Abortion is definitely one of the worst atrocities against humanity and this is something Democrats should think about is you’re killing a potential further voter for you.

Counterpoint: Abortion is not really anybody else's business, beyond the mother and her doctor, and potential Democratic votes aren't more important than the life of the mother or her right to make her own healthcare decisions.

What do I think? I think Trump has done numerous hostile interviews over the last 8 years. In fact, what you saw tonight is what Trump has powered through from the very night he went down the escalator and its never let up since. Tonight was the VERY FIRST TIME Kamala has ever been somewhat held to the fire by anyone in the media, and she bombed.

It's blatantly obvious what her/their "plan" is: It's NOT "Here, let me explain who I am, how I think about things, and my vision", rather, its "I'm not Trump so vote for me". Period.

And frankly, based on years of never ever hearing Libs discuss Trumps policies (because they are better), its always been about personality ONLY. Kamala is banking her entire presidency on "I'M NOT TRUMP, VOTE FOR ME". Pretty lame, but that's pretty much all any lib I've ever talked to cared about so who knows, it might work. Still lame though.

They didn't have time to let Kamala talk about who she is, or what her plans are. Bret didn't even let her finish a sentence before interrupting.

Call it what you want but it comes down to different rules ( bad rules) lead to what we have had the past 3+ years. A invasion at our southern border. No denying that…Trump knows you don’t have to get congress to pass a law to protect us from a invasion. To bad Biden and Harris are ignorant of that fact.. The presidents no. 1 job is to protect the United States from foreign aggression or invasion . Where has Biden been on that very serious and potentially dangerous issue. AWOL… Asleep at the wheel.. what you call separating children from their parents is ridiculous, no telling how many children he may have saved from being trafficked into prostitution or slave labor. Unlike Trump, Biden didn’t vet anybody and because of him and Harris many children are now at the mercy of traffickers . But maybe Kamala’s plan to buy the black vote for $20,000 for only blacks will work for her. She will never get it passed though congress if it’s even legal , sounds like it may be racist..

What Trump was doing, separating families, was essentially crimes against humanity. Also AWOL doesn't stand for "asleep at the wheel." It's an acronym for "absent without leave" ("leave" being the military term for time off, or permission to leave).

And even though the Trump Administration stopped separating families in 2018, there are still 1,000 children who cannot be reunited with their parents because Trump didn't have CBP create or keep the necessary records for those kids.

Vice President Kamala Harris sat down with Fox News' Bret Baier for about 25 minutes, mostly focusing on the border. It's up on FNC's YouTube channel

youtu.be/80DaR2CVNNk?si=fNCAT36kweDuDJ6s

Maybe Bret was expecting quicker answers from Kamala, as he kept talking over her every time she spoke. Thankfully, she didn't scold him with "I'm talking."

Anyway, it was a pretty short interview, and I wonder if they'll have her back before the election to dig deeper. I doubt Trump would do anything like that, maybe an interview on MSNBC, since he threw a fit when "60 Minutes" asked him a mildly difficult question back in '20.

What do you think?

It's beyond laughable that the Democrats, AND HARRIS SPECIFICALLY, hid Biden's mental and physical limitations from the public for 4 full years and now suddenly health and medical records are important to Democrats.

How do you even do this a straight face?

Same thing with the border. For 3.5 years Biden/Harris let the invasion happen, even encouraging it, then right before the election they pretend its important to them.

How do you even do this with a straight face?

The only explanation is Harris thinks the public is stupid enough to fall for it and given what you posted, it obviously works on some.

The president just upholds the laws. Congress writes those laws, and the president signs the laws. But at no point does the president get to make up his or her own laws. If Republicans wanted borders closed, they could have come up with a law to close it. And recently, when Republicans negotiated with Democrats to pass a law to fix the jam at the border, Trump called and told them to kill it. How do you even blame that on Biden and Harris? Oh right, because you're just trolling. Good job.

Anyway, back to the topic of the thread: Soufiehere's thought that it could be VD is an interesting angle on this, and would totally be an embarrassing finding, and might help explain Melania's reluctance to help Donald on the campaign, among other things.

Any angle( or lie) that comes out of a democrats mouth is from pure desperation. I guess you forgot that Biden did make up his own law when he did away the 96 executive orders that were keeping our border safe and than did very little vetting to the people coming in illegally. There are several terrorists somewhere in our country just waiting to attack and kill Americans. Like the isis-k terrorist caught planning a Election Day massacre, he was unvetted by the Biden administration….And six democrats voted against that ridiculous bill that you think would have stopped the invasion but it wouldn’t have stopped it, only let more in… and now Biden’s DOJ is sueing Va. for following the law and purging non citizens off the voter rolls, but it seems the democrats want the votes from non-citizens to count if they vote for a democrat.. nothing wrong with Trump health. He’s out there everyday and night in front of crowds and nobody sees anything with Trump like what Joe is suffering through… Kamala is the one hiding from real interviews from someone that doesn’t have their head up her a**… democrats are so scared and desperate that they are going to lose this election( which they should) that they will say anything that comes to their mind… did Kamala mention yet about her plan to put a moratorium on how many children a family can have. and a mandatory abortion if you go over that number…

Getting rid of previous EOs is not making up a new law. It's just discontinuing the old policies. Trump was separating families at the border and breaking all sorts of laws with his actions. Exposing the government to all sorts of lawsuits from civil liberties attorneys. Canceling that crap just made sense on so many levels. And it's not like Trump fixed the border problems.

You sound like all the rest of the reality deniers caused by TDS… fentanyl doubled from what 0 or near 0 before 2016 , I’d never heard of fentanyl until Harris and Biden opened the border.. maybe I’m wrong but I think most Americans blame this administration for the fentanyl deaths in our country. .. The last 3.5 years haven’t been bad, than why is Kamala trying to distance herself from the last 3.5 years. Those years have been the worst since Carters term. Maybe worse. Trump left office w/ 2% inflation and within a year inflation was at 9%. Not bad huh…I think more people are fleeing the Golden State than are fleeing Mexico, because of high taxes , high prices electric black outs , limited water usage, homelessness and Gov. Newsom . They cant do my job. .. But I guess your fine w/ them murdering someone else’s family like young girls they rape and murder , Mortman , Do you hear yourself?

No. I read your post and had to look it up, because, honestly, I hadn't heard much about fentanyl in the past year or so. So from government stats, fentanyl deaths went from about 50,000/year in January 2017 to about 100,000/year in 2021. Latest statistics show they're still almost 100,000/year. I even shared the link.

As far as Harris and the last 3.5 years, I agree that inflation was bad, but it was bad all around the world, and just not as bad in the US. I disagree that Biden did anything to make inflation worse, and actually worked hard to make it better, despite Republicans doing all they could to stop him.

Trump really has no plans to do anything to fix inflation, either. He says he'll lower energy costs. Like he's not a magic switch at his desk that makes oil companies charge half as much as they do. The truth is that oil companies already pump and refine as much oil as they want, already, and they sell their product to the world. Trump's intent to lower prices has absolutely no effect on that.
If you hadn't heard much about fentanyl in the last year then you haven't been paying attention or the news sources you follow are not reporting on it much on purpose. I'm guessing the latter which is almost criminal to purposely withhold something affecting this country so greatly so as not to make Biden/Harris look incompetent.

The left puts out some nonsense quite often but its what they DONT cover that is as bad or worse because they you get folks seemingly ignorant about important topics walking around clueless yet due to no fault of their own. The left covers for Biden/Harris constantly and has for the last 4 years.

You may be right. My news sources may be deliberately ignoring the fentanyl problem to bring me stories that I actually select and "like", or maybe those stories are reported and I just ignore them as old news. Nobody I know has died of fentanyl overdose. I know it's a national problem, but just not on my mind.

I actually read most of my news on a mobile app Smart News, and sometimes read it on my laptop. I haven't had cable TV service for about ten years.

TDS symptoms are known to increase this time of year, every other year.. the media has it bad.. CBS is doctoring Kamala speechs to make her sound less air headed… Martha Raddidtz suggests a handful of apartments in Colorado being taken over by violent gun totting illegal alien gangs is nothing to report about.. another media moron thinks Trump is not healthy enough to be president because he may have high cholesterol. Are these TDS victims deranged because of the disease or did they contract TDS because they were deranged beforehand ? The real disease is the mental disability to comprehend what another 4 years like the last 4 will do to this country. It will be a vague resemblance of where we once stood as the leader of the free world..With all of Trumps mis-steps, they pale in comparison to the brutality that Biden and Harris have allowed to increase on American citizens because of own border policies and the number of deaths from the fentanyl they have allowed the cartels to bring in. Those actions are much more dangerous to our country and our Democracy than anything Trump has said or done..

Maybe try to keep up with the times? Fentanyl deaths leveled off under Biden, after doubling under Trump.
www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/drug-overdose-data.htm
Anyway, The last 3.5 years haven't been bad. We started off badly--with the mess Trump left, mishandling the pandemic, and unemployment is near record lows and the stock market is higher now than any time under Trump. I don't know what things are like where you live, but here in California, restaurants and stores are busy again. We've got crowded freeways, despite our expensive gasoline and electricity. Where's the ruin? Is it because Trump is being prosecuted for his felonies? Are all those immigrants murdering your family? Maybe just taking your job?

In light of Donald Trump's recent, numerous mental slips, Kamala Harris' release of her medical information shines the light on Trump. Recently, 238 doctors signed a letter demanding that Trump release his records.
www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-health-records-doctors-for-harris/

Trump's campaign posted letters from Dr./Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) -- who may be an alcoholic, and who's letters aren't detailed, nor convincing. (The other letter is from a member at Trump's golf club).

So, what do you think Trump is hiding? Trump says he's the healthiest, but he lies a lot! He's objectively overweight and has recently displayed numerous episodes losing focus, and apparently has problems with his complexion and continence, so he wears makeup and diapers. Could that be it, or do you suppose there are issues that are even more grave?

Yea, and what does your critical thinking reveal about the rambling word salads from Kamala. It tells me she doesn’t have a original thought in her head, mostly air..and ignorant statements..

What word salad? The grants for first-time homebuyers is straightforward, as is her plan to not tax tips, which has caps that Trump's plan lacks such limits so that anybody can avoid taxes if they call their income a tip.

Maybe you're upset by her politician answers she gave in interviews, but she only says the high points in speeches and interviews to not bore anybody with details. The Harris campaign put out a policy paper & you can read it here:
kamalaharris.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Policy_Book_Economic-Opportunity.pdf

On the other hand, can you point to anything that shows Trump knows how to do anything beyond commit crimes?


The dope thinks that tariffs mean foreign governments pay us money. He's such an imbecile that he doesn't know that a tariff works like a sales tax--just another cost passed onto the consumer, and Trump thinks he can fund the government with 20%-across-the-board tariffs. It bugs me that Trump just says he'll do stuff like "bring back jobs" and "have Mexico pay for the wall" without saying how he could possibly do it. Unsurprisingly, he failed to deliver any such results back when he was president.

Violent crime went up during the Trump Administration and during the pandemic, while Americans were scrambling for testing supplies, Trump was actually sending those to Vladimir Putin.

How's that for "America First?"

Lol… pardon me but I believe the business man that has been successful in helping to build NYC into what is knows much better than you when it comes to tariffs or anything in the executive realm.. Trump knows how tariffs work, and he knows how to manipulate a rouge nation by using tariffs to slow their growth. Tariffs hurt the exporter more than the buyer over here with a few more dollars in taxes for the buyer. It’s the democrats that lack the ability to foresee the results their actions bring.. they are so clueless.
You ask can I point to anything that shows Trump can do anything but commit crimes. .. yes I can, I point to all the people that say they had it better when Trump was president, the working class say they don’t like doing without under Biden and Harris and they are not turning to Harris. No it’s another 4 years like they had under Trump is what they say they want. But I guess you won’t believe those folks either..

Hah, successful in NYC? You mean after not paying hundreds of $millions in taxes? Did you specify NYC so that you could avoid mentioning the casinos and resorts he drove into bankruptcy in New Jersey (not to mention Trump Shuttle, Trump Steaks, Trump Vodka, Trump Ice, Trump Water, Trump Mortgage, etc..) We don't even have a full count of all the vendors he's stiffed over the decades. But that's apparently "success" to you.

He’s gonna be to busy fixing Biden / Harris mistakes. His mistake was not really knowing who the deep state scum was that he made part of his administration in 2016.. this time he will be more careful who is in the White House..what part of her job is Kamala good at and just what is her job, in your past post you said she doesn’t realy have a job as VP.. which is it?

Correct. The VP's job is to preside over the Senate and break ties, and be ready to become President when the President can no longer preside. But You Republicans are the ones pretending everything Biden did this past 3.5 years is Harris' doing.

As for Trump, we already know that he'll just implement Project 2025, no matter how much he denies it, he doesn't have any other plans, and his buddies at the Heritage Foundation already put in the work. They're the ones who gave Trump his SCOTUS picks. They're the ones he's going to to have Trump install political appointees to run everything in the government, and keep him out of jail.

Yea , I know, and he hasn’t payed his taxes in years either , right? You do understand it’s Joe that has dementia and Hunter that doesn’t pay taxes.. and it’s Kamala that gives incoherent speeches. ‘The children of the community are the children of the community.’ another deep thought statement form that bimbo…Kamala…

1. Trump promised to release his tax returns as far back as 2015. Still waiting.

2. Hunter owed back taxes, and he's already been prosecuted for it. President Biden didn't even ask the DOJ to give him a break.

3. Go ahead and take one sentence out of context to criticize Harris, but at least she's not spewing lies about deadly hurricanes, putting people in danger.

Trump’s rambling and angry speeches raise questions about his age and fitness to serve four years

The 78-year-old former president has recently suggested there was an audience at his September 10 debate with Vice President Kamala Harris when there was none, and he has indicated that North Korea is attempting to assassinate him when he’s likely to have meant Iran. He misspeaks and misremembers things to such a degree that it no longer appears to garner much attention.

Why are you concerned? Where was your concern about Biden’s incoherent ramblings for the past 3 years.. and Trump is out in front of tens thousands of people every other day , so he may slip up once in a while . At least he’s not caught like a deer in headlights if his teleprompter quits like Kamala. 32 days, 32 days , 32 days. That’s what’s left 32 days… that’s how she talks when she not reading what to say.. she really is a joke..but she would be a nightmare if she becomes our president..

OK, so where's your concern about Trump's mental decline after your griping about Biden all that time?

Here's hoping that our friends and loved ones in Florida stay safe!

* According to the National Hurricane Center, Milton had maximum sustained wind speeds of 160 mph as of 11 a.m. EDT, qualifying it as a Category 5.

* Milton is forecast to move near Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula Monday and Tuesday, then cross the eastern Gulf of Mexico and approach the west coast of Florida by Wednesday.

* Some weakening is expected before the storm reaches the Florida Gulf coast, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, but Milton is “still likely to be a large and powerful hurricane at landfall in Florida, with life-threatening hazards at the coastline and well inland.”

* The storm was about 730 miles west-southwest of Tampa as of 11 a.m. Monday.

* Hurricane watches are in effect for the Florida Gulf Coast from Chokoloskee, about 90 miles south of Fort Meyers, to the mouth of the Suwanee River, including Tampa Bay, and for Lake Okeechobee, about 40 miles inland from West Palm Beach.

* Tropical storm warnings cover much of the same area in Florida, with the addition of the Florida Keys, and a storm surge warning is in effect near Charlotte Harbor and Tampa Bay.

* A storm surge could raise water levls by as much as 12 feet in Tampa Bay and between the Anclote River and Englewood in Florida, and by between 3 and 10 feet in other parts of the state (the Hurricane Center warms the surge "will be accompanied by large and dangerous waves”).

* Hurricane Milton is expected to bring 5 to 10 inches of rain, with localized totals up to 15 inches, across parts of the Florida Peninsula and the Keys through Wednesday night, which could cause "considerable flash, urban, and areal flooding," according to the NHC.

Bottom line is the Biden , Harris administration is responsible for the many lost and abused children that came here illegally with the traffickers , no other way to spin it . Harris ‘s feel good and love for all campaign slogans aren’t cutting it. Her actions are so far off from her words. Hollow , empty and disconnected from real people and the problems they face because of her and her party’s inept performance in the White House.

Sure, but why didn't Trump take any responsibility? I have more confidence in Harris who's good at her job than Trump, who absolutely sucked at his. The guy's a flat-out criminal who caused most of the problem, and has no intention of fixing his mistakes.
