    Youngkin is Mr. September. As in see you in September after the first debate, Trump is mired in even more indictments and all the other candidates (DeSantis) have failed. Then and only then will you see Youngkin.

  4. Quite so, but there will be some foreplay along the way.

    Those who allegedly are not connected with Youngkin will get his name out there enough so that he will start being included in more hypothetical polls. It's the old "run his name up the flagpole to see who salutes" routine.

    You will recall that I have said several times I do not see Trump gets the nomination without Fox News embracing him fully - not just at the individual host level. I am still watching that. By Fox, I of course mean the Murdoch empire. So Rupert has abandoned Trump, and now apparently abandoning DeSantis- so yeh, Murdoch is a loose cannon rolling on the deck of the ship that I still watch. Wherever it lands, it has some fire power.

    Yep... there is really no difference between Trump and the fuehrer.

    Trump Campaign Email Sparks Nazi Comparisons

    Donald Trump is facing criticism over alleged antisemitic propaganda in recent campaign materials—following a long history of incidents in which he has been accused of emulating or, in some cases, replicating imagery deployed by Nazis in the 1930s and '40s.

  7. In simpler times this would be seen as a good sign for the dems.

    However, there are concerns being raised amongst the dems about Biden/Harris beginning to get "too much money." You know the dems are in this little period where they don't know how to navigate the fact that they want to see a dem ticket do well but they are not comfortable about being locked into Biden. No one has the answer but the more money that gets locked into Joe and Kamala begins to force them to come to grips with the fact that no other savior is or may be coming. They are sort of hoping to see some powder being saved for Newsom to come out of the bushes or something.

    Whereas over in Camp Pub - yes Trump is the clear leader- but money is still sliding all over the place from big donors and big players like Murdock, as discussed. A lot of money rolling around that either has not been committed or is being re-committed as Trump and DeSantis fall in and out of favor with various players.

  8. Lookin's flaccid for Pence, as usual. The end is nigh.

    Yo Tards, question for you. Where's your girl Liz Cheney in the primary races? Y'all mouthed off for months about what a rising star she was and that she would be running for president. Can you give us an update on how that is coming along?

    Pence raises less than $1.2 million, leaving questions about debate eligibility

    Former vice president Mike Pence raised less than $1.2 million for his presidential campaign during the second quarter of this year, an aide said Friday, a figure that is a reflection of both the antipathy toward the former vice president among rank-and-file GOP voters and the deep skepticism among donors that he has a path to the Republican nomination.

    Pence did not announce his presidential campaign until early June — and the second quarter fundraising reports only cover the period from April until the end of June, meaning his total covers a period of about three weeks. But the figure is notably small for someone who has held the position of vice president.

    Though Pence’s campaign did not reveal how many donors contributed to his effort, the sum suggests that the former vice president could have a difficult time meeting the criteria set by the Republican National Committee for candidates to qualify for the first debate in Milwaukee in August. To demonstrate the breadth of their backing, the GOP hopefuls must prove they have 40,000 unique donors with at least 200 donors per state or territory in more than 20 states or territories.

  10. Some aspects of the Biden-Harris fundraising are not as pretty when you look at the detail. I mean, yes, any cash is good but whether it is an indicator of support amongst the ranks is questionable.

    Biden campaign relying on cash from wealthy Dems as middle class withhold donations

    President Biden's 2024 re-election campaign is relying on large donations from deep-pocketed Democratic donors as support from middle-class voters has yet to materialize.

    The Biden Victory Fund has raked in tens of millions in donations from wealthy party members in San Francisco, Chicago, New York City and Washington, D.C., but his small-dollar donations are trailing well behind other recent Democratic campaigns.
