She raised more money in a single day than Trump, the convicted felon and traitorous, treasonous, lying coward pedophile rapist.
It was her FIRST day, ever, as Presidential candidate.

And it was money raised through small donations. Something like a half million donors were donating for their first time.
Contrast to Trump, who gets an allowance from Elongated Muskrat
Over a million individual donors now, and counting.
That is... well, it sounds remarkable. What are previous figures for candidates?
In 2020, there were only 2 million individual donors, to any candidate or party, for the entire cycle. A million in a weekend is pretty impressive.

Sounds exactly like something a senile old man would say.
He’s probably a man, in at least one sense of the word. That’s about it.
"Behold a man" said Diogenes to Plato as he threw Donald Trump into Platos school. "The fuck it is" responded Plato calmly.
Imaging trump with all his hair plucked out, squawking around a bunch of philosophers is pretty entertaining.

He’s more boy than man, if we’re talking maturity

Well, his mind is young. He speaks like 10 year old.
This is insulting to 10 year olds.
My apologies to 10 year olds 😔
Emotionally, he's about three. Aware of other people, but how they feel is of no account whatsoever to him. Lashes out at people for disagreeing. Lies to get his own way with no real remorse, but hates being found out and says it isn't fair with no understanding of what fair really means. Hasn't learned to share. Makes and breaks friends for very superficial reasons. Hasn't learned the long term benefits of friendship and looking after others. Doesn't like being held accountable and thinks that's unfair. Calls people names.
Why, yes, he is a very special boy!

Kamala is 60? Wow, she looks 45 at most.
I'd offer up a "Black don't crack" but I think all the time about what 8 years in office did to Obama. They must have a hyperbaric time chamber attached to the Oval office.
Yeah, my husband and I both guessed early 40s before looking it up. I’m sure some of that is down to money and excellent healthcare access, but damn.
She'll need it. This job ages you.
Only if you actually do it. Trump got aged by drugs and hamberders.
Trump looking in the mirror:
Kamala fucking with Trump subliminally:
Image: Kamala smiling with hands outstretched, palms out-- showing off her totally normal-sized hands.
Kamala, her hands outstretched.
Donny, when his mind was fogged.

Young? Harris was born in 1964. The same year that Cadet Bone-spurs turned 18 and got his first deferment to avoid the draft.
Not fine.
Not brilliant.
Not young.
Depending on the definition of “Man”, not one of those either.
He identified as a man and his chosen pronouns are he/him. The right love it when we clarify this.

Convicted Criminal and Sex Offender Treason Trump is always the exact opposite of what he calls himself.
"very stable genius"? Nope. Deranged idiot.
Dementia Don the racist rapist with 34 felonies doesn't even realize he's too old. He can't even complete a coherent sentence. He should drop out, it's just embarrassing.
Leave it to Trump to try and suggest that 79 is "young", rather than play up the wisdom and experience angle. I'm not sure how anyone can support a leader who consistantly denies objective reality in the name of fluffing his ego. But there are a lot of reasons to deny Trump the presidency long before something as relatively small as his hubris. Well, small relative to being a known rapist and convicted felon, anyway.

More proof of his mental decline, likely dementia.
Many are people are saying he should just step down now and stop embarrassing himself.
Being his campaign managers/operatives must be tricky.
They have to feed his ego. Coming out and acknowledging his age is just not an option, and they can't straight up tell him "you cannot get on a stage with Harris because you will inevitably say something bad that hurts your campaign."
They have to do all that while wondering if he's even going to pay them lol

fine and brilliant young man
Are you sure he was referencing himself? None of those words describe Trump.
I do find that I use the word "and" a lot when Referencing Trump.

Awe, Alzheimers kicking in. He’s remembering his younger years. though, he was never fine or brillant, so clearly the memory is going bad also. But hey, you’ve got to love the doddering old fool…
Oh right, fuck you don. I am now sure you will see some prison time after you lose this election. You deserve nothing less.
