Harris, Democrats Still Call Trump, Vance ‘Weirdos’: Here’s Why

Vice President Kamala Harris and her Democratic allies are highlighting a brand new line of criticism of Republicans — calling Donald Trump and his vice presidential candidate, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, “weird.”
Democrats have been quick to make use of the label in interviews and online, especially within the context of Vance’s comments on abortion and his earlier suggestion that political leaders who wouldn’t have biological children “don’t really have a direct stake” within the country.
The “weird” message clearly gave Democrats a narrative advantage they rarely had when President Joe Biden was still in search of reelection. The Trump campaign, which so often shapes political conversations with the previous president’s statements, spent days attempting to flip the script, highlighting things about Democrats that it says are weird.
“I don’t know who came up with that idea, but I give credit to them,” said David Karpf, a professor of strategic communications at George Washington University.
Karpf said that calling Republicans’ comments “weird” is the type of succinct take that resonates quickly with Harris supporters. Furthermore, Karpf noted, “it frustrates opponents, which leads them to further amplify it with unbalanced responses.”
“Trump-Vance has not been able to find an effective response so far,” Karpf said.
Harris and her allies have used this label steadily
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, a Democrat who’s on Harris’ shortlist for vice chairman, called Trump and Vance “just plain weird” in an interview with MSNBC last week, a comment the Democratic Governors Association — of which Walz is chairman — amplified in a post on X. Walz repeated that characterization on CNN Sunday, referencing Trump’s repeated mentions of fictional serial killer Hannibal Lecter from the film “The Silence of the Lambs” in campaign speeches.
In response to Trump’s appearance on Fox News on Thursday, the Harris campaign — in a press release titled “Statement on 78-Year-Old Felon’s Appearance on Fox News” — included “Trump Is Old and Kind of Weird?” in a listing of bullet points.
A day later, multiple Harris campaign press releases described her opponents in similar terms, simply stating that “J.D. Vance is weird,” partially due to his stance on abortion, and a Harris campaign spokesperson stated that Vance “has spent all week in the headlines because of his out-of-touch, weird ideas.”
Two Harris allies, Senators Brian Schatz of Hawaii and Chris Murphy of Connecticut, posted a video on X on Friday calling Vance’s earlier comments about limiting the political power of childless Americans a “super weird idea.”
And then, at her first fundraiser since becoming the presumptive Democratic vice presidential nominee, Harris used that characterization herself, calling attention to a few of Trump’s “wild lies about my record and what he and his running mate the vice president are saying is just weird.”
“I mean, this is the box you put it in, right?” she added.
Featured Stories
Many of the Democrats’ comments appear to harken back to a 2021 interview with Vance during which he lambasted some outstanding Democrats who wouldn’t have biological children — including Harris — calling them “childless cat people” who don’t have any “direct stake” in America.
But Harris’ own characterization of Trump as “weird” may go even further. In his 2021 book, political reporter Edward-Isaac Dovere wrote that Harris reportedly met along with her aides in 2018 to organize for her own presidential campaign.
As staff tried to organize her for the way she would react if Trump loomed over her during a debate, as he did with Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton in 2016, Harris reportedly joked, “I would turn around and say, ‘Why are you acting so weird? What’s wrong with you?’”
The Trump campaign tried to show the tables
On Sunday, Trump spokesman Steven Cheung released a recording of Walz calling Trump and Vance “weird” while campaigning for Harris and saying the presumptive Democratic nominee and her supporters had crossed a line by “trying to make everyone believe the shooting was staged,” referring to the attempted bombing at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania.
Overall, some Trump allies are attempting to steer the conversation back to Harris and what they call her failed policy ideas.
Donald Trump Jr., the previous president’s eldest son, turned to X on Monday to ask, “You know what’s really weird? Soft-on-crime politicians like Kamala are letting illegal immigrants out of prison so they can brutally attack Americans.”
On Saturday, Vance reposted an X video shared by Trump Jr. during which Harris talks about “climate anxiety, which is fear of the future and not knowing whether it even makes sense to think about having children.”
“It’s almost like these people don’t want young people to have families or something,” Vance wrote. “Really weird stuff.”
Democrats Hijack Republican Attack Lines to Support Harris
Republicans have long shared clips of Harris laughing and a few of her jokes or stories to attempt to paint the vice chairman as a weird person — particularly an anecdote she told last 12 months about her mother scolding her: “Do you think you just fell out of a coconut tree?”
The “coconut tree” story itself became a Democratic joke in the times since Harris took over the campaign. Many of her supporters adopted coconut emojis on their online accounts.
Matt Sienkiewicz, a professor of social communications at Boston College, said calling Republicans “weird” could possibly be a solution to adapt Republicans’ current tactics.
University at Buffalo political communication professor Jacob Neiheisel compared the “bizarre” message to Arizona Sen. John McCain’s 2008 try and portray Barack Obama as a celeb with no accomplishments.
“I think at a functional level this may be part of a coordinated effort to mitigate some of the long-standing efforts by the right to portray Harris in a similar way,” Neiheisel said.

Trump is considering the deportation of convicted US citizens to Salvador

US citizens are in the agenda of President Donald Trump, because the administration is considering a proposal to deport convicted Americans in prisons in El Salvador.
“Then they are native, home. You have to build five more places,” said Trump to the president of Salvador, Nayibo Bukele, before the press briefing on Monday.
According to NPR, Trump’s statement referred to the concept imprisonment of convicted US citizens In the prison space abroad, the idea Bukele suggested that the El Salvador was prepared for conduct.
“Yes, we have a place,” he said.
The US prosecutor General Pam Bondi actively examines whether American deportations to other countries could be legally solid and economical. “We also have others with whom we negotiate,” said Trump. “If he is a home criminal, I have no problem. Now we are studying rights now – I am learning. If we can do it, that’s good.”
While Trump’s ally Elon Musk and other conservatives agree with the concept of detaining US citizens abroad, some lawyers consider that the concept is “unconstitutional” and “illegal”.
“There is no authorization to deport US citizens in any American law, and certainly not imprison them in a foreign country,” said David Bier from the Cato Institute. “Of course, the problem is (Trump) he has already illegally deported hundreds of people, simply not giving the courts the opportunity to stop him.”
In February, Senator Jon Ossoff (D-GA) called on administration Reject the ideas of the proposal In a letter addressed to the US Department of State.
“It would be a moral and legal parody of the US government to submit to every” conditions of life Salvadors prisons, Ossoff wrote, noting that they don’t provide adequate sanitary, temperature control and clean water.
According to February post, Bukele on X, in exchange for a “relatively low” fee, Salvador suggested that he would take convicted criminals from the US to his terrorism, mega-herpison situated in Tecoluc.
Trump’s answer: “I would do it in the blink of an eye.”
Salvador supposedly already lives a whole bunch of individuals who have been transported from the United States to a jail with maximum security in recent weeks due to legal status and belonging to the gang.
In the past, the United States contested legal and constitutional barriers, imprisoning about 80,000 Japanese during World War II. Although the American Civil Liberties Union claimed that “you can’t deport the US citizen, dot”, the spokeswoman for the White House indicated in the press briefing of April 8 that Trump fully considers this concept.

Chairman of the FCC under the fire for wearing Trump’s head on a high heel in Crerey Maga Cult Callback

There are golden heels for flaps, after which there are loyalty vows, which go as innocent golden heels.
The chairman of FCC, Brendan Carr, recently selected the last one – hitting the golden pink head of Donald Trump’s head into his jacket, as if he was interrogated by the Ministry of Maga Propaganda (and let’s not give Trump any ideas).
Carr posed for a camera in Congress rooms, just under the official home seal, proudly showing a pin, in which most decision -makers normally show the American flag – a quiet exchange, which puts symbolism over the substance, emphasizing the shameless loyalty shown to Trump, especially by appointed and members of his office.

And for those that wonder if Trump’s golden image was only a one -time flex by Carr, we assure you that every one this except: He sent Pin Trump-head repeatedly on X, apparently convinced that replacing the national emblem with the face of his favorite president is solely good branding.
Social media had a day in the field.
“Once again, how is it not a cult?” One person joked at Reddit.
“Certain real energy select your large shiny pin with you, one user has extinguished in one other post, showing that Carr was rading a full display.
Another person offered Carr some wardrobe advice: “A disgusting idiot, you have no honesty, why not attach this damn badge on the forehead.”
One user summed up the slack in a neat post: “How crazy is wearing Pinie Trump, as if you are his fan president? Are you 12? Are you an ethical challenge?”
The controversy and its slack had a disturbing echo of the oppression of regimes, in which facial high heels are a smaller alternative of fashion and more tactics of survival. For example, North Korea made miniature portraits of Kim il-Sung and Kim Jong-N. Virtually mandatory. Mao Zedong had its own lip cult during China’s cultural revolution.
The similarity was not lost by critics who saw this type of cult Hero, who crawled dangerously near authoritarian cosplay in American politics, unlike before.
The White House tried to tear him away.
“Of course, we have not ordered officials to wear this pin. If they decide to wear it, it is to show support for the greatest president in history,” said an unnamed official News Yahoo.
It was a kind of statement that unintentionally confirmed the whole point.
Carr didn’t comment on the slack, but Trump’s golden head already spoke. At a time when the loyalty to Trump was under a great criticism in democratic circles, Szpilka seemed less like a personal statement, and more with the shutter of the current climate in Washington – with republicans not showing resistance to the Trump program and symbolism play a direct role in remaining in Trump’s good favors.
And Carr was not the only headline. In February, a representative of New York Claudia Tenney decided that the highest time in which America made Trump’s birthday a federal holiday. Yes, you read well. In the invoice, which practically got here a gift in Maga Red, Tenney proposed joining on June 14-the Flag Day-a latest holiday called “Trump’s Birthday and Flag Day”. Her pitch? This Trump, like George Washington, deserves its day on his calendar.
“As our 45 and 47. President is the most consistent president of the modern history of America,” Tenney said, he brushed the belief about Trump’s crime, civil discovery of sexual sexual abuse and two impeachments, reminiscent of parking tickets.
It even belonged to Trump’s “founder of the Golden Age of America”, a sentence that seemed less like a legislative blaster, and more at the starting of the history of Origin Marvel Comics.
This movement caused their very own wave of criticism on the web, and commentators compared the proposal of something from the North Korean textbook. “We are still saying that it is a cult,” one user wrote, “and they still prove us.”
To sum up, Bill and Pin Carr offer greater than just isolated quirks – they show a party an increasing number of shaped by the image of one man, each literally and legislative.

The major protests in the Congress Town Halls have recently develop into regular, especially in the protests of republican legislators, because voters express the indignation of some major financing cuts and federal terms of employees conducted by the Trump administration, which affect critical agencies, including the Department of Education and Social Security Administration.
Democratic members of the Congress tried to make use of the unpopularity of Trump’s actions and their support from the Republicans. When many Republicans refused to maintain the town hall due to the constant protests from indignant voters, some democrats kept their very own town hall in republican districts.
Congressmenka said that “very unfortunate that so many people would be hurt and have already been injured in this process, so I’m very concerned.” However, Democrat said that she believed that her party “will win the next round.”
She added: “We intend to take this government back and do for people we are trying to do now. And what we have to do is make sure that everyone has a decent quality of life. We hope to do it.”
