The 2024 US Presidential Election Watch Thread 💙⭐️💙⭐️💙

I heard an interesting interview with Pete Buttigieg on The Daily podcast from the NY Times for July 27, 2024. He was insightful, well spoken and straightforward, as usual. He gave his thoughts on how the election scene has changed since Joe Biden stepped down, and what a Harris presidency might look like.

One small tidbit: the Harris campaign has taken to calling T---p "weird"; and not so much the sign of the "End Times" or despoiler of virgins or the foreteller of Fascism in America. I love this, "weird", in a marketing way. It says a lot about some smart people on Harris's campaign staff. A casual word like "weird" sets Kamala apart as one of a younger generation. It's not as threatening or dire as some of the other phrases that the DNC has used. It's not awkward. (Remember Hillary's "basket of deplorables" to describe Magats?)
