Prospective President Kamala Harris

[Subduction Zone]

Oh I believe in climate change. Still waiting for inflation to come down. It's insane, it really is.

I do not think that you understand inflation. Inflation has come down. But prices do not come down when inflation comes down. They no longer rise as fast as they were in the past. The current rate is 3.3% which is fairly low on a historical basis.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Yes, I'd deny many women the right to kill their babies.

As for your lung cancer thing, sorry but that was a bad example.

Women killing their babies? When has that ever happened?

It shows that one knows that one's own arguments fail if they have to misrepresent what they oppose.

Here's how the last several presidents have been ranked according to a variety of surveys by historians. From Historical rankings of presidents of the United States - Wikipedia (go to the link to see what surveys and years these numbers represent). These results are all prior to Biden's recent move, which ought to elevate him into the top ten. The most recent survey (2024) ranks Trump 45th out of 46:

Is it fair to assume that your two favorite presidents from that list are Bush and Trump?

I am thinking that this could put "Trump 47" into a different context.

Not yet, but soon when historians make their list of the best to worst Presidents, Trump will really be 47.

And you're far from alone. Almost half of America shares your values.

"M.A.G.A." was never not ironic as a motto, but it is impressive how directly the movement sabotages its own stated goal.

 

[LuisDantas]

Well, then let's do it! With no government intervention.

Because?

So this childless "cat lady" meme seems to resonate with some of our conservative friends. Kamala Harris could be a worse person. For example, she could have had five children and 10 grandchildren, but three divorces in which she cheated on her husband and married the guy she cheated with each time until the fourth marriage, in which she cheated on her fourth husband by sleeping with a porn star gigolo while pregnant.

I don't know where that thought occurred to me, but I just wanted to say that Harris isn't perfect, but she could be worse. Imagine if Republicans had that kind of background to pin on her. She would never win the presidency, let alone any other election she chose to run in ever.

Can you point me to the laws allowing women to kill their babies? Remember, I'm asking for anyone allowing women to kill actual babies, not fetuses.

First and foremost she needs to never, ever, come anywhere near acting like MTG, and Boebert acted today in their questioning of SS Director, K. Cheatle. It was disgraceful and a perfect example as to why so many still doubt the abilities of women in leadership roles. Cheadle calmly maintained dignity, however.

Are you including Jim Jordan and his "Gish gallop"? That kind of behavior is not confined to any particular gender.

 

[Alien826]

But she's likely to face a Red Congress like Obama during his first two years.

Obama had Democratic majorities in both houses for the first two years. They even had a super majority in the Senate, if you include two Independents that caucused with them.

Absolutely -- I just didn't see Jordan with all his antics in that piece of political TV.

Interesting how a fetus suddenly becomes a baby when it changes locations.

 

[Kathryn]

Because?

Because the less big government involvement, the better, for starters.

I don't believe it's a misrepresentation. It's a difference in terminology.

Inflation is still above what is acceptable. Meanwhile, prices keep going up.

 

[Kathryn]

Okay, but just so you are aware, that displays a disinterest in freedom.

Actually, no it isn't. You would deny women the right to abort an unwanted fetus (it's not a "baby" which is defined as "a very young child, especially one newly or recently born"), but for the most part (except in rape) the condition of pregnancy is brought on by one's own action. And so is cancer from smoking. Why should your tax dollars pay for one, and not the other?

You left out incest and very young mothers.

Anyway, right below your definition is another one that states specifically "an unborn child." The Free Dictionary I believe. So I guess the jury's out on that one. And I do believe that the lung cancer example is a poor one and I already stated my reasons for that. Surprise, I guess we disagree!

Fetuses were never babies. That is even shown by how woman react to them. Though losing a fetus is a very sad event it is nowhere near as heart wrenching as losing a child. With a lot of women there is an intent to have a baby, that is where your error comes from. And remember, a society that has the power to say that you cannot have an abortion also has the power to say that you have to have an abortion. I do not like giving that much power to the government.

See post above. Anyway, I've had a miscarriage and a late term death. Oh well.

My late husband's ex wife had so many abortions prior to meeting and marrying him, that she could only have one child down the road a bit (while she was still in her twenties). She definitely had them for the sake of convenience. Like I said, oh well.

Harris worked her way up the ladder of California politics by sleeping her way to the top. She was cute and ambitious gal and knew how to play the game. The expected DNC tactic is to cry misogyny and racism so Trump is inhibited from pointing out Harris's past and her approach to climbing the ladder. Her affair with the once powerful Willie Brown, helped to set her up. That may turn off women. Feminists were always turned off by pretty gals who could climb the ladders with their female charms.


Based on how the DNC Cabal threw out Biden, it appears Nancy Pelosi is the head of the Swamp snake. Although retired from office, her power comes from her funding raising prowess and all her powerful donor contacts in California, Washington and beyond. My guess is Kamala was chosen by Pelosi, for her donors, even as VP to Biden. Both women are from the Socialist Republic of California. Pelosi has the power to control Harris, since she knows what moves her gears. However, Harris may not play out well for the majority of the voters, once her past is made known, without any need for exaggeration.

For example, her radical views, which are now not very popular on mainstream America are all on the record, such as a tendency to free hardened criminals who did serious crimes. I saw an interview where she was cheer leading the destructive rampage of BLM. That may have played well in California, but may not in swing states. The tactic now is to deny and blame the dark truth of Harris on racist and sexist lies; deny and lie. I am curious what nickname Trump decides to use for Harris.

Many claims.
Could you support them?
Eg, cheer leading BLM rampage?

Also, if the claim of her promiscuity is material,
shouldn't Tump be evaluated by the same standard?

I mean, I guess. I don't find it particularly interesting, but yes, there is a significant difference between when it's inside the mother and when it's outside.

I take this to mean that there are no laws allowing women to kill babies, and you were inaccurately referring to abortion being legal. Is that right, or are you still going to provide those examples of places where women can legally kill babies?

 

[Magic Man]

Because the less big government involvement, the better, for starters.

Except when big government is what you want, like in the case of abortion.
