Georgia former Lt Gov laying down some truth

Ex-GOP Official Hits Donald Trump With A Cold, Harsh Truth On CNN (msn.com)
“I don’t know what I’m more mad at. I go back and forth minute to minute,” Duncan earlier admitted. “Am I more mad at Donald Trump trying to sabotage good policy and good legislation to keep the trains on time?” he asked. “Or am I more mad that we’re at this epitome of stupidity again and half the people in that room couldn’t pass a high school economics class and don’t realize the damage that they’re doing just to try to prime up an extra 15 likes on Twitter?”

“It infuriates me to watch us get to this spot,” Duncan added. “When you look at the mechanics of what’s going on, we’ve already budgeted the money and now we just don’t want to write the check for it. If we do that at home, we ultimately go to jail or get evicted or lose your car of your wife leaves you or something.”
......................................
Duncan initially endorsed Biden’s reelection campaign and has now publicly backed Kamala Harris for the White House.

“I think it’s important to reinforce the fact to Republicans around the country that just because you vote for Kamala Harris in 2024, doesn’t mean you’re Democrat,” Duncan said on CNN last month.”It just means you’re a patriot. You’re doing your duty as an American to step up to the plate and reclaim this country’s future.”

The flow of mendacity coming from trump is truly unprecedented. In the past month - just 30 days here are some of the biggest bald-faced lies told by trump. His voters want more of this? Me? I’m exhausted from the constant lies, scandals and chaos from his first term.

trump said Harris wants to reinstate the military draft

Harris had notes for TV interview

Schools are sending kids off for trans surgery without parents knowledge

Said Harris met with Putin just before Ukraine invasion

Claimed that only recently did Harris acknowledge her blackness

Claimed Harris was first to drop from 2020 presidential race (14/22)

Said everyone wanted Roe v Wade overturned

Said that if Dems didn’t cheat he would win CA.

Said he won “Man of the Year” award (no such award exists).

Said the Congo was sending its prisoners to US

Said the Biden government had planned to release downward jobs revision after Nov 5.

They’re eating the cats. They’re eating the dogs.

Brand new today: if he doesn’t win its the fault of Jews

Exactly. My recent favorite line of bullshittery is that you can solve the water crisis in California by turning on the Canadian water faucet.

B.C. has 'very large faucet' that could help with California's drought: Trump - The Williams Lake Tribune

My mind reels when I realize that people will actually vote for this idiot.

Trump loses the Jewish vote, preemptively blaming them if he loses. Why did Trump not run a campaign with this level of intelligence in 2016?

Harris campaign, Jewish groups fiercely criticize Trump preemptively blaming Jewish voters if he loses

Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign and Jewish advocacy groups on Friday forcefully criticized what they called former President Donald Trump's "dangerous" and "antisemitic" comments saying Jewish voters would be to blame if he lost the presidential election.

"I'll put it to you very simply and as gently as I can: I wasn't treated properly by the voters who happen to be Jewish," Trump said at an event Thursday night in Washington that was meant to highlight antisemitism. "I don't know. Do they know what the hell is happening if I don't win this election? And the Jewish people would really have a lot to do with that if that happens, because at 40% that means 60% of the people are voting for the enemy."

The backlash was fierce.

"Donald Trump is resorting to the oldest antisemitic tropes in the book because he's weak and can't stand the fact that the majority of America is going to reject him in November. But we know that words like these can have dangerous consequences," Harris campaign national security spokesperson Morgan Finkelstein said in a statement. "As Trump has proven, including over the past few weeks with his lies about Springfield, Ohio, he will cling to fearmongering and intimidation, no matter the cost."

Kamala picks up the republican vote: says she has a gun and knows how to use it. Could this election get any weirder?

Kamala Harris Is Going Viral For Her Unexpected Comment About Guns, And People Are Claiming It Could Win Over Republican Voters

Now, here's where her answer seemingly went a bit off the rails. Oprah interjected, saying she was surprised that Kamala was a gun owner after learning about it at the presidential debate. "I'm a gun owner; Tim Walz is a gun owner," Harris confirmed.

The now-viral clip has received over 2.6 million views in less than 24 hours, and people online praised the candid comment from a Democratic candidate. "She just won the Republican vote," one user wrote.

Trump loses the Teamsters: they apparently refuse to endorse anyone in this election. Trump's anti-union policies did not go over well with them, and Harris has not been paying enough attention to them. Harris (& Biden) do have a better record of getting the union what they want, like rescuing their pension fund. The other major unions have all endorsed Harris.

The Reason This Union Gave for Not Endorsing Harris Is Shocking. But It Makes One Thing Clear.

But the Teamsters’ much-publicized decision not to endorse Kamala Harris this week turned that political maxim on its head. The 1.3 millon–member Teamsters union failed to endorse anyone. “Unfortunately, neither major candidate was able to make serious commitments to our union to ensure the interests of working people are always put before Big Business,” Teamster’s president Sean O’Brien said in a statement.

This is plainly shocking and a lose-lose for one of the most powerful unions in the country. As the only union out of the nation’s 10 largest unions not to endorse Harris, the Teamsters made the mistake of taking the Democrats for granted.

Let’s look at the alternative: Donald Trump is an unarguably anti-union candidate. He once said he’d sign a national right-to-work law, he’s denounced prominent labor leaders like UAW president Shawn Fain, and he’s embraced extremely anti-union business leaders including Elon Musk. Trump recently launched a missile at organized labor’s heart by praising the idea of firing striking workers (even though that is illegal under federal law). Three days after O’Brien—in an unusual step for a union leader—spoke at the Republican National Convention to urge the GOP to be nicer to labor, Trump kicked unions in the teeth in his acceptance speech by mocking the United Auto Workers.

Meanwhile, Harris is part of the administration that moved political heaven and earth to enact the Teamsters’ No. 1 legislative priority: an $86 billion bill, passed in 2021, that rescues the underfunded pensions of over 400,000 Teamster members and 2 million union members in all. (Trump opposed that legislation.) Many Democratic politicians must be asking: Why even bother pursuing policies that the Teamsters want if the Teamsters seem to be taking the Democrats and their pro-labor efforts for granted and telling the party to shove it?
