    Trump is in the head of every African American that saw that clip and not in a good way.

    I’m sure they sympathize with a white billionaire about how unfair ABC’s question was.

    Here's a list of some of Harris' accomplishments. They include procuring $5.5 billion worth of business investments in N. Triangle C. American countries to provide jobs for citizens so they have no need to emigrate to the US. Plus an increase in broadband coverage as part of the Biden infrastructure bill and some gun violence prevention.

    As for Trump. Today was a train wreck. As bad as Biden's debate.

    C'mon. I'm from the South. If you look a little black, you are black. If you are Thai/AA, Indian/AA, white/AA, etc you are black. If you care about the X in this eq. X/AA, YOU have to emphasize it. Is Obama black or white? Tiger Woods freq pointed out his mom's race b/c he thought it insulting to her to refer to him as AA.

    Prince & the Pauper by Mark Twain anyone?

    I had heard that the Black vote had already flipped hard towards Harris (Biden was as low as 50% with them this time... wow!). I thought I saw it was something like 90-10 Kamala.

    Trump is SOL I believe. The young are energized, the blacks are energized, his people are losing faith.

    Barring a major reversal of momentum I think Harris has this thing.

    Wow, she has been a busy woman the last 4 years. All those jobs she created with American tax payers money in Central America was great. Maybe they should elect her there. It sure as hell didn't stop the people from fleeing there and crossing into the US. How is that broadband coming along? And the gun violence prevention? I think if you research you will find it is as unsuccessful as the money she gave away to Central America.

    That is exactly what I thought. I know we have a joking thread about it, but what if Trump drops out! LOL!

    Wow!

    Dude is a mental and physical mess - always has to be doing something odd with his hands. The guy shouldn't be allowed within a hundred miles of DC!

    Looked like he loosened it actually. Maybe trying to get it to splash on her when she drank from it?

    He won't drop out. It's his ticket to immunity.

    I didn't think he did particularly well today and could have done a better job answering their direct questions. But let's be real. Two of the women (ABC & CNN) were disrespectful bitches. They were 35 minutes late. The microphones didn't work, and the two women were rude and out for blood. That is just not journalism and it never happens to the left.

    The billions Harris secured for C. America came from businesses investing in the area. Not taxpayer money. Try reading the link first before commenting. And the number of undocumented immigrants from these countries has started to decline. Unfortunately, more from places like Venezuela are coming.

    What's so amusing to me is the "Colorblindness" Clan forgot that they don't see "color."

    She is both. Both are parts of her identity. Do you not understand how mixed race people work? She is both Black and South Asian (or Indian). One of Obama's parents was white. Do you think he wasn't Black? Actually, you know what, you might be better off not answering that.

    I think he grabbed it, started to open it, and then realized it wasn't his bottle.

    Looks like he was turning it to the right--either way--it was inappropriate--why was he touching the bottle? If someone touched his bottle the SS would be having a fit.
