This has prompted a shift in the campaign. No longer is Kamala pretending to be a centrist, moving beyond identity politics. Now she’s trying to be like Al Sharpton and promise black voters that she will dole out exclusive benefits to them—so long as they vote for her.

When Kamala began her campaign, she tried to portray herself as a middle-of-the-road politician. She believed in strong borders (ignore her open border record). She was for boosting American energy (ignore her past support for radical environmentalism). And, most importantly, she was moving beyond “woke” (ignore her past support for reparations and eliminating Columbus Day).

Her acceptance speech at the DNC emphasized her moderate pitch, appealing more to the middle class than to identity politics.

The media fell for this act, gushing over how Kamala, who would “make history” with her various identities, eschewed identity politics. NPR fawningly noted last month how Kamala doesn’t talk about her identity and focuses on the broader middle class. Politico praised her in August for sidestepping the issue and pledging to be “for all Americans.” MSNBC declared her avoiding race and gender the smart political move.

But that’s no longer Kamala’s strategy, as the “Opportunity Agenda for Black Men” indicates. This policy is identity politics on steroids. Here are the five points of the plan:

• Providing 1 million loans that are fully forgivable to Black entrepreneurs and others to start a business.
• Championing education, training, and mentorship programs that help Black men get good-paying jobs in high-demand industries and lead their communities, including pathways to become teachers.
• Supporting a regulatory framework for cryptocurrency and other digital assets so Black men who invest in and own these assets are protected.
• Launching a National Health Equity Initiative focused on Black Men that addresses sickle cell disease, diabetes, mental health, prostate cancer, and other health challenges that disproportionately impact them.
• Legalizing recreational marijuana and creating opportunities for Black Americans to succeed in this new industry

Along with this plan, she’s entertaining reparations once again, telling popular black radio host Lenard Larry McKelvey, aka “Charlamagne tha God,” that she will look into it as president.

She’s also trotting out the Central Park Five—five black men who went to jail for the assault and rape of a white woman—to show how dangerous Trump is for blacks. The Five, whose innocence is dubious, claim in a new ad that Trump wanted them executed simply for the color of their skin.

It is very funny what she thinks will win over black men. The plan is to give them generous loans, support their crypto investments, and legalize weed. It’s not even attempting to offer them any higher ideal for their vote. It’s simply appealing to a caricature and hoping it works. It envisions that black men simply want more goodies from the government and legal weed. It’s an understandable yet brazen pitch. Kamala might as well propose free menthol cigarettes while she’s at it. (Appropriately, the Biden administration continues to delay a menthol cigarette ban to avoid alienating black voters.)

Will this be enough to excite black voters for Kamala? Probably not.

The real issue for Harris is her personality. People don’t like her. She’s inauthentic; she flip-flops all the time, and she’s extremely awkward in the public eye. She doesn’t have what it takes to excite black voters. They’ve already had a black president. A second one isn’t that inspiring anymore. Kamala muddies her identity by also insisting she’s Indian. Obama didn’t go out there and talk about his white identity. He was just black, and that’s what black voters would prefer. Kamala’s multiracial identity further cements her chameleon reputation. She’ll change who she is depending on the audience. Many blacks don’t like this.

Her campaign itself has also centered itself around college-educated white women. We had the “brat” theme, then the childless cat lady debate, and then the Taylor Swift endorsement, complete with press releases entirely in Swift lyrics. The focus on this demographic has paid dividends for the Harris campaign, as polls indicate she’s set to win a record number of college-educated whites. However, this pitch leaves other voters feeling left out. Black dudes seem to not be thrilled with the high-caste Brat.

This strategy may still be enough to win Kamala the election. It would be an important change in politics if Democrats win the college-educated white vote by double digits while Republicans finally get double-digit black support. It’s a smart trade-off for Team Blue. But I doubt the results will be that good for them. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be melting down over the lack of black enthusiasm. Democrats need high black turnout to win elections. Running up the score in suburban blue enclaves won’t win them battleground states with significantly black cities.

Whatever happens, Kamala’s black men plan should dispel delusions that she’s some kind of moderate. She may have no principles besides her own advancement, but whenever she’s forced to make decisions, she comes down on the far left. Look at her career as a district attorney and attorney general. Look at her Senate record and 2020 campaign. Just look at what she’s done as vice president. She’s a conniving leftist who will accelerate the Great Replacement and make America look more like California.

The true sensible moderate in this election is Donald Trump. Only a fool would fall for Kamala’s ever-shifting pitch.

While Trump storms through the blue strongholds, Kamala is nowhere to be found, and meanwhile, Barry’s out there lecturing black men, treating them like misogynistic oafs for not backing Harris. […]

But not anymore. Barry has lost his mojo.

The man who was once revered as a strong, charismatic leader is now a shell of his former self. Remember 2016, when he campaigned for Hillary? He was still commanding arenas full of voters. Sure, Hillary lost, but to be fair to Barry, she might be even worse than he is, so he didn’t have much to work with. Plus, they hadn’t perfected “mail-in ballots” yet. […]

And if that wasn’t enough, while Kamala was trying to score political points by attacking Governor DeSantis during Hurricane Milton, Biden was praising the Florida Governor. So what’s really going on? Well, Newt Gingrich thinks he knows. He believes Joe and Jill have teamed up to undercut Harris—and he thinks he knows exactly why.

2WAY:

“We’re in the early stages of watching her collapse,” says @newtgingrich of Kamala Harris. “It’s just my hunch …. that sometime in the last two weeks, Joe and Jill looked at each other and thought, you know, wouldn’t it be a great legacy if Joe’s the only guy ever to beat Trump? And I think the stuff he’s done to undermine her in the last ten days is pretty amazing.”

It’s interesting how Bolton sees Trump as a threat because of his tariffs and claims Trump doesn’t “understand” how trade works. In reality, it’s Bolton who doesn’t grasp the art of high-stakes negotiations and what leverage really means. But of course, that’s because Bolton is a Deep State insider. Vivek expertly points this out to the audience in such a brilliant and smooth way that you grasp it before you even realize it.

That takes talent, and Vivek is the master.

John Bolton said tonight that “Donald Trump doesn’t know what he’s talking about” with respect to his own trade policies. Tried my best to use it as a teaching moment for the audience about how the deep state really works. pic.twitter.com/rQHADoBXY7

As it turns out, ActBlue might not be so deserving of any accolades, as its possibly shady operating practices have caught the attention of some GOP lawmakers. RedState’s Brandon Morse reported back in August that whistleblowers had come forward with claims that ActBlue was “skirting campaign donation laws,” prompting the Committee on House Administration, headed by Rep. Bryan Steil (R-WI), to take action:

In a letter sent to top officials on the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on Monday, Steil urged them to “immediately initiate an emergency rulemaking to require political campaigns to verify the card verification value (‘CVV’) of donors who contribute online using a credit or debit card, and to prohibit political campaigns from accepting online contributions from a gift card or other prepaid credit cards.”

Now, 19 state attorneys general are launching their own probe, alleging that ActBlue is engaging in a money-laundering practice known as “smurfing”:

Proud to partner with 19 attorneys general in investigating whether ActBlue is facilitating “smurfing”––a type of money laundering in which donors break up large donations and submit them under different names.

Secure elections are vital to our republic.
