, right after the convention and when Kamala Harris' polls gained ground against Donald Trump, eggs went up an average of $3.48 per dozen. That's right.
In one week, eggs went from $2.88 p/dz to $3.48 for no reason at all except, of course, political. These billion dollar corporations favor Donald Trump because they are being promised another huge tax break and no taxes for incomes of over $10 million dollars, according to Project 2025. These food industries are purposely price gauging to make people think it's Biden/Harris bad economy.
The inflation rate is at a low of 2.8%, which is within a reasonable range. These same companies have been making more profits than ever before in history. THERE IS NO EXCUSE OTHER THAN A POLITICAL ONE! And they are getting government grants to try to keep prices low. I WANT AN INVESTIGATION OF PRICE GAUGING AND MY TAX MONEY BACK! Those industries are in breach of their part of the deal!
Transcript
I'm joined here at the DNC in Chicago with Governor Gavin Newsom from my home state of California. Governor Newsom, thanks for joining us.
Newsom: Good to be with you, thank you so much.
Interviewer: So, we have seen Donald Trump dissemble over the last few weeks. A big part of what he's trying to do by maintaining this strongman persona is to show himself as stronger than all the Democrats. But we've only seen that kind of fall by the wayside, and him continue to dissemble and throw these desperate punches left and right. Do you think there's a way for him to come back from this, especially in light of what we're seeing here at the DNC?
Newsom: Well, you can never, as a political animal, underestimate him. That said, he's a T-Rex within the Republican Party—he'll kill you or mate with you. Outside of the Republican Party, he's a completely different thing, and right now he's weakness masquerading as strength. He has completely fallen flat; he's lost his bearings, and it's not only obvious in terms of the derivative nature of his performances—which are getting duller and duller—but also the fact that so many members of his team and inner circle are starting to express doubt and concern as well.
Interviewer: Let's talk about his favorite topic, crowd size, for just a moment. We have seen the crowds get a little thin at his recent rallies, and yet we're here in Chicago at the DNC, and this arena is packed night after night. We're also seeing rallies happening simultaneously where Kamala Harris is showing up, and those are packed as well. How do you think that's going to land with him?
Newsom: I mean, it's all about aesthetics; it's all about the style. It's never been about substance. So, if that's what you score, if that's what you consider as your reflection of value and self-worth, then it has a devastating psychological impact on him and makes him more unhinged, more incapable of delivering a consistent and cogent message. And look, at the end of the day, he needs to get back on track, and very quickly. Our job is to make sure he doesn't get back on track, which means we've got to maintain vigilance and momentum moving forward.
Interviewer:
You mentioned that he's getting more and more unhinged. Ultimately, I think if he looks back at 2016, when he was able to consolidate all of the attention onto himself, he's conditioned himself into believing that that's what it takes to win. That's what won him the election in 2016. We were focused on empty podiums as far as he was concerned, and so he's doing the same thing. He knows if he can say something loud or obnoxious enough, all the eyeballs will go back onto him, and then he'll win the election magically, just like he did back then. Do you think that strategy is going to prove successful for him?
Newsom:
No, you're 100% right. He didn't care if he was the heel or the hero, as long as he was the star, right? That's always been what he sells. As long as he's the center of attention... But that's what radically changed. There's nothing about Kamala Harris they were prepared for. They never saw this coming. They underestimated her, they undervalued her, and they never imagined the Democratic Party would unify, and unify so quickly. They're completely flat-footed. As a consequence, the focus is now on the new energy of the Democratic Party, and at the end of the day, where the energy goes, momentum flows. We're moving that momentum in the right direction, at a time when he's losing momentum, and that's going to ultimately be decisive.
Interviewer:
You know, I remember just a few years back when it felt like Democrats had no bench, basically. And now you look at the young stars that make up the bench of the Democratic Party and how deep that bench is, yourself included. Can you speak on that and what you look forward to in terms of not just this election, but future election cycles?
Newsom:
Look, obviously, we have some remarkable people at the federal level—senators and Congressional leaders—but the quality of these Democratic Governors is next level. I mean, you're going to see it showcased with Wes and Josh, and obviously with Gretchen. You saw that in terms of the VP stakes. I mean, it was just like...
Interviewer: And you won't say it, but you were very much on that list as well.
Newsom: No, hardly, but I appreciate it. But it is an extraordinary thing because you're exactly right. It wasn't that many years ago when people were like, 'What the hell's going on with the Democratic Party?' Look back to the 2016 election—it very much felt like, okay, this is going to be Hillary Clinton because, who else is there? The bench wasn't deep enough to have the depth of talent that we have now.
Interviewer: Right.
Newsom:
And I think what's remarkable about the quality of this bench is the diversity. And not just ideological diversity. It's usually been about which wing of the Democratic Party you belong to—are you a DLC Democrat, or are you a progressive, more liberal Bernie side, or the other? This is more nuanced. The party now is more geographically diverse. There’s obviously a racial, ethnic component, and a gender component. But it's also a quality of imagination across a spectrum of unique and distinctive talents that make this a special group.
Interviewer:
And that's an especially potent point here, because as we look at somebody like Tim Walz, who—you look at that guy, and you don't exactly... he doesn't exactly scream 'flaming liberal,' right? This isn't your communist, leftist, Marxist Democrat that they're warning about. The guy is wearing camo, he comes from the Midwest, he is a rural American high school coach, a union guy. And that happens at the same time that we're seeing chants of 'USA, USA, USA' at Democratic rallies, which is something you wouldn't see before. We need to bring patriotism back to this damn party. Can you talk about Democrats reclaiming a lot of the ideals that Republicans have been able to co-opt for so long?
Newsom:
It's been a source of so much frustration for me—the idea that we were losing the freedom band while these guys are banning books, banning speech, engaging in a cultural purge, rewriting history, and censoring historical facts.
But this notion of patriotism is incredibly important. I think as a party, one of the key things we need to focus more on is not, as Bill Clinton would say, all our interesting differences, but the things that bind us together—that web of mutuality Dr. King talked about—and focus more on those unifying themes.
And one of them is that we are all proud that we’re Americans. A deep pride, not just as Democrats. We all want to be safe, we all want to be protected, connected, and respected. And Tim Walz is one of those guys—he'll never talk down to someone, he'll never talk past someone. And you feel that, and that's a universal value. I think it makes him universally appealing and profoundly potent as a VP candidate.
Interviewer: Universally appealing as a VP candidate, in stark contrast to what we're seeing from JD Vance right now. Can you talk about the authenticity of JD Vance?
Newsom: Anyone that calls Trump "American Hitler," that builds his career on actually calling balls and strikes, and then completely reverses and flips—that’s no character. You can't trust a thing that guy says. And that follows suit, doesn't it? What a perfect choice for Donald Trump because that's the one damn thing they have in common, besides perverted points of view.
Interviewer: In fact, I think even to a degree, Donald Trump started to see what an anchor around his neck, JD, has been, because the first opportunity he had to either hug him or run away from him, he chose the latter. I think it was at the National Association of Black Journalists where he was asked whether JD Vance would be ready for day one, and rather than saying yes, of course, that's why I chose him as my VP pick, he instead said, "Well, you know, he's never going to be president anyway; it's just going to be all about me, all about me."
He immediately regretted the choice. And of course, how did he kick off after his convention? It was a week of stories about some of the asinine and absurd things JD Vance has said about women, children... I mean, it's absurd. And so, it’s been to our benefit. Momentum's now in our camp; we no longer have headwinds, we've got tailwinds. But again, we do it at our peril if we underestimate Donald Trump's figuring it out. As he's flailing now, that doesn't necessarily predict the future.
Interviewer: Right. Talk about California for a second, because California is really surging into the spotlight here in terms of the people that have come out of it. Kamala Harris is, you know, obviously the former Attorney General of California, U.S. Senator from California, and Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House, from California. What is it like for you to come from this state that was largely unrepresented on the national stage, and now it's the spotlight?
Newsom: I know. I mean, the talent pool... and coming out of the Bay Area as well. I mean, L.A., we've got some... you’re doing fine. You've got two great U.S. Senators from L.A.; Kamala is now a Los Angeles resident.

For a guy who doesn't trust the media and calls it "Fake News", Trump sure likes to have a lot of "emergency" press conferences.

Why the heck is a felony to run for the highest office in U.S.A.
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
What is the meaning of 1 John 2:15?
Properly understanding this important verse hinges on correctly understanding the referent of the word “world.” If we think John is referring to creation, we may interpret this as an anti-nature statement calling us to attend only to things considered “spiritual” rather than physical.Jun 16, 2023
I am glad to know that "Joyful Warrior" is not just a recent campaign phrase for 2024 election. She said this in 2018.

A joyful candidate is giving hope and happiness to millions of Americans.
Whoever reuploaded this interview, thank you. During the Harris campaign and the many discussions with experts, the issue that came up repeatedly was that the American people do not know enough about VP Kamala Harris. What the Harris campaign should do is buy the rights to this interview and air it throughout the US as much as possible. VP Kamala Harris has not changed. The same issues she championed in this interview are the same ones she stands for as future President. Playing this interview will show the American voters that VP Kamala Harris is genuine and can be trusted on her word.
VP Kamala Harris talked about being Joyful ... 6 YEARS AGO!! Now she using it for her platform as the next POTUS. Talk about integrity and sticking to your beliefs. Thank you!!!
It's wonderful that this was 6 years ago. She's the same now as she was then. Her consistency is incredibly reassuring and powerful. It's the core characteristic of a great leader. I think she and Tim Walz will win a landslide.
I love her Joy. It didnt just happen yesterday. She has lived with it.
This makes her even more authentic because she told me all of this 6 years ago, and I heard so much of it during the past 4 days.
