Subject: Re: Tim Walz and Stolen Valor

Which is why, I think, GOP internal efforts to persuade Trump to run an issues campaign are unlikely to be successful. They know they have to have this, too. That's why they need the "stolen nomination/coup" or the "dishonest about being Black" or the "stolen valor" or the "CHEATING with AI photos" attack lines to get some traction. They need to give their voters a personal disqualifier so that they'll feel okay voting for Trump again....not just policy differences.

It was funny when Scott Baio recommended Trump just run on issues. That "personal disqualifier" is the key, and nothing looks like it's sticking.
