    Trump and Musk are trying to destroy America.

    This is designed to drive a wedge between the First Amendment and the practical need for the truth.

    They are “Flooding the Zone with Shit” which either corrodes our ability to communicate or causes people to embrace curbs to free speech.

    Either way it destroys America.

    Some of this Progress 2028 stuff sounds based as fuck though. If only she was running on that.

      For real. The fact that all of these are just more Republican lies is extremely disappointing:

      “She’s committed to banning fracking, phasing out internal combustion engines, and rolling out the most progressive Green New Deal yet,” another section of the Progress 2028 plan reads.

      “will support a nationwide gun buy-back program that will take dangerous weapons off our streets"

      “Let’s remove barriers for undocumented immigrants who are undocumented!” one ad states, adding, “Access to affordable housing, driver licenses, and fair wages creates a stronger America for everyone.”

      Republicans are so detached from the American people that they think these ideas would scare us. It’s no surprise they suck at parody, but by putting these words into Harris’s mouth they run the ironic risk of pushing undecided Independents or seemingly-ignored Progressives to vote for her.

        The goal isn’t to scare progressives or even the democrat base. This is to split voters who are center right to vote against the progressive version of Project 2025.

        They literally saw how bad Project 2025 hurt them and instead of coming out against it, said “We should put a fake libder version of it together! That’ll show em!”

        The sad thing is that it might work.

          They always think it’s doublespeak for mandatory surrender, because it’s all absolutes and projection. See any argument about reducing gun ownership that’s just them slapping the table about how there’d still be guns, so a criminal could get a gun, and therefore that’s a limitless supply which cannot change the number or severity of gun crimes.

        I could see this working if targeted towards never Trump Republicans, but they’re risking accidentally motivating people to actually vote for her based on something she was never planning on doing.
