Concerns have caused fractures to appear inside Trumpworld, with some Maga allies criticizing advisers

Donald Trump’s campaign recognizes that it could lose in November if the election is decided on “vibes” and “energy”, according to people close to the former president, as Kamala Harris continues to ride waves of momentum with her newly announced running mate Tim Walz.

The concern has also started to open fractures inside Trumpworld, with some Maga allies criticizing Trump’s political advisers for running a campaign that may be too structurally deficient to stand up a ground game in swing states.

The Trump campaign has sketched out a strategy to hit back and are expected to cast the Harris campaign as the most progressive ticket, as they aim to get the political messaging back on their records in office and away from coverage about Harris’s extraordinary enthusiasm with voters.

    Trump…could lose in November if the election is decided on “vibes” and “energy”,

    My brother in Christ you’ve already seen the response to Project 2025, you think policy will be a better angle of attack?

    I honestly think there’s been a shift in the American population. I don’t know if it’s just a new generation coming into voting age, cultural influence from social media or a reduced effectiveness of Red Scare type propaganda - probably all of them and more I’m forgetting.

    Regardless, I don’t think “progressive” is a ticket killer anymore. Harris doesn’t seem to either since she leaned into it with Walz. Hell, isn’t Bernie still *the" most popular politician in America?

    She just needs to mimic Walz’s disarming responses to accusations of socialism and progressiveness and they’ve got nothing.

      This is all from Bernie waking a generation up and opening their eyes to what could be. It’s been over 8 years since he first ran and got into the spotlight. Millennials woke up, and saw that there is another option, now a lot of their children are of voting age in a generation that doesn’t listen to 24 hour news cycles that just fear monger, they aren’t scared of the immigrants or trans people. Bernie may not have been elected but he pushed generations to realize how fucked we are and that their is something to do about it. He pushed Harris to pick Walz. He mobilized the grassroots that have now hitched up to Kamalas wagon. Hopefully, things keep trending the way they look like they are. Bernie has done more good already than any president in my lifetime. Even if he hasn’t made massive policy change, he made a few generations become sentient and numbers are what we need.
