Some advice for Ms. Harris

1. Tell your followers to get out their flags. There is no good reason a flag should mean we should vote for a fraud rapist felon; instead a flag should mean that hard-working Americans all have the opportunity to serve our country and vote for the best people. Our votes should all count, not just the ones he wants to count.
2. Keep talking about the weather. Their stand is that it's all part of a natural cycle. No, climate change is a threat. We're losing much of Florida and the East Coast. California and the west are burning up. This is not a natural cycle. It's a reason alone to make sure to keep the orange felon out. 3. Go heavy on the law. You don't have to say that you're a prosecutor and he's a felon; we can see that. You don't even have to say that juries in several places, not controlled by Biden, have found him guilty repeatedly. Just say we believe in the legal system, and the right to a fair trial, a trial by an honest jury chosen by lawyers of both sides, etc. We also believe in fair elections counted by impartial people who we then trust without casting aspersions on their motives as if that last election was fixed. The idea that that last election was fixed was bullshit. Make respect for women the foundation of your campaign. You don't have to mention that he was guilty of assaulting one, and probably assaulted lots more, and was guilty (imo) of paedophilia, etc. Bring back "Grab 'em in the p----" since we all know he said that and meant it, and that's enough. If "politically incorrect" meand "grabbing them in the p----" then we should all jost go the other direction for our own sake.

I'd say, from the ground, things are looking good. I have friends who would never have voted for Biden, yet they'll get out for Harris. Thousands of young people will be mobilized. We have a model, Obama, who was good at this. The number of people circling their wagons around the orange felon is getting smaller all the time. Your last job is to 1) show us a sense of humor, 2) connect with old duffers like me, and 3) never look weak or indecisive.
