The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,858 posts)what Avenatti thinks. In a few months, after his trial is over and he's sent to the Big House where he won't have a phone to tweet with, he'll fall into the memory hole where other ridiculous and useless people are consigned after their single brief moment of undeserved fame is over. Every candidate will probably pick up a few endorsements they'd rather not have, but unless those endorsers are politically significant in some way, and/or if the candidate indicates some approval of the endorsement, it won't matter even slightly. Gabbard's fans, for example, include David Duke and Richard Spencer, whose ideology is so repugnant that their fandom does not reflect well on her. But Avenatti's problem isn't his political ideology; it's just the fact that he's a weapons-grade grifter.

(32,731 posts)If the democratic nominee is viewed as racist, that's automatically going to cause a large segment of the democratic base to stay home. So unless the candidate(s) doing the attacking can defeat Biden AND win those states, then they are essentially handing trump the election. Remember, Russia's overall strategy was to use race to divide us and affect our elections. It looks like they might not even have to get involved this go round. For whatever reason, we've decided to use this year, of all years, with democracy hanging in the balance, to start fighting about all sorts controversial/divisive issues. I hope at some point we can calm down and look at the big picture. Look at what trump has accomplished with the courts. We've been set back decades! Wake up people! Next year is our last chance to get things back on track.
