    Yeah and now the attack line against Walz is "stolen valor"...that since he retired before his unit went to Iraq that it somehow equates to stolen valor...not sure how.

    Walz had previously been hit with that attack and he stated that he retired to run for Congress. 

    This may help. There are images of the documents on multiple posts. Seems like any attempts at swift-boating him will not succeed.

    Stolen Valor @StolenValor1
    I received a partial follow up on the NGB22. After the NGB22 was issued, he was “Administratively” reduced for not completing the required educational requirements
    So he did hold the rank of CSM, but was subsequently reduced for this reason and receives retired pay for the rank of MSG. There were no disciplinary reasons for the reduction. 
    According to the PAO for the Minnesota National Guard, they said it is legitimate for Walz to say he served as a CSM. They said the rank changed because Walz retired before completing coursework at the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy along with other requirements associated with his promotion.
    As far as deployments, I am awaiting more records but it doesn’t seem he deployed to a combat zone during his service. Will follow up when I have more information.

    good source...that guy also said that he hasn't seen Walz ever refer to being "in combat" so this is probably just the insult of the day and will go away as it doesn't gain traction
    you underestimate the misinformation capabilities of the right. he will be considered an anti-military lying coward by the end of the week. 
    well yeah...they are also still pushing his old DUI charge as him fleeing the police at 100mph at "twice the legal limit"...

    Let's see: a DUI thirty years ago, vs. 34 felony convictions, adjudicated sex offender, business fraud, tax fraud, multiple dozens of additional indictments... yeah, those are about equivalent.
    R's are so far better at messaging, it will actually seem worse. 
    I disagree. They're terrible at messaging, but great at fear mongering. The nonsensical attack ads only play to the base. I was recently in Georgia and the amount of attacks ads against Harris were ridiculous. It was at least 2 to every 1 Harris ad. In contrast, the Harris ads talked about what she would do for the country and people if elected. The Rs continue to have no plans or policies to speak to. It's ridiculous. 
    It's a hopeless situation...

    When the far right uses the word "radical" they are simply exhibiting ignorance.  I never pay any attention to that nonsense.  Come back with me to the 60s and 70s and I'll show you radical.  And even then, half the time it was misunderstood.

    Clearly POOTWH’s memory and mental capacity is greatly reduced and he’s unfit to be POTUS. He really should withdraw from the race for the good of the repub party and nation.

    Important for Trump to get out and campaign for those 3 EC votes in a state that has voted Republican in every election except 1 since 1968.

    Sound strategy, his campaign manager deserves a raise.
    He is doing the bare minimum. 

    pretty soon people are going to be wondering where all the campaign money went, because he isn't spending it on actually campaigning.

    The GOP could pull a Dem move and dump Trump in favor of Vance. But since Vance is such a sniveling toady of a tool, they know it's a bad idea.

    Read one op-ed that suggested trump isn’t worried about winning… he’s just going to say he won, and people will believe it.

    Plenty of people will. But this time they're in a tougher position for a coup than last time when he was already the president.

    There were times in 2016 when I thought he was trying to lose but I think he's too insecure to accept losing or to not want to win. He's fragile and self involved. There's no way he's not obsessed with winning...though he's not obsessed with the act of being president. He'll leave that up to the boot lickers. (Now I'm just thinking about how laughable it is that the base thinks he works 18-hour days without thought for himself due to his super-human love of his country. It's kinda funny but mostly frightening.)

    I don't know -- they haven't been too troubled over throwing away their money thus far, why start now?

    The very stable genius now wants to stop taxation on social security payments.
    Ummm..  the shit is already going to run out soon, now you save the people a few bucks a year and leave them with nothing, sooner.
    Assholery.

    What kind of moron would think it’s a good idea to tax Social Security?

    You should be non-stop posting about the brilliance of it all.  So much winning.
