What happens to Kamala’s momentum now the DNC is over?

Anonymous
It’s so telling that when a democrat insists Kamala had policy positions online and no one can find them, someone starts ranting about abortion/Roe v Wade.

Call her stupid all you want. She’s not. She’s a former prosecutor who has run a campaign with amazing message discipline— and discipline, period. It’s going to be an amazing contrast to Trumps rambling and erratic behavior.

Plus, she’s younger than Trump and much more attractive. I think the visual of youth v age and Trump rambling and her shrugging, saying she can’t respond because he’s incoherent and weird and looking younger and better is a JFK v Nixon moment.

She does not need to be policy heavy to win because Trump’s main policies are grievances and retribution. Her upbeat campaign will do well against that.

Plus, Trump is on his heels. He has yet to find a good response to her. None of his insults are sticking. He can’t even land a good nickname.

Maybe I’m wrong. But, I think Trump looks like Biden did in his first debate when he goes against her. Definitely think more people than normal will tune is.


What is her message though? Other than criticizing Trump and throwing out some grand ideas she can never accomplish, what’s her platform?


If she has one then she hasn’t made it public yet. Maybe at her first press conference this week she’ll tell us.


What day and time is she going to give a press conference?

Kennedy and Trump is all you’ll hear about until a debate.


Debate is in two weeks. And Kennedy positive buzz will last as long as JD Vance’s did. Because “a worm at my brain and I put a dead bear in Central Park” is weirder than even couch humping. Incels understand couch humping. No one understands brain worms and putting dead animals in public parks.

The Dems have a momentum that we haven't felt since Obama. The base is ready.

Kamala addressed the nation, not just the base, in her speech. Independents are polling for her, not for Trump.

No one is passionate about RFK. He was the "none of the above" candidate and has been tanking.

We're good.


RFK was polling quite well in a number of swing states, and the margins there are razor thin. I do think it matters.

I don’t think Kamala and Walz can survive forever on the good vibes machine. Obama had good vibes and policy and he was fighting the establishment (GW Bush). Kamala has nothing more than the vibes, and that’s not enough.


It does matter, but let's be honest, the people supporting RFK wanted an option that wasn't Trump. They still won't want Trump


But they will vote for him over Harris


Or they will move to Jill Stein, who is also on the ballot in many places again. Or do a write in for him. Or not vote.


Oh, that Jill Stein.

That’s all they have right now- just a black Indian woman that likes abortion.

I’m still interested in policy as most people are.

They said she’d do them after the DNC, so it should be a regular occurrence starting this week.

Concern trolls keep concerning. You don't actually care about her policies or her positions. Trump literally didn't have a platform in 2020 (it was a rehash of the 2016 platform) and has shown with his current "policies" that he has no follow through on how to implement these. The funny thing, policy positions only matter to the informed and educated, which would exclude 98% of MAGA voters. Those who are educated and informed openly despise what Trump, Project 2025 and the GOP presently stands for -- rendering the publishing of any policy position by Harris moot. Most voters identify with and vibe with the candidate, not the policies. But you knew that, didn't you?

1. Not Trump
2. No insurrections
3. Pro-choice.
4. Pro-NATO
5. Pro-Israel, but has separated herself from Biden on Gaza
6. Child Tax Credit

Etc. You realize she has a website with her policies, yes. Google is your friend.

That is, BTW is much more coherent than Trump, who has no policy positions.


What is her pro choice policy proposal?


I'm sure it's similar to this, which would codify Roe as Federal law: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/701



In fact, her campaign has publicly stated that this is her position. Restore Roe via law.

https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/29/kamala-harris-abortion-restoring-roe-00171657



So, no third trimester abortions. That means that in some states that now have no restrictions women will have less reproductive freedom under Harris than they would under Trump.


No stupid, that's not what it means.


The person thinking things through is not the stupid one. If the state has no restrictions right now and then Congress passes a law that imposes restrictions and Kamala Harris signs it then, women in certain states will have less reproductive freedom under Harris than they do right now.

You actually think most Americans listen to this shit? They care about policy, what is Kamala’s policy?

So you don’t know where to find the policies on her website either?

Calm down. She's been the presumptive nominee for just over a month. Feel free to look at the policies that the Biden administration implemented or defended in the meantime. You, of course, act like she's entirely removed from her current position as VP (you know, a heartbeat away from leading the current administration).

Off the top of my head:
* Cap insulin costs at $35
* $2k cap on prescription costs
* Expand child tax credit to $3,600 per child, $6k credit for parents of newborns
* $25k down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers
