So after being wrong you are gonna double down? He literally agreed to three live debates moderated by the groups you named.
You asked for my opinion, and I was being truthful. I never said the interview was unedited. I just said that CNN said the transcript was the full transcript. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn’t. I was just trying to help you out by giving you the transcript. I don’t know how the TV business works, or what is edited, or what is not. You can believe whatever you want. But, you yourself just said that sometimes editing is not nefarious. So, maybe nothing nefarious was done here. If you want to put your trust in some guy named “Paulie” and his good buddy from college posting stuff on social media, then go right ahead. I’m done here. I can see that you have it in your head what you think has happened here.
He agreed when it was favorable. He wants no part of Harris in a debate, but he can’t back out now. I doubt another debate will happen after 9/10.
Stop with this garbage. He already agreed to a 9/25 nbc debate that the Kamala team has declined. Quit pretending he's the one scared when her team tried hard for last minute changes to the agreed upon ABC format.
Ehh I wouldn’t go that far. She gives answers when pressed. I don’t think it’s a lack of knowledge or command of the policy, as much as she is being very careful to not give Trump and sound bytes to use against her - which is basically the only thing Trump does.
I watched the interview and it was OK not great. Felt that Walz and Harris were both being evasive at times and that when pressed on changing positions just fell back to talking points than any real in depth. I certainly don’t think the interview hurt them electorally and it did what needed to be done. It has followed a pattern of running a disciplined campaign.
Damn, why do y'all keep kissing the ring in the center of Trump's ass? You specifically at times want to be swiss clock accurate on one thing then be full QAnon on others. When losing you can always fall back on the "both sides" statement. Football season can't get here soon enough...
I was referring to NBC's own article: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/20...ts-face-harris-3-debates-september-rcna165840 You'll have to fill me in on what's the latest with Qanon. Agree on football season. Go Texans
I have no idea how the TV business works either, but I think we do know something. We understand how partisan politics works and how trustworthy Twitter is. So when someone claims something in a tweet, I automatically take it with a huge grain of salt. With certain posters, I automatically assume it's false until proven otherwise. There are a few posters here who take tweets and run with them without any care for verification. If I engage, I ask for the source of that information (if I can't verify it myself), and usually, when I do, they don’t reply, which tells me they know it’s extremely weak but didn’t care that it was.
The MSM should definitely release the part where Kamala said "who's d*ck do I gotta s*ck to only get easy questions?"
I read the transcript. It was a SMART, disciplined interview. It's interesting to see Harris with the more technical answers (and I assume they come across as less emotional in the video) that stayed to her campaign script, while Walz gives more emotional answers connected to the average American.
Some on the right have been foolishly suckered into the talking point from Trump that Harris is a stupid person. Others know better, but they would lie in hope to persuade the general population. Politics and all. Anyone who honestly watches or reads the transcript of this interview and compares her answers to those of Trump in his interview can see it's pretty clear who can articulate and answer a question (pretty smart) and who babbles with nonsensical answers (pretty stupid). Harris is not as articulate or sharp as Mayor Pete, but she stands on her own pretty well. Trump is quite dumb and arrogantly so.
Dude, you need to pay closer attention. Trump has said that he would do the 9-10 debate. Then he said that ABC was fake news and he would not. Then he said that he would do the debate. Trump can't make up his g*dd*mn mind. ... You also do not know how debates happen. The two parties discuss debate parameters and dates, and reach a consensus, and then schedule them with NBC/ABC/CBS/Fox/PBS/ et al. Trump can not unilaterally say seriously that there will be a NBC debate on a given date, which is what he did. Kamala has said that she will attend the 9-10 debate. She has said that she would be fine if the mics were not muted. Biden wanted the mics muted since the last Trump/Biden covid-addled Trump would not SFTU. As a favor to Trump, Kamala dropped the restriction and did not demand the mic be un-muted or she would not attend. Trump has threatened to not attend multiple time and no one here would be surprised if Trump does not debate on 9-10.
The debates are really much a do about nothing. Trump will not answer any question given to him and just start his stump speech. And if Trump gets cornered into answering a tough question, he will verbally attack the questioner and proceed to not answer the question. Imagine if Kamala did the same? The MSM would treat her like red headed stepchild.
