Operation Transfiguration may be the most audacious plan a political party has ever undertaken.
Ms.
Harris’s political identity as the most liberal member of a Senate that included Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren; a presidential campaign five years ago in which she pledged to eliminate private health insurance, ban fracking, give benefits to illegal immigrants, and force gun owners to sell certain firearms to the government; more recent recollections of her San Francisco-bred extremism such as when she helped raise money for the legal defense of rioters and looters in the summer of 2020; and her role in helping Mr. Biden deliver a long list of economic, social and national-security failures for the country—most obviously at the border.
All this is why so many Democrats were alarmed at the thought of a Harris nomination, the same nomination they now trumpet as triumphant.
If the election is decided on the issues, on voters’ perceptions of the state of the country, Ms. Harris is surely in as much trouble as Mr. Biden was.
If the campaign is dominated by pointless assertions about Ms. Harris’s racial identity or her maternal status or all the other entertaining little diversions Mr.
Trump likes to indulge, she may get away with skating past the realities of her past.
.Here are the top political news stories for today.
"The first is a focused, disciplined and relentless Republican campaign": The Trump campaign is completely incapable of this.
"The other is the media. Are they really going to guide this campaign gently across the finish line?"
Of course they are. Start getting ready for President Word Salad.

with Trump ranting about sharks and showers, and his running mate saying stepmoms aren't real moms, not sure the word salad issue favors the gop.
Apparently the stock market crash is going to save America from a disastrous slide into Socialism. "It's the economy stupid."
@SadSenateRepublican2yrs2Y
Yes but the collaborative media will blame Biden and anoint Kamala as our savior.
Facts might not be enough to save Trump when the collaborative media buries it.
It's truly amazing how quickly the narrative shifted from "Biden is sharp as a tack and 100% capable of beating Trump" to "Biden is senile and must be replaced to protect democracy" and finally "Harris is sharp as a tack and 1000% capable of beating Trump!"
My question: If Harris is now truly so wonderful and popular, why not let her earn the nomination through some kind of voter-involved process?
Nothing changed. She was the easiest path to move campaign finance to. That's it. Everything else is simply manufactured by the DNC and the Media - the exact same people that told you Biden was sharp as a tack and on the pinnacle of his career. Clearly you can't believe anything they say. And if you do, well...it speaks volumes about you.
