Ex-Trump Official's Warning About Donald's 'Worst Instincts'
Former President Donald Trump's "worst instincts" are leading his supporters to a "very, very dark place," according to former Trump administration official Elizabeth Neumann.
Neumann, who served in multiple high-level roles at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) during Trump's presidency, is one of several former Trump officials who have recently been issuing warnings about the Republican candidate as he seeks to return to the White House by defeating Vice President Kamala Harris in November.
Neumann told MSNBC host Katy Tur in an interview on Friday that she believes Trump supporters are giving him an unwarranted "pass" and dismissing authoritarian remarks that should be taken seriously while adding that the way the ex-president behaves "behind closed doors" would "frighten" most Americans.
"You need to take what he says seriously," Neumann said. "When he says he wants to be 'a dictator on day one,' he actually means that. He kind of says it in a joking way; he says it in a way that allows people to give him a pass. Do not give him a pass."
"In closed doors, his worst instincts would frighten the average American," she added. "He has no humanity, no decency, no respect...instead, [he] is just willing to toss people aside to achieve his aims. He is very dangerous, indeed."
Neumann said that Trump's potential return to power is "posing a threat" to freedom and the "American way of life," arguing that the election is less about policy differences than it is about choosing a candidate fit for office.
"It's about whether we put someone into office who has the character and the competence to take that oath of office," said Neumann. "He doesn't care about the Constitution. He doesn't care about upholding the rule of law. They are just constraints to him that he is more than happy to shrug off, kick off."
"[Trump is] very delighted, in fact, to mete out the worst instincts that we have seen in history when we put people with those authoritarian tendencies into positions of power," she said. "It leads to violence, it leads to destruction, and it certainly leads to a loss of freedom.
Newsweek reached out to the Trump campaign via email for comment on Friday evening.

Lindsey Graham Issues Dumbest Warning About a Potential Trump Loss
The Republican senator thinks that if Kamala Harris beats Donald Trump, it will spark a terrorist attack.
The South Carolina Republican argued that Vice President Kamala Harris’s border policies would cause another 9/11 along the border. But Lindsey Graham got everything he wanted in a border policy until . . .
A $118 billion bipartisan border deal was moments from coming to fruition earlier this year, before Republicans willingly tanked it in order to hand Trump fodder for his 2024 campaign.
And run on the issue Trump has.

With the 2024 election already upon us, many people have heard that Donald Trump and JD Vance plan to deport millions of undocumented immigrants if they are elected in November, but what does this really mean and look like? Allan Lichtman discusses.

I Stared Into the Purest Form of Trump Worship in America. It Was Even Weirder Than Expected.
By Dan Kois
https://slate.com/business/2024/10/donald-trump-news-election-merchand
ise-store.html
On rural highways, in small resort towns like Lake George, and even in the tourist mecca of Gatlinburg, Tennessee, Trump Shit stores sell T-shirts, hats, stickers, beer koozies, and Croc Jibbitz featuring the once and maybe-future president’s likeness. They seem to spring from the earth fully formed, their T-shirts reading I’M VOTING FOR THE FELON waving in the breeze. There’s no central organization representing these grassroots retail establishments, and no count of how many there are. But they are an undeniable micro-economy that has now thrived for nearly a decade — and they hope to for, say, at least four more years.
The Trump Shit store is ground zero for the fervent loyalty Trump inspires in his subjects. So when I heard that in this modest vacation destination, three separate storefronts on Canada Street now feature unhinged Trump products under the brand name “Dilligaf,” I needed to understand: Who is shopping at these stores? What draws them there? And who is making, and selling, all this Trump shit?

And in doing so, Trump has done more for America in the last 2 months than he did in the last 8 years. Looking very much forward to his second belated term.

Looks like there will be two Senate pickups for the GOP and for the first time since August 6th the generic ballot for the House is in favor of Republicans by +0.5.
Harris slipped to a +0.1 lead in the national popular vote polling today, which means if you factored in the 2020 polling bias Trump wins the popular vote by +3.7 points.
Trump has lead Harris all week in every battleground state. When you factor in the 2020 polling biases, he wins every battleground state with anywhere between +2.7 to +7.5 of the vote in those states.
I thought that I should note that I missed the period in time earlier today that the national Popular Vote aggregate at RCP was a Tie. By the time I'd gotten to it, it had already shifted up to +0.1 for Harris, which was still a drop from yesterday.
If you go into this election anything close to a tie, you lose. Bigly.
Unless Harris can rise AT LEAST back to her all-time high of +2.2 by November 4th, this election is over. Even if she magically pulls that off, I'd only give her a 10% chance of winning. We don't get to coinflip territory until she's leading by roughly +4.2
It doesn't matter that I slept through the tie yesterday.
Trump just took the lead in the national popular vote aggregate by +0.1. With the exception of a small 0.1 bump here or 0.2 there in between, that's basically a direct and quick fall of 2.3 points in 21 days. 4 of the last 5 polls to come out (NYT, CNN, TIPP and Emerson all call the popular vote race a tie. The fifth poll (WSJ) has Trump up +3.
If you go into election season losing the popular vote to Trump, you're going to get crushed in the electoral college.

What Lictman should be talking about is why he trashed his rating system.
I don't think it should belong in his hands anymore. The Keys system is great, but he did not properly attribute those keys in this crazy election season. He shouldn't have made his prediction until today.
Now he's busy doing a tour defending his horrible pick this year.

Kornacki: Harris No Longer More Popular Than Trump In New CNBC, NBC Polls

Quote:
NBC elections analyst Steve Kornacki runs down the results of a new CNBC poll giving Donald Trump a 48-46 lead over Kamala Harris nationally, and Harris a negative ten popularity rating, 10 days before the 2024 election.
You guys are fuckin' dead. The ONLY thing Harris had going for her was her fake media-driven likability.
You ran out of gas.
Too bad the DNC convention wasn't last week, huh?
