She is a fraud, a phony, and a red herring. A vote for Trump will be a vote for a man, his own man, not a puppet. More importantly, it is a vote for policies which he has honestly stated.&#0160; &#0160;In stark contrast, Kamala is a stealth ideologue. She has not come clean, and cannot: she must deceive the easily-deceived electorate to have a chance of winning.&#0160;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">UPDATE (10\/14)&#0160;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/cortessteve\/status\/1845552288804258125?s=46\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Polls Against Kamal the Phony<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">I call leftist journalists, &#39;journos.&#39; It is a term of disapprobation, to put it mildly. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2024\/10\/13\/jd_vance_to_abc_news_do_you_even_hear_yourself_only_a_handful_of_apartment_buildings_were_taken_over_by_migrant_gangs.html\">Here<\/a> J.

But let&#39;s be fair and acknowledge the courage and commitment of journalists on both sides of the political divide who risk their lives to report on the unfolding horrors of our fallen world.&#0160; I am thinking in particular of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treyyingst.com\/\">Trey Yingst<\/a>.
