I know several Democrats in PA who received that AllVotes text. They reached out to me about it, actually. They followed it up with an apology. That said I know nothing about the organization.

My wife and I got them. The apology text came out a few hours later. Here's my response

The Trump campaign has WON its lawsuit in Pennsylvania against Bucks County after they shut off voting lines early yesterday.

The only lawsuits from Harris are to keep non-citizens on the voter rolls and to keep the border open. Harris is a danger to our Republic. With each passing day, more Americans can witness it.

When will you be replaced?

If you don't care that MAGA is a Nazi-style movement, the only thing you have to know about this race is that Trump's plans will destroy the economy (20% sales tax "tariff" and crippling deportations) while Harris' will improve it (attacking price gouging, build new housing).

How is an import tariff a sales tax? It is a tariff on imports, not on sales to US buyers. Supply and demand determines when a buyer will stop buying and most companies were able to absorb the tariffs or the Chinese found ways to get around it. Take a look at the De minimis import rules. They simply made less profit. Not true in all cases of course but most US consumers are completely ignorant of how the Chinese evade enforcement of trade, energy, and labor rules.

KInd of like the minimum wage argument...competition drives prices, not paying workers a livable wage

They won't just take less profit, though. At least some of those extra costs will get passed to the consumer.

Try looking in the dictionary. Nevermind, I know you can't be bothered. Also in his first term he recklessly slapped tariffs on all kinds of things from countries that are our allies. It's a tax used to fund his billionaire tax cuts. If you're not a billionaire you're gonna get hosed.

A tariff is a tax imposed by a government on goods or services that are imported or exported between countries. Tariffs are also known as customs duties.

I'm done with this person - just trolling against obvious and incontrovertible evidence that's presented to him.

I found this from WSJ to explain things pretty well and why many don't agree with tariffs.

I did not say it wasn't a tax. It is. Duties are one of the first  taxes imposed by our country. I said how is it a sales tax? Read carefully. I do know what I am talking about when it comes to tariffs. I am a trade lawyer. I may or may not not support his position, but
his application of tariffs was far from reckless and it has withstood judicial scrutiny. Perhaps one of the most aggressive presidential trade moves, but well counseled and very intentionally executed.

POOTWH’s got the bikers but Kamala’s got The Terminator! Still undecided?

Arnold Schwarzenegger says he’ll reluctantly vote for Kamala Harris

The actor and former Republican governor of California said on X that he will vote for the Democratic ticket despite disagreeing with many of Harris’s policies.

He’s glued to it and at the same - of course - talking about how kamala needs one. 

The projection is so absurdly transparent

Do you trust Trump about the sound of wind mills causing cancer?

Never really thought about it to be honest. Wind farms are not common where I live. I do not know enough about the disposal of obsolete materials to make an informed decision. But it did make me wonder when my 30 year old solar panels and the copper piping were removed from my house. Where does that all go and are they recyclable?
