Monday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Ian Sams, Joe Scarborough, Stacey Abrams, Tavis Smiley, and more.

The BIG Lies

“Donald Trump … is talking about sending a prominent Republican to the firing squad.” —Harris senior adviser Ian Sams

“Donald Trump [is] calling for Liz Cheney being shot in the face.” —MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough

Dumb & Dumber

“While we are excited about who’s showing up, we have to understand that turnout does not mean there’s not voter suppression activity.” —failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams

“Here in the state of Georgia, despite the government making it harder to cast your ballot, people are willing to fight to make it happen anyway.” —Stacey Abrams

Non Compos Mentis

“I think JD Vance has mommy issues. … And because of those issues, he has subjected women across this country to all his bad ideas and all his bad policies.” —CNN commentator Tavis Smiley

Freudian Slip

“I have fought for many who have harmed other human beings.” —Kamala Harris

Political Futures

“Harris is now confirming to voters that she really can neither think nor speak well and has no consistent agenda that appeals to the middle class. So, in final desperation, Harris is smearing Trump as a fascist, even though ironically, he has been the target of fascist machinations from her own party and supporters for nearly a decade.” —Victor Davis Hanson

“If Trump risks revealing too much of himself, Harris risks revealing too little.” —Michael Barone

“The race is too close to call. Republicans hope the results will look like 2016, when Trump outperformed his polls. Democrats hope the results will look like 2022, when an anticipated red wave crashed against an anti-MAGA electorate.” —Matthew Continetti

“If Harris wins, it will be because Trump’s confidence led him to downplay or dismiss two groups that could seal his fate: women worried about abortion rights and suburban independents and Republicans alarmed at Trump’s personality and the MAGA movement.” —Matthew Continetti

“If Harris loses, an impaired Biden stepping down from pursuing a second term at 81 years old and then clearing the way for a largely unvetted and unpracticed Harris to replace him might seem an obvious mistake. If Trump loses, it might appear obvious that it was a mistake for Trump to insist he really won in 2020 and elbow aside all primary competition this year at 78 years old.” —Michael Barone

And Last…

“It sure seems like Democrats are hoping to win this election by insulting voters in as many ways as possible.” —Nate Jackson
