Elections Kamala Harris for POTUS

[steveflynn]

Video clips of people are talking > a article a journalist wrote taking things out of context.
You have a issue with people posting 30 minute videos of unknown peoples rants that are " let's talk about Trump " or "this is why Harris is bad"

Um , no I dont. Just pointing out that all you do is repost from the same right wing accounts

 

[steveflynn]

Is it because of her campaign or is it because Trump's campaign has been uninspiring to say the least? The man is so arrogant he made no adjustments. He's running the same campaign he lost 4 years ago.

It’s mainly because of the anti trump vote but there’s a good chance that’s all that’s going to be needed

 

[Strychnine]

So did she give the answer this time?

Yes.

But how about you give us your take since you watched it?

 

[Fedor>Cain]

Yes.

But how about you give us your take since you watched it?

Brace yourself for an end wokeness tweet

 

[ShadowRun]

Um, look at her current approval rating. It’s basically 50 50. Also, all you do on here is repost tweets from right wing accounts

I guess you didn’t read all those stories about her be in f historically low VP ratings . Keep stupidly to yourself then

 

[ShadowRun]

Yes.

But how about you give us your take since you watched it?

Haven’t watched it just clips, long day since though can’t answer I’ll try to find to tomorrow after work .

Where did you watch it ?

 

[High Test With da Best]

Didn't I hear something recently, someone here mentioned about the Brooklyn Dad account that the person running in had been cancelled or found out to be a total plant or something? Not trying to derail, just curious if anyone knows about that

 

[Strychnine]

This is how Trump answered a question about what SPECIFICALLY he was going to do to lower gas prices:

Spoiler

Trump: So first of all, she can’t do an interview. She could never do this interview because you ask questions like give me a specific answer. She talks about her lawn when she was growing up. This woman is not equipped to be president. She’s not equipped to deal with President Xi, who I was very, I took in hundreds of billions of dollars with him and Putin. We had no war with Putin. Remember, and I’m just gonna go off just for this. With Bush, they took a lot. Russia. With Biden, they’re trying to take everything. With Obama, they took a lot. With Trump, Russia took nothing. Just remember that, you know, it’s a little, a little chart. But what happened? And when you look at what took place was so sad, when they took over, they cut the oil way down and oil started going through the roof. It was gonna go to $10 a gallon. It was gonna go to numbers that nobody’s ever seen. And so they went back to the Trump drilling, they said, “let it go back”. That was the only good thing. But they stopped because I would be there, but four years later, I would be triple what the number was. Right now they’re just about even where I was. But they only did that because of the fact that they eventually have an election coming up. And you remember at the beginning what happened. That’s one of the reasons that Putin went in because it went to $100 a barrel instead of $40 a barrel. And he could fight all the wars he wants with those kind of numbers, cause he’s a big seller of oil and gas. So what happens is they went back to what I was doing, just said reopen. Just reopen. It wasn’t hard. It’s so crazy what they wanna do. They’re gonna destroy lives. They’re gonna destroy the, what they have done to this country. And especially in the sense of allowing millions and millions of people come in because that’s something, you know, we can fix the gasoline situation and we can fix the, anything.

Official transcript by the way... And this is how he answers almost every question, talking a lot and saying next to nothing.

Never let these chudlefucks utter the phrase "word salad"

"V.P. Harris, what is your economic plan?

"Well, I learned the value of a dollar working at McDonald's. Using that experience, I want to give first time home buyers a credit on the purchase of a home and those starting small businesses an much larger increase on startup grants from the government. And that's just a start."


"Mr. Trump, what is your economic plan?"

- Donold "They're eating the cats!!!! They're eating the Dogs!!!! Electro Hannibal Lecter sharks Communist, Marxists!!! BOMB MEXICO!!!!! WHAHABBLLALALARRRRGGHHH! GOLF!!!!!!111"


The mass media...

- "V.P. Harris needs to be more specific!!!!!"

 

[Strychnine]

Mark wants a seat at the table

"I like him because he's not a politician and he tells it like it is!!!"

Sound familiar?

 

[Strychnine]

Haven’t watched it just clips, long day since though can’t answer I’ll try to find to tomorrow after work .

Where did you watch it ?

Her father was a Marxist professor at Stanford.

What does this even mean? What is a MARXIST professor? You guys say these scary buzz words, but I guarantee most of you haven't read any of Marx's workS, didn't read any of her father's work, and don't even know what post-Keynesian economics is.
Even using your crude descriptor, a professor that teaches Marxism at a university is supposed to be some sort of condemnation? Do you think there aren't courses taught on Nazism or Terrorism? Does that then make that professor a Nazi?
Economic theory is far more complex than this, and just throwing out terms like "Marxist professor" is a meaningless term.

...and yet she made the mistake like Biden calling Zelensky Putin. Imagine how the left would react if Trump had made that mistake. Why doesn't Harris do an interview with Fox News? She should do 3 interviews with 3 different conservative media outlets without taking one week to prep for it.

Again, imagine how the left would have reacted if Trump made either one of the two mistakes.

Trump isn't a good comparison to Kamala when talking about misspeaking, because people talk about his age and mental decline as well. Trump's is just not as bad as Biden's. But he has no shortage of nonsensical answers and blunders.
Why would any Democrat do an interview with Fox news? They don't even pretend to be neutral. That would be like telling Trump he should be interviewed by Rachel Maddow and The Young Turks. Makes no sense.
But she should definitely do more interviews.

You don't seem to know much about Dick Cheney. The man orchestrated the Iraq invasion and told Bush how to go about it.

I specifically said VP's GENERALLY don't do much of anything. Cheney is just about the lone exception in the modern era.
And even with Cheney, he could only have done so because Bush wasn't doing his job. So the point is moot anyways. At the end of the day, the VP can only do what the POTUS allows.

Ah, I recall Biden putting Harris in charge of the southern border and she refusing to get involved with it. Harris, much like Cheney, could have made Biden sign a document closing the southern border. Something that would take less than one minute. Congress does not have to be involved in this decision.

Again, reality: Biden can't "put her in charge of the border". No matter what he said, she can't do shit about the border. He threw her under the bus by doing that, and there was behind the scenes rumors of them not getting along.
lol and no, you can't just sign a paper and close the border. If that's all it took, why didn't Trump do that?

No he is not. He was a far better president than Biden and Americans were much better off under Trump than they are under Biden. Trump poses no danger to US democracy. Where do you people come up with these stupid conclusions? Harris and her socialist views are a much bigger danger to American democracy.

Harris will follow all the established democratic policies made by Obama. Even Obama was against Biden and Harris as potential presidents. Harris will say and do what needs to be said and done to be elected. Once in office her true colors will come out and you will see what a true socialist she is.

In addition to that, there’s about five other major things she’s handling, but I’ve asked her, the VP, today — because she’s the most qualified person to do it — to lead our efforts with Mexico and the Northern Triangle and the countries that help — are going to need help in stemming the movement of so many folks, stemming the migration to our southern border.

Biden assigned her to lead the government's efforts when it came to the border. Those are his own words. She did a terrible job, nothing got done and the Democrats just attempted to use the border bill to slide something like $80 billion to Ukraine and Israel.

I don't worry about presidents misspeaking. Everyone misspeaks, some more than others. My concern is how stupid she looks and sounds when she goes off script. She looks like an absolute fool when she does that. It's embarrassing and certainly not something that is going to gain the respect of other leaders worldwide. She can be asked a simple question about how young people are going to be able to afford houses in the future and she'll put together 500 words on how there is nothing more American than being American and being American is something that every American should have the chance to experience in America.

At least Biden and Trump are old and have an excuse. She has no excuse.

 

[White Whale]

MSNBC is even criticizing Kamala inability to answer questions.

 

[steveflynn]

Keep stupidly to yourself ? Do you mean stupidity ? Also, her approval rating right now are 50 50, why should anyone care what they were over one year ago ?

 

[SmilinDesperado]

Yes, he can. He is the executive branch of government by himself. Biden can close the southern border at any time. He can also order a nuclear strike if he sees fit. Why don't you check under the powers of the executive branch. Here is part of a list:

• Veto bills and sign bills.
• Represent our nation in talks with foreign countries.
• Act as Commander-in-Chief during a war.
• Call out troops to protect our nation against an attack.
• The War Powers Resolution allows the president to commit armed forces to military action for 60 days.
• Allow retaliatory military strikes against foreign nations.

There's this thing called "checks and balances". No, the president can't just do whatever he wants, because there is this other thing called reality that keeps him in check. If Congress really doesn't want him to do something, they can go to "war" with him on it. How often does that happen?
He can not unilaterally declare war. How do you think wars get funded? Do you think Biden is pulling out his checkbook?
Veto and signs bills? The bills have to make it through Congress before they reach him. And even if he did Veto a bill, Congress can override his Veto.
The President doesn't just make his own unilateral deals with foreign countries because he often times is going to need Congress to help fund or approve things, and it has to fall under our own laws and international law. The president is a lot more likely to do things that align with their party, not just make up their own shit. So despite what powers they theoretically have, REALITY is is that they don't have as much power as you're making it out to be.

It is an American issue. The Biden/Harris administration put us there. Don't run away from the blame. You talk as if Biden and Harris have no responsibility for the problems America is currently facing, and yet, you have no problem blaming Trump when things go wrong.

No, it isn't. Pick up a newspaper, or scroll through some economic news beyond America. Inflation is not an American issue, it is all over the world. You are sitting up here literally denying reality.
I have said nothing of the sort that everything was Trump's entire fault, or that Biden/Harris were perfect. YOU are making these blanket, black/white statements, repeatedly.
You asked me what the problem with Trump was, and I provided you a list. That doesn't mean that I think Biden was great.

...and yet Biden and the democrats have now weaponized the DOJ, FBI, and the Secret Service for their purpose. Why exactly would the DOJ agree to this? 2020 was the height of COVID and democrats took advantage of it to manipulate the results of the election. When Trump asked for an investigation and vote recount of specific states, he was quickly dismissed. Why?

BRUH....

You are talking about Biden and Harris?

Right. Gentle flower Trump is known for his meek demeanor and for being soft spoken...
You notice how you never actually answer anything?
You asked what the problem with Trump is....and yet, his OWN VP is not backing him. Why do so many people turn on him? Why do Republicans say he is unfit to lead? How is it that he is always the center of drama, but it's never his fault?

Biden removed the Trump sanctions on Iran which gave the Iranians billions of dollars. That money went to fund terrorism towards Israel. Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. Not to mention helping Russia in Ukraine. Iran is months away from building a nuclear weapon thanks to Joe Biden and his Iran policy, or lack thereof. Trump assassinated an Iranian general, Soleimani, who was a terrorist killing Americans and innocent people. See how much power presidents have.

And this is more bullshit. The US didn't "give" the Iranians billions of dollars. They had to RETURN the money that they illegally withheld from them. It wasn't our money.
You guys always tell these uneducated, half-assed stories about US foreign policy. "He was a terrorist". Oh? How did the story between Iran and America begin again? These little desert countries in the middle of nowhere just one day decided to fuck with the world's super power for no reason?
There won't be peace if you're ignorant of the history of that area, and/or aren't honest about it. It's the exact same bullshit that got us in Iraq and Afghanistan.

You don't say, but Biden and Harris do?

You vote for the cult of Trump. I am voting against the individual Trump, and for the Democratic party in this election.

Do I need to type in Spanish?
How does quoting Biden change the truth of what I said?
Biden can not "assign" anyone to fix the border. That is not reality. IT CAN NOT HAPPEN.
It doesn't matter what his old ass said on that front. Immigration can ONLY be fixed by Congress---LEGISLATION.
You guys love to call him delusional and out of his mind on everything else, but now, all of a sudden his words matter?

She is a terrible speaker, but she's better than Trump overall. Not just as an individual, but for the general direction and a return to normalcy. And for this election, that's all that matters.
And if we're talking about the respect of world leaders, lol Who respects Trump?
Shitlords like Bolsanaro, Kim Jong Eun, and Vic-ktor Orban. Fuck that.

That dude is delusional. I mean, to claim Trump wasn't given a fair opportunity to challenge the results... wow.

 

[ShadowRun]

Keep stupidly to yourself ? Do you mean stupidity ? Also, her approval rating right now are 50 50, why should anyone care what they were over one year ago ?

That’s what I was talked about you know she’s a VP for 4 years right ? So when I said she has historic low approval rating as VP you said no she didn’t . I posted links showing she did . Not sure what you’re carrying on about . What’s her VP rating compared to her presidential candidate approval rating ?

 

[SmilinDesperado]

That dude is delusional. I mean, to claim Trump wasn't given a fair opportunity to challenge the results... wow.

lol Yeah, holy fuck. "Trump was quickly dismissed"
60 failed lawsuits....rejected by judges he appointed and refused by a conservative Supreme court...but he wasn't given a fair shot..because...Deep state?

Shitlords like Bolsanaro, Kim Jong Eun, and Vic-ktor Orban. Fuck that.

I didn't say that she could single handedly fix the border on her own. He assigned her to lead the effort and the effort failed miserably. She just flat out failed at it because her and her cohorts couldn't help but try and shoe horn billions of dollars to other countries in the bill. That's a flat out failure on multiple fronts. Stop acting like she had zero to do with the border failures.

Normalcy as in the establishment working for themselves and against the American people? Yeah she's normal in that manner because she's clearly fully backed by the establishment. I thought liberals were supposed to be anti establishment but that has certainly been flipped on its head the last handful of years. Now you guys are clamoring to just get back to the status quo of establishment control by politicians who don't give two shits about Americans or their concerns.

They sure did respect Trump enough to not start up wars while he was in office. As soon as Biden took office, other countries started a bunch of shit with each other because his own words made him look weak on that front. Trump is about as anti war as it gets but also seems crazy enough that other countries aren't going to attempt to call that bluff.
