Can Harris Beat Trump With Such Weak Voter Support For Her Signature Policies? I&I/TIPP Poll

While presidential candidate Kamala Harris avoids media questions about her proposed policies, both she and her progressive allies in the Democratic Party are already on record as favoring a number of highly controversial proposals, ranging from defunding the police to free college education. But do average Americans agree? The latest I&I/TIPP Poll provides answers.

The national online poll of 1,488 adults, taken from July 31-August 2, shows it’s a mixed bag. The poll has a margin of error of +/-2.7 percentage points.

She can and will beat Trump, and there's a very simple, yet depressing reason why.

Voters don't care about issues. Oh, they say they care when you poll them. They'll complain about inflation, the border, abortion, the economy, whatever...all day every day. But they'll vote for people that give them bread and circuses. That's why Kamala rallies have twerking, rappers and entertainment. That's why, when you ask someone at these Kamala rallies what she did that they love, they can't answer with a single example of policy.

But they do hate Trump. And that's what the left pushes. Identity politics, and Orange Man Bad. That's all they've got. But because the average voter in this country is low information, it works.
 
Trump needs to breathe in lots of pure oxygen before he does rallies or interviews.

'Aggrieved, ignorant, tedious': Ex-GOP insider gives Trump's X interview a brutal review

David Frum, a former Republican insider and speechwriter for President George W. Bush, did not think much of former President Donald Trump's interview with X CEO Elon Musk on Monday.

Writing in The Atlantic, Frum contended that Trump did nothing to help his chances in the 2024 presidential campaign and instead only gave a tired rehash of grievances and attacks he'd leveled countless times in previous interviews.

"The X Spaces interview delivered Donald Trump without makeup or dress-up, talking unselfconsciously: manic, boastful, untruthful, aggrieved, abusive, obsessive, random, ignorant, tedious, b----y — and ultimately, formless and endless," Frum argued.

What most amazed Frum was the fact that Trump still doesn't seem to grasp that he is no longer running against an 81-year-old President Joe Biden but against Vice President Kamala Harris.

"Trump’s not running against President Joe Biden anymore, yet he talked about Biden at least as much as about his actual opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris," he observed. "He still lacked any clear or memorable critique of her, except for his derisive comments about her supposed inability to do the kind of interview that he, Trump, was making such a desperate hash of. Trump is the challenger and the topic should be the Biden-Harris record, but he preferred to reminisce about his own good old days."

The larger problem for Trump, continued Frum, is that most Americans are simply tired of being subjected to his shtick for the last eight years.

In other words, Frum said, Trump has the opposite problem of the one that beset President Joe Biden, who would disappear from the public eye for long stretches.

Harris, in contrast, has limited her exposure to the media while also giving rallies to enthusiastic crowds.

"This is Trump’s problem," he concluded. "For all his jibes at her intellect, Harris is managing the mystery appeal effectively. Whereas Trump, who endlessly congratulates himself on his MIT-professor uncle’s brains, is fast arriving at the 'Will you please shut up?' phase of his political descent."

You're right. So long as they can keep the girl power campaign going it's clear sailing. They'll provide as much cover for her as possible. They'll pretend Kamal just jumped on the scene a few weeks ago, the past will be scrubbed and memory holed. She truly will be unburndend by what has been.
Of course she could ramble off some really off the wall shit and torpedo her own campaign, or the mideast could go off the rails completely pre election. Other than that she sails to victory and then we'll see what the dog does when she actually catches the car.

The puppet master who is controlling Biden (whether one person, a group, or an entity like the military industrial complex) will control Kamala. And then, four years from now when everything is just a shitty, the media will come out to make Kamala the savior again. And the low information democrat voter will fall for it, as always.

The funny thing is that the folks on the left on this forum will rail about things like the military industrial complex, but then unknowingly/unwittingly vote for candidates that support it.
 
Tsing’s mom will vote for Kamala, Kamala will win, Tsing will post one of his classic, narcissistic letters, disown his mom, tells us how the world is over, buy more guns. The End!
