    This is another example of MAGA activists reposting a video on social media. Assuming that nobody will actually watch the video, and TELLING YOU that OMG THIS IS HORRIBLE!!

    Here's what really is said here:

    -GOP Pollster Frank Lunz apparently believes that he speaks for "The American People"
    -This Australian Journalist likes to keep going back to anonymous rumors that Kamala Harris is mean to staff
    -Australian 60 minutes production puts in ominous Exorcist like piano melody to play up a dramatic theme and vibe.
    -Kamala's staff member refutes that, but does say she does set high standards for staff but makes sure you have the means to achieve goals
    -Lunz says her being demanding to staff doesn't matter to American voters
    -Lunz says she needs to make sure American votes know where she stands on issues and know that she'll fight for them

    This isn't some ground breaking bombshell report, but MAGA activists like you will try any tactic to help Trump win this election.

    Trump is less radical in some issues but he is also almost 80 years old womanizer.....

    He would build a wall but will overlook the other holes illegal refugees are flooding thru.

    Trump is almost a guarantee for no international politics but couple national agendas at best.

    I like Harris more as a personality but none of them should be President IMO.

    This is Lunz carrying the Rs's water, as usual.

    46% of the voters (aka MAGAs) have zero care about where their candidate stands on "policy" or "issues". They only care that their candidate fights for them.

    Lunz want the Ds to publish a full set of policies ... so that the Rs can find that one policy that is a bridge too far for any and all undecided voters ... which reminds me of

    Do you know why you don't like Kamala Harris? Like have you stopped to think beyond what you've heard that makes you think she's whatever you think she is, and judge her based on value based policy positions that affect your daily life?

    Forget the personalities:

    -Child tax credit? Help or hurt?
    -Another tax break for billionaires that'll add to national debt? help or hurt?
    -Restoring Roe vs Wade? Have a wife or daughters? Something goes wrong in a pregnancy. Do you want government intervention or freedoms?
    -Affordable care act/Health Insurance? Keep in place protections from pre-existing conditions that the ACA provides or repeal as Trump wants to?

    Just to name a few. Keep in mind I don't believe you'd purposefully subject yourself to right wing propaganda, but it's always there to influence voters that I would guess are in your circle. So I'd just ask respectfully to realize that with Kamala, it's likely you've just been told that she is stupid, or she kackles, or that she's a slut or whatever but you might actually might not even know exactly firsthand who she is anyways, BUT it is clear to know where she stands on issues that do affect your life.

    Just food for thought so you make the best decision in November for you and your family.

    Not a fan of political ads usually but this is one is effective and powerful. This aired in suburban homes across swing states will drive out the woman vote

    Nah breh, she is charismatic as hell though, I admit.

    But neither is suited to stopping illegal immigration IMO. I do not have a problem with her per se, yeah I also fear uber leftists who vandalize.

    I am just stating enough moderate people will vote for Trump because they think he is the Lesser Evil which he is not.

    You do realize that the main issue is the political and economical instability in Central America and the economic STABILITY we have here in the US correct? There's no stopping illegal immigration unless those countries are fixed and if the US is still prosperous (which I think we both would agree is a good thing???).

    However Kamala has committed to signing the conservative Senate bill that Trump killed which is supported by nearly everyone. It was only killed because Trump wanted immigration instability going into the election to help him. Logic would state that if Trump wanted instability that the bill that Kamala supports should help quite a bit.

    Immigration is a challenge yes, and maybe you don't think either side has a solution, but there are some components here that should help you make the better decision in November.

    I mean you can reduce demand of illegal immigration by being tough on crime and arresting and giving prison sentences to business owners who hire them but that would be cruel to people with some power not cruel to the powerless migrant and America loves solving problems when it can be cruel to the powerless groups rather than the powerful group.

    In America we got a fetish over being cruel to the powerless while going on our knees for the powerful. Old American tradition.

    Yeah it's like my post in another thread about the right way of solving problems with foreign countries. Why don't we just kick some a$$ today, feel good about ourselves, and worry about the outcome later on. The right loves to act like they were against W's wars in Iraq and Afghanistan but in reality they've learned nothing, and are probably worse.

    You think a war against Sadam and Iraq was unpopular, and had fallout..... go to war with Iran, and let's see how things turn out. You want a solution to immigration... let's just put brown people in detention camps, treat them cruelly, and if it costs too much well... look the other way while Trump's guy Stephen Miller takes action to save some money caring for those brown people in camps. That'll work out for the United States to handle in a KICK A$$ kind of way.

    These problem are hard, but there's no solution that doesn't ultimately require a political or diplomatic solution to really fix in a way that doesn't ultimately make things worse.

    I think the one talking point that most want to bring up that puzzles me the most is the immigration one...

    Everyone keeps trying to say how tough Trump and how weak Kamala is..

    News flash there was a Bill in place that would have solved a lot of the immigration issues.. not all but at least 80% and this was a bi-partisan bill that was agreed upon by both sides.. It was Trump who told his minions not to sign the Bill....

    So please let me know how Trump is tougher than Kamala on immigration and the border...

    I think most people are sloppy thinkers and they do not really take the time to distinguish:
    (1) Trump is "tough on immigration" (which he is clearly not, including the feeble partial wall-building)
    (2) Trump is "tough on immigrants" (which he clearly is, give or take his own eastern-bloc robot wife, b/c he's a bigot and also says horrible things about them)

    If he was smart.. Which he is NOT...

    He would have told his minions to sign the Bill and then take a victory lap...

    The Maga could have used that to say they got what they wanted and were able to secure the border with a Dem President and the Senate Majority...

    This........he could have even claimed he would have used it for the election, but he was worried about Americans so for the good of the country he got the gop to do the right thing. IMO that would have carrier a ton of weight, but were talking about trump here and he doesnt give one **** about any of us

    How maga thinks otherwise is the best political maneuver in years....................hell, as I`vd said a thousand times, my parents fell for it hook, line and sinker with the help of fox and Facebook

    Harris lost the Teamsters endorsement? Didn't she claim she had their endorsement? Another lie. She is no better than Trump.

    Feel free to fact check
