    Give me a break. The whole "Kamala doesn't do interviews" talking point is nonsense. It's a talking point you guys put out there nonstop because you are trying to troll the MSM talking heads because you guys know the MSM has to make themselves the story. They can't resist in overstating their relevance.

    This is a way to work the refs for better calls just like Phil Jackson would do with the Lakers when they were already getting the David Stern treatment. You guys want Tim Donaghy to make sure Chris Webber cannot lay a finger on Pau Gasol while Kobe is allowed to kick Doug Christie in the balls every play because the refs don't want the narrative that they are "anti-Lakers".

    Same sh$t. Different game. Kamala gives interviews. They just aren't creating enough gotcha moments so you have to bully the media into thinking they have to prove they are hard on Kamala to prove they are not bias so they bully the Kamala camp into more and more interviews to try and get gotcha moments so you can get your "basket of deplorables" type of taglines you can make go viral, and hit Kamala.

    Kamala's camp is smart by not playing into the hands of the MAGA camp and their online activists like yourself. She's trying to win an election, not win an appeasement award.

    You can do these type of interviews if you have a persona where you say your key phrases regardless of the question, and frustrate the interviewer by never answering questions.

    Kamala just isn't that type of politician. She's more of a thoughtful explainer than she is a teller.

    Example on the left is Bernie who is a teller. Not an explainer. Obama is an example of an explainer. It doesn't matter the question. Bernie will answer with the same response about income inequality, and billionaires. You could ask Bernie about Chapel Roan's new album, and you'd get the same answer on billionaires, and income inequality.

    It's just what he does, and Trump does the same thing but instead of speaking about something important like income inequality, he just repeats the same tag lines about "they are coming over our border. It'll terrible. The worst we've ever seen. They are sooo bad. We are going to have the best economy. It was the greatest they've ever seen. blah blah".

    That's why Trump can do interviews anytime he wants (which actually is much less nowadays than you think), and Bernie does interviews. Because the questions don't matter because they have the permission and ability to ignore the question, and just say their lines.

    Democrats should learn from Bernie on this, but the fact is if it isn't your current personality, and skill then you shouldn't put yourself in a situation to allow a bad faith self serving media propagandist the ability to take advantage of you, and twist your explanations into propaganda. Use your voice in your own language under your terms. Just make sure your message is getting out to those it needs to get out to.

    More like the friend who wants to have an affair with his friends wife so he encourages his friend to cheat on his wife with one of his wife's friends so his friends wife will want to have an affair with him.

    Basso, Commodore, OSTrig... these guys have told us loud and clear they are online activists for Trump. Everything they say here is self serving or MAGA serving. A critique on Kamala is just them saying "you should do this to help Trump win." Kamala's campaign should listen to what the propaganda is saying to understand why they are saying it... but most of the time the outcome should be to do the opposite of what the activists are telling her to do.

    My neighbors golf instructor is an albino Croatian with Down Syndrome and is also a huge Trumper.

    I think the election is wrapped up for Trump unless the Democrats lure Haitians to the ballot box with promises that there are cats in the ballot boxes.

    I just don't understand why we have to take immigrants from **** hole countries? Haitians - AIDS...... Venezuelans? Lazy Mexicans? How many do we need? Muslims? JIHAD.... Indians? Vance's wife is ENOUGH..... Asians? Have you been to California? Why can't we get wealthy men from Scandinavian countries? Maybe desperate women from Eastern Europe? Is that too much to ask for?

    I don't think so? I mean I don't want them coming over as immigrants... but I have never considered being Croatian a disability.

    per: Kamala's interview on Oprah
    Harris said she owns guns and we shoot an intruder at her home.

    How will this effect the potential of future school shootings?

    My guess is not at all. If the next school shooter says they were inspired by Harris' use of the castle doctrine, then I'll admit I was wrong.

    If the shooter is pro-LGBT or from a single-parent home, it's Kamala's blame by default.

    What a stupid question. Does anybody think this deserves an answer?

    Literally zero democrats advocate for NO access to firearms for law abiding citizens who mean the regulatory requirements. Either you know this and are just acting like a jackass or you are the dumbest person in America.
