2024 Elections

With just one month to go before voters head to the polls, the winner of the 2024 presidential election will likely be determined by which candidate has necessary infrastructure to most effectively turn out voters. And Republicans are now worrying that Vice President Kamala Harris has a significant edge over former President Donald Trump in that regard.

The Washington Post reported that there are concerns spreading among the Trump campaign and Republican National Committee (RNC) leadership that Harris' significant fundraising edge could prove difficult to overcome for the former president. Fundraising is necessary for convincing the tens of thousands of remaining undecided voters in the handful of battleground states likely to decide the Electoral College majority. Money can go toward multiple types of critical voter outreach including campaign rallies, TV and digital advertising, field canvassing and direct mail efforts, among others.

Reacting to a Washington Post report on the alarming trend of Donald Trump fans leaving early during his increasingly smaller rallies, the panel on MSNBC's "The Weekend" suggested it is a sign that the former president's act is growing tired and even his MAGA supporters are losing interest.

According to conservative lawyer George Conway, the fleeing MAGA fans could be a harbinger of what to expect on voting day in November.

Asked for his analysis about what is going on, he explained that not only is most of the country tired of Trump, but some of his most avid supporters are flat-out exhausted with politics in general.

"I think if there is an exhaustion factor creeping in," he told the co-hosts. "I mean maybe it's anecdotal from people saying they are looking at these crowds and looking for yard signs but you don't feel the level of energy that they had before."

"I think his own base is exhausted by him and I think the whole country is exhausted," he elaborated. "But the people who want to vote them out, who have been against him all along, and the people who have come to understand his true evil, those people are motivated to get out."

He added, "The other people sick of him are his own people and it's like, ''All right, I don't want to go to another rally. Do I really want –– do I have to get up on election day? How many envelopes do I have to –– these envelopes are bad; I'm not going to vote."

The new bombshell filing by special counsel Jack Smith that details alleged criminal acts by Donald Trump not only makes a case that he should land in jail, it also provides evidence of his psychological problems.

That was the opinion of conservative lawyer George Conway who appeared on MSNBC's "The Weekend' on Saturday morning.

Singling out the documentation about Trump's lack of concern for vice president Mike Pence's safety during the Jan. 6 riot, Conway first called it "Classic Donald Trump."

After noting Trump replied "So what?" when warned about Pence's safety, Conway explained, "He cares about nobody, nothing other than himself – it is all about him."

"It doesn't matter whether people got hurt or were going to get hurt on January 6th. It didn't matter that his vice president who had been loyal to him for 3 1/2 years or four years, might be in danger, he doesn't care," he continued. "He is a sociopath and that is more evidence of Donald Trump's sickness. We can't allow, as Liz Cheney put so well this week, we can't allow completely, a man completely lacking in compassion and decency to be president again."

Donald Trump's re-election prospects suffered a body blow last week in the key battleground states of North Carolina and Georgia through no fault of his campaign.

This time it was due to the weather.

According to a report from Politico, Hurricane Helene not only ravaged communities, leaving heartbreaking death and destruction in its wake, but also disproportionately pummeled areas that are Republican strongholds – and that could have a serious impact on the former president's election hopes.

As Politico's Ariel Wittenberg, Avery Ellfeldt and Thomas Frank reported, "The parts of western North Carolina and eastern Georgia that were flooded by the monster storm are largely Republican. In 2020, he won 61 percent of the vote in the North Carolina counties that were declared a disaster after Helene. He won 54 percent of the vote in Georgia’s disaster counties."

The United Auto Workers this week reiterated its warning that the Republican presidential ticket of Donald Trump and JD Vance is a threat to working-class Americans in response to a refusal by Vance to commit to honoring a $500 million federal grant for an electric vehicle plant in Michigan.

Both Trump and Vance—a venture capitalist turned U.S. senator from Ohio who often postures as a working-class ally—are campaigning in Michigan, a key swing state, this week.

U.S. Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.) and his GOP opponent Dave McCormick met for an acrimonious debate Thursday in Harrisburg, trading barbs over foreign and domestic policy, with each trying to cast the other as a “weak” candidate who blindly follows his party’s leadership.

Casey homed in on McCormick’s career as a hedge fund manager and his residency status, and McCormick repeatedly claimed Casey had been ineffective as Pennsylvania’s senior senator.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer says comments made in Michigan Wednesday by vice presidential candidate U.S. Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) are a “middle finger to Michigan auto workers.”

Whitmer was responding to comments reported by The Detroit News when Vance was asked while stumping in Michigan whether a second former President Donald Trump administration would commit to upholding a $500 million federal grant from the Biden administration that would convert the General Motors Lansing Grand River Plant, which currently makes Cadillac sedans, into a future electric vehicle plant.

Just over a month away from the U.S. general election, the largest progressive political organizing group in the country announced Friday that it is aiming to encourage 5 million voters in seven battleground states to vote against former Republican President Donald Trump.

Our Revolution hopes to reach voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin via door-knocking, phone calls, and text messages ahead of the November election, in which Trump is facing Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump will make a defiant return Saturday to the small town in Pennsylvania where an assassin tried to shoot him dead during a rally attended by thousands of supporters.

The former president will appear alongside J.D. Vance, his running mate in the November election, as well as family members of those hurt in the July 13 attack, first responders and tech billionaire Elon Musk.

Donald Trump’s latest campaign promise to restore Confederate names to military facilities that have been changed over the last two years drew a sharp rebuke from at least one former Republican member of Congress Friday night.

“Screw the Confederacy,” said former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) in a social media post. “Public announcement: the Confederacy lost, they were traitors, despicable and disgusting and while we should study them to see how brain worms work, everything honoring the confederacy should be removed.”

Conservative attorney and Donald Trump critic George Conway said Friday the former president's repeated false claims about Hurricane Helene relief are taken straight from Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler's playbook.

Conway detailed to MSNBC's Alex Wagner his take on Trump's false claims that President Joe Biden had been unreachable, flushed Federal Emergency Management Agency funds into migrant shelters and withheld aid from Republican-favoring areas.
