I won't vote for either candidate but I almost think Trump deserves to win because she sucks so bad. UGH.
UGH indeed. Exit polls are pointing to a Harris win. I am an independent, but want someone competent in the office. This does not bode well.
She's run a nearly flawless campaign in the last 3 months from basically a standing start. No slip ups and terrible optics "deplorables" or "clinging to guns" comments. No scandals of her own. She nailed the VP pick. She nailed the debate. She did great on Fox News. She's out campaigning in force in every swing state and pushing GOTV. She's published detailed policy positions. What more do you want from her? And please tell us where the mythical politician who is "competent" and electable and experienced might be?
Then why is she bombing the townhalls and interviews? CNN is aghast.
Which ones? Citation please.

For the second day in a row - 13 days before the election - no rallies, no appearances. Just prepping for short sit-down interviews.
I hate to be the one to put this out there, but - I think she's thrown in the towel. How else to read this?
OP, your enthusiasm is appreciated, but if the candidate doesn't have it, how can we?
This week:
Vice President Kamala Harris and former Rep. Liz Cheney on Monday wrapped up a series of moderated conversations in Wisconsin, where they continued to make the case that Donald Trump is unfit for the presidency.
On Tuesday, she will record an interview with NBC’s Hallie Jackson at 3:40 p.m. ET in Washington, D.C. At 4:30 p.m., the Democratic nominee will tape an interview with Telemundo’s Julio Vaqueiro.
Harris will travel to Pennsylvania on Wednesday and participate in a CNN Town Hall event in Chester Township, just outside of the Philadelphia metropolitan area.
On Thursday, the vice president will be in Georgia for a campaign rally, joined by former President Barack Obama
Harris is expected to visit Texas on Friday to attend a campaign event in Houston focusing on abortion rights and rally with Rep. Colin Allred, D-Texas plus recording Berne Brown’s podcast.
Ok, so that’s like one event per travel day, with the exception of the last day, where she does 2 events.
That’s not nearly enough. He’s doing 2-3 travel events a day, with interviews in between.
She’s acting like she’s not really interested in winning. I don’t understand it, or her motivation here.
It’s worrisome.
Everything that I have read about Harris’s management style as Veep indicates someone who is very high maintenance. This is most likely an intentional schedule either requested by her or decided by her team to maximize her performance and limit her exposure. Effectively to stage manage her, which has been a strong theme of her campaign.
She is a pampered childless California liberal- what else do you expect?
I mean yes. I’m a mom and lawyer and it is jarring to me that she never married until she was 50 and also never had kids but thinks she can relate to what most families go through. She is not qualified to talk to me about childcare or managing a household with groceries or the impact of anything on our schools or the issues of balancing work and family or the struggling of saving for college. And her choice of husband is questionable. We all know why. So I literally cannot relate to her as a women. She has as much insight into my life as a 15 year old or my 85 year old mother in law who went from her parents home to her husbands and never had a job. I wouldn’t elect a 15 year old or my MIL. And in the areas where she should be shining, like her amazing prosecutorial skills of verbal persuasion, she is a spectacular failure! She is such a mess.
SO you are not voting, right? Because by this logic, Trump doesn't can't speak to you either.
Pretty sure he has 5 kids.
And never once changed a diaper (except his own) or helped raise those kids in any fashion. I'm sure he KNOWS and RELATES to what most families go through. You know, like all of us billionaires who only worked for their parents' businesses and reality tv programming before getting into politics.
How the hell do you know what involvement Trump had in his kids' lives?
Kamala was a piece of work last night on CNN - mentioning multiple times what it was like to "raise children." Lady, you became a step mother when they were in their teens. Please do no insult those of us who were in the trenches from Day One. Kamala did not "raise children."

She could have come up with all kinds of examples of mistakes of Biden’s that she would have done differently, from EO on immigration to the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. By saying she wouldn’t change anything, she lost to Trump. You can see it in the subsequent shift in the polls.
That may be your truth.
But it is not my truth.

It's amazing that someone like Bezos would care, which tells you how completely horrible the country would be for the rest of us if Trump wins.
Can say one thing, I'm scaling backy Amazon ordering if Bezos is such a coward and / or secretly fascist.
Amazon's big source of profit is govt cloud contracts, not online item sales.
