This new line of attack takes on an even stranger bent when one considers the fact that Trump’s historically unpopular running mate J.D. Vance has an Indian wife and biracial children. If he had even a trace of dignity left, Vance would condemn Trump’s new strategy. Instead, he described his cult leader’s deranged remarks as “totally reasonable” because he’s a spineless coward who will always choose his own pursuit of power over principles.

Meanwhile, Harris continues to pull ahead in the polls. She’ll be announcing her vice presidential pick in the coming days and given the quality of the names on her shortlist, she’ll likely see an even bigger surge in support. Whoever she selects will have an easy time cutting a sharp contrast with the deeply weird Vance who will, once all is said and done, likely go down as the worst VP pick in history. He can’t appeal to moderates, has hardly any government experience, and is viscerally off-putting to voters in a way that’s difficult to fully articulate. It seems that every day a new clip emerges of him espousing some creepy fringe belief about reproductive rights, rape, children, or “childless cat ladies.”

Beyond that, Harris has an enormous advantage when it comes to the material issues of this election. Abortion is going to be a principal factor this November and Trump’s repeal of Roe v. Wade hangs like an albatross around his neck. She’s a former prosecutor and he’s a convicted felon. She stands for democracy while he’s an out-and-out fascist responsible for a deadly insurrection. Harris wants to expand healthcare access, provide paid family leave and childcare, and support our allies abroad. The only things on Trump’s agenda are a national abortion ban and more tax cuts for the rich. The choice is simple. Now, let’s get out there and spread the message.

Stay focused, stay energized.

PRE-ORDER “SHAMELESS”

I’ve written my first book, titled “Shameless.” The book lays bare the long con of the Republican Party, illuminating the dangers of the ever-widening gulf between the vaunted Republican brand and their actual behavior; how the media has proven itself a willful participant in this farce; and how Democrats can rebalance the political landscape. Featuring insights from Jen Psaki, Pete Buttigieg, among others, and with a foreword by Jamie Raskin, Shameless will be essential reading as we head toward November.
