My guess with the new Kamala motif is they settled on putting out a style that mimics aesthetics of local Green Party candidates and good government people running as independents in Democrat cities.

Make it feel grassroots city council style.

Absolutely no DSA commie red elements.


Interesting since this a rejection of the Obama approach where they cram as much nostalgia into the design as possible.

Man it really has been a wild month hasn’t it. It feels like this election has gone on forever and we’re near the end with the amount of content, but we haven’t even seen the DNC, let alone the parade of horrors that September and October promise.

Within hours of landing in Tel Aviv this past January, some new friends and I were wandering in a jet-lagged daze through a street market when we ran into an alumnus of the Taglit-Birthright program that had brought us, roughly 40 queer Jews, to Israel for a free 10-day vacation. “So,” he asked, “how are you guys enjoying faglit?”

Faglit! That was the word we’d been looking for. A blend of reclaimed hate speech and the Hebrew word for “discovery,” it was much catchier than gayright and rainbow trip, the terms we’d been throwing around—and also more deliciously transgressive.

if you hang out with Jewish Millennials, you’ve probably heard of Taglit-Birthright, established by philanthropists and the Israeli government in 1999 to bring young-adult members of the Jewish diaspora to the Holy Land. The junket is commonly, and rightly, considered a recruiting device to get Americans to make aliyah (move to Israel), or at least to stick up for the country in political arguments, and maybe even to find a nice Jewish spouse.

My question surrounding the polls this cycle is if the phenomena of the "shy Trump voter", those who were afraid to admit to pollsters that they were voting for Trump or avoided pollsters altogether, are going to be a factor again or if they even still exist in large numbers. I remember that excuse being used when everyone was trying to explain why they were so radically wrong in 2016 and why 2020 was closer than people thought it would be.

I see all these posts on X and talking heads in conservative media proclaiming that it's no longer taboo to publicly support Trump. I agree that there's something to that, but I don't know whether or not it's enough of a factor to say that the polls are going to be more accurate this time around.

I think we’ll still see “shy Trump voters” like the media suggests but it doesn’t have anything to do with actual shyness.

Many Trump voters rightly suspect the democrats are cheaters and will try to use polling data to front load fraudulent ballots into the system. There is zero reason to cooperate with cheaters and make their cheating easier. It increases the odds of them cheating too much and getting caught red-handed or not cheating enough and losing anyway.

Non threatening goober dad joke aesthetic.

We'll learn in tell all books later or Bari Weiss articles whats going on inside the campaign but I'm picking up a vibe of a deliberate cutting down of polish and professionalism with the style.

This choice connects with the need to kill the Doomerism. Less corporate, less threatening, less DNC manufactured.

IDK I think it's a good choice strategically.
