Long way before any Win 2024. That was a call from before Biden dropped out of the race. Back when Biden was still insisting he's in it until the end. Since then, the party has lined up nicely and, incase you missed it, the convention went really well and the Harris/Walz campaign has raised over $540 million. www.reuters.com/world/us/harris-raises-540-million-since-launching-her-presidential-campaign-2024-08-25/ |

No eveidence? How about the advisors that said they advised him but he did not listen to their advice .. and no , the president isn’t held by rule to contact gold star family’s . But it’s the human thing to do and Biden being the uncaring POS he is he couldn’t find it in his heart to do that. Trump did… Kamala was the last one in the room with Joe to decide the fate of the withdrawal. So it’s on her as much as Biden.. the VP is part of the team that is in the White House, just because she’s not at the top of the ticket doesn’t give her a “ out” without the criticism she deserves . She’s done absolutely nothing to help the American citizen, but she’s done plenty to put illegals ahead of citizens. And that will be more of her agenda if she’s elected president..
There is a difference between not listening and rejecting. Anybody could see that US troops in Afghanistan were resented by much of the population, and keeping 2,500 or 250,000 soldiers stationed there wasn't going to change that. And insisting that Harris had any call on the position ignores that she's only the VICE president. Maybe she has her own opinion on the matter or maybe she agrees whole-heartedly, but it's Biden who makes the call. That said, nobody asked for a suicide bomber, not even Kamala Harris. That's a silly argument. |

It’s been 3 years today since we lost 13 brave American soldiers in Afghanistan. But Joe and Kamala have yet to contact the family’s to explain how his and her decision to NOT listen to his military advisors is what led to their death, by a suicide bomber. These two morons Joe and Kamala are bad for America at a time when we need a president that’s not weak and worthless and Kamala is even worse.. where has joe been since he got pushed out of his next election? Maybe he thinks he’s not president anymore.. and on a permanent vacation…
Huh. So where's the mandate that the POTUS contact military families? Where's the precedent that POTUS personally call or write to next-of-kin for every soldier lost in combat? Got any examples of Trump doing that for any of the 65 troops lost in combat while he was president? And it's weird that you bring Kamala Harris into it, considering that she's the VP. It's like griping that the House Speaker didn't stop them. There's no evidence that Biden didn't listen to his generals. But even if he agreed with them and kept "a small force" in Afghanistan, then we would've undoubtedly seen several more losses, like we saw during Trump's term. |

You doubt !.. It happens when tax’s become to high to deal with.. corps. need less burden from government in order to hire more people to expand their business which means more tax base. Why is that so hard for a democrat to understand.. Why do you think less money for corporations equals more money for the employees. Democrats never think ahead to realize what their feel good w/ no substance policies will do in the long run… Think before you act for once,, please…
No, I get that corporations have great incentive to maximize profits. But all the farming for lower corporate tax rates is already done. There are more than twenty countries with a 0% corporate tax rate, and yet we still have corporations here in the US. When Trump lowered the corporate tax rate, we didn't suddenly gain new corporations from other countries. It's not that Democrats don't understand your logic. It's just been shown to be false. "Trickle-down" economics never worked, and the Laffer Curve is a silly mental exercise. Since Reagan, the national debt has increased to unsustainable levels, and all the easy spending cuts have already been made. If anything, raising the corporate tax rate to 29% isn't enough. |

It’s already at that point after 3+ years under these two morons. We let Iran fire missiles at US troops w/ no consequences to them. We let millions of illegals come into our country with no idea what some are up to or where most of them are. We let murders and thugs back on the streets to commit more crime and assaults in our liberal sanctuary cities . We treat our homeless like third world outcasts while treating the “ newcomers” like royalty. .. So much wrong with this country under the democrats rule and worse off if the dems win this next election…
None of those assertions are true. Maybe stop getting your news from The Donald. |

you mean those policies like price control, $25,000 to first time home buyers, Trumps no tax on tips policy, her plan to tax corporations to the point they go overseas or start firing people because of the overburden of her idiot tax plan. None of those other than the tips w/ no tax idea she stole from Trump will ever go in to effect. Terrible ideas from a terrible politician… Now we know that the Secret Service chief lied about her putting xtra detail on Trumps rally in Pennsylvania, she gave the order “ do not increase agents “ or xtra equipment. And they refused to pick up the radios the local police supplied for the USSS for communication.. Why do democrats always corrupt every agency under their control?
Harris' tip tax exemption is different from Trump's in that it has limits, so that corporate officers can't skip taxes by calling their 10-digit income a tip. I doubt corporations would relocate if their tax rate returns to pre-Trump levels. |

Popular because she had open borders.
The poll described in your link wasn't about popularity. It was only a poll, across 18 countries, where respondents were asked whether they had confidence in Kamala Harris to "do the right thing" regarding world affairs. Her results are similar to other world leaders like Biden, French president Macron, and German chancellor Kohl. And Mexico wasn't among the countries polled, so border policy isn't relevant. Basically, it destroys the notion that the USA will become a joke if it elects Harris as president. |

Kamala did not do her job as VP. Now trying to be a president.
Of course Kamala did her job as VP. She stood ready to take over as President the whole time, and as Constitutionally required, she broke ties in the Senate and regularly checked in on the President. And before you cry more, VP Harris was never made a "Border Czar." Theresa Cardinal Brown, senior adviser on immigration and border policy at the Bipartisan Policy Center, said that early in the Biden administration, Harris was assigned the task of reducing migration to the U.S. southern border and collaborating with Central American nations to address the root causes of migration through diplomacy, development and investment.
“She was never named a border czar. In fact, the border was not her priority issue at all. The border was the responsibility of Homeland Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. She was never in charge of the border per se,” Brown said. http://www.voanews.com/a/harris-was-never-border-czar-experts-say-despite-republican-claims/7711579.html |

Maybe I did confuse the polls that describe the attitude of Americans.. it’s easy to confuse these polls because all of them point to the failure of this administration to protect the American way of life, from the increase in violent crimes and the invasion on our borders to the high inflation that has jacked up the prices on Everything.. Kamala and her VP pick are void of any original ideals that work for America , that’s why they are silent on their issues for our future if they win… Now that their fairytale convention is over , watch her sudden fame start crashing.. her fame isn’t from anything she has done , its only because the 80 year old dementia patient is out… Now they will she the real Kamala and how destructive she and her policies will be, just look at how she ruined San Francisco..
Failure to protect Americans? Crime is lower now than at any time under Trump. Undocumented immigration is high because life sucks in other countries and America is that good. Inflation is up, but it's up all around the world; that's not a Biden- or America-only problem. World-wide, the USA is in the bottom third of inflation rates. In North America, the USA (2.9%) is in between Canada (2.5%) and Mexico (5.6%). But I get it. You get your news from The Donald, so the US is a "nation in decline." Good luck with that. |

First of all, Trump put sanctions on any country that went along with helping get that pipeline up and running that it put a hurt on Russia until Biden came in and stopped our exports and let Russia provide our alleys…On another topic; where is all the transparency the democrats claim they are… their idea of transparency is hide from the media and don’t answer questions about their policies..
Transparency? Like Trump's tax returns? Like how Trump says his "big and beautiful" plans will be announced "in two weeks?" Harris is only a month into her campaign, but her policies are still more detailed than anything Trump's put out. http://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx924r4d5yno http://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/harris-has-proposed-a-slew-of-economic-policies-heres-a-look-at-whats-in-them |

Kamala will do nothing for the economy but help make it worse.
Counterpoint: Harris' objectives to lower housing costs on top of all the work they've already done for labor and reducing drug costs, would help the country much more than Trump's stupid idea of imposing huge new tariffs across the board--which is effectively a new federal sales tax on all imported goods. Trump is an idiot, barely even trying to solve problems, beyond keeping himself unaccountable for his many crimes. |

It’s not up to the previous administration to do the work of the current one.. Biden could have reset the whole process of the withdrawal if he wasn’t such a idiot in a job way over his head, and his VP was a bigger idiot than him… we can say the same thing on every issue that those two have dealt with,, worse off after they ‘ fix it’.. video after video shows what a disaster the Afghanistan fiasco was ‘ worse than the viet nam withdrawal .. and that’s hard to believe it could have been worse. Tons of useful US equipment left behind… Biden and Harris say it was the greatest and most successful pullout ever….It goes to show , even when you set the table for Joe he still finds a way to break the dishes…
Not up to the previous administration? They offered to withdraw from the country, and then not only did they not withdraw, Trump ordered the draw-down of US troops in Afghanistan so that the withdrawal could not be done. He effectively sabotaged the operation. Who's the idiot? Trump is the idiot. Followed closely by his cabinet and especialy Mike Pompeo. |

With Kamala as president of the USA this will repeat or even worse. Republicans keep promising economic collapse if Democrats are elected, but it never happens and the worst crashes and the weakest economic growth happens under Republican administrations. ![]() ![]() |

Do you. Really think that a bank is going to let a government handout to a low income or a person with bad or no credit have that home loan.. probably not .. remember the foreclosures under George W Bushes term and the Fannie Mae fiasco of “ everybody own their own home”.. and with the state of our poor economy now , it would be another catastrophe in the democrats making.. Remember when casting dispersion’s on Trump ; more people died from covid under Biden , even though Trump had the vaccine ready to go when Biden came un.. More people had the $$$ in their pockets to live comfortably, not so now.. Biden has increased our national debt more than any president with his giving of billions to illegal immigrants, billions to Iran so they can keep attacking US service men.. They never mention the rampant crime they have allowed with their soft on crime policies. They never mention the high inflation they created. They never mention how their policies of weakness and appeasement have started two wars and Chinas threats to our alleys. They always claim they created ten million jobs, actually those jobs were created by Trump and came back to work after the covid shutdown that was also created by democrats.. 29% corporate tax is much higher than any other country puts on their job makers.. corporations don’t make money by sitting on their cash , they higher more people and they pay higher wages to those people , so handcuffing them to expand their business is not good if you want to strengthen and build the economy.. This idea of bottom up and middle out makes no sense. To build the bottom up requires more jobs from those corporations, not more handouts.. now we are finding out those job numbers they are trying to take credit for we’re over stated by about 1 million jobs.. just more lies and misinformation from the democrats..
Such denialism. Trump was much worse on the national debt than Biden. http://thehill.com/business/4736740-trump-biden-fiscal-policy-deficit/ And who's "they?" Who is the real denier of reality? It’s those who say we are better off now . If we were better off now than why is 70% of the country say we aren’t. And THEY are the democrats , Joe , Kamala ,and the squad , which directs the Democratic Policy… The PPP was very popular among the republicans and the democrats when voted on.. and thanks to the PPP it saved the very jobs that Obama claims Biden created… even though it looks as if they( the democrats) cooked the books on job creation by over 800,000 jobs.. same with their crime stats, they sound good when you don’t include the crime reports from Chicago, New York , Detroit , All the sanctuary cities are left out of those stats.. Wow, you believe everything Trump tells you, I guess. There is no poll that shows 70% of Americans are worse off now than 4 years ago. Maybe you mean some other poll or some statistic, or again, just parroting something you heard Trump say on TV? Crime is down. Lower than at any time under trump, using the same metrics. And there's no reason to remove a city from the stats, since stats for those cities are published, too, and anybody can put the numbers together, like the news agencies reporting on this did. Try again. |

NEVER MIND , it’s obvious you will say anything to displace the true failure of the Biden Harris Presidency their wars , their failures in Afghanistan, their failure on the border and their failure on the economy.. Trump had nothing to do with any of the crap we see now.. and your mention of the “ pee tape” that was all Hillary and her made up lies. The politicians you like seem to be the most disgusting of the sleezbags. Why is that?
The failure of the Afghanistan withdrawal was that Pompeo gave it away to the Taliban, left the Provisional Afghan Authority out of discussions and then once Pompeo basically gave in to everything the Taliban asked, he went home and the Trump Administration didn't do anything further. Didn't make any preparations for the transition from our side. Made no arrangements with allies. So of course you consider it all Biden's fault, because it would be too embarrassing to consider the alternative. Trump had the withdrawal ready to go , but after Biden put his special touch of F…ing destroying what works , it all went to hell, and Kamala gave her approval of Joes idea to pull our soldiers out before our equipment, and before securing the base they were operating out of.. but Joe has been wrong on every foreign affairs decision he has made.. and Kamala is more of the same… the Democrats convention was void of any semblance of the past 3+ years that we have seen from their presidency. It was all smoke and mirrors and lies and deception. I think most of us know the real truth …nothing positive from their past to campaign on . Only jabs at Trump and his supporters… it won’t work for the dems when 3/4 of Americans are struggling to make ends meet. Oh please. Trump went around claiming the US left $85 billion worth of equipment in Afghanistan, when $85 billion is the total spent on Afghanistan, including payroll and foreign aid, and all the US-owned equipment was either pulled out or destroyed. The equipment that was left belonged to the Afghan Government. Again, it was Trump's guy, Mike Pompeo who failed when it came to negotiating the withdrawal. And the F***ing moron never made any arrangements to meet his own negotiated deadline, so of course it all went sideways. |

LOL, you say the craziest that’s NTS.. Trump had a peace deal in progress in the Middle East between Israel and several muslin nations before Biden blew that all to hell by starting the cash payments to Iran.. Trump stopped the Russian pipeline and Biden approved it. Who was tougher on Russia I ask? Trump was putting a real hurt on Russia by stopping billions of dollars from oil exports going to Russia,… Biden told them “ DONT” ..the adults you talk about are very foolish adults at best. Afghanistan, Border, Inflation, Crime, and the 35,000 children the Biden administration let in and now they admit they don’t know where or who or what is going on with those children.. they were never given a notice to appear for their claim stay here. With all the problems facing the United States now and knowing who got us here how could anyone cast a vote for more of the same. That’s sick…
You appear to get your news from Trump rambling comments outside courthouses. http://thehill.com/opinion/energy-environment/4726844-trumps-nord-stream-2-disaster/mlite/ Trump didn't stop the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. He enabled it. It went from 0 to 90% complete during his administration, and Trump rejected congressional calls to stop it. Sorry, but Trump is not a good news source. |

Trump Chides WH On Revision Job Report
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/donald-trump-joe-biden-kamala-harris/2024/08/21/id/1177350/ US Added Fewer Jobs Than Previously Reported https://www.newsmax.com/finance/streettalk/jobs-revision-economy/2024/08/21/id/1177336/ Sure, it's just like Trump to pretend he's great. Jobs numbers were frequently revised during his administration and in the end he wound up with negative jobs growth over her presidency. Here's an article from 2019 about revisions showing that his jobs numbers were inflated by about 20%. And that was even before the pandemic, which he hugely mismanaged. |
