2024 LANDSLIDE - WHY & HOW!

 

 

On the eve of the Democratic National Convention of 2024, a key landmark in the 2024 election campaign, here is a post about …

 

WHY AND HOW THE DEMOCRATS 

CAN WIN 

A LANDSLIDE VICTORY

UP AND DOWN THE BALLOT

 

This is – will be -- a multi-part series. Additional sections, many related to different aspects of HOW to win a landslide! will be posted as the campaign evolves, and this post itself may be updated as (minute by minute!) election day approaches…

 

WHY

 

A SUBSTANTIAL MAJORITY OF AMERICANS FAVOR DEMOCRACY!

A SUBSTANTIAL MAJORITY OF AMERICANS FAVOR FREEDOM!

THIS GENERATIONAL CHANGE – THE KAMALA HARRIS – TIM WALZ TICKET -- IS GENERATING HUGE AND GROWING EXCITEMENT AMONG VOTERS.

THERE ARE MORE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS THAN REPUBLICAN VOTERS. AND… ADDING TO THE DEMOCRATS THE GENUINE REPUBLICANS (who believe in a republic!  as opposed to the RINOS who support Trump’s project 2025) THERE ARE MANY MORE DEMOCRATS PLUS NORMAL REPUBLICANS THAN THERE ARE EXTREME RIGHT WING MAGA VOTERS.

ELECTIONS DEPEND ON HOW PEOPLE FEEL ABOUT THE CANDIDATES, AND KAMALA & WALZ ARE ELECTRIFYING THE ELECTORATE.

THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES FAVOR THE DEMOCRATS. (More about this later!)

THERE ARE MANY, MANY WAYS THAT ALL THE OTHER ISSUES FAVOR THE DEMOCRATS AS WELL.

THE USA IS MUCH MUCH BETTER OFF THAN WE WERE FOUR YEARS AGO.

THE BIDEN-HARRIS TERM HAS QUITE A SPECTACULAR RECORD OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

 

WHILE ON THE OTHER SIDE:

 

(IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER),

·        TRUMP IS A CRIMINAL,

·        HE IS A SEXUAL ABUSER,

·        HE INCITED A VIOLENT MOB AS PART OF A PLOT TO REMAIN PRESIDENT EVEN THOUGH HE LOST THE ELECTION,

·        HE WAS CONVICTED OF A MASSIVE FRAUD OF ROUGHLY HALF A BILLION DOLLARS,

·        HE IS A LIAR,

·        HE IS A HYPOCRITE,

·        HE FAVORS PUTIN OVER THE US.

o   AT TRUMP’S DEMAND, THE GOP BLOCKED AID TO ISRAEL & UKRAINE FOR MONTHS

·        HIS SPEECHES AND INTERVIEWS ARE BECOMING MORE AND MORE INCOHERENT,

·        AND IN SOME OF THE MOST DANGEROUS TRAITS A PRESIDENT CAN HAVE:

o   HE IS FOR SALE,

§  CHANGING HIS POLICIES WHEN HE IS GIVEN ENOUGH MONEY.

o   HE IS EGOTISTICAL,

§   INTERESTED IN WINNING AND SERVING HIMSELF, NOT SERVING THE COUNTRY, 

o   AND HE IS DELUSIONAL

Worse, possibly, than all of these together, Trump appears to be not just normalizing insults, THREATS, violence and physical attacks, as part of his political and legal process, but actually encouraging them.

 

BEYOND THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, THE GOP VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE IS NOT CONNECTING WITH VOTERS. (FYI -- WHEN ASKED WHY HE PICKED VANCE, TRUMP EXPLAINED SIMPLY THAT… HE LIKES ME.)

AND THE ENTIRE GOP PARTY IS REPORTEDLY SHORT OF MONEY TO SUPPORT THE ENTIRE TICKET IN NON-PRESIDENTIAL RACES.

THIS IS NOT HELPED WHEN TRUMP SUCKS MONEY OUT OF LOCAL & STATE REPUBLICAN PARTIES FOR HIS PERSONAL CAMPAIGN AND LEGAL EXPENSES.

 

IN CONCLUSION

·        SOME OF THE MOST DISTINGUISHED REPUBLICANS IN THE COUNTRY WORKED FOR TRUMP, AND NOW SAY HE IS UNFIT TO BE PRESIDENT.

o   MANY OTHERS WHO WORKED FOR HIM ARE IN JAIL.

§  HE “DRAINED THE SWAMP” RIGHT INTO THE WHITE HOUSE.

·        BY CONTRAST

o   DEMOCRATS, INDEPENDENTS & EVEN TRUE REPUBLICANS ARE ENERGIZED!

§  AFTER  BIDEN RETIRED FROM THE CAMPAIGN, KAMALA AND HER TEAM HAVE BEEN EXECUTING AN ALMOST PERFECT CAMPAIGN.

o   THE BIDEN-HARRIS TEAM HAS HAD AN EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL TERM.

§  THE ECONOMY IS TERRIFIC.

·        THE STOCK MARKET IS AT ALL TIME RECORD HIGHS.

·        PRICES ARE MODERATING AND INTEREST RATES ARE GOING DOWN

·        JOBS AND WAGES ARE UP.

·        STUDENT DEBT IS DOWN!

§  IMMIGRATION IS DOING BETTER

·        (IF THE GOP HAD NOT TANKED THE BIPARTISAN IMMIGRATION BILL ON TRUMP’S COMMAND IT WOULD BE DOING EVEN BETTER)

§  THE CHIPS BILL & THE INFRASTRUCTURE BILL ARE MAKING AMERICAN MANUFACTURING COMPETITIVE WITH THE WORLD, AGAIN.

 

HOW

FIRST OF ALL: YES ,THEY ARE DOING VERY WELL! AND YES, I BELIEVE THEY WILL WIN BY A LANDSLIDE AND YES, THE POLLS SHOW THEM CONSTANTLY IMPROVING, BUT

1.      TO MAKE THIS PREDICTION OF A LANDSLIDE COME TRUE EVERYONE INTERESTED IN SEEING THE HARRIS/WALZ TEAM WIN HAS TO WORK AS HARD AS THEY CAN TO MAKE IT ACTUALLY HAPPEN. A LANDSLIDE WILL NOT HAPPEN BECAUSE I PREDICT IT.

a.      ONLY HARD WORK CAN MAKE A LANDSLIDE HAPPEN!

2.      THE POLLS ARE STILL CLOSE

a.      POLLS ARE NOT THE SAME AS VOTES.

3.      THERE ARE HINTS THAT TRUMP & HIS COLLABORATORS ARE TRYING (EVEN HARDER THAN THEY DID LAST TIME) TO STEAL THE 2024 ELECTION

a.      ONLY HARD WORK (LEGAL, LAW ENFORCEMENT, WELL-TRAINED POLL WORKERS & MORE) CAN MAKE SURE THE LANDSLIDE IS CERTIFIED!

DISCLAIMERS, APOLOGIES AND BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES

APOLOGY:  I apologize to anyone who is offended, for calling Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris mostly by their first names, and Trump, Walz, and Vance by their last names; it just seemed more familiar and easier to identify them that way, and in some cases more appropriately friendly -- or not.

BIO NOTES: The author began campaigning for Democrats in High School, joining Eleanor Roosevelt trying to unseat Tammany Hall, and elect Reform Democrats in New York City (Author’s note: I have a photo I took of Eleanor Roosevelt gamely climbing into an open campaign truck with volunteers to go to the sight of a rally.)

 In College he became a member of the Executive Committee of the National Student Young Democrats, and chairman of the policy and platform committee. He campaigned for Adlai Stevenson in the Primaries, and worked and slept at the Stevenson Headquarters at the DNC convention in LA. After Kennedy was nominated, he worked to organize student Young Democratic clubs at colleges in NY and neighboring states.

 

After starting graduate studies in physics, he continued to follow politics and political issues.

In 2005, he began writing news and opinion articles about film, theater, new media, science, technology and political issues in QPORIT: Quick Previews Of Random Interesting Things. In 2015, he invented the term eXtended Reality (XR) in an article here, in QPORIT.

 

 He is currently preparing a book and presenting a series of talks called

EXTENDED REALITY AND THE FUTURE OF US ALL
