What do you think happened here? Do you know why it happened? Well here is an ABC News (I believe
@Eric prefers network news links) story on it.
I tried to get a link directly from ABC, but it would only play for a few seconds and then freeze. But this one actually works better because you can see what Kamala HQ posted vs what the news report states.
Edit: per
@Eric's response, here is a new link. Important part at around the 2:00 mark.
So before you saw this, did you believe what you were seeing was:
1) 100% the truth
2) Some truth with some deception
3) 100% false.
Because let me tell you, I don't believe 90% of what the media shows. And that includes FoxNews. Gallup's recent polling on trust in media shows that only 31%
Americans' confidence in the media is at its lowest point, as Democrats' confidence is near the record low and Republicans' is almost nonexistent.

The interesting thing is that Independents are only at 27%. Kind of expect the far right to not trust them, but they have lost Independents as well. And with Democrats at 54%, they are close to going negative with them (lost 16% since 2022). So you may be in the 31% that believes what you are being fed, but the rest of the country doesn't. And this is an example why, but it isn't because Kamala HQ posted it. That is what they are kind of supposed to do, but that spread across the news networks like wildfire. Thankfully ABC News was honest enough to report the actual truth.
So as to the other things, I am not casting a judgement on you for posting them, I simply don't trust your sources. This could be why no one seems to care what Trump has reportedly done: they don't believe it. We have been misled by the media too many times.
I watched the actual event before I read the news articles.
Yes, what I saw was the truth. I know I shouldn’t believe my lying eyes and ears and only the pro-Trump coalition, but I saw a gassed lying wind bag swaying and dancing poorly, not answering many questions and still managing to make sure he mentioned “nobody is leaving!” while talking about losing weight as an obese man was carted off on a stretcher.
That said, I’ll grant you a pass. Let’s pretend that event was handled well and Trump was concerned for others (more proof you haven’t paid any attention to the guy you’re voting for. He was fine to let his VP be hanged but suddenly is on high alert for people he doesn’t know).
So I’m glad you gave your opinion on that. Seriously, I am. But you started off with the most minor of details and ignored the most serious points.
I don’t need the press - or Trump’s republican allies - to explain to me what he meant, or what was actually going through his head. He said he wants to use the military on citizens and other members of congress. He and Vance have said they don’t care about the status of immigrants - legal or illegal.
And again, I hate to be repetitive, but you’re working backwards. I have no problem with you digging into Harris’ quotes or criticizing her statements. What I do fail to understand, and what is not clear in your posts, is if you think Harris has a problem with communication, how can you not think Trump has a much more serious ailment?
Also, if you have a problem with the press, as many do. Fine. So why does that make you blind to someone who lies ferociously and makes things up out of thin air. Was January 2021 a “peaceful transfer of power” as Trump claimed today? He said it was peaceful, full of love, and of the crowd who went to the Capitol, many were treated unfairly. And before you find one or two people who had their sentence reduced or were acquitted, big deal. Most were clearly criminal, and I damn sure dont see Trump or republicans coming to anyone’s aid when some innocent guy has his brains blown out by some hothead cop. But the J6 crowd? Total victims.
I could keep going.
As for the press, I don’t trust “the press” either. After all, “the press” covers a lot of ground. That doesn’t mean I automatically distrust all news sources either. In the case of the African American polls, I don’t post them as “proof” of anything, but merely to show different sources to yours, and so how do we suss out who is correct? I would say we wait until the votes are counted, but I reckon your side won’t be as quick to accept the results unless they turn out how they want. And even if Trump wins, he will make up his own stats. “105% of the African American vote! Thank you!
” (right under a tweet about how Philly, Detroit, Atlanta and Milwaukee were all corrupt sh*t-holes! No racist intent there!)
Anyways, I’ll end the ranting. I do appreciate your response, but you pick a soft landing topic and avoid the real meat of the issue.
Nothing you mentioned helps me understand how you vote for a demented, dumbass freak.
