David Plouffe, a senior adviser for Kamala Harris' presidential campaign, said during an Axios House event on Tuesday that the vice president will campaign "much more vigorously" than former President Trump.

Why it matters: Plouffe, who served as former President Obama's campaign manager in 2008, told Axios' Mike Allen that Trump "campaigned hard" in 2016 and "was out there a lot" in 2020, but he's got a "really lazy schedule" in 2024.

Driving the news: Plouffe said that Harris and Gov. Tim Walz are going to campaign aggressively in the key battlegrounds during the crucial stretch of the election. He told Axios on Tuesday that the Sun Belt battlegrounds are back in play for Democrats.

"I think candidate-wise Kamala Harris is reaching people, she's communicating with them in a way that clearly they are finding to be effective, and Donald Trump's not," he said.

"A campaign, yes it's ads, yes it's field operation, all important, but the most important thing in a presidential campaign is the candidate."

"We talk about [Trump] like a child," Plouffe said.

1. tRUMP is lazy at everything! He's a lazy slob, he's dumb and ignorant, and full of s**t.

And he wants the highest office in the land again, so he can go play golf like 300 times or so as he did before?! NO WAY. We don't have the luxury or time to allow a fat pig to wallow in his filth, mucking up everything.

2. Deadbeat Donny

A loathsome layabout, a sloppy slugabed....

3. Trump always wants all the reward...and none of the work.

So obvious, isn't it?

He had mentally prepared himself to do the bare minimum when he thought he was going against Biden. Have Vance and a bunch of flying monkees hit the road and all he had to do was hurl insults on his dumb app and pop out ever now and then to say something provacative to keep him in the headlines.

4. I seem to remember Grampa Trump saying that Hillary was "low energy."

5. He doesn't have to work hard because he thinks they're going to steal the election

They CAN'T steal the election. It's not gonna happen!
You are toast, Chump.

Does anyone wonder why - if they really DID steal it - they'd give it to HIM?
What a waste! What a loser!

6. It occurred to me last night how great it is to still have Joe running the country.

Honestly, running the country well and campaigning at the same time has got to be exhausting, no matter what your age and level of fitness. And there’s always the risk of a national crisis that an incumbent president would have to deal with. With Joe taking care of presidential duties, that leaves Kamala more freedom to really hit the campaign trail. Win win win, I hope!

7. President Biden is simply amazing

I'm sure he could continue doing his job four more years but I'm glad he passed the torch.

8. From what I see, the press is not

paying much attention to this. They are whining about how Kamala is not doing interviews or press conferences. Let them whine. They are biased and they have no respect.
