The session today the Trump team said the audio was messed up which delayed it by 35 minutes. 

The conflicting reports from the organization are that the Trump team was objecting to the live fact checkers who were going to be there as they didn't want fact checks in real time.

My guess is people will believe whatever best fits their narrative so either Trump is yet again aggrieved by the "nasty" media or he wanted to be able to lie without being called on it. 

Of course they and Trump don't want fact checks in real time.

He keeps talking about abortions after birth, like it is a real thing, but that is called infanticide and is illegal everywhere in this county.

The odds are really close now so don't get me wrong, but, Predictit?  Lol They aren't a major betting platform.  They do politics and economic events from New Zealand.   Fake News propping up the POS candidate again.

Real odds are Trump -125 right now.

Vice President Harris:

This afternoon, Donald Trump spoke at the annual meeting of the National Association of Black Journalists and it was the same old show. The divisiveness and the disrespect. The American people deserve better. The American people deserve a leader who tells the truth. A leader who does not respond with hostility and anger when confronted with the facts. We deserve a leader who understands that our differences do not divide us. They are an essential source of our strength

Kamala met with Netanyahu and made statements about where she stands. They were pretty aligned with Trump’s comments actually.

JD Vance also skipped the speech in front of Congress.

She was correct not to attend. 

[The Real timschochet 6,575]

It’s hilarious that you guys are trying to attribute Kamala’s popularity to the media. The truth is that Trump is a terrible candidate with awful ideas. The only reason he was ahead is because Biden seemed too old. The only reason that the election will be close is because of inflation that neither party had anything to do with. But Kamala is young, energetic, and her policies are simply more popular with the American public. That’s the main reason she’ll win. The media has nothing to do with it.

10 Days: Kamala Harris has not held a press conference since emerging as presumptive Democratic nominee

Critics feel Harris is copying President Biden’s 2020 playbook

Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 10 days without holding a press conference since becoming the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee. 

Harris announced that she had locked up the nomination late on July 22, declaring that she had won commitments of backing from a majority of the nearly 4,000 delegates to next month's Democratic National Convention. She has since hit the campaign trail, spoken at various events, and even chatted with reporters here and there, but hasn’t done a formal press conference or wide-ranging interview in the 10 days that have followed. 

Harris, who became the likely nominee without receiving a single primary vote when President Biden announced he would step aside, has been so elusive that The New York Times published excerpts from an interview she conducted last year to see where her answers "land now." 

Much of the Democratic Party — including governors, senators and House members as well as party leaders — quickly coalesced behind Harris following Biden's blockbuster news. But critics have started to take notice that Harris hasn’t faced tough questions since. 

National Review senior writer Noah Rothman asked his social media followers on Wednesday, "When is Kamala Harris going to hold a press conference?" 

The RNC Research account on X noted that she has only done "teleprompter speeches" over the past 10 days, and conservative pundit Ben Shapiro said Harris "has not answered ONE difficult question in the last week and a half."

NewsBusters executive editor Tim Graham expects her to follow President Biden’s 2020 playbook, when he was famously accused of hiding in his basement during the COVID pandemic. 

"Kamala Harris should absolutely hold a press conference. One would expect it when she names her vice-presidential pick. But we cannot expect her to break from Biden's serial avoidance of press conferences," Graham told Fox News Digital.

He said its time to end the war and get it done quickly. This is not helping your cause I believe was his message. 

JD was busy in Ohio campaigning and deferred to whatever Trump said.

Well, Israel could always have ended the war quickly, but your side would probably not like the result.  It is essentially pulling the band aid off quickly, and killing some of the 80% of "innocents" who would vote for Hamas to continue to stay in charge. 

Perhaps you have a different interpretation of "get it done quickly"?

Trump makes some awful mistakes, I'll grant that.  I didn't vote for him in the primary because I thought someone else would have an easier win.  But not everyone wants to see the flaws in their horse.  You've previously admitted that the border situation and the treatment by this administration is unpopular.  Why is it suddenly now you feel like Harris' policies are popular? 

I don't think people hang inflation on her as much as they do the border.  And if they do, blame the Biden administration for that.  It's true, she has a decent chance where Biden had none.  But they are essentially giving her the Biden basement treatment.  This luster they are giving her only stays on until she makes a mistake or some of her unpopular views or the failures of the administration she was part of are questioned. It's going to take Mike Wallace coming back to life and jumping out of the shrubs somewhere for her to ever do an interview apparently.  I can't blame her or her handlers, she's getting the God status treatment without having to get out there.  We learned from Biden that you can pull someone from the retirement home down the road and read a speech off a teleprompter.

Yeah. Trump was saying Israel was getting killed with publicity over their handling of the war.

I took it as he is telling them to make a deal. Killing a ton of more civilians would be even worse for them.

He walks into something like this and can't handle a tough question, looking like the defensive asswipe that he is.

What he did there today gives his hardcore base a boner, but it does quite the opposite when it comes to winning over voters.

He's up against a badass who is all smiles and projects positivity seasoned with funny, snarky remarks about her opponent.

Trump is so focked at this point. Polls are wildly swinging to Harris's favor in the battleground states, and we've got three months to go.

I easily can see a landslide victory for Harris.

She's bringing ideas to the table while he just spits his tired vitriol, pleases his base and gives everyone else few reasons to vote for him.

Love it!
