KAMALA HARRIS

Casdon

Remember when Teresa May was targeted for not having children - it’s the politics of the gutter, it really is. Can you imagine anybody even passing comment about a male politician not having children?

Hear hear

Came across a bizarre anti Harris (anti women?) statement by JD Vance

"Clip resurfaces of Vance criticizing Harris for being 'childless,' testing Trump's new running mate

Comments Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance made in 2021 questioning Vice President Kamala Harris’ leadership because she did not have biological children have resurfaced"

"During Vance's bid for the Senate from Ohio, he said in a Fox News interview that “

we are effectively run in this country via the Democrats," and referred to them as "a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too." He said that included Harris, U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat

I was thinking more along the lines of one of those little ribbons you wear on your lapel, not my colour either, but I could run to a ribbon.

😁I will have to give it a miss as chartreuse is def not my colour tho it does stand out in a crowd.

The USA is so different to the UK. I’ve just been updating myself on CNN, this is one of the headlines, related to the election. I can’t make sense of it.

It’s interesting thanks for the link.
We can all wear brat green this Summer just as we ( didn’t ) wear Barbie pink last Summer.😂
Saying Kamala is brat is complimenting her for being a strong and confident feminist not trying too hard and comfortable in her own skin.

Thanks Oreo, I get it a bit better now, it’s akin to a flag you wave to support your side. Must get a brat green something.

Seriously - stop the boats/build the wall- all these totally nonsensical three word slogans
.
She also didn’t only have one job

It’s not difficult to accept borders into relatively safe successful countries are being breached by people who see how much we have and want some. What is difficult is finding effective solutions that don’t breach people’s human rights

Right. 😂 She only had one job as VP and that was to over see the border. Well, we all know how that turned out.

Good luck to her… to ANYONE opposing Trump.

👍

marvellous isn't it.. she's really showing what she will be capable of achieving

Anyone watching Harris

Blimey

Trump has a problem!!

I sincerely hope the Secret Service team around Kamala Harris is experienced and on high alert for her first appearance in Wisconsin 🤞🤞

(Yes Project 25 was described/discussed in detail over on another thread, the "Biden to stand down" last few pages. All major institutions subject to political presidential appointees (no independent civil service, FBI, departments of Education and many more.)

Thank you, Siope. More here from the Guardian:

www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jul/22/kamala-harris-democratic-delegates

Thank you for the video in this clip. Harris strong, with humour, and the supportive voices, very heartening.

For a contrast, Harris 5 months ago at Munich conference, serious in full VP mode - dip in and out, its long) its about the US being involved in world affairs, (as opposed to an isolationist approach) particularly on sharing helping Ukraine.

As far as I can see, most successful politicians including of course Trump himself use humour/laughter/with some criticism implied as part of life at a rally.

Anyone else heard of Project 2025? I just heard it mentioned today on the radio. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025#:~:text=The%20Project%20asserts%20that%20the,willing%20to%20enable%20Trump's%20policies.

Project 25, (which Donald Trump says he knows nothing about!) is the core policy statement of the MAGA republicans.

It is utterly terrifying.

I mentioned project 25 on another thread I think. I really hope Kamala Harris is successful and I am pretty disgusted at the posters who tried to use her previous personal life against her. She's a strong, capable woman who was a determined lawyer. Apparently Trump has said he won't debate with her. That says to me that he knows she would eviscerate him

Yes BRAT GREEN … we call them highlighters.. meant to stand out as a compliment

I’ve just scan read the article Farmor15 thanks for posting it.
Should Trump get elected, I fear that there will be a lot of civil unrest in the USA.

I just heard of Project25 today too. We should be worried, but also hopeful that the American people realise things can be different and vote for the grown-up.

The 'asparagus medium' on Tv this morning predicts Michelle Obama 😀

that was on Radio 4 as well. But she did predict a woman getting in before Biden resigned!!!
