    1) She's managed to avoid being convicted of a felony.

    2) She's managed to avoid molesting people of the opposite sex.

    3) She's managed to avoid calling for an insurrection so she could seize power.


    She is the only candidate in this election that can (honestly) make those claims. Any questions?

    “She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now, she wants to be known as Black,”

    I have to say ever since the Biden debate disaster Kamala and team have brought their A game. They have handled and responded, or not responded perfectly.

    You know it isn’t hard to tell the truth, like you just did, unlike some of your buddies here. When Biden shit the bed with his debate performance I think most Democrats here said as much.

    The NOT racist point our inarticulate former president (Trump--the "not great communicator," as it were....) is attempting to invoke vis a vis his "black jobs" comment (2nd time he's made the reference):

    "The Impact of Illegal Immigration on the Wages and Employment Opportunities of Black Workers." The Commission found that illegal workers comprise as much as one-third of immigrants, and that illegal immigration creates a surplus of low-skilled, low-wage labor in the U.S. labor market. Experts on the panel testified that while illegal immigration to the U.S. depresses employment and wages for low-skilled American citizens, Black men are disproportionally affected.

    Supporting Illegal Immigration Means Opposing Black Workers
    And:

    Biden's Open Border Hurts Black Americans Most of All—and We Know It | Opinion
    Published May 11, 2023 at 10:14 AM EDTUpdated May 11, 2023 at 1:38 PM EDT

    But resistance to importing millions of new Americans whose first act on U.S. soil was to break the law and enter illegally is coming from Black Americans, who are sick of having our fight for equity in this country appropriated by people looking for a better economic outlook.

    Black Chicagoans of the South Shore neighborhood came out in droves to reject a recent proposal to convert a public high school building into a migrant facility. With chants of "build the wall" and calling the city council to task for "making decisions about us, when none of you live here," Black American South Side residents took a stance against more crime from unvetted migrants, siphoning financial resources away from Black citizens, and imposing unnecessary competition for jobs.

    Biden's Open Border Hurts Black Americans Most of All—and We Know It

    And:

    Black Americans are the most reliable Democratic voters, and yet the Democratic Party betrays their loyalty by neglecting the needs of Black voters, or worse, actively supporting policies that harm Black Americans. Illegal immigration is a prime example.

    Whatever those in power do to Black Americans, they will soon do to everyone else. This is why we must call out the Democrats for their push to provide amnesty for the nation's estimated—but almost certainly undercounted—11 million illegal immigrants and the trillions of dollars they support spending on those who enter the country illegally. Meanwhile, the majority of the homeless, the impoverished, the unemployed, and the evicted are Black Americans. This is an unforgivable betrayal.

    In 1924, House Democrats voted 158-37 to drastically slash immigration. A. Philip Randolph, one of the most prominent Black labor and civil rights leaders of the day, praised the restrictions, explaining that too much immigration "over-floods the labor market, resulting in lowering the standard of living."

    ...

    This second "Great Wave" of immigration to America has done great harm to Black Americans, much as the flood of immigration from Europe following the Civil War did. According to a study by economists from Harvard and the University of Chicago, the influx of new immigrants between 1980 and 2000 accounts for as much as 60 percent of the decline in wages, 25 percent of the decline in employment rates, and 10 percent of the increase in incarceration rates among less-educated Blacks.


    When It Comes to Immigration Reform, Don't Forget Black Voters
    Is Trump a crude toad? Sure. Is he painfully in articulate? Yeah. Is he racist? Nope.

    Once again, the racism is owned by the Dems, first through their racist policies from D(didn't) E(arn) I(t) and Affirmative Action, implicitly suggesting that the dark races lack the merit to compete with whites, to illegal immigration policies, where the dems take the black vote for granted, as they seek to create and court a new voting block--then seek to conceal their racism by projecting it across the aisle.

    Now admittedly, Trump could stand to improve his game in communicating the point (along with other points). The heart and soul of politics is in messaging, and DJT seems to have lost a step in that regard--ultimately though, da fax is da fax, and sorry to break it to y'all, but Kac's shan't be *unburdened by HER past*--she owns it, as heir apparent, head cheerleader, disciple, and protege of
    Doh! Biden, and *the Doh! Doctrine* which she supported, championed and furthered, loud and proud, throughout the Doh! presidency.

    Truth. After the "grab her by the [genitals]" comment became public, I thought no way could the U.S. electorate opt for this shameful person. Never underestimate the U.S. ability to go full stupid in an election.

    How can he not know that a Senator from the Democrat party during his presidency was biracial and proud of it? How could he miss that the opposing ticket during a months-long presidential campaign had a minority woman on it? It kinda made the news.

    Yet, somehow, people are trying to leverage Trump's proclaimed ignorance of Harris's ethnicity into a disparagement of Harris. That's crazy. How desperate for an argument can one be?
