I believe Musk's purchase of Twitter, cleaning up that cesspool of lies and disinformation and the installation of Michael Whatley and Lara Trump, replacing that swamp rat, Ronna McDaniel, as RNC chairs were the most significant contributors and turning points for Trump's victory.

Trump was different, no real unforced errors. I believe that was an ongoing turning point.

Musk's purchase of Twitter

IMO, the single biggest event .

Which led to uncensored discussions about the overall economy, border issues (by allowing coverage of things like Venezuelan gangs in Colorado), etc.

I agree. Exactly this. Imagine what it would have been like had Musk not stepped up and bought out Twitter.

Biden leaving the race was big for Democrats, they were toast with Joe Bidens corpse as a candidate.

DNC was a flop from a momentum perspective and it ends up killing her with Muslims down the road.

Debates didn't highlight Kamala well, at best broke even.

Lack of interviews for Kamala didn't give her a chance to pivot or change the momentum.

Trump dominates the media cycles like he did to Hillary. Everything is what trump said to Kamala or about kamalas plan not how awesome her plans were

Hard to argue with your take. I totally agree.

In context of Trump vs Harris, the turning point was the VP debate. They had like 3 perfect weeks and we were struggling. Everything changed after JDV wrecked Tampon Tim.

I'm going to to with the Trump "She is for They/Them and He is for YOU" ads started airing.

Next, when Kamala went on the View and said she could not think of anything different she would do from Biden.

All of yall's different takes on my question sure does illustrate the fact that Trump had no shortage of ammunition for the election.

Maybe not Turning point but important to some: Kamala not appearing on Joe Rogan. If She is afraid of Joe then how will she deal with Putin, China, North Korea, or Iran?

Nothing was bigger than Musk. But we should mention Rumble too.

Also let's not forget Tucker.
