Michelle Obama famously said, "When they go low, we go high.'

In these times I'd add, "...and also low."
Given that Kamala Harris is a liberal woman of color with Jewish connections going up against a campaign that has been nakedly fascist, racist, misogynistic, and antisemitic, somebody needs to return fire. I think that Ms. Harris and President Biden would be better off remaining above the dreck, but a lot of us don't need to. Remember this isn't great political philosophy -- it's needling TFG and the MAGAts with things that piss them off and makes them say self-destructive things:
Some talking points:
* Trump farts uncontrollably and is incontinent. Numerous people have complained about his odor.
* He wears lifts that are so extreme that his shoes fell off during the assassination attempt. He has a special platform to support the front of his feet when he's speaking because he can't stand very long with the lifts otherwise.
* He has the support of Evangelical leaders and says God is on his side, yet has never acknowledged any sins or expressed contrition. The Evangelicals have long since given up trying to sell the idea that he was "born again". If he wasn't they're standing by his side as (as per their stated beliefs) he's headed straight to Hell, which makes them pretty wonderful Christians too, no?
* He's been convicted of sexual assault. He also admitted to being a sexual assaulter on an audio recording.
* He's been convicted on 35 (oops, 34. My bad) counts of felony fraud -- on every charge brought against him by prosecutors.
* He molested children procured for him by Epstein.
* He bullshat everyone into believing he was a successful businessman when his only skill was moving money invisibly out of his Daddy's estate -- or later laundering dirty Russian Mafia money.
* He stole classified documents. Much of the evidence was displayed publicly for everyone to see. He'd be in be in jail now if his corrupt judges hadn't bailed him out.
* He has a thing about Hannibal Lecter. You know, the guy who bit someone's face off and used as a mask in a prison break. Hannibal Lecter, if he existed, would have had this guy for lunch. (OK, I apologize, that was bad.)
* He likes dictators. I mean, really likes dictators. Unfortunately, his corrupted SCOTUS has decreed that whoever is in the White House is now a dictator.
* He has dementia. He inherited it from his father who died of it. His speeches are deranged. I think the only way he's gotten away with the shtick so long is that no one actually listens to them.
* He (and his people) planned the 1/6 Insurrection and cheerled while it was ongoing. People actually died that day. We almost lost the country.
I could go on. There's more. My typing fingers are tired.
