    They had a word and the word was that they ran for the nomination and didn't win that so weren't running for the office of President.

    They refuse to believe that she can speak off the cuff. I fully admit she has inelegant, rambling moments. But, she is also capable of speaking well in settings like this and delivering a clear message like in the debate. Remember how they used to always claim Obama couldn't speak without one? It's nothing new.

    And they do this while their demigod rants like a lunatic and speaks at a fourth grade level for hours on end like an Eastern Bloc dictator.

    Also most of these are short edited. There’s several times there have been posts and retweets of only a few seconds of claiming Harris has no policy and can’t talk about policy when a longer clip shows her talking about policy just a few seconds later.

    We stayed with our good friends that happen to be black on Martha's Vineyard a few years back.
    There is a descent amount of "Black Folks" there in a neighborhood called the Inkwell.

    I suspect he does not live there in that section.

    Harris can speak articulately just fine. She’s no Obama, but she is well above the average citizen. The idea that she is stupid is similar to the claim that she stole all the FEMA money. It’s a falsehood driven by an active disinformation campaign.

    Trump can’t articulate much of anything, speaks at a 4th-grade level, and is often incomprehensible. If Harris spoke like him, she would be labeled far worse than what MAGA are labeling her today.

    The double standard is so obvious, it’s ridiculous.

    Must be because everyone who thinks she is unfit for the role is a racist and a fascist and a Nazi.

    Nope, it's because of an active disinformation campaign, as I made clear, and I never mentioned race. Even the mainstream media is affected, so I don't blame you for being influenced.

    I wasn't mocking you with this one, but certain other posters.

    She flunked the California bar exam -- at a time when it was pretty easy to pass. It's harder now.

    Trump speaks extemporaneously with no notes and no teleprompter for hours, knowing that one slip up will be made into headlines for days by the corrupt media. Trump has also mastered the form of EFFECTIVE communication. He uses simplicity and repetition -- but there is no doubt is a purposeful strategy and he's excellent at it. It's the kind of stuff that is taught in training workshops for the sales force. Direct, to the point, repeat what's important. Kamala is word salad hair-brained mess. And socially awkward and insecure.

    Also, it's just a strange metric to measure by. Who cares if a person makes a speech and uses a teleprompter? That is a smart thing to do, not any kind of a flaw. In fact I think a person who could use one but didn't is making the less intelligent choice.

    If the opponents are bringing up teleprompters as an issue, they don't have anything real to talk about.

    What is it about GOP cheerleaders posting tweets and memes thinking it is a valid way of debate and discussion. Are they supporting their hero Musk? Can they not think for themselves? Do they think posting someone else's biased opinion somehow validates their biased opinion?

    Kudos for discovering that the California bar exam exists! But let’s not confuse "pretty easy" with historically has a 50% pass rate for first-timers. I know math can be tricky, but 50% isn’t exactly a cakewalk. Harris passed on her second try—like many successful attorneys. But really, who needs the bar exam when you can just have someone else take it for you, like Trump did for the SAT?

    Now, about Trump’s speeches being "extemporaneous"—calling them that is like saying a script for Keeping Up with the Kardashians is Pulitzer-worthy. If by 'mastering effective communication' you mean sounding like a word salad generator hooked up to a broken record, then sure, he’s practically Shakespeare.

    And if you think Harris is "socially awkward", I recommend avoiding any video of your idol dancing. Trust me, it’s an experience best left unseen.

    Howard Stern is right. Harris was literally in law enforcement, while Trump is literally a convicted felon.

    No lie in there. Literally a direct quote.
