Harris, Trump sharpen attacks ahead of debate

Trump’s eyes have that particular shine which often distinguishes geniuses, alcoholics, and hysterics.

"You don't know what to expect. She's changed all of her policies over the years," he told NBC News in a phone interview.

Says the guy who changes his policy on abortion daily.

Will you vote for 6 week ban in Florida or not, Donald?

Trump’s eyes have that particular shine which often distinguishes geniuses, alcoholics, and hysterics.

Isn’t that how the prominent American columnist Dorothy Thompson described Adolf Hitler after interviewing him in 1931?

"President Trump respects women and doesn't feel the need to be patronizing or to speak to women in any other way than he would speak to a man,"

lol

Good one, Tulsi.

"Donald Trump has a real problem with the truth,"

Ain’t that the truth:

“Can you imagine you’re a parent and your son leaves the house and you say, ‘Jimmy, I love you so much, go have a good day in school,’ and your son comes back with a brutal operation? Can you even imagine this? What the hell is wrong with our country?”

—DJT

"Donald Trump has a real problem with the truth,"

Let him talk about the supposed hundreds of thousands of lunatics seeking asylum, lol

Projecting again.

I pray only that the unwashed masses are left confused so they can get back to listening to prepared messaging.

will he be allowed to bring a kitten to protect it from harris eating it?

will he say the stock market will crash like never before and “blood will be spilled” if he doesn’t win?

will he say that he respects women so much that he sexually attacks them?

will he acknowledge the poll showing 25% of republicans want him to seize power even if he loses?

how will this bizarre, whacky time of trumpism be written in history books?

The debate offers Harris, a former prosecutor, a chance to make her case against Trump, whose felony convictions, outspoken backing for supporters convicted in the Jan 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and frequent falsehoods offer plenty of fertile ground.

It is going to be tempting for Harris to get distracted starts his Gish Gallop of alternate facts. Hit back at some of the major ones like election interference and comparative records in office.

Then she should lay out a couple of bold policy decisions to put the focus on the future.

It will be hard to counter all the disinfo coming out of the Trump/Vance campaign, like with immigrants eating cats.

Trump has not seen the full of the Democrats,we have a lots of political surprises up our sleeves,this is the beginning of the end of MAGA reign of terror

We will see Kamala as a good prosecutor mopping the floor with Trump..

The largest circus in the world will not disappoint us tonight, lots of fun await us!!..

Prepare the sofa, the snacks and loosen your belt, you will laugh a lot.. LOL

I'll watch the debates, listen to both sides, weigh what was said, and THEN have an opinion about it. Not how bad Trump is or Harris is, but what the debate says. I might not change my opinion on the candidate, but the ideas expressed, from both sides, might be different from what I expect.

But I won't come back and "argue" 30 times a day on 10 different topics and practice my acerbic  wit time and time and time again. I'm a one comment guy.

It is going to be tempting for Harris to get distracted starts his Gish Gallop of alternate facts. Hit back at some of the major ones like election interference and comparative records in office.

I think she needs to do this - call him a liar to his face and attack his credibility.

Trump relies on the Gish Gallop and hoping that people will be too respectful to call him out, or even know where to start.

She'd do well to remind viewers that he's a fraudster, a felon and a rapist. Amd he cheats at golf.

Tokyo,you live with the LDP revolving circus, waiting for the next ring master

harris campaign running ads now on fox news in philadelphia, trumps favorite to remote setting, with former white house personnel during trump’s failed first presidency saying he’s unfit for office again.

to really trigger him, i wonder if harris will invite e jean carroll and stormy daniels to sit in the front row behind the moderators?

will he be allowed to bring a kitten to protect it from harris eating it?

Will Harris finally talk about her record? Wait…

will he say the stock market will crash like never before and “blood will be spilled” if he doesn’t win?

Will Kamala say that there is no such thing as an illegal Immigrant?

will he say that he respects women so much that he sexually attacks them?

Will Kamala say it’s ok for a minor of any age to go through a sex change with or without their parents approval

will he acknowledge the poll showing 25% of republicans want him to seize power even if he loses?

Will Kamala admit or still feels that law enforcement and ICE should be disbanded

how will this bizarre, whacky time of trumpism be written in history books?

Will the lack of 52 days without giving a single interview and the msm giving her a free slate go down in history as the most dishonest unethical acts in history.

and putting up fake bus stop signs that the Eagles support Harris.

In 45’s defence he’s old and everything he says is recorded and examined. He’s bound to say something stupid. Happened to Biden, happens to everybody. If he just admitted that he’d be better off.

But no. Instead he doubles down on idiocy and talks about ‘the weave’ and how his English professor friends have never seen anything so brilliant.

He deserves every ounce of ridicule. Pounce on every dumb thing he says.

Republican Donald Trump and Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris prepared to meet for the first time on Tuesday night in their only scheduled debate of the U.S. presidential campaign, a key moment in a close-fought contest.

The nationally televised debate beginning at 9 p.m. ET takes place just eight weeks before the Nov 5 election, and days before early voting will start in some states.

—

(I'm on my way to work here in Tokyo, so I won't be able to watch the entire debate, but here's a simple prediction:) If Trump maintains his composure / remains disciplined and focused on his policies (which is what people want to hear), he will completely destroy Kamala (as I said a few days ago, it is not difficult to expose Kamala's dishonesty and incompetence).

In 45’s defence he’s old and everything he says is recorded and examined. He’s bound to say something stupid. Happened to Biden, happens to everybody. If he just admitted that he’d be better off. 

63% of Americans say that they are financially not better off since they took power, how will Kamala better our worsening our economy, will she talk about tax hikes she deeply supports? Does she think robbing Paul to give to Peter will be the best way to uplift the economy.

But no. Instead he doubles down on idiocy and talks about ‘the weave’ and how his English professor friends have never seen anything so brilliant. 

Will Kamala talk about why wants to force Americans to ride EVs and hates fracking and why she doesn’t want Americans to have a choice?

He deserves every ounce of ridicule. Pounce on every dumb thing he says.

And this is why the Dems always lose, they focus more on personal attacks and not the policies or the issues, Trump’s got this. Once again, the left proves this point without fail.

I'm glad to see that NHK will be carrying the debate, so I won't have to deal with VPN and Android TV apps. But, I feel sorry for whomever is operating the translated subtitles, trying to keep up with Trump's self-described "weave" speaking style. They should get combat pay.

I suppose there's also a good chance it'll be machine translation. If so, the resulting subtitles will be hilarious. I'm gonna hafta check with my wife. I can't imagine they'll make any sense, as they start out not making sense.

This is simple.

A spoiled man-child who can't stop lying that wants to win to use the power to go after his personal enemies, not actually do good things for the country and will try to stay in power until death, stacking the laws against every other political party while he is in office.

Or

an adult woman with good sense who happens have have 60% bad policies, but is actually trying to be a patriot and make the best decisions she can.

All I expect from Trump during the debate is insulting, spewing hate, b.s.-ting, deranged, weird, creepy remarks and comments! He should've never been given a platform like this debate, because he wasn't, he isn't and he'll never be a president for all Americans. And before he calls POTUS to be Kamala Harris a Marxist, communist and even a fascist he should remember who visited that NK dictator and called him a very good friend, praising Putain a genius, and so on. I hope Kamala Harris will humiliate him and in the end wipe the floor with his ...... you know what!

A spoiled man-child who can't stop lying

The media 24/7

that wants to win to use the power to go after his personal enemies,

You mean the way the Dems did to this man since 2016?

not actually do good things for the country

4 years of 289 accomplishments say differently not to mention he wouldn’t be beating Harris in the EC if the lies from the left were true.

and will try to stay in power until death,

Not according to the constitution

stacking the laws against every other political party while he is in office.

Since the Dems did it to him, you never know. Karma….

Or 

an adult woman with good sense who happens have have 60% bad policies,

There you go, that’s the ultimate disqualification factor right there.

We got to see the old guy flub it in the prior debate, now we'll see the other old guy REALLY flub it at this one...

Good thing Nikki Haley has been keeping such a high profile, or maybe that was the Repub game-plan after Trump FLIPPED on life begins at conception...

(I'm on my way to work here in Tokyo, so I won't be able to watch the entire debate, but here's a simple prediction:) If Trump maintains his composure / remains disciplined and focused on his policies (which is what people want to hear), he will completely destroy Kamala (as I said a few days ago, it is not difficult to expose Kamala's dishonesty and incompetence).

Arguments from false premises usually end in error and disappointment.

I'll bet you are very, very wrong and the debate results vary from Kamala on a prosecutorial warpath leading to a total Trump demolition to a fine mess of Trump alt-facts with Kamala struggling to get her point across that you can call a wash.

If Harris folds embarrassingly like Biden in the previous debate, I will acknowledge my error, though I doubt MAGA will do the same if Trump has a bad performance.

Seems this debate will decide who the next POTUS. The polls seem to be tightening with Harris lead getting smaller according to todays news. Pass the popcorn, let the show begin. May the best man / woman win.

"Top pollster Nate Silver believes Kamala Harris squandered a huge opportunity to pick up more votes by not picking Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro as her running mate. Silver wrote that Harris could have seen a boost from the center and sparked more support in his battleground state, which could decide the outcome of the election. No Democrat has taken the White House without winning Pennsylvania since 1948. Silver was writing in response to a New York Times/Siena Poll showing Trump ahead of the vice president by one point. In another sign that Harris' 'honeymoon' since the Democratic National Convention is coming to an end, DailyMail.com's election model also showed Trump surging ahead nationwide. "

4 years of 289 accomplishments say differently not to mention he wouldn’t be beating Harris in the EC if the lies from the left were true.

289? It used to be 280 according to this source.

Now, you’re talking about days golfing while president, that would be 307.

63% of Americans say that they are financially not better off since they took power, how will Kamala better our worsening our economy, will she talk about tax hikes she deeply supports? Does she think robbing Paul to give to Peter will be the best way to uplift the economy.

She’s 5ft 4 inches

Will Kamala talk about why wants to force Americans to ride EVs and hates fracking and why she doesn’t want Americans to have a choice?

Will 45 admit or deny that he is secretly planning to ban vegetables?

And this is why the Dems always lose, they focus more on personal attacks and not the policies or the issues, Trump’s got this. Once again, the left proves this point without fail.

Yeah, but Republicans are the last people to say something or other. That’s why so many people are leaving one place to move to another place for various assorted reasons.

Hey! I’m the weave master

Arguments from false premises usually end in error and disappointment.

True.

I'll bet you are very, very wrong and the debate results vary from Kamala on a prosecutorial warpath leading to a total Trump demolition to a fine mess of Trump alt-facts with Kamala struggling to get her point across that you can call a wash.

The problem for Harris is, she has no record, that is her biggest vulnerability.

If Harris folds embarrassingly like Biden in the previous debate, I will acknowledge my error, though I doubt MAGA will do the same if Trump has a bad performance.

We shall see, but the bar is on Harris because we don’t know what she stands for or what lack of policies she supports or not…

She’s 5ft 4 inches 

Tiny

Will 45 admit or deny that he is secretly planning to ban vegetables?

More debunked crap…yawn…

Yeah, but Republicans are the last people to say something or other. That’s why so many people are leaving one place to move to another place for various assorted reasons.

To Florida and Texas, paradise

Hoping to hear some positive policy comments from both sides.

This is the real test for me.

What detailed proposals can you enunciate that will progress the country?

Whining gets an immediate markdown as a time waster.

As do derogatory terms. Meaningless and contribute nothing.

Both have the chance to showcase their nous with no fawning fans to cheer them on.

Whoever can act accordingly will win in my eyes.

To Florida and Texas, paradise

Nah, the red states are the welfare queens.

An Associated Press Fact Check finds it’s actually the other way around. High-tax, traditionally Democratic states (blue), subsidize low-tax, traditionally Republican states (red) — in a big way.

That is something Harris can point out when Trump starts in about the state of California.

I just made it up. But you thought it had been debunked. Weird.

I see

And then Trump can pivot and say, but those welfare queens are historically not Republican voters. Kind of like Orange County is a small paradise in deep blue California. Yeah, please bring that one up, Kamala.

I hope he talks about San Francisco. Fifteen years ago, it was the best city in the country, one of the best cities in the world.

Tonight debate, Kalama Harris has to answer clearly some searching questions, yet to be fully explored because of a campaign strategy to duck and dive, to run and hide. refuse press conferences, interviews.

Questions on policy, the lack of detail, on violent crime , the ever growing unfunded spending commitments, the Biden/Harris economic fiscal/monetary record, the huge crazy spending associated with the inflation Reduction Act/Green New Deal.

The costs estimates have rocketed from a initial $369 billion to staggering $1.2 trillion.

Leaving US families demonstrably worse off,

Bidenomics” own numbers, *on inflation, on jobs, falling household incomes prove it.

The moderators tonight must challenge Harris. Trump must beleaguer provoke reaction, at the same time refrain from personal insults.

Harris will filibuster, with buffets of waffle word salad gibberish.

Trump must display statesmanship, patience, mustn't be side-tracked, distracted. triggered by Harris baseless accusations of racial prejudice, discrimination.

Lets be clear Harris must elaborate on Walz toxic record on ‘gender identity’ and children

Tim Walz owes Democrats some answers on ‘gender identity’ and children

LIVE: ABC News Presidential Debate: Harris and Trump meet in Philadelphia

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRh6598RmHM

Harris should use all the sympathy of her sex to eviscerate the proven predator and nail his orange nastiness to the wall. She must point out all his lies past and present highlight his ignorance and incompetence and humiliate him with mockery for his wild word salads. Her superior intellect and way with words should be able to see him off for the pathetic old yesterday man he is, like Biden appeared to the world in the last debate.

I hope he talks about San Francisco. Fifteen years ago, it was the best city in the country, one of the best cities in the world.

I hope she talks about 2Pac who she was listening to in the mid-80s while smoking weed. Then she will announce her favorite rapper alive 2Pac is supporting her campaign.

Never heard of this. Any sources?

I hope the moderators ask Trump what his child care policy is. And then just wait for the word salad.

I hope he talks about San Francisco. Fifteen years ago, it was the best city in the country, one of the best cities in the world.

Now one of the worst, but yes, he absolutely should bring it up.

I hope he talks about San Francisco. Fifteen years ago, it was the best city in the country, one of the best cities in the world.

Now one of the worst, but yes, he absolutely should bring it up.

15 years ago Harris was San Francisco DA and Newsom was San Francisco mayor.

You know “Fifteen years ago, it was the best city in the country, one of the best cities in the world.” Is a 45 quote, right?

He said it twice last month at 2 different events.

Harris must elaborate on Walz toxic record on ‘gender identity’ and children

You mean his mandating tampons in all school restrooms and providing same-day on-campus sex change operations free of charge and without parental consent? You mean that non-existent record?

That’s for JD to bring up at his own debate. I’m sure it will solidify his standing among the feeble-minded Newsmax crowd.

It’s going to be interesting, no doubt. I’m sure we’re all in agreement on that.

Tonight debate, Kalama Harris has to answer clearly some searching questions, yet to be fully explored because of a campaign strategy to duck and dive, to run and hide.

More like this;

1) "Your evangelical supporters believe in the sanctity of life and that life begins at conception - no exceptions and no compromise. Do you believe life begins at conception and is any abortion after conception “murdering children”?

2) "A majority of your supporters believe the COVID vaccine is poisonous and can kill you. Yet you went on Fox News and stated "it's safe and it works, and frankly all of my supporters should take it”. Do you still believe the vaccine is a medical miracle and safe, and what do you say to your supporters who think you are trying to poison them?"

3) "You are an adherent of the Great Replacement Theory (GRT) that holds brown immigrants are replacing white culture and Christian religion. But JD Vance’s wife is the daughter of brown immigrants and she is Hindu and doesn't believe in Jesus or a Christian God - aren’t her, her husband, and their children part of the GRT?

4) "It’s been reported that Egypt President Al-Sisi gave your campaign in 2016 $10 million, and that it was transferred via a Egyptian intelligence operator in small bills in duffel bags. After you became President, you approved a $1 billion defense package for Egypt that had been on hold. Did your campaign receive this money and if so, why didn’t you report it as it is illegal to receive donations from overseas governments? Was it an illegal bribe and quid-pro-quo for the defense aid package being released?"

5) "You've stated you "know nothing about Project 2025", and deny ever meeting to talking to its authors - yet Russell Vought, the co-author of the project was caught on tape admitting you and he "talked frequently" and that your denials of Project 2025 were just "political". Have you been in contact with Project 2025's authors and was your denial of it untrue"?

6) In the past you said of RFK Jr; "He’s a big fan of the Green New Scam, and other economy killing disasters. Kennedy is a Radical Left Democrat, and always will be!!!  Expect him, and her, to be indicted any day now, probably for Environmental Fraud! "Don't waste any Republican or Conservative votes on Junior.' He's one of the most Liberal Lunatics ever to run for office." You've more recently said; "I like him a lot, I respect him a lot." He indicated that Kennedy would likely have a role in a Trump administration, too. At a campaign event in Arizona on Thursday, Trump called Kennedy "very smart" and even said it would be a "great honor" to earn an endorsement from Kennedy. Which view is correct?

7) One of your lawyers has testified that they told you violating a lawful subpoena to return classified documents was illegal, yet you did it anyway - why did you knowingly violate the law and did you have your aides re-hide the classified and then instruct them to destroy video tape evidence showing that?

plasticmonkey, I must guard my diction, and tone, my comments will removed if deemed to impinge on fellow commentators or JT moderation policy.

My humble opinions are not public decrees, just points to consider in respect to stating sometime conflicting opposing views

Donald Trump: INFLATION, IMMIGRATION, POOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Donald Trump: THEY'RE EATING OUR DOGS!!!! POOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Trump got flustered on abortion. His answers were really, really bad.

So far, he's coming across as that rambling angry uncle at thanksgiving.

This might be Trump's Biden moment. Think the 'Pubs can swap him out before November?

Mr Trump, just exactly how do you perform an abortion after a child is born? Do you really believe that immigrants are eating pets? You are crazy on top of being stupid and utterly not fit for office. The part of America that has a 3 digit IQ are sick and tired of the Trump circus show.

Oh snap, she called out his weak rallies! He's not going to like that!

She got him. He's triggered! The ramble goes on!

"In Springfield, they're eating the dogs!!!" he says.

This is the guy they want for president? This old man?!

Harris goads Trump with rally size, then Trump goes to the immigrants eating cats.

She is doing a good job of making him look unhinged and like a ranting conspiracy theorist on his talking points.

Laying the facts as usual. Harris is funny; she actually thinks crime is down. ROFL!

Hilarious listening to Harris dodge questions on migrant crime.

crime is down.

Now, she wants to address the housing shortage??? Apparently, she hasn't been to California recently.

native born americans have the highest crime rate.

undocumented immigrant crime rate is far below that.

then legal immigrants bring up the rear with the lowest crime rate.

crime is down.

Not according to the FBI stats

Hardly

https://kansasreflector.com/2023/10/29/politicians-love-to-cite-crime-data-its-often-wrong/

Harris has no consistency or honesty in any way whatsoever, and sounds nervous and incompetent. She has no value whatsoever to add to the US.

then legal immigrants bring up the rear with the lowest crime rate.

Illegal immigrants have the highest crime rate, at 100% by virtue of entering the country illegally in the first place. This is on Harris, who has completely neglected her duty as border czar.
