Published 1 min ago on August 11, 2020By Matthew Chapman
After Joe Biden announced he was picking Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) for his running mate, President Donald Trump tried out a number of attacks at the days press conference, calling her nasty, disrespectful, far-left, and dishonest, among other things.
But according to NBC News, the Trump campaign is struggling to formulate a consistent message that will hurt her.
Snip
Harris was difficult to pin down ideologically in the Democratic presidential primary, which left many voters wondering what she stood for and hurt her candidacy and ultimately forced an early exit last December before the first votes were cast, reported Sahil Kapur. But it also now makes her a more complicated target of attacks by Trump, who has also struggled to land a punch on Biden: During the Democratic primary, Harris was a rare candidate who polled near the front of the pack but never earned a derisive nickname from the president."
More at link. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

It's only in serious arguments where they might be short on material.

(11,631 posts)Its not like he picked her out of nowhere and everyones gotta go dirt digging shes been the front runner for this position for months. The fact that they are unprepared just underscores once again how ridiculously terrible they are at their chosen profession.

She slept her way to the top.
She called Biden racist in the debates.
She's a socialist.
Already have seen these talking points on social media already. Let's not fool ourselves into thinking this won't get ugly fast.

(63,221 posts)With everyone except his hardcore base. The nastier he gets, the worse and weaker he will look. He will not gain any votes by trashing her and will likely motivate more people to go to the polls and vote for Joe and Kamala. I really don't think he's going to win with his usual "strategy".

(57,073 posts)I think he might put Haley on his ticket to *try* to attack Harris. 2 losers in a pod. 🤣
smirkymonkey
(63,221 posts)Kamala would chew her up and spit her out for breakfast. I'd love to see him try, though. Besides, whatever anyone who is undecided would have against Kamala, would have to have the same issue with Haley, being a woman of color (Indian).
