    That's the worst you got. Meanwhile, Trump and Vance's CV is a mix of insurrection, sexual assault, bankruptcy, convicted felon, cat ladies, a couch, and a bunch of weirdness.

    Also, Walz owned up to his mistakes and took accountability (like a normal human being). He apologized. Have you ever heard Trump own up to anything? That's why he's weirddddddd.

    it’s so amusing to see them flounder trying to find anything that will stick

    So, I’ve read up on this issue about Walz and his military record. I don’t really see where he did anything wrong as to when he retired from the guard. He retired months before they received orders to ship out. He had the right to retire whenever he wanted to. He put in 24 years, which I think is commendable.

    As far as him talking about weapons he carried in war, that was a mistake, but I think when you look at his entire comment, he wasn’t so much trying to puff up his military career, he was emphasizing the weapons they use in war are designed for the battlefield, not for civilian use. It was a mistake, he should have said weapons he trained with for war. But, in the grand scheme of things, this is a pretty small issue, although the republicans are unlikely to let this go anytime soon.

    Most MAGA wouldn't trust Trump with their 15 year old daughter but they'll vote for him as president :confused:

    Personally, I wouldn't let Trump borrow $1000 since he's a guy that never pay his debts so of course I wouldn't trust him to be president :rolleyes:

    Trump sides with domestic terrorists so this isn't surprising.

    He survived the 2010 Republican landslide by a five-point margin that, very impressively, still outran Obama’s 2008 margin in the district. He would win by 15 points in 2012 while Obama only won his district by one point, and would come out of the 2014 red wave unscathed, winning by 9. But his most impressive victory of all may have come in 2016, when he survived a gargantuan 17-point rightward shift in his district to hold on to his seat. Every single one of those performances [was] stellar, and they paint a picture of a political who, at least for a time, had a very real appeal in a working-class district that most other Democrats couldn’t even come close to.

    How did a marxist liberal extremist pull this off? Must’ve been something in the water in his red district?

    I’m confused. We’ve been hearing that the Dems have gone full Hamas and that Tim Walz is a Pro Hamas socialist. But Harris had a Pro-Palestinian heckler kicked out of
    Her and Walz’s rally :eek:

    what you saw in the clip was kamala in her natural form being smug and disregarding their concerns. All she had to say was "we hear you and will get through this together". Instead she kicked them out. Now they're trying to save face

    Really, what SHE said is being highlighted? Really?

    For the most part I really don't get into politics much these days. I'll be honest. I've never voted once in my entire life. I'm black and although it was a proud moment when Obama won, I didn't vote for the guy either time. I really honestly don't give a **** who wins and never have. I lean more liberal in my thinking, but not enough to believe it matters if one candidate wins over the other. Generally, the arguments I've heard over the years pre-trump from conservatives have at least had some merit and some rationale. There were points from both sides that I would consider valid and discussion worthy....

    But now, I'm actually considering going out and simply voting for the first time in my life just to cast a vote against Trump (I still probably won't)…And otherwise I really don't even care if Trump is in office...didn't care when he won the first time...But this time around it'd give me at least momentary satisfaction to see his supporters eat a dick.
