I don’t think the average voter who is even considering voting for him views the Stormy Daniels or classified documents cases as things. Everyone saw January 6th with their own eyes and I doubt court cases there will move the dial either any more than witnessing it on television at the time.

It’s certainly possible I’ll have no, or limited, criticism of Harris at all. Certainly not her ability to do the job as I had with Biden. Her policies are certainly going to be less objectionable than the Repulican ticket. Where the campaign mis-steps it might be worthy of comment but I’m certainly rooting for her. It’s an uphill task that will require laser focus on the issues that matter, those that will move the dial, and it shouldn’t get distracted by those that don’t/won’t.

Her first step, intentionally or otherwise, seems to be snubbing Netanyahu by not chairing the joint session of Congress. That’s a win for me.
