1. Wait! She's married to Qusay and she's making fun of other people? She willingly married 'Gums.'

6. Well, his last name is TRUMP and he is fabulously wealthy

[hlthe2b]

2. Good for Jake

[JDC]

3. She is garbage. Fits right into that vapid clan of grifters.

[dalton99a]

4. A vile despicable piece of shit from the First Family of Liars

[mchill]

5. Can I mock those lips she was not born with?

[PatSeg]

13. Oh yes you can

Actually that was the first thing I noticed about her. How much work has she had done on that face? Some people just don't know when to stop with the plastic surgery and it makes them look plastic and freakish.

[smirkymonkey]

31. All that work and she is still hideous.

What a horrible, evil woman. She is trash. She fits right in with that family perfectly.

[PatSeg]

32. Oh yes, she certainly does

She has opportunist written all over her. She appears to be much brighter than her husband and probably has him wrapped around her little finger.

[Mr. Ected]

7. I would love to see every single one of these grifters stripped of their fortune

And watch their mocking little asses flounder with the rest of us.

But for the money, she is nobody. Let me rephrase that. She is nobody even with the money.

[Deuxcents]

8. They are pathetic

The whole lot of them.

[CurtEastPoint]

9. What a nasty person she is. I know several words to describe her.

[Walleye]

10. He should've cut off her mic. They really are like little kids on the playground

[Blue_true]

27. I totally agree. They come in with the intention to talk over everyone.

I can’t see how that behavior appeals to any voter.

[Walleye]

28. I guess it only appeals to the bully-in-chief

[Blue_true]

29. And that is who they are talking to, along with Magats. nt

[Siwsan]

11. I wonder how much the trump* in-laws got for their souls.

If they had one, to begin with, that is.

[CatMor]

12. That coming from someone whose father-in-law...

calls one of his biggest backers by the wrong name multiple times.

[beachbumbob]

14. we didn't know it goes dark at night, or if you fall, what gravity is....all nonsense

[Gothmog]

15. This is personal to me

I stuttered until fourth grade. I still stutter when when under stress or when I am tired. I was a day one contributior to Joe and maxed out during the primaries when joe really needed the money. I got to meet Joe twice at fundraisers where I got to discuss stuttering with Joe. i was hugged by Joe Biden and he told me about the 20+ chldren with stutters he keeps track of. The young man who spoke at the national convention was amazing.

I saw this tweet and needed to share it

Lara Trump is pure pond scum

[Delarage]

19. They make this their sole campaign ad and it would work for me....

21. This has been one of my fvorite ads of the cycle

I saw it when it first came out. This is a very pwoerful ad

[634-5789]

16. He's taking her to the woodshed RIGHT NOW on her damnable lies.

[StarfishSaver]

17. I appreciate him calling her out, but one sure way to stop this kind of misinformation is to

not put people like her on the airwaves in the first place, since he surely knew the kinds of things she was going to say before they even booked her.

[Gothmog]

23. Jake called her out on this and the "lock her up" crap

24. On the other hand, in discussions like this, they get exposed.

Otherwise, they're just allowed to roam free. It's a bit of a catch-22.

[cilla4progress]

18. You know., their gish gallop

Bullshit - they still get away with it.

[no_hypocrisy]

20. Trump Mean Girl

[SMC22307]

22. I'd like to see Dr. Jill Biden set her straight...

even though Tapper did a pretty good job of it.

[secondwind]

25. That voice!! God, she's annoying!! Ugh 😑

[Blue_true]

26. I really hate how the Trump surrogates attempt to talk over people with motor-mouth.

If I was a host, I would say “you are being discourteous with the constant talking”, then have their mike shut off.

[GoCubsGo]

30. I look forward to seeing this filthy waste of carbon being perp walked,

along with the rest of the dregs of humanity with whom she shares her last name. She is beyond disgusting.

[BlueStater]

33. Why is he even interviewing this grifter?

I’ve never seen a president’s family so hungry for fame as this asshole’s.

[ooky]

34. Hope she leaves the country with President Bodybags after he loses.

[greatauntoftriplets]

35. She didn't give a straight answer to any of his questions.

She and Eric deserve each other.

[DeminPennswoods]

36. Tapper's a good journalist

I remember him from his early days writing for Salon. He, Joan Walsh, Eric Boehlert, Joe Conanson - a really great group of liberal/lefty journalists.

[GeorgeGist]

37. What I see on my screen ...

is cognitive stupidity.

[Grammy23]

38. She is a lying sack of sh*t. The story of Biden's struggle with stuttering at an early age

Is well known and discussed. He has made no secret of that and in fact has built it into how he was able to overcome adversity. She is just flat out lying that she knows nothing about his stuttering.

What she did was take a play out of her father in law’s playbook that is to take a person’s so-called weakness and try to turn it against him. Mocking the disabled is a tRump trick that he unashamedly is not afraid to use. His DIL does, too.

Unfortunately for them, Biden has overcome stuttering and has been a been an example to others who struggle with it. He has learned how to deal with stressful moments so he doesn’t lapse back into the speech issues he dealt with in childhood.

Shame on her. It is low to go after anything your opponent has struggled to overcome whether it is a speech issue, physical problem or mental health condition. It shows everything we need to know about her character. Or more accurately, her lack of it.
