  • From the article:

    Campaign spokesperson Ammar Moussa said Trump was “throwing tantrums online and today at his country club for the media” because he wasn’t getting the attention he craves.

    “The self-obsessed, convicted felon is incensed he’s not in the spotlight as Vice President Harris and Governor Walz barnstorm the nation talking about their vision for an America of opportunity and security — where freedom and democracy are protected and everyone has a fair shot not just to get by, but to get ahead,” he said.

    “Trump has no vision, he has no solutions, and he is running a campaign of revenge and retribution to enact his Project 2025 agenda and make people’s lives worse. It’s why voters will reject him again at the ballot box this November.”

    Moussa with the beatdown 😬

    This after the Harris campaign called Trump “the most insecure man in America.”

    That’s gotta sting just a bit.










  • Bias much?

    The fellow quoted in the article works for the Cato Institute.

    According to Wikipedia: “ Cato scholars have consistently called for the privatization of many government services and institutions,[68] including NASA,[69] Social Security,[70] the United States Postal Service,[71] the Transportation Security Administration,[72] public schooling, public transportation systems,[73][74] and public broadcasting.[75] The institute opposes minimum wage laws, saying that they violate the freedom of contract and thus private property rights, and increase unemployment.[76][77] It is opposed to expanding overtime regulations, arguing that it will benefit some employees in the short term, while costing jobs or lowering wages of others, and have no meaningful long-term impact.[78][79] It opposes child labor prohibitions,[80][81][82] opposes public sector unions, and supports right-to-work laws.[83][84] It opposes universal health care, arguing that it is harmful to patients and an intrusion onto individual liberty.[85][86] It is against affirmative action.[87] It has also called for total abolition of the welfare state, and has argued that it should be replaced with reduced business regulations to create more jobs, and argues that private charities are fully capable of replacing it.[88][89] Cato has also opposed antitrust laws.[90][91]

    Cato is an opponent of campaign finance reform, arguing that government is the ultimate form of potential corruption and that such laws undermine democracy by undermining competitive elections. Cato also supports the repeal of the Federal Election Campaign Act.[92][93]”

    TLDR: The Cato Institute is an American libertarian think tank headquartered in Washington, D.C. It was founded in 1977 by Ed Crane, Murray Rothbard, and Charles Koch,[6] chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Koch Industries..
