I love Kamala, she is exactly the right person to be VP, and would easily step into Presidential shoes, should it become necessary. Meanwhile, Republicans have used all of this crap before- shouting, shaming, belittling, name calling, and generally being a**holes in order to hurt the chances of every qualified woman in the Democratic Party. They’ve been doing this long before Hillary Clinton entered politics in the 1980’s.

Republicans are desperate to win, I believe it’s because they are hiding so many corrupt actions, have changed so many regulations to help their corporate bosses, including those that will help save our planet, that it will take years and many investigations to find and correct their heinous acts. Who knows just what they’ve done to accommodate Putin and their other foreign friends. We will need many forensic accountants, hopefully under Elizabeth Warren, to sort out the loopholes GOP created in the tax act and the regulations that guard the economy from being raped by unscrupulous corporations, banks and Wall Street gamblers.

Republicans are the criminal party, we need to face that truth, say it to yourself a few times to truly believe it, it’s not that both parties are corrupt,,,no, it’s GOP that have become corrupt in order to appease their donors and those who hold kompromat on them including the July 4th traitors. Republicans in their greed for power and money want to hold onto that power, everyone single one of them (except Trump), know that what they have done since 2015 will send them all to jail.

Fear is what shows with every tweet, every meme, every Op-Ed in New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, by Republicans and their journalists, words and articles that slam Kamala in any and every way possible, we will know then, just how desperate Republicans are and just how corrupt some of the media are by their actions.

Keep your eyes and ears open, keep checking that your name is still in the voter roll, if not, be sure to register, get ID if you intend to vote the regular way, if not send your completed ballot in ASAP, remember, Republicans are counting on their voter suppression tactics, their gerrymandering, and their attempts to outright destroy, by setting fire to, or bombing mail boxes or hold your vote up in the mail, to win...and, as it gets closer to voting day in November the opposition will try everything, increasing the violence until Democrats will be afraid to vote. As they did in Portland and Chicago, they will have jailed those persons who protest, which they consider to be dissenters.

I’m counting on us to vote in a landslide, certain that we will get enough votes to destroy Trump, and win extra seats in a Congress/Senate get all your ducks in a row, help your family, your neighbours, friends to vote if it’s feasible to vote in person.

Above all, stay safe, wear your masks, wash your hands, keep social distance from everyone (outside of your family) help your children do the same.

America, our country and our democracy depends on every single vote this year. Don’t fall for Republican games, you will know them by their incredible offers, or heinous lies.

Great article, Greg. God, you make me laugh so much with your brilliant, sardonic shade (all the more effective because: underpinnings of truth). Pretty effin' rich for that sick little trunt Lahren to be insinuating that others have slept their way to success... Maybe there'll be a spot for her on the county fair circuit when the Grand Ol' Pharty finally sinks....

Yeah, the Republicans just can't seem to gain a foothold in their intended campaign to malign Harris. I think the tough-on-weed claim is ridiculous, not only because a simple search of her record says otherwise, but also because she has been open about her own enthusiastic consumption of the sticky icky (https://youtu.be/Kh_wQUjeaTk).

As for the deeply disturbing racist and sexist attacks, those who are convinced by such naked rhetoric are not the type of people we can persuade otherwise. This is factory whistle politics - a dog whistle is far too subtle.
