She appears to hate Trump, and that's all that matters to many. Unclear whether Trump hate will be a sufficiently effective strategy this go around, but it appears to be the (D)s closing argument.

Cheney campaigning for Harris and speaking of the danger of Trump gives permission to mainstream Republicans that do not care for MAGA and dislike Trump to vote for Harris rather than being obligated to vote for a dangerous fool just because he has an R after his name on the ballot. You guys are Trump loving MAGA so you don't realize the formerly traditional Republicans that cannot bring themselves to vote for him due to his anti-democratic tendencies.
Liz Cheney and the Long History of Anti-Indian Racism
Wyoming gets one representative in Congress, and apparently Liz Cheney is the best the state’s hard Republican majority could find. The daughter of the man who lied the United States into its…

Let’s see what they thought of Cheney before she joined team Harris/Walz.
The Dems would support anyone if they go against Trump.
But who thinks anyone cares about a disgruntled never-Trump former congresswoman from a state with a tiny population? If not for her last name, no one would even know who she is.

Talk about hitching your campaign wagon to a loser (from Wikipedia):

She couldn’t win the smallest state in the country, couldn’t come close. I can’t imagine Dems would support almost anything that she supported when she was in the GOP. Dems don’t have any positions they stick to, and they will take any endorsement. Is Diddy available for an endorsement from prison? They would take it.

This election will be contested for the rest of time. Whoever loses will say it was an illegitimate result.
It's a very poor argument, IMHO. Her wagon is hitched to the current administration. She says she wants to be president of everybody. Her policies haven't shown that. Her words of Nazis, Hitler, etc. do not indicate that. Frankly, if all you can do is go nasty against your opponent, you have nothing good to offer the electorate.
Agreed. But sadly much of the electorate just wants someone to hate. I heard some of her (Harris) remarks from yesterday. The tone of her delivery was like nails on a chalkboard to me. I never thought I'd dislike the aural aspect of listening to someone speak more than DJT, but I was wrong. Hopefully in less than week it will all be decided.

Harris has called Trump a fascist. She has not called him Hitler or a Nazi. Carry on.
She convicted him of praising Hitler, saying it was "deeply troubling". 90% of her campaign has been to bash Trump or march out others to bash Trump. I am guessing this is why many think she will lose.
Did you know she is from a middle class family?
Liz is about as popular as a head cold. But she hates Trump, so give her a microphone!
If she wins, I would anticipate a pretty big drop in the market. You will see lots of money shoveled offshore through legal loopholes.
I went heavy on oil when Biden won. That has worked very well. I currently have two companies domiciled in the T&Cs. It is hard to believe that some people really buy her wealthiest donors will pay more in taxes like she is claiming.
The fact that she is a Cheney, hardcore conservative name known to anyone that follows politics, and is stating that it is more important to save democracy by rejecting Trump, is what matters. Who cares that she was voted out by the MAGA Republicans in Wyoming? No one. What difference that she was viewed as the enemy by the Dems prior to her denouncing Trump. Alot of weak, off point attempts to minimize her positive effects on the trail. Hitching your campaign to a loser (laughing stock) is having Robert Kennedy Jr. appear on stage with you.
Cool, how many independents are voting Kamala as they just discovered Liz Cheney doesn't like Trump?
It is comical when MAGA complains about the behavior of other candidates. Trump is without a doubt the most mean-spirited person to ever run for office. Add in the constant lying and you have the complete package.
Jeff’s guy! “Trump is so divisive”
Jeff - loving his team of over 10 years

According to Jeff, both parties cheat the same. But only one party sued to keep non citizens on the voter rolls
Yes, I believe Democrats and Republicans are the same apart from politics. I don’t believe either party has a moral high ground.
Both parties believe that they are working for the good of the country. Obviously, you believe differently and I am good with that.
SCOTUS doesn't care about the Constitution, doesn't care about the express language of a statute, they are so hyper-partisan all they care about is helping Trump and the Repubs. Sad to see that they have peed away all credibility from one of a formerly great US institution.
Harris and her campaign have been more than happy to have their surrogates use those terms. You should note, I didn’t even mentioned Trump. His followers are garbage according to the guy you voted for. I see a neocon trying to justify his vote for Kackles.
Biden is a cognitively declining 81 year old man. I find it completely believable that he misspoke. He quickly clarified what he meant. I am perfectly comfortable with my vote.
No, closest she has come is when she compared the MSG rally to a 1939 pro Nazi rally,
Walz repeats Clinton attack that Trump Madison Square Garden event mirrored 1930s Nazi rally
Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Hillary Clinton compared former President Donald Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden to a 1939 Nazi rally.
It was Walz and Clinton not Harris.
At minimum she agreed he is a fascist

Fact check: Did Kamala Harris call Donald Trump 'Hitler'?
Donald Trump has accused Kamala Harris of calling him Adolf Hitler in posts on Truth Social and X.
www.newsweek.com
He has a history of making verbal gaffes; it seems a reasonable explanation. Believe what you want.
Maybe to those extreme progressives, but that few number are so far on the extreme fringe they are the few voting for Stein, or Kennedy (yes still some) or the other two candidates. To the great majority of Dems including progressives, she is considered a hero--the enemy of my enemy...

Meh...The Rs are not running on "your candidate is a jerk".
When you take the moral high ground, but behave a fool in that arena, others might point it out.
FYI. My wife and I dropped off our mail-in ballots yesterday because we felt it safer than trusting the post office process. The local church was also open for early voting. (Maricopa County)
Wow, HUGE bin of dropped off mail-in ballots and steady stream of early voters. I don't have a reference for prior years but impressed how much activity there was one week prior to the election on a Tuesday afternoon. Will be interested to see the final voter turnout numbers.
BTW I think the pollsters are changing AZ to leaning Republican. If so, pretty big deal for Trump but he needs several more swing states to win.
