Kamala Harris

It must have been embarrassing for Trump and his cult to see him being played like a fiddle in the debate by someone they're repeatedly told is stupid.

She's not stupid. Just phony. And it's easy to beat your opponent when you gang up with the refs.

That said, I think in the moment, it looked like Kamala Harris won. But in reality, she didn't. Her moderators did their best to fight for her and ask her as few questions as possible. And when she didn't answer them or simply transition into a Trump attack she never got called on it.

The whole debate can be summed up in one sentence "They are eating the pets!" However you think that statement played out determined who won. Nothing else about the debate was memorable or consequential.

This by the way is one of those odd skills Trump has. The ability to win the moment while it seems he isn't.

Stupid.
Gullible.
Uneducated.
Deranged.
Morally-damaged.

You pick it, I’ll play it, kid, as we say.

You may not have heard of that phrase in PA; apologies.

LOL.
 
I'm just curious to see what people think of this CBS editing thing. Especially as they haven't denied it and Harris' campaign team say they had nothing to do with any editing

She is just a typical politcian. Call that phony, if you like, but in those terms they all are.

Possibly didn’t play the whole answer, releasing 2 separate parts of the actual response.

Saying that, I didn’t see any issues with either response.

I mean, I THINK a relatively intelligent person can probably figure out that news media edits and interviewees regularly re-answer questions, but since I worked in the medium, and deal with the print press literally every week, I am happy to explain it more. I can tell you it can be a tricky dance.

I think if you do not know much about how interviews work (shock, horror, all of Trump’s sit down interviews with the likes of Fox News and Newsmax are heavily edited) and are already looking for something to beat Harris with, then this will seem like a big topic to discuss.

But anyone that knows how these interviews work, and knows Trump is—for the millionth time—being incredibly disingenuous and hypocritical trying to make this a “scandal”, is not really interested in it, because it is yet another attempt at creating a distraction from the batshite crazy and dangerous things he has been saying and threatening to do (and yet another confession through accusation).

The thing is SB that I'm not even posting it from a Trump point of view.
I'm genuinely not.
I'm posting it from the point of view of "how the hell did this woman get to run for President?"

That question seems to get lost in all the stuff in here.

What about Harris makes you think she is not qualified to run for the presidency?

Do you think she is less or more qualified to be president than Trump?

That doesn't answer what I posted. What do YOU think qualifies her to be President? Take Trump out of the equation.

Personally I think Harris is devoid of any conviction, runs scared on a 121 serious interview and just desperately tries to get to her comfort zone of "aspirational platitudes" that mean absolutely nothing.

If I was a USA citizen and voter I wouldn't vote for either of the candidates, and would be looking for someone who has neither of the two candidates traits

Your original post didn’t ask me a question, so I wasn’t aware I needed to answer something?

But that is an interesting perspective.

And that is a fair question. It was almost by fluke. Biden shit the bed too late in it, primaries and wotnot gone. So the VP got the nod by a combo of default or necessity.

Just hope she manages to best Trump. If she does the machinations of government will abide. If that dangerous prick wins, anything could happen

For what its worth, I think he will get back in

She seems to be judged by a different standard to others. Not sure why, and it seems to me one of those things where if you say something enough times people will start to believe it.

Especially when you consider Trump simply doesn’t take 121 serious interviews. He literally pulls (or walks) out of any actual interview (which is not merely a propaganda piece with a very friendly interviewer and network).

It is very interesting how harshly Harris is judged by some compared Trump.

Perhaps because, by me at least, I see any Democrat runner (in this particular race) being the more serious nominee by default. Maybe that's why I expect more from their runner.
