“During a 2020 presidential debate, Joe Biden got backed into promising a female running mate, and Harris — who had all but called Biden a racist during her own failed campaign — was right there, willing to forgive and forget, if not acknowledge that she never believed what she'd said in the first place.

Jill Biden has reportedly never forgiven her. Does anyone really think that she and Joe, still smarting over his forced ouster, want Harris to win?

The Bidens, the billionaire class and rational voters everywhere all know that Trump isn't going to unleash the military on U.S. citizens, or 'be a dictator on day one', or prosecute his political enemies.

Hell — Trump even said he'd consider pardoning Hunter Biden if elected!”


You can’t even link your stupid screed but cut and paste to suggest the NYT hates Harris.

If you didn’t lie, you’d never have a thing to say about anything. It’s a choice, I guess.

It’s close because Trump can be divisive and the media hates him and has been trashing him for the last 8 years. He is strong on all the issues that matter to most Americans- the economy, inflation, national security, the border, crime, and energy independence/cost. Other than abortion (which admittedly gets her some votes), what is her position or policy on these issues? I’ve listened to her speak, many times, and for the life of me, I can’t figure out what she is saying, other than she is not Trump.


Then maybe you should take your finger out of your ears and read a newspaper. Her immigration and economic policies are not going to be so draconian they destabilize our market. Elon said all American will need to “belt-tighten” because it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better. It’s all laid out.



Dictator Trump
King Trump

You forgot eliminating the fillisbuster. That alone should disqualify her. That people can't see how antithetical that is to represesentative government just floors me.


That you could claim that a supermajority requirement that appears nowhere in the Constitution is antithetical to representative government just floor me.

The filibuster is a made-up anti-democratic parliamentary rule that exacerbates the anti-democratic structure of the Senate . If you want to try to defend it feel free but to defend on ground of representative democracy is nuts.

(Unless of course the only people who count in your mind are the people of Wyoming, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, etc, which probably is the case so never mind)


You should do a little research into how true democracy deteriorates justice around the world. There is a good reason for a constitutional democracy in the US, rather than a pure democracy. Pure democracy is basically mob rule. And yes, I do care about the people in those states. The filibuster actually protects the rights of the minority, which is an important element of our constitutional democracy. You seem to think the rights of certain people--like those in the West--don't matter. I assume it's because you don't understand and are an idealogue. Don't forget, a foolish constistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.

only 35% of the US working population have college degrees.

the educated elite assume that the working class is content with overwhelming immigration keeping low wages and no health care.

how dare they want a living wage.

If your business can't pay a livable wage, then your business is a failure. That's how capitalism works.

If you base your business on workers who aren't making a living wage because as illegal immigrants, they have no rights or are afraid to assert them, that's a bad business plan.

but to democrats that is their destiny, they should have gone to Yale.


This is so backwards. It’s democrats who fight for livable wages, worker safety and rights, and affordable housing and healthcare.

It’s republicans who want businesses to deregulate everything so corporations can treat their workers as bad as they want to to maximize profit for shareholders.


That is simply not true.

I mean I don’t? First of all I think you have a very blinkered view if you thino name calling and hatred only goes one way but second of all of someone calls me Nazi that doesn’t make me want to vote a certain way.


+1. I’ve been called a communist, I’ve been mocked, I’ve been treated as unintelligent when my background and analytical abilities are always assessed as better than those of the R men screaming their insults. That’s life. I mean, not in an ideal world, but they are who they are. The insults they use devastate them when returned.

I don't know how Harris supports can gnash their teeth was straight face over this "but he's going to jail dissenters garbage." What do they think the left has done for the last four years? Why did Bannon go to jail for four years, while no other person in comtempt of congress has? They have been trying to jail dissenters this entire time. It's literally projection on their part. It's mind boggling to me.

Another woman voter and I agree with this.

Would love to see a woman president, and soon, but Kamala ain't it.


Both you and the quoted woman are envious of women with superior work histories and academic credentials.

Academic credentials? Link please? I am Ph.D. college professor with far more "credentials." Harris does not have credentials. You cannot remotely debate this.

Emerson would have LOVED Donald!

I’m so sorry. Are you arguing that proportional representation by other legislative elements is unfair to voters in Cheyenne?

I do admire the slight glow up your arguments have these days. You or your many twins were right here in 2016 bragging about how the land itself, not its people, had rights. I was pretty shocked that Jeff left this Fairfax Underground slurry up, post after post - he eventually admitted that every Republican argument was tantamount to this kind of anti democratic irrationality, so if he struck lies there’s be no “both sides” representation here at all.

You’re free to look up HRC and Harris as far as degrees and positions; Google is there for everyone. Want to link up yours?

I don't know anything about Fairfax Underground, and what you're saying about my "many twins," I don't know what that means. I did have an identical twin sister who died of cancer as a teenager. Does that count? And I don't argue that land has rights--I saw that on Yellowstone--is that what you're thinking of ? In any event, I am not expert, I am student at Georgetown with some in-depth studies into justice and peace studies, and was sharing my understanding of pure democracy. It has caused violence when imposed on countries around the world. I don't think the US would benefit from adopting it here. I do believe that minority groups need to be represented.

Hear me out, Trump is the brick through the storm window. Anyone who was or is part of the status quo (experts, media, govt. etc etc) has lost a lot of credibility. A Trump voter simply does not trust the govt. They do not trust the media industry, they do not trust the legal system.

They see democrats using the legal system to get revenge on Trump.


Trump's a proven pathological liar and con man. I trust him even less than I trust the government.


This isn’t about what you think or believe. You’re not understanding that the entity that’s has proven Trump a liar is the very entity Trump supporters do not trust.


Yes. There is a loss of trust in almost all institutions. When this happens, weird and volatile political and social movements start.

How do we rebuild trust in our institutions?


Parti of it is not taking the above as an article of faith.

For those criminals who were ultimately apprehended for their January 6 activities, weren’t there a large proportion with warrants and convictions? So wouldn’t there be a particular investment in fellow Republicans of a criminal bent deciding that the uh whole system was out of order?

They can and will, with a straight face and outrageous attitude. It’s bizarre!

Her much older, married boyfriend helped her, from the start.

It’s really ridiculous that these leftists insist that everyone participates in their fantasy about KH and her life/achievements.

The trolls and Russians are out in force today. The lies about VP Harris are beyond belief. Everyone must be seeing that Trump is LOSING.

Huh? Trump will shut down illegal immigration. Kamala won’t. This is pretty simple. Let’s see what the voters prefer.


Yes, Kamala and Democrats are weak on the border and want unsustainable levels of immigration coming into the country. I read a summary of the border bill she wants to sign, and it is very weak. It just gives more money to process more illegal immigrants into the country. The Democrats are for open borders and I don’t want massive numbers of immigrants coming into my community. That’s why I voted for Trump.
