What Kamala achieved yesterday

She made everyone see or hear about the CONvicted felon’s comments on the ‘enemy within’ . She exposed the fact that Baier and Fux deliberately edited his comments.
And now his ‘enemy within’ clip is getting massive coverage.

Well done VP.
Fuck Fux and the CONvicted felon

And plenty strong to stand up to the tinpot dictators of the world.
All the ppl questioning whether she could or not shld take heed. They're not afraid of a weak conman. They're afraid of a highly intelligent & capable former USGA.
She is the only presidential nominee whose worked on all 3 branches of government. Her economic plan is hailed as being beneficial for the country. She has a history of ensuring crime is down, and crime is down under Biden for the repugs who say Dems are soft on crime.
Social security & other entitlements w not only stay in place but be greatly enhanced to help the aging, young ppl, families & middle class families.
Bottom line she's the leader we desperately need in these troubled times. We need to get her into office w our votes.

That Fox News Interview May Have Done To Kamala What The Debate Did To Biden
The Federalist ^ | October 16, 2024 | Eddie Scarry

There’s no longer any denying that she’s a mindless, superficial candidate who instills no confidence.

===================================================================

What happened Wednesday night to Kamala Harris on Fox News may have been the equivalent to what happened to President Joe Biden at that infamous debate in June — irreparably exposed her as unacceptable to voters.

In what was widely seen as a Hail Mary move by Kamala’s campaign, the vice president agreed to an extended interview on Fox News, one of the exceedingly few national TV interviews she’s done since she was anointed the Democrat Party’s post-Biden nominee. Remarkably, she offered nothing new in terms of her weak, often confusing answers to obvious questions, but she did finally face probing lines of inquiry and necessary follow-up when time after time she attempted to change the subject from her performance in the White House to attacks on Donald Trump.

[...]

Baier asked them all and Kamala each and every time changed the subject to Trump. To his immense credit, Baier put in an exhaustive effort to keep her in focus, to which Kamala grew visibly frustrated. You could see it in her body language and hear it in her voice that she was at a loss for words because she has no answers that, if she were honest, wouldn’t immediately disqualify her from the campaign.

[...] There’s no longer any denying that she’s a mindless, superficial candidate who in that interview instilled no confidence that she has the vision or aptitude to lead the world’s strongest military and biggest economy.

And when the media whines today, how she was "too pushy, too aggressive, too whatthefuckever" women everywhere will be motivated, again, to vote for her.

breaking point for Mika on MJ. She was steamed when she looked into the camera this morning and stated that the Republican Party was now a full blown “fascist” movement and that it was appropriate and responsible to call it that. I know the full history of how she and her husband helped to usher in the orange prick, but It seems now that Mika recognizes that she might be personally in harms way by the felon’s threats, she’s pulling the fire alarm. She needs to continue to hammer this home continuously until the polls close.

He can’t come out from behind Fox’s protection because he is too stupid to answer real questions.

The contrast between the two could not be more different. One candidate is a natural leader, the other is a fraud.

And Obama agrees with him, I'm sure.
