Tell these Americans they’re not in a war zone.

The point is, there isn't an active war the US is engaged in. The "police action" those troops are in is not a "war" so technically Harris told the truth.

Well, the US was not technically at war with North Vietnam. But I bet the 58,000 American casualties would beg to differ with Madame VP about technical definitions of a “war” zone.

Yeah, this pretty ridiculous of an evasion. We haven't technically fought a way since WWII, mostly because we don't want the people to have a say in matters of war.

Now if you start asking why we spend as many billions on our military as we do when we haven't been in a war for 80 years, then you should really avoid convertibles.

I guess if you want to argue the generalities of "the US is not at war' with "they are eating our pets, our cats and dogs" then have at it. the former is technically true. the latter is not only not true, but is also a massive racism dog whistle.

Personally, I think its a bigger deal to have politicians lying about matters of war and peace than about Haitian cuisine. In part because the lies about war are ongoing and bipartisan, while not wanting Haitians in their neighborhoods is also bipartisan and people are only in a huff because its an election season.

Personally I think it's a huge deal that a politican that is runningH for the highest elected office in the US claims to be trying to unite the nation when he continually tries to encourage bigotry within the US.

- He encouraged anti-Semites in Charlottesville
- He had a 40 year record of anti-Black bigotry, hatred, and outright racism
- He is clearly a sexist who has sexually assaulted multiple women, one of which he was legally sanctioned for in court. he has proclaimed his sexism multiple times on record and he has activcely worked to overturn women's rights while in office
- He has routinely promoted anti-Latino rhetoric and actively worked against Latino rights
- He has routinely spouted anti-Asian rhetoric and sentiments and has encouraged violence against Asians
- He has made anti-Palestinian remarks and essentially demeaned them with racist comments

So, is it any surprise that he would make racist comments about Haitians and frame them for actions they didn't commit, only for political gain? He's using them as a campaign stunt and he doesn't care that he's unleashed violence and hatred against Haitian Americans just as a political gambit. And once he was (yet again) proven wrong, he did not apologize or try to stem the violence, he doubled down and insisted that the comment that was completely fabricated and fictitious was truthful. The senility has completely divorced this man from reality, but some people still want him to be commander-in-chief and have access to the nuclear codes.

Plus, the person who instigate all of this, Trump's running mate, JD Vance has said that he has no qualms about lying and conjuring up divisive and abusive stories if he thinks it will help them win the election. Why do we want to elect people who believe that their being elected to office is more important than the health, jobs, and lives of the people that they would be representing?

He isn't wrong. the mark of a good leader is execution by the whole team. By that metric, Harris is *crushing* this campaign and Trump, despite mounting it for almost 4 years, is flagging bigly.
