Vice President Kamala Harris vs Donald Trump 2024

Harris is out campaigning non stop from what I can see. And there's pretty much no question that she's more mentally competent than Trump. Meanwhile Trump is the guy who is actively backing out of debates...

Again, the 'MSM' is not a monolith, as you know, but the acronym is always a fun one to tick off if playing 'crap buzzword bingo'. Fox News, last time I checked, is rather pro-Trump and have a huge market/audience share. If that's not enough for American audiences, they have the smaller networks of Newsmaxx and One America News. In addition to that, you have syndicated conservative talk radio shows as well. Plenty of shilling done for Trump on all of that.

Harris is out campaigning.

Trump is the one being kept away, lest he say something even stupider in his speeches than going on about electric boats and Hannibal Lecter.

but she’s the “arrogant” one 🤔

I'm guessing post announcing her running mate, we're likely to see interviews. But my point stands, Trump is not even willing to engage in the debate process. In relation to changing her stance on certain policies, show me a politician who hasn't? She's walked back positions somewhat cause it has the potential to decide the election. She's made no secret that she's walked such back such positions, I'm sure it's likely to even show up during the debates.

I think a lot here overestimate the issues in the middle East and Israel. The average American couldn't give two **** about anything outside their own country. In fact the majority of Americans wouldn't be able to point out Israel on a map.

Where have her opponents challenging interviews been in the past few weeks? Fox News. And no “extended interaction with the press” lest he tell them to go inject bleach or something.

Opinion columnists can complain about her “strategy” but the poll inflection and the blowout fundraising speaks for itself.

Trump hasn’t held a conference since May (an “I am not a crook” conference following his felony conviction) and his NABJ appearance was a complete train wreck for his campaign. She’s doing great.

Thus how easy it is to manipulate the masses. I think the under education is a feature not a bug. Educated populations are a lot harder to manipulate and control. The GOP likes ignorant God fearers!

CNN and a few others starting to report it's Walz.

Thanks. Would have preferred Kelly or Shapiro. Still a better pick than Vance.

Walz it is

Walz deserves it for kickstarting the "weird" criticisms of Trump & Vance.

She was never gonna pick a Jew. Not these days. I know that's appalling, but it's the reality.

Kelly can do far more good for her in the Senate. And he's far more intelligent than she is. And she's no dummy.

Walz is the very definition of a working class American made good. He's a hard worker both in his personal and political life. He has 24 years service as a senior NCO in the US Army and National Guard. He has farmed, he has worked in factories and he has taught in high school for many years. And he's a nice safe solid protestant, being a Lutheran, not a namby pamby Episcopalian or a crazy ass Bible bashing Baptist.

If Harris is elite uppity Hollywood, LA, Beltway, trouser suit, then Walz to many people IS Mr Middle America.

Depends on the final result. If they win, he will be lauded for his devastatingly simple and effective description. If they lose, it will be in the record as unimaginative and tame.
