Yes. Either you’re not American or you have no sense of humor.


It's... a camo hat.


DP. I don't get it, either. It's just a regular (IMO ugly) hat.

We all understood the anti-Semitic barrage the Trump campaign was preparing to launch. It was obvious they thought stoking anti-Semitic sentiment would win them Michigan. We are all very happy those attacks aren’t going to happen now.


OMG, now I’ve heard everything. Shapiro wasn’t chosen *because of the massive amount of antisemites ON THE LEFT* who would have caused absolute havoc rioting at the DNC (and elsewhere). Progressives have been harassing Jews and anyone pro-Israel for months now. Harris knew that choosing a pro-Israel Jew as her running mate would lose the “progressive” vote. In short, she totally appeased the antisemites in YOUR party.

But how typical that you would conjure up fantasies of Republicans engaging in an antisemitic barrage. We’ve all seen with our own eyes the pro-Hamas antisemites on the left. Keep up that gaslighting.


Shapiro wasn't chosen because he pulled himself out of consideration. Let's just stop with the nonsense.


He wasn’t chosen because Democrats, Socialists, Communists, or whatever they’re calling themselves today hate Jews.


The various Jewish Senators and Congressmen, Governors and the second Gentlemen would all disagree.


Admit it, we’ve reached our Jewish ceiling.


Remind me which of those Jewish governors, senators, and congressmen are republicans?


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Jewish_American_politicians


So 0 governors, 0 senators, and 2 representatives. Seems like republicans have a Jewish problem.


You didn't click on the link to Congress. There it says,
This is a list of Jewish members of the United States Congress. As of 2023, there are nine Jewish senators and 26 Jewish members of the House of Representatives serving in the United States Congress.


Plus, if you check the listing in the table for Chuck Schumer, it adds the note
First Jewish Senate Majority Leader and Senate Minority Leader[29]


He is currently the Senate Majority Leader.

Anthony Blinkin is current Secretary of State and fourth in line in the Presidential Line of Succession (behind VP, Speaker of the House, Senate Pro Tempore).
Janet Yellin is current Secretary of the Treasury and fifth in line in the Presidential Line of Succession
Merrick Garland is current Attorney General and 7th in line.

We have not reached the Jewish ceiling. The primary reason that Shapiro was not chosen was because the timing was bad. In addition, he has some additional skeletons in the closet. Right now, the Israeli-Gazan war is a major news issue. And unfortunately, there are incidents in Shapiro's past that make his choice now, based on his prior actions (like his reaction to pro-Palestinian protests in PA) make him one that would be more hurtful than helpful to the ticket. In the future, when the was in the Middle East is not such a big headline issue, then that may be less of any issue.

There are other Jewish Americans who may be able to withstand the historical vetting process in the future, especially when this major issue is no longer so major.

Right?! Why didn’t she pick Shapiro and try to make a battle for PA? Did Shapiro not want it? Did the opposition research find stuff on him or Kelly? This is “meh” for me but maybe he’ll surprise us?

Shapiro wants to be president one day so he’s going to work his butt off to get Harris elected.

This election is going to be one on who wins the communication narrative. Walsh is a great communicator, especially for average folk.

Also seems he communicated better with Harris.

Democrats fall in love. Well, I just fell in love, folks. I think there is a lot of excitement and it ain't for TFG whining on Truth Social for Biden to come back.


Glad you vote with your heart and not your head. Let us know how that works out for you.


I’ve said that many times here. Dems vote based on emotion. Republicans do not.


The GOP is all fear and anger - those are emotions. Your criticism is not remotely original, and it’s both outdated and incorrect.


Wow, so.much.projection. Democrats have been insisting that Trump will “end democracy!!” The threads on this forum are beyond fear-mongering and looney rage. They are truly unhinged.
DP


Anyone who’s taken European history understands the difference. You’re either trolling, young, or not very educated.


I’m middle-aged, not trolling, and very well-educated. What we have here is a group of fear-mongers insisting the “end of democracy” is nigh because they can’t stand the Republican candidate. In short, anyone making that claim is beyond simpleminded and not to be taken seriously.


Simple minded NYU history professors and Yale philosophers. Sure. There’s a difference between “is near” and “is at risk”. Sounds like you’re lumping them all together or not distinguishing between the two.


Np here. The problem is that this is the refrain every single election for the Democrats.
I'm 40 years old in every election I have been eligible to vote in it's the same cry.
It's become like the boy who called wolf.

It's better to focus on actual policy and what has hurt and helped.
