Ebullience seems to be fading from the Donald Trump presidential campaign, if messaging from top operatives is any indication.
After weeks of dunking on Joe Biden after last month’s presidential debate, which spurred doubts about the President’s competence, pollster Tony Fabrizio is among those recalibrating the campaign’s message now that Vice President Kamala Harris is the presumptive Democratic nominee.
Fabrizio says the so-called “Harris honeymoon” will be a “manifestation of the wall-to-wall coverage Harris receives from the (mainstream media).”
“The coverage will be largely positive and will certainly energize Democrats and some other parts of their coalition at least in the short term,” Fabrizio suggested.
From there, he said polls will go against Trump in the near future, just as a fresh Reuters poll is now that shows Harris with a marginal lead over Trump.
“That means we will start to see public polling — particularly national public polls — where Harris is gaining on or even leading President Trump. Obviously, the situation we find ourselves in today is totally uncharted territory and has no modern historical parallel,” Fabrizio added.
He expects that just as Trump got a “bump” from last week’s Republican National Convention, Harris is bound for one of her own when Democrats convene.
“Given what has happened over the past couple of days and her impending VP choice, there is no question that Harris will get her bump earlier than the Democrat’s (SIC) Convention. And that bump is likely to start showing itself over the next few days and will last a while until the race settles back down,” Fabrizio predicted.
This communication follows one from top Trump advisors Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles on Monday, that also was an effort to massage the narrative on the GOP candidate’s behalf.
“The liberal elite and deep state — sensing the American public’s disgust with their lawfare, and now in a desperate Hail Mary — have swapped out an incumbent President for the incumbent Vice President in a ploy to try and shake up the race.”

It’s hysterical to see the GOP suddenly all concerned about how the Democratic party nominates its candidate. It’s going to hit them like a ton of bricks that they made a huge mistake elevating a US Senator with only 18 months of experience as their VP. Sarah Palin, but with better syntax, put in place by a billionaire who expects an ROI. Diet Mountain Dew, anyone?
They are now stuck with the oldest major party nominee in the history of the United States and a party that can’t help showing its bigotry. Couldn’t happen to a nicer cult.

Michael, I’m not sure but I think we’re witnessing the first signs of the MAGA meltdown. The Trump maniacs are realizing that young people and Independent voters have a candidate who excites them.

MAGA Song Mashup
The MAGA wing built this party…
They built this party on hyperbole..
They built this party…
They built this party on lies and bull..
Now, I guess it’s their party, and they can cry if they want to…

Someone that has the AI image generator should run this.
Two Panel Meme:
1) Hillary Clinton noshing on snacks, says I was “under fire” at a cocktail party shows a high wall fireplace in a posh NYC apartment.
2) Donald Trump was “under fire” and is raising his fist in the air shouting “Fight!” while the Secret Service noshes on food from the other panel.

Funny. Harris is very unlikeable. She was the first to drop out in 2020 because no one likes her. She failed miserably at her border tasking. Her word salad conversations and her uncomfortable giggling is painful to watch. However suddenly now she is the messiah and she will lead the zombie party to the promised land. Hilarious.

Have you seen Trump give a speech? Talk about random word salads. Sounds like someone is projecting.

If there is a debate, Trump will need to discipline himself enough not to go off on KH but calling her Nancy.

The recalibration Tony is reminding the MAGA base is a pep talk. What will he tell them a month from now when Kamala is leading Trump by seven points?

It will surely be someone else’s fault. It always is. Maybe they will blame it on Ron DeSantis. Or the deep state. Or TikTok. Or indigestion. But never that the candidate sucks and has met their match.

I didn’t read it as a pep talk at all. I took it as a “whoops”. I think the race is over now.

Pitts – you silly goose. Your shtick is as old, tired and unhinged as your failing candidate. Time for your nap, grampa.
