    harris is making a huge mistake by not going on joe rogan. thats the exact demographic she needs to win over (young white males). a sit-down and 2 hour conversation could have been a great opportunity to give those voters a chance to hear her. i think rogan would have been more hard on her than he was on trump, but would have done a fair interview. she would have had a platform to talk about her policies and an open mic to go after trump.

    this is the kind of stuff that can cost you an election...just ask hillary...howard stern was trying to get her in 2016 and she refused, but again, thats the exact demographic she needed to win over. missed opportunity.

    Yeah, couldn't disagree with you more on this point. She only has so much time and is running a 100x smarter campaign than Hillary Clinton did. Young white incels is not a place where she's going to make up ground. If and when she can win the election, then the democratic party needs to try to make some ground there, show some sympathy, etc. Not a good use of her time with 10 days or so to go. The Rogan demographic is busy cut-and-pasting tweets of Russian generated disinformation. I mean, just look at them in this forum, LOL.

    EDIT: I'll tell you about a waste of time -- Trump going after the "corporal punishment" vote (that he didn't already have?). Example two: Trump having a campaign event in Madison Square Garden -- to what, win over the city that has hated his guts for the last 40 years, LOL? No, probably to intimidate them. Either way, not a good use of his limited energy.

    So you agree. She is a moron. Got it.
    BTW, she already lost the election. A long time ago.

    I know right?

    She is a stupid, empty vessel, w**** that no one likes and has no real value that cackles and with an empty womb has no real purpose other than sexually servicing dominant men and meeting their needs.

    Oh I forgot lazy, she is a lazy woman as well and DEI hire… that should go in there too.

    Maybe we can get her one of those masks that the Pilgrims made their women wear when they were gossips or expressed disdain at something being unfair.

    Maybe Trump can call her piggy instead of r****ded or stupid.

    Do you really think she is running a 100x better campaign than Hillary?

    I suspect he is going to MSG in hopes to get the popular vote too. Hillary won with 2.1%. Harris is running around ~1.3% and dropping.

    I understand this is sarcasm, but its a bit of a reach. Lets just agree she is grossly incompetent for the role of POTUS. Just as I am and just as you are. She is middle management material. nothing wrong with that.

    That said, whoever is running the Democrat party for the last 3 elections are grossly incompetent. Obama destroyed McCain and Romney. No contest. WTF happened after that? Hillary? Biden? Harris? Walz? big fat LOL. Are you really telling me those 4 are better than Yang?

    rogans demographic is more than young white incels. sure, there are plenty of listeners who wont support her no matter what, but i do believe that there are enough where it could make a difference. again, these are the exact voters she needs to win over. campaigning with beyonce isnt changing anyones mind.

    and to go on a few days after trump would have been great PR. listen to trump being a lying, rambling buffoon for 3 hours and then she goes on and comes off like a rational, normal person would have been a great contrast. she could have used it as an opportunity to address the stuff he said like abolishing income tax in favor of tariffs, for example. theres a lot of his listeners whose impression of her could have been changed.

    EDIT: another thing...harris going on rogan a couple days after trump would have pissed him off bigly...especially if rogan was the least bit cordial to her. trump might have even started attacking rogan, which might help further peel off support. in that respect, not going on is a tactical blunder.

    also, to bring up hillary again...i think that harris is making the same mistakes she did. hillary could have gone on howard stern in 2016 and perhaps swayed enough middle aged white guys to her side. she did end up going on a couple years ago and even though im no fan of hes, i thought she did a great interview and humanized herself in a way that id never heard before.

    i didnt say she was a moron. you dont got it at all.

    trump is a moron though...and a bad person, a convicted felon, a pathological liar, an authoritarian nationalist wanna-be dictator and an insurrectionist. thats enough to make me vote for whoever is running against him.

    The polls aren't looking good. Clinton's polling was way better. Time to go hail Mary.

    She's garbage. I'm not really interested in devoting more time to talking about her. Hoping the Texans turn it around

    Huh. But both those opinions don't hold up very well.

    a. Most people I know in her home state actually do not "hate Kamala." Most of them liked her as their senator. (Not everyone, but most.) For the millions of people planning to vote for her, it's a weird take to think they all actually "hate" her.
    I think it's more accurate to say "most FOX viewers hate Kamala," or something like that. Maybe that's what you mean.

    b. You can dislike her and not favor her -- maybe she looks overly ambitious to some people -- but she's intelligent and also a talented attorney. That doesn't make me like her but just calling the evidence like it sets out.
    What makes me like her more is the people she's surrounding herself with so far. Competent career professionals and whip-smart experts. That's a pretty striking contrast to her opponent, unfortunately, where many people he's worked closely with not only will not support her, but openly warn us against supporting him. (I've never seen anything like that.)

    Not trying to influence your vote or opinion, but I hope we can all do better than flinging evidence-free absolutes. Our nation will have so many challenges that we have to do better than flinging evidence-free absolutes and reposting Xeets, etc.

    I'd rate all of those people ahead of Trump in terms of intelligence. Biden and Hillary are perhaps the most qualified people for President I've ever seen, and I did not vote for Hilary. Walz is a guy I'd love to see running the country.

    I actually agree Harris is best suited for a lesser role than President. Isn't it telling that Donald Trump's economic plan is substantially worse than Harris's bad plan?

    Your edit is why your first paragraph is off-base IMO. You have to see the vision. The reason Trump is having a rally is obviously for down-ballot congressional races, and to drum up general enthusiasm so those people vote Republican.

    And Hillary ran a better campaign than Kamala to start off, but she definitely fell off especially after being pushed into that van. Kamala has run one of the worst campaigns of all time and it'll be even more evidence come election day.

    You're entitled to your opinion. Respectfully I am done discussing these two
