Independent of the campaign there’s also a bluesky mirror someone set up but it doesn’t have video mirrored. I know bluesky has only just recently started rolling out video support, however
In the presidental debate, Harris laid traps such as a short mention about his crowd sizes to get him to rant about that instead of anything else. Trump with his insecurities, fell right for it and did terrible at the debate.
Now Trump is trying to claim that didn’t happen for the same reasons he fell for her traps in the first place
Also as a note in general:
As far as I can tell kamalahq account posts the same twitter posts to their threads account. So you can avoid going to twitter by just looking for the exact same post on threads
Crowd sizes for one thing
Reading through this, I’m not exactly sure what the call to action was? If people do want a call to action, here’s my suggestions:
Find opportunities to volunteer for dems around you and online
Write letters to voters in swing states and close downballot races to increase turnout
The bigger point is media attention to bring his dodge of a 2nd debate back into memory. Telling it ahead of time gives you twice the coverage on it: news that you’re going to do it and coverage after the fact once you have done it
Plus you’ll get more people filming and looking out for the plane too
To save some people a click
The Harris campaign has arranged to have a small plane fly over Tuscaloosa during the game with a banner declaring, “Trump’s Punting on 2nd Debate.”

The Harris campaign will also air a national ad during one of the most highly anticipated games of college football where she calls on the former president to meet her on the debate stage one more time.
“Winners never back down from a challenge,” the ad’s narrator says. “Champions know it’s any time, any place. But losers, they whine and waffle and take their ball home.”
For anyone interested in supporting those going up against the meat lobby, look into the Agriculture Fairness Aliance
Turn that into action! Volunteering is great to do as well
In fairness sometimes small tiny differences like that do turn out to be significant. But measurement error usually wins out most of the time
Help make sure the majority against it shows up at the polls
I’m not so sure it necessarily does that. I think sometimes people dooming about polls makes them think “what’s the point” and demotivates action
Certainly complacency is bad too though of course
And I still see people dooming about Rasmussen polls despite the fact that they’ve been booted from most polling agragates a while ago because of their terrible methodology and terrible transparency
FYI, you can still volunteer and donate to campaigns and such from other states. Republicans sure as hell do
There is quite a bit of time between election and inauguration. Election is early November, inauguration is in early January
Even if dems win the senate it doesn’t mean they’ll necessarily replace 100% of everyone either. Just opens the options to replace some people. I’m sure the cabinet members would be informed of how likely they are to keep their job
Note that a good chunk of the poll, people selected neutral which may very well still be a “I don’t know much about this”. Familiar can also mean “I have heard the name before”
This is if dems lose the senate control. New cabinet members have to be approved by the senate
So by keeping old cabinet members, you avoid having to go through the senate again and being blocked by republicans
For anyone who has a bit of time, I highly encourage volunteering for the campaign. Many of the methods of volunteering are about educating voters
Find opportunities to volunteer for dems around you
EDIT: looks like you might not be in the US, but still recommend volunteering for progressive parties around you if you can
He cannot let it go. I mean recently when he noticed people leaving his rally he felt the need to claim that they were not really leaving his rally
Which was promptly met with people posting videos of them leaving the actual building too while you can hear trump speaking in the background
