      “I just wanted to check out my future plane… I also wanted to go say hello to the vice president and ask her why she refuse to answer questions from the media,” Vance said, jabbing at Harris.

      It’s not unheard of during a general election campaign for opposing candidates to cross paths as they travel, especially given the compressed map that limits much of the campaign activity to a relative few states that will determine the Electoral College winner.

      But also, what exactly is the AP doing here? The Trump campaign purposefully scheduled JD Vance to follow Harris to all these places after she released her schedule. They’re not just “crossing paths as they travel,” he’s literally following her

      PS What is Trump even doing this week? Is Vance campaigning alone now?

        Trump is too old to keep up with Kamala’s schedule. And he hates the photos of the same venue really full for Kamala and half full for him, so he’s avoiding the comparison like he’s avoiding the debate. He hates being seen to lose. He’s the world’s sorest loser.

        That poor guy…why schedule the scrub newbie to go on stage after the major blowout headliner? Must be Vance’s punishment for sucking. Gonna be fun when Kamala starts posting up the comparison of each event he follows to hers. HAHAHAHA

        and yeah, I get trump’s “strategy”, but he is using checkers in a chess game and expecting the same plays to work.

        Uncreative, boring, poorly thought out. Weird ancient strats in a modern battlefield. Weak.

          It’s not so much a strategy as being unable to keep up with Kamala physically or in crowd sizes.

      Vance, continuing his jocular jabbing, said he’d be more than willing to debate Harris on Aug. 13 “if she’d like to do a debate with me.” That was a matchup scheduled before Biden stepped down, meaning it would have put Vance and Harris on the same stage as vice presidential rivals.

      Actually, I think it would be good to change the standard routine of having the VP candidates debate each other, to having them debate the opposing presidential candidates. Then we’d get to see the top-ticket candidates debate two opponents each, instead of just each other.

        She should challenge him to show up in September to NBC

        They should set up debate podiums at all these places he’s following her and have her stand there, ready to debate. Then we can watch him turn as chicken shit as Trump and refuse.

          The first question she should ask him would be "why am I debating you and not mister “any time, any place”?

      Is that some new type of sectional I’ve never heard of?

      Thanks.

      While the daily beast is a fun read, it’s hard to make out where they exaggerate and dramatify things
