Even before Kamala Harris began her acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention, her campaign made clear to Donald Trump against whom he would be running. The introductory video included a snippet from an interview in which Harris was discussing how a woman moved forward in a man’s profession. “Sometimes people will open the door for you and leave it open, and sometimes they won’t…and then you need to kick that fucking door down.” Although they bleeped the operative word and Harris laughingly apologized for her language, the message to Trump was right there, calculated to be unambiguous.
Trump shared a Truth Social post featuring a photo of himself with RFK Jr. with the text, "The Strongest anti-establishment ticket in American History." Meanwhile, JD Vance is probably off in another Pennsylvania donut shop.
Trump is in the "hope something sticks" phase. In the end, he is counting on both the ignorance and the naivete of independent and disaffected Republican voters. He cannot win any other way. When the race was between who would lose more of their 2020 voting bloc, Trump looked like a winner. Not so now. One thing is certain...he can bluster all he wants but he knows he's behind.
