An Old, Old Tactic By the GOP
Except for trumpās obvious age and increasing dementia, since Biden withdrew from the race a nomineeās age (and mental clarity) has become irrelevant (though, it should not). During this period of indecision by Party strategists on how to campaign against Kamala Harris, trump, in his own way, has taken a page from a long-standing Republican blueprint. He is attacking Harris for being bi-racial. Such attacks are certain to impress his devoted followers.
Looking back at the GOPās history, the Partyās Southern Strategy was developed in the 1960s and relied on conservatives' innate racial and ethnic hatreds. Since then, the Republican Party has nurtured and exploited right-wingersā proclivity for racism, bigotry, homophobia, xenophobia, misogyny, etc. Beginning in 2015, trump deftly took the Republicansā own Southern Strategy to levels unseen before.
āMedia Matters for America writer Eric Kleefeld wrote: āThe Republican Party is now officially running on a campaign that you canāt trust biracial people.āā Kleefeld must be very young if he believes this is something new for the GOP.

Speaking of āold tricksā.....it was really strange how the deep state disappeared there for about 6 weeks when the blob was winning court cases. Its apparently back now that heās behind in some polls.
Itās also strange how the kooks on the right are (or at least for the last few months) no longer talking about splitting the nation in two. If Harris pulls out a victory..expect that to start back up immediately.
Obama as president caused many on the right to lose their sanity. If Harris wins, we may see a Jonestown type of episode with many of them. Buy stock in Kool Aid.
