And She is supposed to bring everyone together?

I'd be really interested to hear more about this criticism when one of her former high level aides appears at the RNC to talk about her being a clear and present danger to democracy. But as it stands, yeah. She really is bringing Republicans and Democrats together.

Hi airdvr,

Let me see if I have this correct:  You think a random YouTube is going to derail her quest for the Presidency?

Why don't you just say what you really mean:  You are a Trump supporter without the guts to say it out loud.

Now, how about those YouTubes on Trump . . .

To point out that Harris is an unmitigated disaster is not to say that Trump is any better.

I am convinced that having Harris in the oval office might provide the Republicans the opportunity to detox from Trump, since there is no way he can run in 2028.  Will they make good use of the opportunity?  I suspect not.

My concern is that the damage that Harris will do is likely unrecoverable.  We are already past the tipping point economically, and the question is not so much if as when and how bad.  With Harris at the helm, the answer is sooner than later, and very, very bad.

I wish I was wrong.

It's been fun while it lasted.

And yet they'll tell you incessantly that we survived 4 years of Trump and could survive another 4, no problemo. But Harris, no way will we survive as a nation. It's over and that's it. Forced abortions, free money for not working, 2 hours a day of mandatory giggling classes, and all children will be required to share their lunches at school. We're just plain screwed

The abortions AFTER birth! 

It's almost unbelievable the world of disaster in the heads of republicans lately.

Hi winsor,

Re:  Trump, since there is no way he can run in 2028

I cannot understand why you say that.  He would be eligible.

The only thing limiting anyone is they must be 35 or older & can only serve a total of 10 yrs.

PS)  They also have to have been born in this country; with a couple of very unique exceptions:  John McCain was born in the Canal Zone in Panama.

Barry Goldwater was born in Arizona before it was a state.

It was still part of the US. Along with Puerto,  Guam, the US Virgin Islands and a few other places.

Remember when Trumpty Dumpty said that he had 'spoken with the president of the Virgin Islands'?

 

Yeah, he's THAT stupid.

I'm pretty sure that you have to be born a citizen. Where you are born doesn't matter.

They don't. A person born outside the country to one US citizen parent has birthright citizenship. In other words, they are a natural born citizen. 

Just one part of the racist idiocy that was the birther conspiracy.

How about casting the tie breaker vote(s) on two trillion dollars of deficit spending, resulting in a 20% increase in prices in just three years. That is the equivalent of a massive regressive tax that hurts all Americans especially the poor. A money party is fun while it lasts but the hangover is atrocious and long lasting.

You won't find me defending Trump and I'm not so stupid to think a video would change anyone's mind.  I also noted that not many addressed the claims in the vid.  I'm honestly pissed that these are my 2 choices.

Like this”

“That is: The US did a lot more stimulus than these other countries, and now it’s seeing a lot more core inflation. And the stimulus that most stands out is Biden’s $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan — because it was enacted after more than $3 trillion had already been spent to stimulate the economy under Trump, with one big chunk of that being approved just three months prior.

“We put gasoline on the fire. That’s basically what the ARP did. It was almost written as if we didn’t just pass a trillion-dollar stimulus in December,” said Goldwein.”

A lot more?

 

Canada spent 18.9% of GDP on stimulus spending

USA spent 19.6% of GDP on stimulus spending

Now, I know you struggle with percentages, but that difference isn't normally qualified as "a lot more."

So who’s Goldwein, and where did he say this?

Than what countries? And why are we blaming the dems for Trump’s spending?
