Turns out the "fascist" accusations aren't working

An article states that a Democratic PAC seems to have soured on the Harris campaign's use of calling Trump a "fascist":

Future Forward, the leading pro-Harris Super political action committee (PAC), said in an email circulated to Democrats that its internal testing showed attacks on the Republican’s character were “not that persuasive”, The New York Times reports.

The problem for Dems is that if they want to smear him in the future, they'll have to resort to an even wilder, scarier attack. But what can be worst than calling a politician a "fascist"? The Dems are going to have to escalate their rhetoric even more, which is the scary part of all of this.

It didn't work because it was unsubtle, ridiculous, and reeked of last-minute desperation.

Truly pathetic, vile behavior from the Kamala campaign - which is to be expected.

The accusations aren't necessary.

It's obvious what Trump is and what's become of the Republican party.

Trump has helped the Republican Party become the party of the people rather than the elitists who want to push woke values on us or start wars in foreign lands.

A week to go and they're getting so desperate it's about all they've got. Mike Obama is trying to pull the women (esp. black) are the future leaders so better start now and before the week is out it's guaranteed they'll be playing the race card something fierce. They have nothing left.

I hope they keep Trump safe!

When you use the same insults for a long time, they eventually lose their power and become meaningless, particularly if they aren't even true.

Yeah, I think enough people have woken up to that reality, which is why the MSM/Democratic narrative is no longer working like it used to. However, when scaremongering words no longer have force, violence might be the next step taken. Let's hope cooler heads prevail, and Trump is protected, but the increasingly heated rhetoric isn't helping.

Don't worry. We all know the Dem's tricks now, so they're not gonna be able to try them again without getting blocked or sabotaged somehow.

They will find new tricks.

Sad, but true, but that's how the game is played.

Then why does Trump constantly compare himself to Hitler? Lmfao

[–] liscarkat (18367) 25 days ago

He does no such thing, except to say he's not a nazi and not like Hitler.

[–] AnthonySocksss (447) 25 days ago

He says the exact opposite lmao

Modern dems are like the kids on the playground that would throw a tantrum and leave with the ball if they lost a game.

Kind of like being called a racist. Fascist doesn't bite anymore. Same with words like "snowflake"

Everybody has heard these words so many times over the past few years they don't care anymore.
