Seems reasonable to wait until Kamala Harris is confirmed as the Democrat Presidential candidate before bickering over debate details.

Which is what the Trump campaign leadership is saying, albeit using the same childish conspiratorial language that appeals to their MAGA supporters in doing so.



The Trump campaign said Thursday it would not agree to a general election debate with Vice President Harris “until Democrats formally decide on their nominee” after Harris said she was ready to debate the former president.

“Given the continued political chaos surrounding Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrat Party, general election debate details cannot be finalized until Democrats formally decide on their nominee,” Trump communications director Steven Cheung said in a statement.

Cheung claimed there “is a strong sense by many in the Democrat Party … that Kamala Harris is a Marxist fraud who cannot beat President Trump, and they are still holding out for someone ‘better,'” citing former President Obama’s lack of endorsement to date, though Obama is expected to back Harris publicly soon.



So my reading is that they are scared but not outright refusing to debate Harris. Not yet anyways.

They were fine debating Biden when he wasn't confirmed.

Source? Oh wait you swallowed it

Or this one

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2019/apr/02/donald-trump-golf-28-club-championships

At Trump Bedminster in New Jersey, Trump once won a senior club championship from 87 miles away. He’d declared that the club should start having senior club championships for those 50 and up, but he forgot that one of the best players at the club had just turned 50. Having zero chance at beating the guy, he went up to his Trump Philadelphia course on the day of the tournament and played with a friend there. Afterward, according to a source inside the Bedminster club, he called the Bedminster pro shop and announced he’d shot 73 and should be declared the winner. The pro, wanting to stay employed, agreed. His name went up on the plaque. “But then,” says the source, “somebody talked to the caddy up in Philly and asked him what Trump shot that day. The caddy goes, ‘Maybe 82. And that might be generous.’

Trump International in West Palm Beach, Florida, has a plaque on the wall that lists all the men who’ve won the men’s club championship. Trump appears three times: 1999, 2001, and 2009. But hold on. The course wasn’t even open in 1999. Turns out, then White House spokesperson Hope Hicks admitted to the Washington Post, Trump played in a “soft opening” round on 1 November of that year with “a group of the early members,” and declared it the club championship.

Samuel L Jackson was talking about playing with Trump, and Trump pulled it into the middle of a lake. But the ball boy magically found it.

Governor Abbott (Texas) sent a busload of border hoppers to Kamalas house in a performative stunt

Does anyone see the irony of a No Illegals Governor sending border hoppers FURTHER into the USA

He finally came out and said "We'll fix it so you won't have to vote anymore," out loud, in front of cameras...

Given that he was targeting the comment at christians, it's actually not too far fetched at all.

Because the biggest immediate AND long term threat to America from a Trump presidency comes not from what he does or doesn't do legislatively or even on the world stage, but what he will do in completing the job that first started under Ronald Reagan (the guy who came up with the MAGA slogan).

And that is to completely stack the Supreme Court with conservative judges who are totally beholden to the religious right of the conservative party (previously known as the Moral Majority).

Those fundamentalist Christians, especially but not restricted just to the swing states, are vital to the support for the Trump campaign. And in return for their support they demand a US Supreme Court that will unquestioningly back state legislatures to implement fundamentalist laws and restrictions - including the banning of abortions, restrictions on the economic, financial and social freedoms of women and the state persecution of marginalised groups including homosexuals and transgender people.

A network of Gilead Republics as portrayed in Margaret Atwood's The HandMaidens Tale.

The 2022 overturning of Roe v Wade was just the beginning in terms of the stacked Supreme Court winding back of constitutional protections of fundamental individual rights from religious zealots, not to mention the pro gun rights for individuals interpretation of the 2nd Amendment. Trump will ensure that the stacking of the Court with pro states-rights judges will be so comprehensive that reversing its pro states-rights majority interpretation of the US Constitution will take decades to achieve, regardless of who is President.

And a reminder that the issue of states rights vs Congress (in relation to slavery) was the spark that ignited the US Civil War.

Frightening stuff.

And isn’t it funny how in a country like Oz, where we actually do “have” to vote, 95% of us consider it just part of being an Australian citizen, not some hugely onerous task.

In part that's because it's not an onerous task for us. I think I once had to queue for twenty minutes or so, having had the choice of two places to walk each two minutes away from my house. Most times it's been barely a five minute wait.

The most significant consequence of our compulsory voting is that it places an obligation on the government (by which I mean the government machinery, in this case the AEC) to make it easy for everyone to vote. No holding elections on workdays, or making it onerous to register for a postal vote. No traveling to the single polling place in a large town or suburb and waiting for hours and hoping voting machines don't break down. No identification requirements - they trust us and most of the time that trust is warranted. No striking of people off the electoral register just because. No losing of voting rights because you have an unpaid parking fine (ok, a little bit of an exaggeration but not much). etc etc

Stark contrast. Don’t forget Trump said a few years ago “if we make it easier to vote we’ll never win another election”.

Will the fact that they've already had their convention cause them any problems? Biden was only ever the presumptive candidate after all.

The answer is rules don't matter when it comes to Trump

The Democrats didn't have an official candidate, Republicans do. If Vance was to withdraw, maybe, but removing him after the Trump/Vance team was ratified will be messy.
