Yeah, unfortunately the FOX debate is before the ABC one so if Kamala (hopefully) doesn't show up to the Fox News one, Trump will just claim Kamala is a coward and refuse to go to the other debates.
for sure but most people who are in the possible voters for Harris don't care about Fox so it won't sway them imo.

Yeah its a very clear attempt by Fox and Trump to get ahead of the narrative but most people can see through it.

Not to mention JD Vance is terrified of having to debate Tim Walz, so he desperately wants to debate Harris instead.

Rs are trying to get young people to vote too because they know (imo) that they are kind of in trouble with fringe voters like Smark mentioned earlier.

Gen alpha, once again, trending more conservative than their previous generations like Z did very early on but then Republicans messaging lost them so they need to find a way to keep Alpha before they sway liberal, but they don’t know how unfortunately.

But they’ll figure out it’s the Maga when they lose this election hopefully.

Yeah he's one of the worst VP picks of all time.

Vance has for the last few days tried to frame Walz as a traitor for *retiring* from the Army National Guard before his unit deployed to Iraq, which even a basic look into the matter shows its not only false but hilarious to think that the National Guard would send a 40 year old man to Iraq when his contract ran out 2 months before deployment.

Sarah Palin loved this pick

It’s funny too, because conservative media generally understand the importance of retaining conservative youth, and get young hosts like the comment section with Brett Cooper on the daily wire but politicians just have absolutely no fucking idea what they’re doing and just attack youth culture, and wonder why the young people aren’t showing up to vote for them.

I would also say attacking LGBTQ rights to a generation that has been more open to queerness than any generation previous outside of Gen Z is also a terrible fuckin strategy.

I voted for McCain and Palin :ortonout

And honestly 20 years later to date (wow time flies) I feel even more confident in disclosing that because McCain was a pretty solid, establishment Republican compared to what’s going on these days.

That’s the main issue with the religious right block is they actually don’t care about optics at all. When you have such blind faith, you don’t care necessarily about winning elections as long as they stay true to their beliefs or fucking whatever.

Thankfully though there are some blocks that understand that the social aspect of conservatism isn’t exactly a winning strategy and you can’t do anything, if you just never win, so there are some people like Tomi Lahren who is pro-choice, and some other youth conservatives that are very much against repealing gay marriage, and things like that because whether the religious community understand this or not there are gay Republicans so if you stop attacking them, you can grow your base.
