Lol. As if. Hassin Bin Sober Feb 2019 #3

Some people may be strongly critical of Harris for speaking out at that time. David__77 Feb 2019 #5

wait and see attitude Hassin Bin Sober Feb 2019 #6

I won't be waiting lol... David__77 Feb 2019 #18

Not really, but DownriverDem Feb 2019 #47

Why? She's taken note that Trump lies all the time and wants to set up a truthful framework DemocracyMouse Feb 2019 #65

Trump's speech tonight confirms what I wrote earlier today DemocracyMouse Feb 2019 #89

Plenty of People Will Criticize Her for Breathing McKim Feb 2019 #48

I think having a robust discussion of ideas would be good. David__77 Feb 2019 #50

No. She is upstaging Trump, not Abrams. SunSeeker Feb 2019 #32

But justie18 Feb 2019 #37

She's not upstaging Abrams, she won't be commenting on anything trump says, Abrams will. George II Feb 2019 #67

she is not competing with abarams who is not running for president AlexSFCA Feb 2019 #77

Sen. Kamala Harris to Deliver Her Own SOTU Response David__77 Feb 2019 #4

It is not a "response," it's a coming BEFORE Trump's SOTU. SunSeeker Feb 2019 #34

Doesn't matter. She's hoping to be the news line the next day, instead of Abrams. Honeycombe8 Feb 2019 #56

Any reason why they both couldn't be? forgotmylogin Feb 2019 #57

Yes, there is. There is only one Democratic headline the day after. Harris wants it to be her. Honeycombe8 Feb 2019 #58

Every single Democrat could make a statement on Twitter. forgotmylogin Feb 2019 #61

Okay, okay. You're a Harris supporter. I get it. It doesn't change the facts.. Honeycombe8 Feb 2019 #64

What about Bernie? Or any other Democrat who has comments? forgotmylogin Feb 2019 #84

Anyone is "allowed." But it shows what their goal is. Which is not for the benefit of the Dem. Party Honeycombe8 Feb 2019 #86

By that logic, you must believe everyone speaking right now is hoping to take the news from Abrams. SunSeeker Feb 2019 #68

She's not delivering a response EffieBlack Feb 2019 #45

That's what the Daily Kos poster said. It's a SOTU-related statement, not a response. David__77 Feb 2019 #46

only the internet is distracted bigtree Feb 2019 #8

ABC News: Sen. Kamala Harris to deliver remarks on Facebook Live ahead of Pres. Trump's SOTU David__77 Feb 2019 #10

Thanks for warning me. Honeycombe8 Feb 2019 #33

Still waiting for the outrage. vsrazdem Feb 2019 #11

It may be a while Hassin Bin Sober Feb 2019 #20

There's no outrage like selective outrage. n/t QC Feb 2019 #24

Making a statement prior to the SOTU I think that would be fine with most Dems. honest.abe Feb 2019 #12

I can't believe she would try and upstage Stacey Abrams by preempting her SOTU rebuttal. TCJ70 Feb 2019 #13

You are clearly confused if you cant see the difference. honest.abe Feb 2019 #14

Maybe all parties could be silent and sit still for a period of 24 hours before and after. David__77 Feb 2019 #15

Or it just really doesn't matter when someone puts their thoughts out on their social media outlets TCJ70 Feb 2019 #16

Or, rather than having outrage, one could say... David__77 Feb 2019 #17

+1 rampartc Feb 2019 #27

I think it's great that there is such shared perspective. David__77 Feb 2019 #28

Some of the views here Mr. Quackers Feb 2019 #29

I've noticed that, too. n/t QC Feb 2019 #49

I can understand how it might seem that way! David__77 Feb 2019 #83

Do you remember an old time poster named seventhson? QC Feb 2019 #85

I do not. David__77 Feb 2019 #87

He was one of the most skilled trolls I have ever seen. QC Feb 2019 #88

I think the more the merrier! Sincerely! lunatica Feb 2019 #38

How anyone could say she is "upstaging" or "preempting" Abrams' rebuttal is quite beyond me. Demit Feb 2019 #35

it's idiotic Mr. Quackers Feb 2019 #51

you are missing the irony these posts are being delivered in, re sanders threads. nt JCanete Feb 2019 #62

Evidently so. Demit Feb 2019 #80

It's great - we need all the Dems we can to speak out against the asshole Trump womanofthehills Feb 2019 #59

How can he disrupt something that is already over? Voltaire2 Feb 2019 #91

bad move imo. Mosby Feb 2019 #19

Which one? Harris' pre-rebuttal or Sanders' rebuttal? SunSeeker Feb 2019 #43

both. nt Mosby Feb 2019 #82

Guardian: "Powerful Statement" David__77 Feb 2019 #22

How many people will tune in IcyPeas Feb 2019 #25

We should have a SOTUbuster and everyone can give a rebuttal democratisphere Feb 2019 #26

I think I'll give one, too. Look for my Youtube response coming soon. Honeycombe8 Feb 2019 #31

Stealing Abrams' thunder? Seriously? Honeycombe8 Feb 2019 #30

It is a pre-rebuttal meant to steal Trump's thunder. SunSeeker Feb 2019 #39

She's hoping to be the Democratic news line the next day, instead of Abrams. nt Honeycombe8 Feb 2019 #53

How exactly is Sanders stealing Abram's thunder? progressoid Feb 2019 #54

By claiming he is giving the response to Trump's SOTU. SunSeeker Feb 2019 #66

Wow. progressoid Feb 2019 #70

Was Kennedy the first white male to give the Dem rebuttal to the SOTU? nt SunSeeker Feb 2019 #72

Ah, I see. progressoid Feb 2019 #78

Where has he made that claim? Voltaire2 Feb 2019 #92

In his tweet: "I'll be on Facebook Live, Twitter and YouTube to respond to Trump." SunSeeker Feb 2019 #94

He did not claim he was giving "the Democratic response". Voltaire2 Feb 2019 #95

I didn't say he did. nt SunSeeker Feb 2019 #96

Oh so you agree that he was not Voltaire2 Feb 2019 #97

No. It was disrespectful of him to give a response to Trump right after Abrams. SunSeeker Feb 2019 #98

So Abrams response was so weak it needed Voltaire2 Feb 2019 #99

You don't seem to understand the concept of respect. SunSeeker Feb 2019 #100

So how exactly did a YouTube event after Abrams Voltaire2 Feb 2019 #101

The focus should have been on Abrams' response last night, instead of Bernie's. SunSeeker Feb 2019 #102

Wow, I think you got caught in a couple hoops, but all in all, I'm still impressed. nt JCanete Feb 2019 #63

I'm not the one caught in hoops, JCanete. nt SunSeeker Feb 2019 #69

Her instincts don't thrill me, to put it mildly Awsi Dooger Feb 2019 #40

Not a good move, Kamala and Bernie. eom mfcorey1 Feb 2019 #36

Good move Kamala and Bernie womanofthehills Feb 2019 #60

I can agree with that! David__77 Feb 2019 #74

+100! Rhiannon12866 Feb 2019 #75

Let me just say, while I disagree with you that this is bad, I appreciate that your position is JCanete Feb 2019 #73

Good! mountain grammy Feb 2019 #41

Spectacular! ismnotwasm Feb 2019 #42

She obviously won't be speaking about things trump mentioned in his address. George II Feb 2019 #44

OUTRAGEOUS!!! progressoid Feb 2019 #52

Elizabeth now, Kamala maybe later notinkansas Feb 2019 #55

Te hehehehe... disillusioned73 Feb 2019 #71

I am not surprised at Bernie, but Kamala needs better advisors. redstatebluegirl Feb 2019 #76

Probably no big deal, now that I think about it Awsi Dooger Feb 2019 #79

Good grief! Already ODed on SOTU-as-candidate-exposure-event, Hortensis Feb 2019 #81
