It’s all about branding. Gotta TM that Laffin’ Kamala for t-shirt purposes.

To be frank, if he ran with Bitchy Kamala, I would hope Harris co-opts it to Bitchin’ Kamala. Because I would wear the fuck out of that shirt.

Minnesota State Fair is in a couple weeks and the DFL booth always brings the fire with their shirt selection. I’ll definitely be buying a few this year.

Examples: https://store.dfl.org/tees/

Land of 10000 rights - https://store.dfl.org/land-of-10-000-rights-unisex-white-tee/

OMGGOPWTF - https://store.dfl.org/omg-gop-wtf-unisex-white-tee/

Thoughts and Prayers - https://store.dfl.org/thoughts-prayers-unisex-navy-tee/

And my favorite so far, Madam President- https://store.dfl.org/madam-president-unisex-black-tee/

It’s not about the spelling… Trump has trouble reading so he always sounds things out that he doesn’t quite understand or when he’s unsure of himself. It’s a pretty standard coping strategy for people who are still learning to read.

He does this constantly: Whenever he slows down (weirdly) during one of his endless rants it’s usually before a word he has difficulty with. Examples of words he regularly has trouble with: China nuclear, Venezuela, felony

In the past he’s said, “United Stage”, “respectered”, and often starts making noise sounds like, “ding!”, “boom!”, and “bam!” to distract from his mistakes… Like some elementary school kid in class that’s been forced to read out loud.

My personal estimate is that he has somewhere around a 4th or 5th grade reading level. After reading this, if you hear one of his speeches it will suddenly become so obvious that he has trouble reading that you’ll wonder how you never noticed before.

Everything that’s ever appeared on his teleprompter is the simplest words possible except in cases where avoiding complicated words is impossible. I’m certain he practices these special words with his handlers regularly and tries to repeat their emphasis of certain parts of words which is why he says some words strangely (e.g. whenever he says “China”).

I thought it was because he’s afraid he sounds like he’s saying “lion” instead of “lying”, and he doesn’t want to risk sounding complimentary.

It’s for his base to know how to spell it when they regurgitate it thoughtlessly on all their smedia accounts.

He loves the poorly educated so much that he has to go to extra effort to make sure they can understand his extra bigly smart joke.

His campaign managers are concerned he would say that publicly? Why?! Why do we still act like his cultists would be bothered? Why do we act like they have a fraction of humility and demeanour left in their bodies? They would love to hear that. Where the fuck have you been the last 8 years? Did you pay any attention?

The issue they have is, Trump can’t win with just his base. He needs to appeal to at least some percentage of voters outside of that group. It seems like he’s been doing everything he can to push anyone who isn’t already all in on him away since Biden stepped down.

Trump has never won the popular vote, his 2016 victory was based on highly gerrymandered areas with low populations and a high number of electoral votes. America is being held hostage by wealthy donors.

They don’t care if he says it. They just care if he gets caught saying it. Big distinction. They know their candidate is a racist shit bag.

“That is not language President Trump has used to describe Kamala, and it’s not how the campaign would characterize her.”

The most interesting thing about this statement is they have set Trump up to fail. Because you know he’s going to say that into a microphone at some point during this campaign.

They aren’t worried about alienating his base. They don’t want to galvanize hers.

“It’s ok. He says negative things about a lot of people.”

This is the excuse I got when I pointed out video of TFG mocking the disabled reporter to a die-hard Trumper. Also, she has a kid with Downs. Still didn’t break the Trump spell over her. She used to be normal.
