Really? Thanks Captain Obvious. 

 

 

He seemed to think he was... 2 weeks before he quit.

 

 

 

You seem to have misunderstood my post. Read it again.

 

Harris could have performed as badly as Biden did and people like you would still be saying she was great. Because that's what they were saying about Biden. It's leftist gaslighting. Par for the course.  

 

The only reason some people are so excited about Harris' performance is because expectations were so low. 

 

Let’s ignore your imaginative ramblings and stick to facts.

 

Harris did not perform badly. 

 

Hence Trump supporters, both foreign and domestic, dreaming up an alternative reality to the very one sided debate that took place.

 

Oh and nothing at all to do with Biden.

On ABC.. the have short written clips added at every turn.. Yet not a one of them said bad about Harris.. not a one fact checked what she said.... Yet, at every one about Trump.. fat checks.. true what he said but needs context.. or no comment at all except needs context. Totally biased against Trump.... Although you may not see it that way. But even by doing this, they are changing some voters to want Harris.. Not because she is better. But because they are playing on the subconscious that nothing bad said about her and all bad or nothing good said about Trump. 

I saw it all and my only thought was that it was geared to make Harris look good.. Even when she got off topic they did not stop her... Even when she did not answer the question and instead strayed to something else as her answer she was not questioned more. You Dems think she won... Maybe she did with the help of ABC. But it does not change the fact that she has no plan... she has no idea what to do about economy and actually tried to bribe votes by saying she wants to give all parents extra money. She has no idea about international relations. She avoided answering about how to stop the war. Only happily saying her party supplied weapons for defense of Israel... forgetting that she the weapons sent to Ukraine were used to attack inside Russia.. She is going to get the US into a war and poverty faster than Trump would. But is ok... i do not care. i will not be voting because they do not have a (NONE OF THE ABOVE) option on a voting card. And i am not in USA anymore. I just hope her lack of knowing how to handle other leaders does not bring parts of the war she will make into Thailand

You’ve reached the talking to yourself stage.

If that's true, get used to saying President Harris.

 

He entered office with 4.8% UE and a positive GDP. He left office with 6.8% UE and a Recession.

 

Oh, and the "Commander-in-Chief" claimed (actually, lied) that he wasn't responsible for dealing with the Insurrection on 6 January. He sat on his fat arse for 187 minutes when he was asked to send National Guard troops to the Capitol. He oft says the lie that the Speaker is responsible, or the Mayor of DC, when for a Federal Building it is the President.

 

She, OTOH, entered office with a Recession and 6.8% UE, and currently US GDP is outperforming all OECD nations and UE is ~4%.

 

Of course he 'has a plan', or at least 'a concept of a plan', which 'we will release shortly'.....just like his health plan when he had 4 years in office and an (R) House and Senate for the first 2 years.  And 'next week' is probably Infrastructure Week.

 

He left office in the middle of the Covid crisis but you continue to cite the late 2020 economic numbers as if they were Trump's fault! 

 

The J6 National Guard issue is not resolved. The "Speaker" is at least partially responsible for security at the Capitol (she admitted as much in her daughter's VDO in her car) and rejected an offer of supplementary NG security days before the riot. Despite several warnings, security at the Capitol was even llower than normal on the day - why was that??

 

The Covid Recession caused the 2020 slump, followed by a corresponding (relative) rebound but the continued post Covid overspending by the Democrats drove inflation even higher, finally necessitating higher interest rates which make buying and borrowing difficult. The US jobs numbers have recently been seen to be erroneous/manipulated and in the USA UE is already rising again as jobs start to disappear.

 

Well done Biden/Harris.

Looks like the fact checkers at CBS News were quite busy swatting down all the falsehoods Trump put forward at the debate:

 

Fact checking debate claims from Trump and Harris' 2024 presidential face-off

False: Trump claims "millions and millions of people" are "pouring into our country monthly"

...

False:  Trump claims "they had the highest inflation perhaps in the history of our country" 

...

False: Trump claims Walz says "execution after birth" of babies "is okay."

 

(more)

 

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-harris-abc-debate-fact-check/

 

In CBS' list linked above, four major falsehoods by Trump. And regarding Harris' remarks, one rated inconclusive and the other rated "Partially true, needs context."

Yes it is and always has been:

 

“The D.C National Guard was formed in 1802 by President Thomas Jefferson to defend the newly created District of Columbia. As such, the Commanding General of the D.C. National Guard is subordinate solely to the President of the United States.  This authority to activate the D.C. National Guard has been delegated, by the President, to the Secretary of Defense and further delegated to the Secretary of the Army.  The D.C. National Guard is the only National Guard unit, out of all of the 54 states and territories, which reports only to the President. “

What is scary is that his followers will believe anything he says. But maybe after this performance, they will see the light.

Well, first of all, it's important to remind the former president you're not running against Joe Biden, you're running against me

 

I want to respond to that, though. I want to just respond briefly. Clearly, I am not Joe Biden, and I am certainly not Donald Trump. And what I do offer is a new generation of leadership for our country.

[spidermike007]

Harris clearly won the debate as she came across as being both intelligent and coherent, and Trump's dilly about the dog smorgasbord in Ohio was classic. That was one for the books and I think even people on the fence will look at that and say, whoa, I really didn't think he was quite that insane!

 

The real question though is will it make a difference? Trump supporters will not budge from their position, it doesn't matter what he says or does, it doesn't matter whether he loses or wins the debate, it doesn't matter whether or not he's a felon, or a rapist. The real question is the independents. Will Harris be able to move the independents enough to create a significant margin, and be able to win over both the electorate and the useless Electoral College? That is the big question.

Biden was never the Democratic candidate for this election - Fact.

 

The Democratic candidate was adopted at the Democratic Party Convention, her name is Kamala Harris. - Fact.

 

Prior to the Democratic Convention there was no Democratic candidate for this election - Fact.

 

Maybe somebody should have told Joe before that great debate.

Genuine question…... what noteworthy accomplishments has any VP achieved?

 

Apart from Pence who to be fair avoided being hanged…..quite an accomplishment in anyone’s book.

Not many, if at all. The danger with Harris is that she will likely continue Biden's IMO failed policies of war, war and more war.

IMO opinion it was as "contentious" as watching a cat sleeping. Boring more like. It was so gripping I didn't even bother watching and did something more useful, while just listening to it, just in case something did happen. Conversely, during the Biden debate I was virtually glued to the TV.

 

Actually it was quite informative -seems from his facial expressions trump truly believe the stuff he articulates - proves trump is actually delusional.. Personally love to know who primarily feeds him the BS. Surely anyone who was undecided will now go for Harris.

I didn't think she performed badly, but that does not mean she performed well.

Trump behaved himself more than expected.

 

On the whole it was a boring debate, no fire, no crashes, no excitement, no passion, just blah.

I can't stand Harris, but I have not excoriated her on this thread, unlike those that hate Trump, without, IMO, justification. He didn't shine, but neither was he a train wreck.

In your wet dreams. I doubt a single decided voter will have changed their mind and the undecided will remain thus.

She is no JFK when it comes to public speaking.

Would you prefer it if he didn't believe what he was saying? When it comes to parroting lines I think that belongs to Harris. As genuine as a British royal souvenir made in China.

Two very poor candidates. 

Trump's ego is out of control and Republicans who picked him in the primaries paid little attention to the fact that he needs to win a general election.

Harris was flatly rejected by Dems when she ran for the Dem candidacy in 2019. She has no noteworthy accomplishments to show from her time as VP and is widely disliked in her own party.

Nikki Haley would have wiped the floor with Harris tonight and likely in a GE too.

Dark times ahead in the US which is bad news for the rest of us.

You may be right about Halley. I remember MAGA posters bragging about it, when she was beaten in the primaries, naively thinking it was bothering liberal-leaning folks! 😃
