Kamala Harris interviewed by Brett Baier

[Bradskii]

...let alone raping and murdering those who do.

It's kinda hard to stomach these demands that you should be cleaning the country of people who have committed crimes and sexually assaulted women when the guy who is trying to convince you to do it exactly matches the definition of 'the scum' (his term) he says are the problem.

This is the Theatre of the Absurd. A true tragi-comedy. Stoppard at his best.

I think someone is living in dreamland.

And I think that MAGA follows are living a nightmare.

Even Harris can't think of much to say positive about herself when asked by friendly reporters as to why we should vote for her. She only has anti-Trump rhetoric to spew out, and her followers do the same as a result.

This has no connection to reality. She makes plenty of positive points for her election that have nothing to do with Trump. You may not find her policies positive, but others (the ones she is trying to convince to vote) do find them so.

 

[Yarddog]

Then you must not have seen the first one.

Yep. Baier asked the question but wouldn't allow Harris to speak, so she let Baier answer it. Well done Kamala.

 

[Yarddog]

oh she got bullied alright and it showed!

Baier tried but she wouldn't allow it and Baier back off somewhat. When she got control, she kicked it.

That's NOT what I saw...all she did was dodge his questions or instead of actually answering the questions, she gave her typical word salad or "it was Trump". I was actually impressed with Brett...

This happened with Hillary too. It seemed the lion's share of her campaign was "I'm not Donald Trump".

Well, to be fair....in both cases, that's a pretty good reason to vote for them.

-- A2SG, above and beyond any other possible reasons....

He let her speak. She just wanted to do everything but answer. I can post the clip if you are not remembering correctly.

Since it didn't work the first time around, it seems less likely to work this time around when so many fondly remember what a Trump presidency is like. "Never Trump" folks aside of course. But Harris already has their vote no matter what she says or does. They better hope there's enough of them to tip the scales in her favor.

 

[Oompa Loompa]

Vocabulary problem. People are not "illegal." They are "undocumented."
Illegals is a prejudicial word, seemingly supporting Trump's lie that they are rapists, vermin, etc
Most if them are "huddled masses yearning to breathe free" like our mostly European ancestors.

If they do not have any documentation that allowes them to enter or remain in the country, they are doing so illegally. Therefore, they are illegal immigrants. I don't understand how that can be so difficult to grasp. I am curious as to what Mexico does with undocumented immigrants? Perhaps Trump could do the same.

 

[Fantine]

At least the legals had the right to be in the country in the first place. The illegals don't have an excuse for being here, let alone raping and murdering those who do.

And that's what bothers me. The scapegoating. Prospective dictators need to choose an "enemy" and bring the rest of us up to a lather of hatred. The prospective dictator claims he is the solution.
The truth is always far more complex and multidimensional. And the prospective dictator is never the solution.

Harris recently proposed a policy to give families help to care for older family members at home--and she had a way to pay for it.
...
We all know that the benefit we could provide with those savings would be small, but it would be a start.

Contradiction? So, it looks like this Harris' proposal is not inherently self-funded and will increase the federal deficit.

 

[o_mlly]

If you think it's obvious that the majority of people who you'd think to consult on their opinion as to who has been the worst president have considered that to be Trump, then you'll get a lot of agreement.

? Your sample (academics) is certainly not randomly selected.

So, anyone familiar with statistics would immediately dismiss the poll as rubbish. You should too.

Funded by the savings the federal government will realize by negotiating drug prices. The first ten drugs are just the beginning.

 

[DaisyDay]

Does it equally bother you when a person in jail or prison is referred to as an inmate? Or when a person convicted of a felony is referred to as an “inmate”?

Is “inmate” an adjective?

Or how about when Donald Trump is referred to as a criminal, felon, or any other number of derogatory terms?

Apt terms for a criminal (noun), a felon (noun), sexual assaulter (noun), liar (noun), fraudster (noun), insurrectionist (noun), etc. He is notably not referred to as “an incontinent” , etc.

Funded by the savings the federal government will realize by negotiating drug prices. The first ten drugs are just the beginning.

Show me the source for the rest of the proposed "savings".

You do know that Medicare is already facing near term funding depletion, right?
You do know that Medicare will necessarily increase monthly premiums to all beneficiaries for Parts B and D to avoid insolvency, right?
You do know that the effected pharmaceutical companies will be dis-incentivized to invest in the development of new drugs, right?

 

[Yarddog]

You must not have watched the interview because after asking the question, Kamala tried to answer but Baier kept talking over her. He kept changing the numbers but he never allowed her to speak freely so she stopped and let Baier answer the question he asked.

I wish Fox News would interview Trump with the same fire that Baier showed to Harris. He would fall apart because he can't handle anything he perceives as disrespect from the media.

I’ll find the clip since your memory is off.

She sent us to a website. As far as directly answering any questions, she didn’t.
