I understand all the attention on the clown,as he is definitely the scum bag they are describing.  But I think Harris needs to spend what time she has left talking about the people NOT Trump.

I was listening to a city council candidate from somewhere in Michican talking about the suffering of the people and Harris lack of mentioning her plans for those who need the most help. One example she gave was an employed social worker, single mother with two kids, and homeless.  Poverty is the US is a real problem that needs someone to step up with solutions. 

Her point was, there was a lot of enthusiasm for Harris at the beginning,  but they are not seeing  themselves in her plans.  They will not vote for Trump,  but they may not vote at all, which spells disaster for Harris.

I know she is threading a small needle, between the left and the right to hold her coalition.   But she has to see the forest through the trees to get to the finish lines.

Let the team plaster Trump as a Nazi, she needs to focus on the argument of why Americans need her and nobody else at this moment. Gloves off, no more worrying about Biden's feelings and "leave it all on the field".
