"Biden was vain, selfish, and delusional. He was also morally heinous, supporting Israel in its campaign of destruction against Gaza and pretending to be trying to end the violence. But plenty of others bear substantial responsibility for getting us to the awful position we are currently in.

In fact, Original Sin seems to be partly an opportunity for high-ranking Democrats to absolve themselves of any blame by shifting it onto Biden, now that he is weak and powerless (and, though they couldn’t have known this when they gave their quotes, stricken with advanced prostate cancer). The Harris campaign itself has plenty to answer for. It squandered a ton of money, and Harris made disastrous blunders, including refusing to break with Biden on Gaza. But if the story of the election is that Biden simply “fucked” the Democrats, so that it was impossible for them to win, nobody needs to be on the hook for these mistakes. Tapper and Thompson recite the old saying that “victory has a hundred fathers and defeat is an orphan,” which seems appropriate. There is little evidence in the book that top Democrats are introspecting or taking any responsibility for their own role in taking us toward 2024’s horrific outcome.

Some of the Democratic insiders that Tapper and Thompson quote were actively lying about Biden during the period where speaking out about his condition might actually have made a difference (...) [W]e don’t actually know who these people are, because Tapper and Thompson quote many of their sources anonymously.
(...)
In the story of the “emperor’s new clothes,” it is not the emperor, but the crowd, that ensures the survival of the lie. Much of the blame here clearly belongs to the coterie of sycophants who insisted Biden was fine when “he was clearly not fucking fine,” in the words of a top Democrat who nevertheless publicly defended the president every day."

"It isn’t minorities per se who are defecting. It appears to be especially concentrated among working-class minorities. Kamala Harris still beat Trump in the appeals to minority non-college-educated voters, but exit polls indicate that her lead shrank by 33 percent compared to Joe Biden’s. The Latino vote went from 71 percent Democrat in 2008 to 66 percent in 2016 to 53 percent this cycle. The media focus has of course been on its gendered nature, but the real story is that the rejection of Democrats is basically an economic phenomenon. It’s working-class Latinos who are leading the march into the Republican Party, and if you want to know why, just ask them — they say it’s their economic worries.

Taken together, this data shows that the party’s alienation from the working class is now extending across racial lines. It isn’t just losing white workers but all workers, regardless of race. This changing composition of the Democratic Party will only strengthen the inclination to marginalize its Bernie Sanders faction and to concentrate ever more fiercely on pulling the “Liz Cheney Republicans” into the electoral base, since they will coalesce with the professional-class voters that the party caters to."

"Threats to democracy

- 80% of Republicans endorse the false claim by Trump and his allies that Democrats are trying to win the election by allowing unauthorized immigrants into the country and giving them the right to vote. Public beliefs about the prevalence of voter and election fraud remain wildly exaggerated, especially among Republicans.

- Compared to October 2022, Republican acceptance of Biden as the rightful winner in 2020 has increased from 33% to 38% and their confidence in the upcoming national vote count has increased from 49% to 57%.

- 95% of Democrats, 82% of Republicans, and 77% of partisan independents regard it as important for the losing presidential candidate to publicly concede defeat, but Pew finds that only 59% of Trump supporters think it is important for him to concede if Harris wins.

- Experts overwhelmingly rate the Supreme Court’s July ruling establishing broad presidential immunity from criminal prosecution as a threat to American democracy, including 75% who view it as a serious or extraordinary threat.

- After the collapse of Biden’s candidacy, the popularity of an age limit for presidential candidates among the public increased from 61% in September 2023 to 78% today. The increase was driven by Democrats and independents, whose support jumped from 60% and 66% last year to 89% and 81%, respectively. However, 57% of experts oppose the proposal."

"I want Kamala to win so I can get a break from the madness, an end to the intimidation and blackmail, the manipulation and the mind-games. What they promised 4 years ago: getting back to normal — going back to the “new normal.” That is the reason — the only reason — anyone will vote for her. Dare I hope for it? But they have lied about everything else, so why should we believe they’re not lying about this, too? Will they finally leave us alone? The promise of an end to the drama might be enough to elect Kamala. I want it to be true.

But it is a lie."

The nationally recognized #IowaPoll shows #KamalaHarris picking up support from women to surpass #DonaldTrump in a ruby-red state he has won twice''

Democrat Kamala #Harris leads Donald #Trump in #Iowa 47% to 44%, a new Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll shows.

A victory for Harris would be a shocking development after Iowa has swung aggressively to the right in recent elections, delivering Trump solid victories in 2016 and 2020.

The #poll shows that women — particularly those who are older or are politically independent — are driving the late shift toward Harris.

Trump continues to lead with his core base of support: men, evangelicals, rural residents and those without a college degree.

"Anti-government militia movements have been continuing to use Facebook to recruit, coordinate training, promote ballot box stake outs, and prepare for a civil war that many militants believe will break out after election day. And in some cases, the movement is attracting people who don’t appear to have any prior background in a militia. Meta is even doing the work for extremist movements by auto-generating some group pages on their behalf.

Data shared exclusively with WIRED by the Tech Transparency Project shows that these groups have only continued to grow on Facebook, despite WIRED previously flagging this lapse in Meta’s moderation.

The brazen proliferation of paramilitary activity on the social media platform days before the election highlights Meta’s lackadaisical approach to enforcing its own bans against groups it has labeled dangerous extremists. Militias require platforms like Facebook to grow: It’s a tool for the paramilitary movement to strengthen and radicalize its network. It also helps them facilitate local organizing, state by state and county by county, and boost their membership."

#USA #PresidentialElections2024 #Trump #KamalaHarris #Tech #Crypto #Monopolies #Antitrust: "Now is absolutely not the time to cozy up to big tech, to pander to the crypto vote, or to preference the opinions of Silicon Valley executives. On a purely political level, little of the above is a winning strategy. Big tech is unpopular, cheerleading crypto—just a year after the industry nearly collapsed from widespread fraud—is hardly a good way to try to bolster pro-business bona fides, and siding with the Valley over working people will put a stain on a campaign that will be hard to wipe away. There is a reason that hating on big tech is one of our few remaining legitimately bipartisan pastimes. It may be tempting to try to recreate the Obama era’s ‘big data Democrat/happy Silicon Valley’ symbiosis, but those days are gone, the notion that tech equals progress long ago proven illusory. Furthermore, the fallout of the era is quite palpable, and all of the above is more likely than not to alienate voters and end in failure. In 2024, standing up to Silicon Valley, not succumbing to it, is the pressing need—and the better politics."

#USA #Trump #Politics #PresidentialElections2024 #SaneWashing #ConspiracyTheories #CrazyTrump #MentalHealth: "This “sanewashing” of Trump’s statements isn’t just poor journalism; it’s a form of misinformation that poses a threat to democracy. By continually reframing Trump’s incoherent and often dangerous rhetoric as conventional political discourse, major news outlets are failing in their duty to inform the public and are instead providing cover for increasingly erratic behavior from a former—and potentially future—president.

The consequences of this journalistic malpractice extend far beyond misleading headlines. By laundering Trump’s words in this fashion, the media is actively participating in the erosion of our shared reality. When major news outlets consistently present a polished version of Trump’s statements, they create an alternate narrative that exists alongside the unfiltered truth available on social media and in unedited footage.

Voters who rely solely on traditional news sources are presented with a version of Trump that bears little resemblance to reality. They see a former president who, while controversial, appears to operate within the bounds of normal political discourse—or at worst, is breaking with it in some kind of refreshing manner."
