At 2am on August 12th, 2024, former President Donald Trump released a new campaign ad on ๐, breaking a nearly year long streak without making a single post on the platform. The last post he made was his mug-shot featuring the words ELECTION INTERFERENCE and NEVER SURRENDER.
The statement accompanying the video ad stated, โTheyโre not coming after me, theyโre coming after you,โ one of Trumpโs signature slogans.
Trumpโs return to ๐ occurred on the same day his ๐ space with Elon Musk is scheduled to take place. The space will go live at 8pm ET, and will be hosted on Donald Trumpโs ๐ account.
According to Musk, the space is intended to be an unscripted conversation between him and Trump.
These moves by the Trump campaign are presumably an attempt to regain some ground, as the Harris/Walz campaign has been tearing through any gains Trump made in the polls following Biden bowing out of the race, and him nearly being assassinated.
Kamala Harris is now dominating every single poll after only 2 weeks on the campaign trail, raising concerns amongst the Trump campaign and his supporters on social media.
Itโs been reported that Vice President Kamala Harris has vowed to release her campaign platform this week following criticisms that, up until now, she had none.
With less than 85 days until the election, the Democrat National Convention is scheduled to begin August 19th in Chicago, lasting through the 22nd, where sheโs presumed to win and accept the nomination.
