[1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-07-13 “Democratic party in disarray, doubts growing, candidate support waning while Trump ahead in polls”. Do you want this to be the mainstream news media narrative going into the election? It certainly plays into horse race journalism, where people are on the edge of their seat, biting their nails because anything could happen. It creates an environment where campaign ads are selling top dollar. Well, this will be the narrative if we don’t unite and stay on message. Do I have doubts about Joe Biden being able to serve for another four years? Yes. My heart sank watching the debate. Still I trust and respect the man. I also trust the team of people he has assembled to lead our country. I trust that Kamala Harris is ready and able to step up should he need to step down during his second term. Should the DNC and the electors decide she should be the chosen candidate, I have faith she will be successful. Should she need to replace him between the convention and the election, I have faith we will still win if…If we stop squabbling among ourselves, stay on message, and stick together. This applies to all scenarios. The GOP, Donald Trump, the Heritage Foundation, and mainstream media wants democrats to be in disarray and in a state of uncertainty. Let’s not give them that. Look, I like many of you, are already certain that I will vote for the democratic nominee whoever they’ll be. Here’s a simple message, a mantra if you will, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Donald Trump to exercise the powers of a king, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Donald Trump to appoint or replace more Supreme Court Justices that will give him a get out of jail free card, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Donald Trump to help the rich get richer and screw working people, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump using Project 25 to stack the government with his toadies. VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump ruining the planet for our children, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump telling you what god you should believe in and who you can love, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Donald Trump ruining social security, medicare, medicaid, and VA benefits, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump to take away rights and protections for working people, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump treating black or brown immigrant like vermin, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump forcing every woman or child who is raped to give birth, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump ruining the system of public education for all, so wealthy people can get vouchers for private schools, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump’s foreign policy to be “What’s in it for me?” VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump to become a president who only represents his base, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump to pit states against states in competition for his affections, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump building a team that includes Steve Banon, Stephen Miller, Sebastian Gorka, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Matt Gaetz, VOTE BLUE! If you don’t want Trump to be a president who sells pardons, VOTE BLUE! Who is Donald Trump running for? He’s not running for you, he’s not running for me? He’s not running for his country, he’s not running for his family, and he sure as hell ain’t running for Jesus. He serves only himself. A better question is, what is he running away from? I could add to that litany, but the point is, we need to stop bickering about who should be our candidate and shine a spotlight on the big orange flatulent elephant in the room. There are independent voters, apathetic voters, and traditional republican voters that need to be won over. You may not get them to like Biden or like Harris as a candidate. But you may get them, in the privacy of the voting booth, to vote blue because they don’t want to live in Trump’s red world. Make it a simple choice for them in the 2024 election, red or blue? We need to keep it simple, stick together, be certain, be strong and we will win. Come hell or high water, VOTE BLUE!
