[Order David Horowitz’s new book, America Betrayed, HERE.]
Harris’s selection of Walz at least reveals the left’s full-bore agenda, something that previously her handlers seemed at pains to hide: an overt doubling down on the Biden neo-socialist record that will require a far more vigorous stealth 90-day campaign to camouflage the hard-left record of both Harris and Walz.
Minnesota under Walz became merely a smaller version of Gavin Newsom’s California—shameless woke pandering, wars against fossil fuels, fiscal nihilism, thousands fleeing the state, high crime, high taxes, poor services, sanctuary city/pro-illegal alien activism, eroding downtowns of once majestic cities, loud-in-your-face, attack-dog denials of reality, a two-tier state legal system, tolerance of BLM/Antifa/Hamas street violence, and on and on.
So Walz is a force multiplier of Harris’s vulnerabilities.
His selection (was Harris terrified of leftwing threats from her base that a Shapiro pick would guarantee her 1968-like riots at her Chicago convention?) did not just reveal the now overt anti-Semitic, anti-Israel nature of the Democratic Party (Shapiro would have likely ensured Pennsylvania’s electoral votes). Her pick also reveals the confidence that the Left has in winning what will be the most flagrant, bait-and-switch 90-day campaign in presidential history.
So, the real Harris-Walz campaign messaging will be: ‘In 2024 we have to lie and mislead you about who we are and what we did, so that in 2025 we can govern you in ways you will not like.’
What are the challenges for this weirdest of tickets?
Harris, in Biden-fashion, cannot finish a coherent thought. So again, like Biden in 2020, she will retreat and outsource her campaign to the media, while counting on outspending Trump 3-1, and radiating feigned moderation.
She is taking heat for neither yet meeting with a real journalist nor speaking impromptu. But in her defense, to do either might at any opportune moment collapse her stealth campaign, given that to listen to her for 60 seconds off script is to prefer her to remain silent and hidden. And she has confidence in absentia that a bankrupt media will praise her nonexistent elegance, fluency, and articulateness.
Walz will customarily serve as a designated hit man for Harris. But he is just as much a liability— a shoot-from-the-hip blowhard, while owning an even more embarrassing leftwing record than Harris. And he is even less discreet.
This week Walz introduced himself to the nation as a VP candidate by smearing J.D. Vance with the brazen “couch” lie. And then while foolishly beaming, he doubled-down on his crude slur (“See what I did there?”). So, he even outdid Harris who had recently called Trump a “predator”—just days before it was disclosed that her married husband earlier had once impregnated his own children’s young nanny and tutor and had never disclosed what followed from his predation.
Both will either ignore or lie about their joint opposition to fracking and pipelines; their disgraceful pro-BLM/Antifa advocacy during the lethal and destructive 2020 looting and rioting; their support for open borders and illegal immigration; their woke pandering; and their generic leftwing promotion of the usual high taxes, big government, poor services, and ‘who cares if they flee my state’ arrogance.
The Harris-Walz ticket will also collapse if, horribile dictu, the prior Biden-Harris appeasement of Iran, distancing from Israel, weakening of the military, and loss of deterrence in the next 90 days leads to theater-wide wars on the Ukrainian borderlands or in the Middle East and/or to a recession due to cumulative inflation, high interest, stagnant wages and anemic citizen employment, and unsustainable national debt service.
In sum, Trump is very much even in the race. He was given a rare gift by the shunning of Josh Shapiro as Harris’s running mate. That leftwing blunder could energize the Trump campaign—if again he sticks to warning the country of who these two are, what they have done, how they are hiding their real agendas, what they will do if elected, and how they differ from his own presidential record and future agenda.
Nothing else matters. And that means Trump should ignore the now inert and evaporating Biden, refrain from attacking any Republican, stop all recriminations about 2020, avoid race and DEI ambushes, and prep hard and in detail for as many debates as he can obtain.
Trump should appear magnanimous and above the fray by compromising with Harris on the debates: one debate now by her rules on ABC, and one by his rules on Fox before early voting begins.
Rarely have the Democrats so foolishly gone hard left.
And when they did in 1972, 1980, and 1988, Republicans used to know how to use those gifts, expose them, and win landslides despite media and institutional bias.
They can do it again, but only if they are as adroit, united, and disciplined as their predecessors once were.

Trump needs to use Minnesota and California as examples of what the Denon-Rats wants to do to the whole Nation
Onzeur Trante says
Clueless Americans (e.g., viewers of Morning Joe, The View, just plain stupid people) are lapping up the Campaign of JOY! of the communist candidates running to make America a very joyless place to live.
Mike says
The only thing that scares me more than Trump winning and becoming President is the thought of Harris winning and becoming President.
I think a lot of Americans who are not on Social Media and the Internet 24 hours a day feel the same way.
jo says
These scumbags are sick and demented. A bunch of faggots and trans much like this tampon guy. Everything they do turns to shit and chaos. They cheat, steal, and blame others for their pathetic mediocre jobs. I take that back, mediocre would be exceptable. They do this on purpose. What bothers me the most is that they are desperate to change the laws and rules to fit their narratives rather than playing by the rules because they know who stupid they sound every day. There is not a day that goes by these scumbags don’t make the news in a negative way.

I can say with certainty they don’t think that way.
Chris Shugart says
Multipolarists, Trumpists, and Globalists, oh my!
Jacqueline Leslie says
Nice article. I do not have a magic wand to surmise what the Republicans think. I also do the same for the left. They only think I can really say is that if what the left wants to do or what they say is always evil and no good for anyone let alone this country.

No such thing as a free lunch
Washingtongriz says
IMO, the country is screwed no matter who wins in November. If the Dems win, we’re screwed, and if Trump wins, we’re screwed.
Because then the Dems will unleash hell upon the country that’ll make Trump’s first term look like a picnic. In fact, losing in November may be the Dems’ best option.
Jimbini says
Margaret Thatcher famously said, “The problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people’s money.”
Sarah says
Ever notice how many of us suggest what Trump should or shouldn’t do? Why is that? Because he’s erratic, unreliable, and does stupid things, including when he’s poised to build momentum and instead undermines himself, all of us, and the future of the country.
Why does he do that? Because he’s a grandiose narcissist and, as such, cannot resist such urges. Narcissism is intractable. Narcissists don’t/can’t change. And being a narcissist, Trump cannot tolerate any insults to his fragile ego, be they large or small, real or imagined.
He hits back and anything that moves if he feels threatened or insulted. The idealization of him as a “fighter” includes situations where he fights indiscriminately. He keeps throwing punches, even when they don’t serve the end goal. And, in my view, it’s not always because he loves America (though I believe he absolutely does), but because sometimes he’s fighting because of an insult to the ego and nothing more.
The scariest part is that, being a narcissist, he’ll take us all down with him because first and foremost, above all else, is his instinct to punch back at any or all times, his unwillingness to see clearly and learn, his resistence to ever take responsibility for anything (always the victim and someone else’s fault).
We’re on thin ice at this most critical time in America. Can Trump pull off a win? Maybe. Maybe not.
And then there’s the electorate, a group of increasingly brainwashed fools who consume what the left is dishing out, loving every minute of it. It may not matter that Harris isn’t doing any pressers, is vapid, is a dangerous Marxist, etc. because, perhaps, too many Americans don’t understand and/or don’t care.
G-d help us all.
Jeff Bargholz says
Your mom does that shit, not Trump, you lunatic.
Only an insane asshole would want Kameltoe or any other Dirtbagocrat as President. They’ve spent the last three and a half years destroying the country and that’s UNDENIABLE.
Fuck, I hate scumbags like you.
CowboyUp says
That, “mind your own business,” only flies until you consider walz set up a snitch line for lockdown breakers, and forced state employees to get the experimental covid shot,
Banning porn in elementary schools isn’t weird, putting it there is. What’s gone viral is dems with their blue haired superfreaks calling anybody weird. The memes write themselves.
Walz lying about his rank and his military service isn’t going to help either.
Good luck with that mess, I bet the dems boot them and slip someone else in there at the convention.
cat says
Well, I suppose you really are “Asian.” and a communist to boot. Lefties always give free lunch paid for by someone else, not them. Duh! (Trump is not a good speaker? ….that’s why he has to glom onto concerts to get a crowd…oh wait…)
cat says
VDH has a condescending attitude toward Trump, that I had hoped he would have overcome by now. Every A$$h*le and his cousin knows exactly how `Trump should behave and what he needs to say and not say.
I bet VDH had a cow when Trump said “they tapped my wires`” back in the day, and he thought that instead Trump should have had a cup of tea with an effete pinky in the air.
Trump, who I have met and spoken with, is not a narcissist , He is a brilliant business man and strategist, an entertainer, and a big softie who loves people and the country. He is damn funny. If you’re an uptight west coaster used to think tank snobbery, his NY sense of humor may go over your head.
Trump has a very hard task. He is up against 24/7media lies, a 9 year smear and hate campaign. law suits, idiots telling him how to speak and of course an assassination attempt (Ooo maybe mentioning that is too impolite for VDH). Should Trump lose, it was NOT because he called out election fraud in 2020 or told the truth about DEI (which almost got him killed).
If he does not succeed, will all be the worse for it and we can squarely blame his enemies and not blame him.
Steve says
I have not heard of VDH before. A search brought up Virginia Department of Health. Would you please tell me what that abbreviation stands for?

Victor Davis Hanson.
Old Fogey says
As the federal government gains increasing influence of the lives of Americans, imports millions of replacements for traditional citizens, careens toward insolvency, and destroys the social fabric of freedom and shared responsibility for a civil society, pundits and posters debate the merits of restoring a president who – however imperfectly – battled to restore power to the people and their state governments while seeking peace abroad and continuing p and augmenting – the folly of the current regime.
This choice would not be so important if the federal government were limited in its scope to Constitutional powers and responsibilities. But that ship sailed in the 20th Century, and it’s hard to imagine ever restraining Leviathan again. So globalists of both parties play on the laziness and selfishness of Americans to shut down the great experiment of self government and freedom our founders bequeathed us. And they are so upset that Donald Trump might slow their conquest that they have tried to jail, bankrupt, and assassinate him.
Think what you will of the candidates, but only President Trump holds out an offer of saving our republic.
RS says
This is not the happy go lucky party that these two portray. Their agenda will be far. more dark and sinister after they are elected.
RS says
America can expect more tragic times under these two….Just look at their records. This is not the Happy go lucky party like they try to make you believe. Their motives are far more dark and sinister.

Quote … from the author Hanson Victor Davis for emphasis …
” … the real Harris-Walz campaign messaging will be:
” ‘In 2024 we have to lie and mislead you about who we are and

So true. That has been the depraved strategy of the lying Pelosi Slut in the House of Representatives for many years..

Open Letter to Donald Trump’s Presidential Campaign
In order for President Trump to defeat the lying deceptive treacherous sinister democrat political machine whose policies are harming and destroying America, and stabbing in the back working and middle class US citizens,
Trump must make a dramatic announcement that as president he will initiate a Mobilization of America and US citizens and American business, the aim of which is to ” Preserve, Protect, and Defend ” America and US citizens, and particularly, the working and Middle Class of America.
Trump must make a dramatic policy announcement covering the top political and international issues that are harming America and US citizens.
Trump must announce that he will designate Mexico as an enemy of America and US citizens because of Mexico’s promoting and implementing the INVASION of America and facilitating the murder of 100,000 US citizens with Mexican manufactured fentanyl/drugs.
Trump must state that Mexico/ the Mexican government has committed acts of war against America and US citizens.
Trump must announce the the US will withdraw from NATO. NATO was created as a response to the spread of communism and Soviet aggression in Europe. Neither exist for more than 30 years. The communist and the Soviet threats no longer exist. Therefore, NATO serves no purpose other than to provoke war in Europe.
Trump must announce that his second administration will demand that the United Nations be removed from the USA and that America will withdraw as a member of the UN and cease all US funding of the UN. All interaction with other nations will be conducted on a purely bilateral basis … one to one between America and each individual nation.
The UN has been taken over by enemies of America for many years now. The UN implement policies that harm and damage America and US citizens. Therefore, the UN is unwelcomed in the USA. and is hereby dispatched out of America.
Donald Trump must declare that in his second administration he will designate Islam as a blackmailing violent murderous enemy cult that harms and damages America and US citizens and its friends and allies such as Israel.
Domenic Pepe says
Open Letter to Donald Trump’s Presidential Campaign … (continued)
Donald Trump must declare dramatically ….
If Islamic cultures societies and countries do not immediately reform themselves and cease their blackmailing, their aggression and terrorism and wars against non-Islamic peoples, then America and it friends and allies will deal decisively to eliminate all depraved murderous Islamic “Royal” families and Ayatollah regimes that have been harming and making war against America and non-Islamic people throughout the world.
Under Donald Trump’s second administration the 1400 year aggression and depraved violent murderous scourge of Islam will end … one way or another, to the benefit of America, the West, and humanity itself.
Donald Trump must make these dramatic policy announcements in order to defeat Harris/Walz and the deceptive lying democrat propaganda machine.
Jeff Bargholz says
Walz is a retard and so are you. Do you eat shit and make stupid faces with it? I bet you do.

Assland, try breathing once in a while. You may not come off as stark raving insane. Then again, you probably will…
truebearing says
The leftist clown show of Harris/Awalz seems to derive from Obama’s toothy tactics where he promoted “fundamental change” as if it was automatically superior to anything Americans did for all of those years where we won 2 World Wars and excelled in every category imaginable. The idiotic, inappropriate grinning and mugging for the camera have Obama written all over them, and are just as ominous. Harris and Walz are laughing at the tremendous damage they plan to inflict upon America, just as Obama was. I think this aping of Obama– certainly not an accident — needs to be constantly pointed out to the voters. The left is guffawing in advance of the destruction it has planned. Minneapolis still hasn’t recovered
