Not a good look by those who vetted him. A weird wolf in sheep's clothing. The guy makes it easy to dislike him and his lies. Gives another glimpse into who he is.
A mentor taught me it's easy to have optimism when things look good. Anybody can do that. It takes special effort from special people to be optimistic when things are bad.I hope you are right. But it is precariously too close for any comfort.
Like her policies, too?Kamala secured my vote with that speech last night. She’s improved light years from four years ago and that was her greatest speech ever. Patriotic and optimistic vision for the future of our country.
I’m ready to move on from Trump. He’s the symbol of hate and division and I’m hoping the entire MAGA movement will die out. It’s time for the Republican Party to regain their sanity once again.
That is normally me. Nickname among close friends is "Tigger.". Maybe it's from getting older. But you and your mentor are right.A mentor taught me it's easy to have optimism when things look good.

He was a unique man. A realist who chose faith and positive thinking no matter the circumstances.
I'm curious to hear which specific policies she outlined in the speech that clinched it for you. Patriotic and optimistic doesn't put money in the pocket or make the country saferKamala secured my vote with that speech last night.

People have always voted against the other candidate. People couldn't stand Hillary by 2016. People voted against her. That's how Trump won.Nope but that is what is on display by many on this board. We have asked for weeks to provide policies as to your affection to KH. All we get is “ we hate Trump”.
So the assumption is as mentioned on this tweet.
This is true.People have always voted against the other candidate. People couldn't stand Hillary by 2016. People voted against her. That's how Trump won.
It is indeed a double edged sword. A large plurality of voters on the right were looking for a non establishment candidate to shake things up. Trump was the only one to answer the call. But the very things that made him exactly what those voters were looking for were liabilities with the wider public. It has been a delicate balancing act. It is not a coincidence that Trump improves in the polls when he tones down his personality and focuses on the issues. Whether or not he can do that consistently down the home stretch towards November will decide if he wins or not.It's not me you have to convince. Too much of the populace is turned off by him. You can kick and scream all you want but it's the obvious truth. That's a him problem. If you want to win public office don't make the majority of the electorate dislike you .
Once the underlying mechanism is in place, anything is possible.The 1% stock buyback tax (another horrible policy idea) has already been proposed to be increased by several multiples already
You sure about that, pretty sure my 20 years of parenting a child with a chronic disease gives insight. Do you have a child with a disease/special needs? Not sure this is wheelhouse topic you want to get into and deem “totally normal” because it’s not. It’s abuse.Please keep highlighting this as it shows that you have no idea of what you’re talking about. Maybe read a book instead of twitter.
Everyone who isn't hard left would be ecstatic if she was a moderate, but unfortunately she isn't even close.I'm curious to hear which specific policies she outlined in the speech that clinched it for you. Patriotic and optimistic doesn't put money in the pocket or make the country safer

You are kidding. No way was it obvious he had something wrong with him. He couldn’t read a teleprompter. He couldn’t find his way off a stage. He **** himself. He couldn’t hold a press conference. And he couldn’t talk.lol. it was only "apparent" to you after the debate because the media stopped actively lying to you about it. not that you or them discovered some new, objective truth about the state of his health.
the truth was out there, available to your own eyes for YEARS. but instead of believing your own eyes, you let yourself believe obvious, constant lies that he was sharp as a tack.
if he really really deteriorating so fast where the media went from calling him sharp as a tack one day, to no longer healthy the next, it would be impossible to expect him to last 6 months.
like seriously, you really believed he was capable of being president for 4.5 more years one day, to he wasn't capable of being president the next 4.5 years in a DAY, that should raise some serious red flags about 6 months.
but you actively participate in the lie because you will do ANYTHING to beat Trump. buy whatever lies they need to sell, buy whatever politician they give you after you voted for another, buy that somehow Trump is the ONLY problem in this country worth addressing.
Again, what specific policies did she put out there? Is it the wealth confiscation, govt price controls, expanded wars, increased spending? Just trying to figure out how she is attractive in any way regardless of who she is running againstUnder the Biden/Harris administration, stocks are near record highs, our GDP and net wealth are the highest it’s ever been. Inflation is under 3% now. Wage increases have outpaced inflation for the last year. American productivity has boomed post COVID.
In fact, the stock boom allowed my wife and I to put a significant down payment on a home.
I’m done with Trump and MAGA. He’s a pathological liar who’ll say and do anything for a vote. According to Trump, everything is terrible if he doesn’t win, but great if he does. Trump is full of sh*t. It’s always about Donald. He puts himself and his interests over our nation. He’s the epitome of hate and division. It’s time to move on as a nation.
