Just my opinion but I’m confident Trump’s handlers knew exactly how he would behave when interviewed by three women, three Black women, at NABJ. Neither they nor anybody else in the Republican crime syndicate (it is not a legitimate political party) thinks Trump is going to win over Black voters. They want sound bites and clips for their white supremacist supporters.

Via Rupar:

Kamala #Harris in Houston addresses Trump's bonkers appearance at the #NABJ: "The divisiveness and the disrespect. And let me just say. The American people deserve better ... a leader who does not respond with hostility and anger when confronted with the facts."

Senator Chuck Schumer (who is Jewish) is a "Palestinian and a proud member of Hamas," Trump falsely claims.

I'm happy old people can be #POTUS again now that #Biden destroyed that #corporate narrative by out thinking everyone political in his sacrifice to the #oath of service.

No one on TV discussing Trump being old and obviously #racist with his old tropes and recycled attacks at the #nabj
#weekendatbidens

News orgs that agree to interviews, panels, debates, etc… with the caveat of no fact checking aren’t news orgs.

They are mouthpieces.

Four years ago' under Donald Trump America had no toilet paper or food.

Why is this old cognitive decline white supremacist running for president again?

I've updated the story at Law Dork to include the Eleventh Circuit's order late this afternoon blocking the Title IX rule, an order the DOJ said it interprets as covering the plaintiff states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. lawdork.com/p/alabama-axon-tit

The republicans are not trying to win this election. They are only preparing to contest it, and use their judges to invalidate it at every level. When Harris wins, the fight for democracy will start. #harris2024 #gop #democracy #Project2025 #agenda47 #VoteBlue2024

uspol; Trump doubles down on Harris comments 

Holy fuck, dude, if anyone else was doing this I'd say they were trying to lose an election on purpose.

Thank you for the advice and support. This job hunt has been hard on my mental health.

Serious question:

Why did NABJ allow a member of Trump's publicity team to sit on that stage, pretending to be a journalist, while hijacking the discussion and teeing up Trump's talking points for him?

I don't mean to pick on NABJ -- our political press has been a disaster since 2016, and NABJ's comparatively excellent event today was a breath of fresh air. I'm just saying, if they make such a serious mistake, what hope is there for other organizations to get it right?

@GottaLaff Please understand that GA Gov may hv stood up to Trump but he wiped 400K off the voter rolls as Sec of State when he was running for Gov against Stacy Abrams. He is NOT a friend to democracy and cannot be trusted. #BrianKemp
