July 23, 2024
Once upon a time, in the bustling and ever-changing landscape of American politics, there emerged a man named Donald Trump. A billionaire real estate mogul and reality TV star, Trump decided to make his mark on the political stage. With his larger-than-life personality and unfiltered rhetoric, he captured the nation's attention.
In the year 2016, Donald Trump ran for the highest office in the land—the presidency of the United States. Defying the odds and silencing many doubters, he won the election against the seasoned politician Hillary Clinton. His victory was historic, surprising, and controversial, setting the stage for a presidency marked by bold decisions, fiery debates, and widespread division.
As his first term neared its end, Trump announced his bid for re-election in 2020. His campaign was as energetic and combative as ever, but this time, the political landscape was different. Faced with a global pandemic, economic challenges, and social unrest, the nation was deeply polarized. His opponent, former Vice President Joe Biden, offered a contrasting vision of unity and stability.
The 2020 election was a hard-fought battle, but in the end, Joe Biden emerged victorious. Trump challenged the results, claiming widespread fraud and launching numerous legal battles, but to no avail. The loss was a bitter pill to swallow for Trump and his supporters.
Undeterred, Donald Trump remained a powerful figure in American politics. In 2024, he decided to run for president once more, hoping to recapture the White House and prove his doubters wrong. His campaign was relentless, filled with rallies, debates, and media appearances, but the political landscape had shifted yet again. This time, a younger, charismatic candidate named Kamala Harris stood as his opponent.
The election was another fierce contest, but when the votes were counted, Kamala Harris emerged as the victor. Trump had lost the presidency for the second time. This defeat earned him a new, albeit unflattering, nickname: "Two Time Loser Trump".
Despite the losses, Donald Trump's influence on American politics remained undeniable. He continued to be a polarizing figure, inspiring both fervent support and staunch opposition. His story, marked by triumphs and defeats, became a testament to the unpredictable and ever-evolving nature of democracy in the United States.

July 29, 2024 - Ahead of Election Day 2020, Donald Trump told supporters that a Joe Biden presidency would “unleash an economic disaster of epic proportions” and force the country “into depression.” We now know, of course, that the predictions were spectacularly wrong; the United States under Biden has seen a dramatic economic recovery, and Americans are now benefiting from the strongest economy on the planet.
In theory, this would be around the time that the former president offered some kind of explanation for being wrong. In practice, Trump is simply recycling the same false predictions. At an event over the weekend, for example, the GOP presidential nominee, pointing to a claim no credible observers have actually made, argued that some believe “if Trump isn’t elected, this country is going to go into a depression the likes of which you had in 1929.” Read more on MSNBC.com.

July 31, 2024 - Vice President Harris used the biggest event of her campaign thus far to take on one of her biggest political liabilities: the reoccurring surges in migration at the southern U.S. border during the Biden administration.

Harris blamed Trump for tanking the bill, because the issue of immigration played well for him. Biden later took executive action to try to accomplish some of the same goals, though it is being challenged in court. Read more at NPR.org.
