Donald J. Trump’s allies want him to talk about the issues

His entire political campaign strategy has been about attacking his opponent personally. He did it with Hillary in 2016, With Biden in 2020, and again with Biden in 2024. He tried to do the same with Harris, but he hasn't found something that sticks yet and that's causing a lot of problems.

This is what you get when you promote a guy who can't do anything but insult people, even if he will agree to sign anything for anyone that says "You're doing a good job, champ"

Not only is he not getting anything to stick but he’s completely unprepared to deal with Harris or Walz clapping back.

It's crazy that it took the Democratic Party eight years to realize that clapping back was a thing they could do, but it's nice that they've finally figured it out.
