    When you post this, isn't it a give away you don't have the intellectual curiosity to deal out this information?

    Yesterday I saw her have a speech about childcare.

    I think her central premise in terms of policy is "make having kids affordable again". I think that's her central theme. A pretty good one in my opinion as it's a very pressing tangible issue for millions of Americans.

    What's amazing is that he slept on that take. Took so many Ls yesterday, went to bed, and decided to dig his heels in on this very popular and persuasive argument.

    The unserious and dangerously weird individual makes this type of loud, dramatic statements on social media.

    In contrast, serious people handle their responsibilities quietly and effectively.

    Trump will next loudly denounce the deal, claiming he could have secured it without exchanging any prisoners.

    The new Trump line of attack is very on-brand. Harris's ethnicity is foreign, not Black, so Trump wants to convince American voters that she cannot be seen as representing them and their interests. Standard divisive politics from the Orange One.

    This is pretty much what I thought happened. The news stories went from Biden is dropping out and there will be an open primary, to Biden is defiantly staying, to Biden actually dropping out and immediately endorsing Harris.

    It makes sense as a power struggle between power brokers in the Dem party wanting an open primary vs those within the Biden admin wanting to retain jobs and power. I figure many people in the Biden admin asked him to endorse Harris and many people outside the admin wanted an open primary.

    When the leftist "fact checkers" say "it's missing context" and then write a long sermon to deny reality, you know it's actually true.

    I ascribe to Occam's Razor.

    The more likely reason was that of pragmatism in immediately endorsing Harris. The election is months away. The VP gets the war chest of donations that the president gets. You don't have to create an entirely new campaign infrastructure and most importantly it would be a disastrous mess for the DNC to not have a definitive candidate this close to the actual election date.

    Also traditionally if the president steps down, the VP is the one that takes his or her place. So it would be a bad look to skip over the VP who happens to be the first woman ever to be one.

    Whenever I see your name pop up in my notifications I always assume a new white embedded Twitter box but I'm shocked you actually posted sentences. Very rudimentary sentences but hey it's your own thoughts at least.

    What is the significance of that regarding any point you are trying to make?

    They've been told that liberals teach kids to hate white people who have descendants that were slaves. So they think these things are gotchas. Their entire industry of talking points are based in straw manning leftists and liberals.

    Damn this is bad.

    Racist president pop-pop needs to hit the links, watch some 1980s WWF reruns, and start working on his presidential library where he can sell The Art of the Deal and blasphemous Bibles for twice the price.

    If you are following Matt Walsh and James O'Keefe, you might need to re-evaluate. A bunch of culture war weirdos.

    He just can't stop himself. He's a sociopath.

    I agree that it's stupid to focus on her race when her policies are so bad.

    I think the gop concentrates on this stuff because they know gen pop favor democrat polices more.

    The GOP talks about how women need to breed more. That's weird. Normal people don't think like that.
