That Reform party political broadcast was never used

He's in very good health.

Never forget that when Kamala Harris was 29-years-old, she started an AFFAIR with 60-year-old Willie Brown, he was a married California house speaker, Mayor of San Francisco and one of the most powerful in California

He bought Kamala expensive gifts like a BMW and appointed her to two influential positions. He named Kamala to the California Medical Assistance Commission, a job that paid $72,000 a year and also appointed her to the state's Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board, a lucrative position that put another $97,088 a year in her pockets. Brown later faced an FBI corruption investigation for handing out lucrative city contracts and appointments to friends and political allies.

Even after he dumped Kamala in 1995, he still continued to use his influence to promote her career, "I certainly helped with her first race for district attorney in San Francisco." - Brown

Harris was elected California's attorney general in 2010 with massive help from Willie and when she ran for United States Senate in 2016, Brown called on her likely opponent, Antonio Villaraigosa, to stay out of the race

"Successful women have slept their way to the top"

LT busting out some old-school 90's misogyny! You can't beat the classics I guess.

In as much as this may be true, the point I made was that we dont know her. I certainly didn't know this about her. This is why she doesn't stand much chance against Trump who we know all too well. Poor choice and a testament to the state of democratic politics in America - They cant even beat a convicted felon, twice impeached president who to this day still hasnt conceded defeat in 2020. ITs quite poor TBH

I think you're missing the tides of the sociology on this one - the things you're describing are part of what a large proportion of his voter base actively likes about him, rather than a "can't even". They're part of his appeal to people who have spent their lives feeling underfoot and pathetic. "Heh heh heh that'll show 'em!" by-proxy lapped up by petty, frustrated middle-aged school children.

he really isn't

Can you explain how he got into power the 1st time round please..you know, before all that happened.

i always wondered why LT was such a big fan of Wee Nicky

I think everyone sees that Trump appeals to a certain type of voter. However, there are not enough of these middle aged children to get him into office. I contend that a better candidate in 2016 would have beaten Trump. I'm embarrassed for the dems that they cant find a better candidate than the anonymous VP with a dodgy record as a prosecutor who's only policy when running for office herself was that she was a black woman and thus black people should vote for her. I remember the first debate where Tulsi Gabbard took her head off. VP Harris surrounded herself with black women in every press shot. It so obvious that I was a little embarrassed for her.

As you might have gathered, I'm no fan of VP Harris and I dont give her much chance come november

I didn't say those things are specifically what they like about him - I mean that the aspects of his general character described by those things are what they like about him (anti-establishment, "a rebel", "sticking it to the man"). Impeachments, charges, bucking the established conventions /etiquette and refusing to concede, all plays into that image of him that they like. It adds to his cult of personality, so opponents focussing on it is not going to do anything at all. Heck... the last of those (refusal to concede) he clearly did as a stunt because he knew his voters would like it. :shrug:.

You'd be better off asking Alf how - if it's true that the Dems are controlling everything and can manipulate the results to their whims, as they claim they did in 2020 - Trump managed to win in 2016... and why they believe he'll win in 2024.

"They have full control and can manipulate the elections... but... uhmmm... only this one time in 2020!"

Still entertaining to watch. The good bit starts at about 4 minutes in.

Gabbards claims are not all true but did any of you know about this stuff with Harris. Lets see how she reacts when confronted about it,

this is why the likes of obama and pelosi have not endorsed harris yet. They are, sensibly, waiting to see how it all pans out and they will endorse the chosen nominee.

I still maintain putting 2 swing state governors on the ticket is the best strategy to win. People then just need to pile in behind them and beat trump

Yes. But these "concerns" can dissipate rather rapidly and conveniently based on needs by the party. I take Democrat's stance on race and criminal justice about as seriously as any Republican insistence they care about the national deficit.

Gabbard was not a popular pick within her own party because she was rather too inconvenient and didn't know how to stay in her place.

Do you recall when Hillary called Republicans ‘Basket of Deplorables’?

DO you recall how well that worked?

Stop insulting people SB

:facepalm:

Agree and Gabbard is now almost unelectable. It show how slim the field was in 2020 and that Biden was the obvious choice. God Help America.

Harris has raised 66m in less than 24 hours

Probably from Clinton, Obama supporters and Middle of the road republicans. I'm betting not too many progressives will have donated. :laugh:

Does she actually? I'm not sure I've even heard her voice tbh. But I thought she was fairly serious?

Shouldn't need much, there's only a few months left :laugh:

Harris enjoys a joke and a bit of humour which is something maga can't cope with :laugh:

she can tap into Bidens cash too, which is over 200m :smug:

:joker:

absolute rubbish

she is the exact opposite

a box-ticking woke DEI "progressive" clown show

Believe me, I would love to see a woman President. But I just don't think she has enough support.

you really can't help yourself, all you come up with is stuff about her racial origins
