It's hard to believe that it has not even been a week since Joe dropped out and endorsed Kamala.

Bringing with it the incredible sense of hope, enthusiasm, and joy she has brought to Democrats because frankly I had been resigned to voting for Biden with the expectation that Trump would win and the nation my family had been in for nearly 400 years ( drop in the bucket compared to our First Nations) would become a dictatorship.

We must vote and support Kamala in even the deepest blue of Blue states. Trump must not just lose but suffer a humiliation beating in this election, one that I hope will bring Democrats control of the House and Senate and give the free world a sigh of relief.

Why do I say that? Trump has had 3 1/2 years of campaigning and lame-stream fawning over him, plus media lies in RW 24-7. Kamala has had 3 1/2 days when they claim the poll was taken.

3 1/2 days do not equal 3 1/2 years. Just trying to introduce some perspective into that NYT "pull".

But I think the reset we just did is a game changer, and despite my trepidations, I do have hope that we will push back the fascists at the gate.

Means Kamala Harris is doing things right. Take the fight directly to MAGA World, expose and pound the ugliness that is Trump and Project 2025 and do it as a Happy Warrior filled with energy and conviction. Because:

We. Won't. Go. Back.

Repetition is a thing of beauty.
