How long will it be before Kamala does an in-depth interview or even a press conference where she takes questions

[A2SG]

Ah, since you opened the door, and made this conversation personal, I assume that means you won't mind me doing it in return.

Well, that wasn't my intent, but let's see how you do.

The fact of the matter is that you don't care what anyone outside your circle thinks, as long as your "party" wins.

I do, in fact, listen to what other people think. And say. Then I decide, for myself, how to react.

I do, in fact, occasionally disagree with democrats. Believe it or not.

That's a really selfish, and hateful way of being. We matter too, you know. And our opinions are not garbage.

I never claimed or implied they were. I've even said as much, recently, on this forum, somewhere. If you choose to infer otherwise, that's your business, not mine.

-- A2SG, I'll admit to being snarky or sarcastic on occasion, though. All in good fun....

Perhaps you forget, she has only been running for President for 17 days.

She held no press conferences when she ran for president before, none as Vice President and none so far in this campaign. It is obvious to any thinking person she is unwilling or unable to answer real substantive questions. If she pretends to be qualified to be president she should at least pretend to answer a real question.

Day 25 of being surrounded by reporters and multiple request for a sit down or press conference - day 25 of deflections and still not platform.

Aren't platforms usually post-convention? The DNC hasn't yet happened. But, it will happen. Patience is a virtue.

 

[RoBo1988]

Simple question - She's bloviating about debating her opponent, but has not even given an interview yet.

As long as it takes.

Given her non scripted answers, I don't blame her handlers one bit for delaying.

Run out the clock!

 

[Aldebaran]

No part of that was an attack, actually.

And yet I noticed the word "you" (or some variation of) 8 times in your post.
Seems that I became the new topic for your attacks.

 

[Aldebaran]

An actual few minutes of her spontaneously fielding questions from reporters. She did so well, it went viral.

Not viral enough for you to provide a link to it.

I believe the platform is usually at the beginning of the convention, but either way, the convention is next week. Tomorrow they'll have some economic specifics to complain about. (She's doing a speech on economic policy tomorrow, and unlike the caudillo of Mar-a-Lago, she is unlikely to ramble on for hours on other topics.)

Not unless her teleprompter is loaded with a speech that makes her do so.

She's scheduled for an interview....with Walz.

Seriously, this is how badly they want her away from real questions.

What's the convention for?

It’s not working with independents

I said on another thread, I see lots of "college polls" but very few real ones....they're difficult and not drummed up overnight.

I think she did get a bump in popularity. I don't think it's huge.

I'm pretty sure even Biden's campaign website laid out a platform that covered a host of issues already.

Together, we can finish the job for the American people. Are you with us? Join our campaign to re-elect Joe Biden today!

Yup...still there.

No...not having a platform is extremely unusual and it's the result of not planning to run Harris to begin with. It's been a little over 3 weeks. I'm sure something will get put together before long.

I feel like you don’t understand the function of the word “you.” Just because the word “you” appears in a sentence does not mean you are being personally attacked.

Either that, or my husband is a saint for surviving my ruthless daily attacks of “what do you want for dinner?”

 

[Tropical Wilds]

Not viral enough for you to provide a link to it.

Did anybody ask for it? Because the person I was talking to said they were pulling it up as it was viral enough they could do so without an issue.

If it was you that wanted one, you could have asked without resorting to passive aggressive snark. Since it was an exchange between me and somebody else, it didn’t dawn on me a third party would interject all offended I didn’t furnish them with a link to peruse in the discussion they weren’t a part of.

Then I'm glad we're not married to each other. That way, I'm not the one who has to listen to this every night:

Let’s be real. They could write you a letter, you’ll complain they used black ink and not blue. They could cure cancer and you’d complain it wasn’t heart disease. They could make gas $1.25 a gallon and you’d complain it wasn’t $1.

There is nothing they can do to make you happy and, if they did, you would contort yourself into a narrative to invalidate it because you don’t want them to make you happy.

Still waiting for that link.

Weird comment but ok.

He doesn’t have to hear that every night, and if he did, he’d know it wasn’t a personal attack, but a statement that there’s nothing she could do he wouldn’t find fault with.

Still waiting for that link.

Still waiting for you to ask.
