Pure Powerful Excellence, Steve! I'm so glad you brought up Epstein. Trump talking about Epstein's assets was sickening. We KNOW Trump was involved in sexual predation on young women. Thanks for hitting Trump hard. I personally would love to punch him out myself, but I've got you, thankfully!
No doubt Biden the elder statesman had the wisdom and the audacity to have selected Kamala. Biden laid the ground work into the bold future, here and abroad. It is up to Biden to let Ukraine give the final knockout blow, after over two and a half years of Russian’s daily killing in Ukraine, it is due past time. But here Kamala Harris, the supercharged antidote to Trumpism thankfully does not need his permission. She will deal a fatal knockout blow now and in November. We all just have to pitch in.
How right you are Steve. We the people have that power in the election box. We must send a message to Trump that we won't go back. We won't go back to only I can fix it. We won't go back to praising Putin for his cruelty. We won't go back to lies about crowd size and we won't go back to separating children as an immigration policy. We are through with you so go tell your lies at the 19th hole and leave the serious people to solve the problems of the day.
Trump is an UNAMERICAN BULLY who uses threats to get his way. The way to beat him is to not be afraid and to fight back. When we fight, we win. It's as simple as that. He and his entourage including Steven Miller are mentally ill and dangerous. Sadistic psychopaths. Most Americans know little to nothing about psychological disorders, so a specific mental health term will not be effective. "Weird" is the word that works. He's deteriorating before our eyes and now is the time to fight back hard. Bring it on, you pathetic, seething weakling. You don't scare me, and millions of us are ready to fight back. You and your brainwashed insurrectionists and their deranged general Mike Flynn will fight, but we the people in this Democracy and the apparatus of our government will fight back harder. The one who'd should be scared is Trump, and he surely is.
Watching video now, but I would encourage you to STOP referring to this lying unqualified POS as "The Donald". It gives him some kind of elevated air and he deserves much less.
It's possible the Trump campaign is experimenting with levels of sedatives in preparation for the debate--enough that he won't at some point lose his mind in anger, but at the same time not so much that he falls asleep at the podium and drops to the floor. Seriously.
Great analysis Steve! Keep up the great work because Traitor Trump should be down by 10 points rather than 4-5 points! VOTE ALL BLUE AS INTEND TO DO!!!
The latest with Mark Robinson is he was a regular for years at a porn shop.
Now, I do not give one whit about it. But it is quite rich that this is a man who goes to great lengths — and in nasty diatribes calling gay people “filth” or women like Beyoncé “skanks” — telling others how to live. Do as I say, not as I do. Yep, that is Mark Robinson.
"Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, regularly ad-libs false claims that his campaign is unable to substantiate. When CNN asked the campaign on Monday for any evidence of a school deciding to send a child into gender-affirming surgery without parental consent, the campaign could not provide any.
Tiffany Justice, the Moms for Liberty co-founder who conducted the public conversation with Trump, said in a Tuesday interview: 'Are kids getting surgery in school? No they’re not.' But she continued that she was still 'thankful to President Trump' for making the claim – since, she said, his remark has drawn attention to the important issue of schools facilitating children’s social transitions without parental consent. "https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/04/politics/donald-trump-fact-check-children-gender-affirming-surgery/index.html
Two points: First, Isn't there something in the Ten Commandments, that Moms for "Liberty" wants posted in every classroom, that condemns "bearing false withess"? Isn't that whatTrump did when he lied about schools providing this surgery without parental consent and didn't Tiffany Justice endorse that lie? Second, in order to have the freedom to make good choices we need accurate information. Condemning gender-affirming surgery based on a lie distorts the accurate information people need to make good choices in a Democratic society. But, that is not what these fascist Christians want.
Kamala should call him a liar because he is a liar, BIG TIME.
Harris should just keep repeating that we should be unburdened by the past so each of her word salad failures to make any salient point can just be forgotten as we seek joy and enthusiasm about a better Harris performance in the future.
But, let's not be unburdened by the past for Trump. No, not at all. As the standard Democrat hypocrisy of self-identified elites, let's weaponize everything we can about the history of Trump words and behaviors to destroy him. Little Kamala deserves victim coddling and a constant get out of rhetorical jail card... because you know... she is a leader of VICTIMS UNITED!
There is the pseudo intellectual Mikey spewing his personal invective as he lacks anything useful to say on the topic. Mikey, you are so gaslit by your media feeds, I fear if you walk to close to a flame you will explode in a ball of fake news methane.
Mike, as you can see, Franky Shank-Lee is--like his fellow Magats--very frustrated and revealing himself as a typical stuck-n-steamin' Trump Chump attempting to let off some of that steam by trolling Steven Schmidt's substack. My advice--have empathy for such a hopeless intellectual pretender and move on.
I signed up to Steve's Substact to learn something I did not know. I did learn something... that his followers are a vile and nasty bunch of emotionally uncontrolled clowns that believe they are elites. And they are terrible at having civil conversations because they have degraded into primitive tribal instincts to kill the other tribe, working class Americans, so they can continue to feel smugly superior. My job is to keep holding up the mirror.
I wish I could empathize with someone who appears more psychotically deranged than Trump, but who could actually imagine that exceeding the miscreant is humanly possible? But now we’ve been provided with an extended ostensive definition of psychopathy and instantiation of the idea.
Keny is also gaslit. You probably still think Biden is fit, and Kamala is a skilled and capable politician. You believe it because Facebook memes told you so.
I don’t use Facebook or most social media, Lee. I read books and articles judiciously, copiously and thoughtfully, processes clearly alien to your ken. And, FYI, in America we spell my name with a double n.
“Democrat hypocrisy of self-identified elites” Wow, talk about a word salad…I’m not sure I know any “self-identified elites” who also identify as Democrats…but go ahead and spew your hatred and divisive BS..it’s entertaining
A few samples from the lengthy list (155 in the article) of crazy things Trump has said:

111. “Many people are saying that the Iranians killed the scientist who helped the U.S. because of Hillary Clinton’s hacked emails.” (Twitter, Aug 8, 2016)
I don't know what you mean by, "let's not be unburdened by the past for Trump." But this article was published in 2016 and an up to date list would be far longer and contain even crazier statements. Trump was a liar, a fool, and an Ignoramus in the past and is even worse today.
Trump spends more time incessantly whining about his personal VICTIMHOOD than possibly any political incumbant or candidate running for office in modern history. For that matter you might as well toss in ancient history as well.
On that basis alone, pretzel-twisting, projectionist hypocrtites such as yourself Frank prove yourself to have ZERO credibility. There's a lot more to say but isn't that enough? That's a rhetorical question folks because perhaps above all we have come to know MAGA is like a dog to it's own vomit and has absolutely no shame. None.
Pure Powerful Excellence, Steve! I'm so glad you brought up Epstein. Trump talking about Epstein's assets was sickening. We KNOW Trump was involved in sexual predation on young women. Thanks for hitting Trump hard. I personally would love to punch him out myself, but I've got you, thankfully!

That second sentence is a knock-out, May. Pure dynamite. Well done!
Yes, pure dynamite, May!

We are through with you so go tell your lies at the 19th hole and leave the serious people to solve the problems of the day.
His debate prepper is Tulsi Gabbard. Between her and Vance, it is a ringside seat for Uncle Vlad.
Do not forget Trump’s Road Scholar sons! Credit them with bringing MAGAs JD!
What a find? A treasure in the making?
Anyone who votes for someone selected by Beavis and Butthead needs to seriously ponder their station in life.
Total Idiocracy!
I am sure Peter Thiel had something to do with bringing on Vance.
Wow!
How proud Trump was to confess his mental game for slippery lying. “I weave”. As in BOB and WEAVE?

TFG is "TFG", a "sexual predator", a "Fascist", and "demented dangerous nut-case".
I can only call him Chump because that is what he is and that is what his supporters are.
Good catch, Mike! It also harkens back to a time when we had an amusement with him, thanks largely to his wife Ivana. Hope Steve sees this.
Convicted Felon DonOLD works for me.
I think trump might have a nervous breakdown before the debate and might be going to the hospital first.
Yes, even his spray tans have become 'abstract expressionist' paintings. He's imploding!
I like the way you think.
An escape, perhaps!
The essence of this video is contained in the very last part. "It's all madness. Make it stop." Yes. Let's do just that. Vote.
