Initially I didn’t think Kamala would have a chance stepping in this late but coming around that she can whoop his fat a**. I’m praying she goads him into some serious mysoginstif racist stuff. It shouldn’t be hard.
Over/under on how long it takes for him to use the hard n word? I know there are apparently Apprentice tapes with him letting loose. If he gets pi$$ed off enough I could see him accidentally letting it slip.
To his people, that word is just "anti-woke." So NP.
Just heard from a West Indian woman that has never voted in this country who said she is registering to vote and will vote for Kamala and there is a lot of Gen Z energy behind her. I know several people that have said they are donating to a presidential campaign for the first time. A hood rat that was all in for Trump last year has changed his tune and he said he knows guys that feel the same. Trump's "black jobs" comment is his "deplorables"..... A small sample....time will tell.
In her camp cautiously but I would not this “she’s young” sh*t has to stop, she’s already older the the average presidents age.
The proffer was “someone youngER”…no need to qualify it. She’s 59. Now that’s old? Median age is 55.

Trump questioned the authenticity of Kamala's "blackness". If he now doubles down, it was intentional.
If he backfills & makes excuses, it was an unforced error, he walked into a minefield & plowed through it rather than picking his way through.
It will resonate with voters who are frustrated with the double standard & hypocrisy when trying to honestly discuss race in the US.
Time will tell how big the impact will be. I don't know if it will help or hurt Trump.
I would not have recommended he handle it that way, but I didn't think he'd win in 2016, or get the nomination in '16 & "20.
That's my frank assessment & I have nothing more to say on this issue.
Let the personal attacks & smears begin. Let the bile flow. Get it out of your systems.
You just appear to be parroting the Trump post-interview spin room. But I know it’s about policy for you.

Have you ever watched Buttegieg in a hostile room or network?

A Message from NABJ President Ken Lemon:

NABJ has been in talks with both the Democratic and Republican parties since January. NABJ was in contact with Vice President Kamala Harris’ team for an in-person panel before President Joe Biden dropped out of the race in July.

However, we were advised by her campaign at the time that her schedule could not accommodate this request. The last update we were provided (earlier this week) was that Harris would not be available in person or virtually during our Convention.

Apparently she's a lot busier than your hero who had to embarrass himself solo. Besides according to Orange Fatso she isn't black but really Indian. :oops:

She didn’t show up because she ain’t a real Black. Didn’t want to face a hostile panel that was going to call her out.

And you know what? If you’re at home and you disagree with everything I just said, our message to you is this, we will still defend to the death your right to say it, because that is who we are as Americans. We are the country where we can disagree like hell and still get together at the dinner table at the end of it. That is the America I know. That is the America we miss. We do not have to be ancient Rome. We don’t have to be this nation in decline. We can still be a nation in our ascent. A nation whose best days, not in some fake politician way, but in a true way, a nation whose best days are actually still ahead of us, still on our way to that shining city on a hill.
This is the polar opposite to how Republicans have been governing. Polar opposite.

How much of the platform, speeches, and governing is about "woke"?

You know, for the 1000th time, if Republicans actually behaved the way they THINK they talk and govern? They'd have my support. They've spent the last 12 years "sticking it to the libs", and "the gays"....and ignoring the people they claim to support: the working class.

How'd the R's react to some dumb kid who dared to take a job for Bud light? Now try and fit that reaction in to the above paragraph, and try not to laugh at what Vivek is claiming.
The very first step in achieving a party goal is saying it out loud, so you're accountable for attaining it. That's what politicians do at the convention, before an election.

It seems like the party's stated platform doesn't fit your assessment of the party or the oft portrayed conservative stereotype in the media.
No. That's not it at all.

I'm looking at actual laws and Court cases that have been enacted in real life, Kram. The reversal of Roe that makes you so happy runs 100% counter to Vivek's speech. In short: he's LYING, and has no interest whatsoever in the middle road....which is what he's pitching here. They, and you, want far right policies. And so that's what you're getting.
He's not lying at all.
The reversal of Roe is 100% in line with what he said. Now it's up to the states, and the people who live in those states, to decide what they want to do with abortion. Either direction.
So yes, that makes me very happy.
What is your issue with that? Outside of wanting YOUR preference mandated nationally?

Not Creepy. People can choose not to have children and still be happy. Some people just weren't cut out to parent. And for others, having children has held them back and left them unfulfilled.

But people should be well aware of the potential consequences for a self-centered life.

My Aunt who is in her 80s, intentionally childless and pursued an amazing career and profession in her early years. Was the top of her industry, doctorate, respected, well traveled, earned and experienced some of the most incredible things in life and an incredibly rewarding career, life.

She now talks constantly that being childless is her biggest regret/failure/misery. It haunts her. Literally that is all she talks about for the past 10 years.

That's not the case for everyone. But a very real potential consequence of that choice.

There is much less possibility for hope in a childless life/world. There is a reason that regret in old age and the joys of family, children and legacy are some of the most common themes in great literature, movies and art for centuries.

Because it's real.

Vivek had an excellent message at the RNC:
And our message to Gen Z is this, you’re going to be the generation that actually saves this country. You want to be a rebel? You want to be a hippie? You want to stick it to the man? Show up on your college campus and try calling yourself a conservative. Say you want, get married, have kids, teach them to believe in God, and pledge allegiance to their country, because you know what? Fear has been infectious in this country, but courage can be contagious too. That too is what it means to be an American.

And you know what? If you’re at home and you disagree with everything I just said, our message to you is this, we will still defend to the death your right to say it, because that is who we are as Americans. We are the country where we can disagree like hell and still get together at the dinner table at the end of it. That is the America I know. That is the America we miss. We do not have to be ancient Rome. We don’t have to be this nation in decline. We can still be a nation in our ascent. A nation whose best days, not in some fake politician way, but in a true way, a nation whose best days are actually still ahead of us, still on our way to that shining city on a hill.

That country where no matter who you are or where your parents came from, or what your skin color is, or how long your last name is, that you will still get ahead in this country with your own hard work, your own commitment, your own dedication. And that you know what, you are free to speak your mind at every step of the way. That is the American dream. That is what won us the American Revolution.

That is what reunited us after the Civil War. That is what won us two world Wars and the Cold War. That is what still gives hope to the free world. And if we can revive that dream over group identity and victimhood and grievance, then nobody in the world, not a nation, not a corporation, not a virus, not China is going to defeat us. That is what American exceptionalism is all about, and that is what we will revive this November when we send Donald J. Trump back to the White House. Thank you all. God bless you and your families, and may God bless our United States of America. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
