    a coordinated attack implies someone's doing the coordinating. who is doing the coordinating? I assume it's the Russians?

    I am not sure who was involved, but apparently some tweets were forwarded observing that Harris is half Indian (from India) and half Jamaican, and was actually raised by her Indian parent. And then the usual unhinged racially oriented vitriol followed, by the usual Democrat left type sources, as referenced above.

    Better than incompetent, ruthless and bigoted, which describes Mr trump.

    I'd like to see a Harris - Buttigieg ticket. That would excite me. The bigoted trolling aimed at Harris just gets me more interested in her. After her 8 years in office, the country will be ready to see Pete Buttigieg running for the presidency. In my humble opinion. I'd prefer Mayor Pete at the top of the ticket in 2020, but I'm being realistic. The most important thing is to win in 2020 and get The Bigoted Liar out of office before he completely ruins our country.

    I don't see "Ms Clinton" in Kamala Harris at all. In fact, I think it's a weird comparison, excepting the "competent and ruthless" part. I agree with that and don't mind it. Why? Think about who she would be running against.

    not sure how coordinated it is, but real "fake news" is shifting into high gear already. Pretty sad, no matter who's behind it.

    Sick, and we'll see the fake crap repeated here by the usual people. I won't see as much of it as some will, though. My ignore list is pretty extensive. About 3 years ago, there was hardly anyone on it. Times change. My degree of patience certainly did.

    Has any of this Trump campaign or Russia involvement been confirmed?

    Dumb conservative lies become memes organically, too, AFAIK.

    And by the Democrat left mass media, certainly including CNN, the New York Times, the Washington Post, NBC and many more, from whom we see fresh examples what seems like numerous times daily.

    If I had to make a bet this far out, this would be my prediction.

    And I'll say, a debate between Buttigieg and Pence would be must-see TV, especially on topics of faith.

    I understand dirty tricks are, well, dirty . . . but why is anyone donating to Marianne Williamson's campaign a bad thing?

    The fact that the usual suspects are so triggered tells me she is a legitimate threat. Go Kamala.

    Not everything needs to be coordinated to spread. You aren't black enough. You aren't born here. You aren't real American. Even Canadian born white looking guy isn't spare. It's all part of you aren't part of White American. It the type of things that once someone find something as "evidence" to support those claims, the white nationalist will consume and spread. It doesn't matter how untrue it is, it will live on. The Russian, the Chinese, the GOP, the whatever that understand this just need to plant a story, push it a little bit and boom... the worse of human nature takes over.

    Trump supporters and people will try everything to get back to the lesser of two evil. With more understanding and awareness, doubt it would be as effective this time.

    She ate up time in the debate that could have been used by the others, giving them each a few more minutes. In fact, I would have liked to have seen Montana Governor Steve Bullock on that stage in her place. That she was there at all was a waste of everyone's time. That was the intent, in my opinion. I don't like it.

    Good for Bernie and the other Democratic candidates calling out the lies aimed at Senator Harris by trump supporters. I’d rather see some of the trump supporters call out this racist attack on a candidate, instead of agreeing and even encouraging it. It’s very disappointing.

    It’s nothing like the Republicans back when they were actual Republicans, not the bizarre, twisted version we see today, led by trump, which is nothing like the Republican Party I watched for decades. The one that helped get the Civil Rights legislation passed when LBJ pushed John Kennedy’s intent through. Many Democrats knew it would cost the party the South, and got it passed anyway, helped by Republican leaders like Senate Minority Leader Everett Dirksen, who must be rolling over in his grave because of the bigotry his party is pushing today.
