I said the very same thing on here... and was shut down! called a conspiracy theorist or something similar.

I think Kamala has made a few cockups in her public interviews and rallies. It's been nothing but celebrity driven, desperate measures to lure in the idiots and the vote, just cos their favourite musician or movie star says so.

They have both used celebrities in their rallies. Out of touch, rich celebrities who don’t know what the real world looks let like endorsing presidential candidates is laughable.

And what a world we are living in. Where are the bankers? Economists? Someone with knowledge and political experience, someone who can rally the people behind their elected based on the plans going forward, information and data.

Instead we have J Lo crying her fuking eyes out. and hulk hogan doing whatever he does..... which is what exactly?

Stupid

I'm not sure anyone said EVERYONE under the age of 25 will not be voting for Harris. I'm pretty sure a lot of the pro palistinian progressive folk will be giving it a lot if thought as too the lesser of Two Evils. Michigan is the key state with the amount of Arabs/Muslims, She loses this state and it's all over likewise with Pennsylvania

Mideast conflict has some longtime Democrats in battleground Michigan turning away from Kamala Harris

The Israel-Hamas war is a major vulnerability for Vice President Kamala Harris, with some uncommitted Democratic voters considering leaving the presidential box on their ballots blank.

Anyway there's still 120% to be made for every pound you put on an Harris victory.

You should try going to hustings at a British election. 25 people in a dusty room with some boring old farts talking nonsense. Most candidates don’t even hold them. Give me J Lo every time.

The economists (23 Nobel Prize winning ones) and bakers have said that a Harris victory is better for the economy and national debt.

They have written papers on it.

23 Nobel Prize-winning economists call Harris’ economic plan ‘vastly superior’ to Trump’s | CNN Politics

More than half of the living US recipients of the Nobel Prize for economics signed a letter that called Vice President Kamala Harris’ economic agenda “vastly superior” to the plans laid out by former President Donald Trump.
amp.cnn.com amp.cnn.com

And The Economist has endorsed her:

What’s stupid is you decrying the lack of endorsements from serious people when they are plainly available.

What a good two way discussion, the likes of which we've seen precious little of.

I watched this earlier and have to admit I do like Buttigieg.

It seems though according to some of the leftist youtube sites they weren't as randomly picked. The Middle East conflict was not even on the table to be asked, Which is a bit strange in the One state with the biggest Arab/Muslim population.

Because that's the last thing that people want, they don't want to be told that the person they're voting for is actually a knobhead. Politics has changed over the last 10 years to become nothing more than a TikTok popularity contest, nobody wants the facts on either side because nobody respects those facts anyway.

The proof in the pudding is Donald Trump himself who is a monument to a lack of facts and figures because most of them disprove who he says he is. This is why he discredits the media who challenge him on what he says. The facts show that he's nothing more than a lying, sleazy salesman whose only major achievement really has been avoiding prison.

I once quite liked Elon Musk for example but how can such a clever and detail oriented person vote for Trump let alone campaign for him? It makes no sense but he is and doing that just shows how much people's brains have melted to the point that facts are not going to help.

Dunno.

Can't possibly be tax cuts for billionaires, removal of any regulatory constraint on his activities and personal power and publicity, so must be elsewhere.

[short version: Musk is a self-interested narcissist just like Trump]

For me, this goes some way to explaining it.

I don't believe that, Musk once voluntarily paid £bns in tax.

As per my previous post I think his brain has just melted and he's been taken into the cult.
