Vice President Harris’s campaign posted most of Tuesday’s debate on the social platform X, referring to it as a new ad.

“Our newest ad just dropped,” the campaign captioned its Wednesday video post.

After Harris’s closing statement in the debate hosted by ABC News, the video is cut off to omit Trump’s closing statement, and a photo of the vice president pops up featuring a voiceover in which she says “I approve this message.”

Harris was seen by many as having a good debate Tuesday night, a reversal of fortunes for Democrats compared to President Biden’s negatively-received performance in June. Sixty-three percent of registered voters in a CNN flash poll said the vice president performed better on the debate stage, while about 37 percent said the same about Trump.

Which, let's also be clear; they are not involved in any way.

Sure but that's why the message is being sold. The right wing is a post truth political movement. They are the alpha wave of the next global fascism movement.

Seeing the number of legal migrants who support Trump reminds me of the German Jews who supported the rise of Hitler.

It feels like a necessary step.

The genocide this movement is pushing for will not care about legal immigration status.

We're past the echo phase. We're deep into the, "I replaced Jew with Immigrant" phase.
