OldMaid 2,130 Posted October 17, 2024 Just finished watching it. Some of you guys are completely unhinged- it wasn’t nearly as bad as some are making out. Brett did a good job of trying to pin her down, although I didn’t appreciate how he repeatedly cut her off in the beginning. She dodged some questions, for sure, but she definitely didn’t come off as incompetent, FFS. I do wish she would have been able to say she owes those mothers an apology, but she’s in a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation. That kinda applies to most of those questions. As VP she shouldn’t really be throwing her boss under the bus, so what good answer can she give? Not that any answer would be good enough for Trump fans. I think her biggest flub was misunderstanding the clip that Brett showed w/Trump. Which by the way, he kinda dodged a real answer there as well. At the end, Brett was nodding along-I wouldn’t be surprised if he secretly votes for her. J/K 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J/K As I said in the other thread- I thought both her and Baier came off well in the interview as they pushed enough from either side for the interview to be challenging but also for her to hit some key points she needed to hit. I'm with you too on the Biden question. She isn't going to throw him under the bus. And really what good would it do her to say "Yeah I noticed he was senile in June of 2023." It is just going to lead to more questions and it will piss off voters in the Democrat party which she doesn't want to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RLLD 4,230 Posted October 17, 2024 I thought she did better than I would have expected. I think her moves to deny the interviewer a follow up question was a good tactic. She was clearly ready for battle but at the same time tempered her anger rather well. It wasn't perfect. He asked the right questions and she deflected properly perhaps half the time. Sometimes she deflected poorly. I can see why those on the right might view it as a big loss for her, but I am not so sure it was. Bottom line, aside from the COVID situation her and Biden were handed a really great situation which they proceeded to ruin. They ruined economic progress for the least among us, the ruined the border, they ruined our foreign policy and generally just made a complete focking mess. Defending against that is not easy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean Mooney 1,983 Posted October 17, 2024 Harris and Biden got handed an economy that was doing fine but had warning signs in 2018 and 2019 of perhaps turning the other way. COVID hit in 2020 and exacerbated those issues to a degree no one could have planned. Some of that was due to Trump policies that were taking full effect, some of that was due to stimulus money being dumped into the economy by both Trump and Biden, some of it was artificially propping up the market, some of that was supply chain stress because of the situation. The border has issues- some of them have been fixed, some have not. Here are some links on border stuff: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-65574725 https://www.piie.com/blogs/realtime-economics/2024/trump-vs-biden-immigration-side-side-policy-comparison https://archive.ph/jjRPT https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/biden-deportation-record A key point from the last source: Quote The 1.1 million deportations since the beginning of fiscal year (FY) 2021 through February 2024 (the most recent data available) are on pace to match the 1.5 million deportations carried out during the four years President Donald Trump was in office. Another point: Quote In the 12 months after Title 42 ended, the Biden administration ramped up deportations under the standard U.S. immigration framework, Title 8, and removed or returned 775,000 unauthorized migrants—more than in any previous fiscal year since 2010. Key points for me are- the economy and US under Trump was not as bad as Democrats want to say and not as good as Republicans want to say. Under Biden the US is not as good as Democrats want to say and not as bad as Republicans want to say 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Instead of focusing on the quality of the person, they focus on the irrelevant. And in the end they hurt themselves. Now they have to live with the person who checked boxes, but really did not have the qualities the position requires. Time and again, Liberals do things for show instead of substance.

For Harris, she is apparently so afraid to speak her mind and announce her positions that she essentially just walks around things. She never speaks her truth, and that should be rather telling.....she knows her truth is pointedly harmful to many people, so making it clear what she will do would lose her votes. So for now she dances and evades answering for her role in the harm of the last four years. I would expect her to speak pointedly about the mistakes at the border and with regard to the economy and clearly outline salient elements of her plan to not repeat those mistakes. This pretense that the border is this long standing problem is sorta true, but she and Joe threw gas on it, and now want to pretend its all someone elses fauly...its not...what happened after then entered office is their fault....because they placated morons on the left who think immigrants should be able to flow into our country as they please....well fock that....and fock them.....
