I’m sure that seems like what is happening in your radicalized brain that can only think in conspiracy theories. |
Wow. So much here. Trump should have no problem winning, if only what you said was true… but you have nothing but weird YouTube hosts feeding you lies. |
If this messaging is working to bring in young people, then great.
But doubtful it will work with middle aged and older Democrats that she needs to win. For the most part, older Democrats I know think some of what the party supports is weird. Remember the political appointed bald guy with red lipstick that stole ladies suitcases from airports? Remember the drag queens and trans influencers on the White House lawn and one went topless? These things are weird by definition. Calling women birthing people is weird. So for older voters, I think the messaging should call Trump what he is, convicted felon, rapist, insurectionist, etc. Just calling Trump weird actually downplays how dangerous he is and his administration would be. |
Weirdos is very close to losers. Flipping DT’s language so calmly and effectively is driving them nuts. |
Oh, sweetie. There is nothing "seems like" about it. This is very much what is happening. And, the MSM is ready to comply. The bat signal went up and the left and its proxies... the media.... all got it. |
I mean Trump has made it his modus operandi to call his opponents losers, low IQ, dumb as a rock, and other insulting things. And his followers accept that without objection. In fact they seem to enjoy it. So what’s the big deal about Dems using one word, weird, which isn’t half as crude as what Trump says?

I am middle age and my family is old and trust me. We've been thinking these people are weird for a very long time |
Be easy on him, he's just getting ready to host the 2028 Olympics in LA. |
Does Harris plan to run on anything other than identity politics and personal attacks on Trump?
Can someone who supports her say what she considers the most important issues, and her position on them? |
+100 So obvious what is going on. The mainstream media is a mouthpiece for Democrats. Luckily more people are waking up to the lies and propaganda by listening to other things like podcasts. CNN viewership numbers are embarrassingly bad. |
+1 I'm in my mid-40s and my parents/in-laws are in their late 70s and we all agree that Vance and Trump are weird, and that the cult-like devotion of their followers (taping maxi pads to their ears?) is also weird. Remember that most of Gen X spent our critical early years in the Free to Be You and Me era, and that today's Boomers are the ones who raised us. They thought it was great that Sesame Street taught us about racial integration, public transportation, and breastfeeding on-screen. They gave us gender neutral toys and dressed us in matching corduroy overalls with our brothers. They are also from the generation where women died from lack of access to reproductive healthcare and couldn't get checkbooks until they were in their 20s without their dad or husband to sign off. They don't want to go back, and neither do we. |
To be fair, looked more Ike panty liners. Also weird. But, truth matters. |
All politicians (and really anyone on the television screen) wears makeup. It's just that Vance wears it *badly.* This is a funny parody video, but the thing it gets right is the way conservative politicians do their makeup to mimic having been wearing sunglasses outside: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dV_J8TRlBqE Once you see it, it's hard to un-see. As for why Vance's makeup is so badly done, I'm guessing that Vance & Co have alienated a core demographic that includes a lot of makeup professionals. |
There are other threads for that. This is the "Trump and Vance are really weird" thread. Given it's Trump and Vance, we're inundated with new content every day so this discussion should stay active if you're interested. |
