There’s a reason she was the back-up: Thoughts on the Harris hysteria

They surely knew we'd notice, right?

But let’s pretend otherwise.

From the article:


She literally sounds inebriated.

Insightful...

I am meeting with a lot of folks. And the work that we have begun is the work that is going to be ongoing. There is no question, and I said this from the beginning, that our approach to this issue has to be with a commitment to a long-term investment and it has to be a commitment to consistency, the United States has to be consistent. There were times when were more engaged and we saw good results, less engaged, and we can see where the work and the partnerships then deteriorate. So I am committed to ensuring that we engage in an active way on the root causes, on addressing the cause and effect, and also being partners in the western hemisphere, understanding that we have a responsibility and if we ignore that responsibility it will visit itself upon us in a very domestic way.​

She may not be the most concise speaker but at least she didn’t veer off into sinking boats, batteries, and sharks.

Isn't she supposed to be better than, rather than same as?

I don’t expect every leader to be talented speaker. Speech writers usually make up the difference.

Brilliant!

This is immediately what I thought...

That's one way around it I suppose.

Especially former prosecutors.

Especially former prosecutors.

It's weird. On the one hand, Democrats want you to believe that Harris is a shrewd prosecutor, and because of that, Trump would stand no chance in an unscripted debate with her. But on the other hand, they also admit that she isn't a talented speaker and needs speech writers to "make up the difference".

One would expect an effective prosecutor to be a good speaker. Your whole job as a prosecutor is to speak convincingly. The mind, it boggles.

Supposed to be and is.

"... a commitment to a long-term investment ..."

Translation of Dem-speak: "... a commitment to long-term spending". Nothing new here, move on.

 

[Hammster]

You must not have listened to her talk.

Too bad incoherent ramblings are the norm from the alternative on offer.

'Is the same as', or 'is no better than', or 'is just as bad as' isn't much of an endorsement.

 

[durangodawood]

'Is the same as', or 'is no better than', or 'is just as bad as' isn't much of an endorsement.

Agreed. And I would not say such things myself.

Ah I guess I misread your post. It probably didn't compute since there's such a slew of incoherent rambling quotes from Harris.

I have listened to both talk. Poor Donald used to be coherent; he could talk in complete paragraphs with complex clauses without getting lost. Nowadays, he is disjointed, repetitious and rambles terribly. Maybe you are not familiar with the Donald of yesteryear - he wasn't pleasant but he was articulate. #Sad

Both Trump and Harris ramble incoherently. It's odd that you only seem concerned with one of their ramblings.

I mean, what is she even talking about here?
