This would destroy Trump.

A statement by all living presidents, Biden, Obama, Clinton, Carter, W Bush, supporting Harris. Perhaps include living former VPs, Quayle, Gore, Cheney, Pence. Ideally, this should be a live event to maximize coverage, also with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. This would be historic. This news would reverberate around the world to get through to enough knuckleheads to destroy Trump.

"Americans Against MAGA" zoom fundraiser, and invite ALL those people, and lots more, to make statements.

No rational behavior by anyone at all means anything to these cultists.

It’d be like saying to the millions of Elvis fans in the late 1950’s that you have a signed letter by all the American symphony orchestra conductors and many popular music stars that they don’t approve of his style of music.

I'm just not sure how many registered Republicans are left who haven't been absorbed by the cult. But in a game of a thousand votes here or there, that could be a deciding difference. In my mind, it's all hands on deck, using everything at our disposal to ensure victory. And goddamn it, I mean everything.

Maybe some liquid courage would loosen up those thin lizard lips of his.

6. Would sole holdout Sarah Palin get "equal time"?

Since Palin couldn't get elected as dogcatcher in Alaska these days, a "prominent" MAGA voice to stem the purple tide might be quite effective. At making the tide even purpler!

14. Granted, but if it convinces even a few to sit this one out, it's worth it.

I'm not asking those few voters convinced by this to vote Harris. Just stay home. That's all I ask. In a race that's close only because a massive swath of Americans are fucking stupid, every incremental advantage is useful.

15. It would help if the elected Republicans in Congress would tell the world what they really think of Trump.

There's barely a spine among them. I know many are dyed in the wool cult members, but we keep hearing about all kinds of things getting said away from the cameras that really should be heard by the general population.

17. To my knowledge, W and Quayle are the only two who haven't endorsed.

Well, Pence has said he cannot support Trump, so....

Anyway, an ad with all the endorsements, should they be forthcoming, would be great!
