Neither does Joe Asthma. I guess that is why he hid at his beach house and did not bother to attend the ceremony.

Now, zero for infinity plus four. Although I do agree, Walz WILL come tumbling down. Down to defeat after Vance exposes his totalitarian beliefs and BS.

...and your evidence to back up this assertion is what, exactly?

Because the VP pick is generally campaigning on behalf of the top of the ticket. Not sitting and holding her hand and making sure she doesn't mess up too badly. It is a terrible look, generally only one that happens when the media is running puff pieces and not trying to commit journalism. It makes Harris look weak.

What other reason could there be? CNN will be a warm tongue bath of an interview anyway. It will be pre recorded and edited and massaged. So why does she need a White Man beside her, I thought she was a strong independent WOC.

Wrong again! What does that make you now, zero for infinity plus one?

At the risk of sounding too "American", can I plead the Fifth?

Sorry chum, none of the three are the United States. Cost of education there is insane. Keep trying though. Keep up your perfect score of zero for..... how many now? I can't recall.

She didn't have to learn, she was taken on board by Biden as a favour owed to James Clyburn. Seems she hasn't done much to educate herself while VP either. Her staff retention rate is abysmal, she has face planted at any jobs she has been tasked with, and achieved the remarkable feat of being even less popular than Biden.

If you care to know, I finished my pre and post graduate degrees in two different countries. And now, ironically, live in a third. Could you rephrase your question in... the form of a question?

I am enjoying your random attempts at grammar, capitalization, and the like. Please carry on. Oh, and thank you for the compliment that I am capable of sense. A pity that Harris seems not to be.

It means that IF she can prepare notes to read, and IF she knows the questions/subject in advance, she can sound serious and intelligent. However, a debate is the opposite. She will have to answer, not just read pointed talking points. And there is NO evidence she is capable.

"Vice President Harris. You said on more than one occasion that COVID took the lives of more than 220 MILLION Americans. Can you tell us where and how those 220 million victims were laid to rest?" No wonder she wanted to take notes to the debate. Like taking your textbooks to a final exam.

Biden has set the record for vacation days as President. If he even tried to swing a golf club he would probably dislocate his shoulder. Also the record for fewest interviews and press conferences. It is telling that the other half of the "Biden-Harris Administration" is following his lead.

Sure. Any time I quote polls, it is generally Real Clear Politics polling average. They tend to be accurate. https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2024/trump-vs-harris

It can be a winning strategy....IF the corporate media lets her get away with it. Any journalist worth his/her salt should be apoplectic about it though. It says a lot about the sad state of journalism in America that they acquiese instead of making it THE story. Latest national polling shows her up by 1.7%, which means a loss in the election. Trump still ahead in 5 of 7 swing states. Not much of a convention bump it seems.

Maybe she will want Uncle Tim to hold her hand during the debate too? Pathetic. Forty days until doing a single interview on a completely friendly network. I wonder if CNN will provide her (and Tim) with the questions in advance?

Yeah, totally true. We need to find the time to discuss the Trump hush money case. It has been ignored and covered up for too long. Maybe you could be the first to start a separate thread about it, and not derail this one?

Kamala explains DEI. If this is the best she has, then Trump wins in a landslide.

GovSpeak is insidious. I get sick of hearing how the government will "ask" people to pay more in taxes, when they really mean that they will force people to pay more taxes at the point of a gun and threat of imprisonment if necessary. This is the same.

She has a platform? Care to share a link to it?

If she learned debating from Joe Biden, then God help her. Her record in congress and delivering the tie breaking votes in the Senate will haunt her. You are right, she HAS learned her lesson. She has learned that she has no skills in extemporaneous communication, and no skills at debate.

Keep up the deflecting my friend. And the xenophobia. Both are good looks for you. I have never hidden where I am from or where I live. Why are you so obsessed? It makes you sound insecure. Now back to the topic. Where is your evidence that Kamala is anything other than a mediocre debater?

Hey, maybe Kamala can just debate against herself...

...and this has what exactly to do with the topic of the debate/debates? More deflection and dissembling. Trump has debated better, smarter, and more experienced politicians than Kamala and acquited himself well. Kamala, by contrast, has done very little except get humbled by a member of Congress from Hawaii. Just curious, can you cite any of her debate performances that strike you as particularly skilful and erudite?
