Something is wrong with this split-screen picture. On one side, former president Donald Trump rants about mass deportations and claims to have stopped “wars with France,” after being described by his longest-serving White House chief of staff as a literal fascist. On the other side, commentators debate whether Vice President Kamala Harris performed well enough at a CNN town hall to “close the deal.”
…
Let’s review: First, Harris was criticized for not doing enough interviews — so she did multiple interviews, including with nontraditional media. She was criticized for not doing hostile interviews — so she went toe to toe with Bret Baier of Fox News. She was criticized as being comfortable only at scripted rallies — so she did unscripted events, such as the town hall on Wednesday. Along the way, she wiped the floor with Trump during their one televised debate.
Trump, meanwhile, stands before his MAGA crowds and spews nonstop lies, ominous threats, impossible promises and utter gibberish. His rhetoric is dismissed, or looked past, without first being interrogated.
Her supporters on the lemmyverse keep saying that’s what’s she’s doing…
When you sign up for a ml account, is there a test you have to take where all the correct answers are opposite of reality?
Some people (like me) just connect to lemmy the first time and end up on .ml without choosing it. I have no recollection of being given a choice.
I mean when I made an account there was a massive list of instances and I had to choose one.
Did you do some research or did you just click one?
I actually dont remember. I was just trying to figure it out. Maybe I did make an uninformed pick someplace.
Literally nobody is saying or thinking that
That’s too bad; that was the only thing left that could convince me to vote for her.
I haven’t seen anyone here try to convince you of anything aside from the fact that your attempts to convince other people about political shitposts isn’t working out.
And if a frog had wings it wouldn’t bump its ass when it jumps.
