Well, my mind, things have really changed. I’m talking about the energy, the political energy, you feel it. Trump supporters absolutely do Maga feels the difference. You know, for the first time, I saw Donald J. Trump, former president of the United States, on the defense on Fox News, you know, the Fox News, safe haven for all things bigoted. Well, Donald Trump goes on Fox News, and he is questioned about what other people primarily VP Kamala Harris now presidential contender is saying about him. So he’s on the defensive, he’s no longer playing offense. This is a different game now a different political competition. With Biden, he was going to do what basically he has always done, he was going to insult himself to the top. So the race to the bottom is the Race to the Top. That’s kind of how it works inside of Magga. So the more aggressive and rude and crude you can be, the better your chances are at becoming the champion for the Republican Party. Well, now you have VP Kamala Harris, VP, Kamala Harris is poised, she is able to literally transmute the negative energy calling Trump out on not debating, calling Trump out on his bigoted supporters. home he decides to not denounce. And here we go. I’m a college professor. I gotta tell you, my college students, they were very apathetic about this election cycle. So as many people were, and let’s make no mistake about it, Biden was elected in the Democratic primary, because of the electability argument, they just believe he was more electable against a Donald Trump, possibly correct. But every political cycle has its changes. And there’s a change in the political cycle. After the decision was made for Kamala Harris to become the presidential nominee, de facto, even my college students had a different energy, it was excitement. And then look at what happened immediately afterwards, the 44,000 Plus black women on a call and then you had the white women in Florida in the golf carts, and now you got white dudes actually raising money, we’re talking about millions and millions of dollars, the volunteerism is through the roof. The fundraising is record breaking, the energy has shifted. But what if this is bigger than Trump? And Harris? What if this has always been bigger than them? What if this is about all of our collective frustration with toxic male masculinity? Not male masculinity? There’s nothing wrong with being masculine. But I’m talking about the toxic con, what if people are sick and damn tired of toxic male masculinity? What if people are tired of systems, putting their foot on the neck of others figuratively? What if people are tired of manipulation, corruption, brutality, etc? What if they’re tired of gaslighting and they just needed a choice? They needed a clear contrast between two candidates, not two older white men. But a real contrast in the United States of America. What of this election is much more about the direction of the country than the direction of one person’s personality? What if Donald Trump never won the hearts and the minds of the majority of Americans? And I echo a point that I made a few months ago, Donald Trump did not win the hearts and minds of the American voter, because he never won the popular vote. So no matter what you may attribute to Trump, he has never received the majority of the votes. As it relates to his political challenger. It has never happened, which means the vast majority of Americans reject the idea of a Trump or Maga society. And now there’s a choice. That’s a contrast. What are they going to do?
Political momentum shifts in favor of Kamala Harris
By Straight Arrow News
A majority of Americans polled earlier this year said that they were disappointed with an anticipated Biden v. Trump rematch for the 2024 presidential election, indicating they were not particularly happy with either option. As those concerns mounted and President Joe Biden’s health visibly declined, President Biden announced that he would not seek reelection, and formally endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for the Democratic nomination later this month. That announcement triggered widespread relief, enthusiasm and record-breaking fundraising for Harris’s campaign.
Watch the above video as Dr. Rashad Richey talks about how this decision has energized American voters, particularly young voters and students, and argues that the political energy now favors Kamala Harris.
