Kamala has faced men like Trump before: rapists, con men, frauds criminals. She’s used to men like Trump, used to putting them in their place. I keep reading this…. is it true but unconfirmed?….

He said something to the effect of since Biden has dropped out the debate should be on fox because he thinks abc is biased or some shit. He hasn’t explicitly said he won’t debate her but would also not be surprised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 4378 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Clinton was supposedly a great lawyer but she didn't exactly tear him a new arse in the debates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has as many skeletons in her closet as trump (or at least bill does) no way she could afford to go for him to the degree she was able to without getting a lot of dirty laundry aired. He knew it too, with his smug bullshit throughout. He doesn’t seem quite so cocky this time, at least so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21615 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Plus he's 8 years older. That's a lot of filled nappies over that period. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21615 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Plus Harris was a criminal prosecutor. Think Clinton was a corporate lawyer. Not really comparable. Nice for NJS to see the negatives again though. 👍 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly because the Dems continuously play by the rules but the MAGA GOP do not and they even create new ones to suit. Biden has a free hand now, he should at least balance the Supreme Court, but he won't for some incomprehensible (to me) reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the argument goes Biden could / should do the same 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44853 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 If Harris beats Trump this time around, I don't really know what becomes of the Republican Party. Trump can't run again cos he'll be either 82 or dead by the time the next one comes around, and the party isn't a political party anymore, it's a personality death cult set up entirely to worship one man. I mean I couldn't give a fuck what happens to them, I just hope she wins so we can find out. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the perfect illustration of why the judiciary should be separate from political interest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the bloke in the clip above is trying to be measured and reasonable in his responses, Trump won't. He'll ramble and bluster, interrupt, shout down, non-sequitur and outright lie if he's ever made to answer questions the likes of which that senator was. You saw it with Hillary, she tried to be calm and stateman-like. Trump was just a demagogue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but it's not just Trump - ever since Reagan embraced the evangelical vote it's been pretty clear their long term plan has been to control the supreme Court and ban abortion and other rights but the dems rule following has been naive. At the very least they should have tried to get Ginsberg to retire before she died. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30598 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 When you talk about republicans playing dirty don't forget they refused to confirm Obama's last nominee to the Supreme Court, Merrick Garland, because they said it wasn't appropriate in an election year and then did a full 180 in appointing Ginsberg's replacement just months before the 2020 election. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21615 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 I expect a lot more of this shit to come out of Trump's mouth. Genuinely do not know why any woman would vote for him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
