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.
Kamala isn’t really standing for anything, is trying to be too safe, and I don’t think it’s going too work to well
She stands for a lot of things, this exact kind of meaningless bullshit is the fucking problem
[What the fuck are you talking about?] (https://kamalaharris.com/issues)
This is exactly the issue that the post is about
There is not a single policy included in this two paragraph long statement.
It’s the most transparent Politician Speak, saying an earful while telling you absolutely nothing.
If you could have bothered to read a few lines more, there’s an entire 76-page PDF attached outlining plans and goals.
Now I’m not asking you to read the whole thing, but you’re being disingenuous.
How much of it is more fluff like this?
If you’d like to single out the policies you think are meaningful, I’ll happily pick through that chapter. But if the first two paragraphs are empty pablum, I’m not wasting my time with the next fifty.
Great idea. Have a good day.
And what doesTrump stands for? Let’s see. Revenge against anyone who he doesn’t like, threatens political opponents with military action, across the board tariffs that will result in retaliation from other countries, more tax cuts for the rich,… Oh and Lots of fear mongering.
He is dangerous.
I don’t think he is going to work too well.
Right but it’s not about him. You can’t point out how the sociopath with cult of sycophants is a problem cause that is obvious to those of us that care.
To those that don’t it’s just mud slinging that doesn’t answer the fact they don’t like her policies.
It won’t work to just not be the other, you got to be preferable. I thought this was learned in 2016 but I see a lot this repeating itself.
When someone brings up they don’t like Harris’ policies it’s not enough to shout back the other guy is obviously worse. It doesn’t answer the point. And people are not that rational.
I’m pretty sure a lot of people who helped run Hillary’s campaign are also helping to run Kamala’s. They don’t learn lol.
