Trump and his allies had a plan for how to hit Harris. Then he opened his mouth.
Oh god, he doesn't know that Kamala Harris isn't Nikki Haley, does he?

Turkish Delight is a horror.
He was on that Blitz Rationing.
Like Turkish Delight is fine, but it isn't "get your siblings murdered by a witch" good. But I suppose if you've been cut off from your home country's empire's only source of flavor for a year and a half, your judgement may be clouded a bit.

Donald Trump amends CBS lawsuit to claim ‘60 Minutes’ Kamala Harris interview unfairly diverted viewers from his Truth Social platform
He won the election and got exactly what he wanted and he's still mad as hell about it.

DHS secretary calls social media rhetoric following UnitedHealthcare CEO killing "extraordinarily alarming"
The social media rhetoric is a response to the material conditions. If people weren't regularly pushed to bankruptcy or left to die by the "Delay Deny Defend" industry, they wouldn't have any malice towards the industry's leaders.

My man, there was room for hard-right current Republicans Liz Cheney and Dick Cheney. You know what their support brought to the ticket last November? Two votes in Wyoming.
