Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy warned former President Donald Trump regarding his social media posts about Vice President Kamala Harris not receiving large crowds, saying he should instead focus his criticism on her backtracking on numerous policies.

Trump wrote on Truth Social that Harris had been using artificial intelligence to make it appear that a large crowd was waiting for her plane to land, writing that “she had NOBODY waiting” and that using AI should count as election interference. McCarthy said this was not an effective way to campaign against Harris, suggesting he should criticize her history as a politician.

“Stop questioning the size of her crowds, and start questioning her position when it comes to what she did as attorney general on crime,” McCarthy said on Fox News’s America’s Newsroom. “Question what did she do when she was supposed to take care of the border as a czar. Question that they brought inflation, and she was the tiebreaking vote when it came to inflation, when it came to IRS agents.”

McCarthy added that Harris is a “perfect” candidate for Trump to run against, arguing she has “the biggest flip-flop” on policies, such as changing her opposition to fracking and her desire to secure the border.

“So don’t sit back. Get out there and start making the case and use her own words to do it to her,” McCarthy said.

Certainly Harris' campaign knows how to push Trump's buttons and if he continues to let her goad him he's going to lose.  As much as I don't like McCarthy he is correct.

Maybe someone should volunteer to keep Briefers up-to-date on what both Trump and JD are doing AND actually saying.  Without it, folks around here will likely remain unaware and in danger of blissfully lapping up nonsense ---- allowing the democrats to define for us what is important and what is true; gaslighting us all the way through their next steal.

He or she could start with reporting on JD's extraordinary talk show Sunday and move on to highlights from Trump's two hour rally speech ----- beyond the cherry-picked headlines that have already been repeated.  Highlighting just policy clips from the rally would keep the poster busy 

Reading the majority of comments of late, the lack of actual information on the Trump campaign is surprising.  Maybe the powers that be could discuss if it's worth changing this.

Just a thought

Trump is the one who gives the Democrats that power.  He is constantly handing them soundbites that make it easy to distract people from whatever underlying point he is trying to make.  If he was a more disciplined speaker, that wouldn't be happening nearly as much.

He's his own worst enemy in that regard.
