CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 14, 2024
IN CASE YOU HADN’T NOTICED THERE ARE TWO POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS BEING RUN AT THE SAME
TIME. ONE IS BY THE CANDIDATES THEMSELVES. THEY APPEAR AT RALLIES AND SPEND LOADS OF MONEY ON ADS
TRYING TO PERSUADE VOTERS THEY CAN DO A BETTER JOB THAN THE OTHER PERSON. THOSE ADS ARE USUALLY
DISENGENOUOUS TO SAY THE LEAST.
THE OTHER CAMPAIGN IS THE ONE CONDUCTED BY THE MEDIA TO SWAY LOW INFORMATION VOTERS TO THEIR LIBERAL POSITIONS.
THERE ARE MORE EXAMPLES THAN I HAVE TIME TO SITE. TIME MAGAZINE, WHICH NO ONE I KNOW READS ANYMORE, HAS A COVER PICTURE OF KAMALA HARRIS. IT IS A FLATTERING DRAWING.
HARRIS DIDN’T DO AN INTERVIEW WITH THE MAGAZINE. SHE HASN’T DONE ANY OR HELD A NEWS CONFERENCE SINCE SHE WAS SELECTED BY THE PARTY AS THEIR CANDIDATE. IT’S A NEW VERSION OF THE BIDEN BASEMENT STRATEGY AND FOR NOW IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING AS HER APROVAL NUMBERS HAVE RISEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON. APPARENTLY SOME PEOPLE APPROVE OF A POLITICIAN WHEN THEY DON’T TALK MUCH.
THE MEDIA ARE ALL-IN ON HARRIS AND HER RUNNING MATE. ANYTHING NEGATIVE IS EITHER IGORED OR SPUN TO THEIR ADVANTAGE. IT HAPPENS VERY ELECTION CYCLE AND ESPECIALLY THE REPUBLICAN NEES A STRATEGY TO BREAKTHROUGH. SO FAR, DONALD TRUMP DOESN’T HAVE ONE, BUT HE BETTER DEVELOP ONE SOON. I’M CAL THOMAS.
