    Right, because the fake couch story (which would have involved a minor) was more important than talking about someone's actual record. :rolleyes:

    You'll just have to accept that ya girl's first major decision turned JD Vance into a stud. A guy who lied and continues to lie about his military career versus a guy who has been completely honest about his military service. Nice job, Cackles..

    Don't you know by now how this Leftist pick and choose their candidates for president by now? They pick and vote for the candidates with the funnest gotcha lines.

    That seems to be what they base their qualifications on these days. It's a low enough bar... even for Kamala.

    Kamala/Walz - Burn It Down And Bail Them Out!

    This will be talked about more. It appears Kamala is going to try to hide behind one debate. If we get three debates, Trump will lay all of this out. He can do it with one debate, but three would be better.

    When you see the MSM as just another arm of the dem party, it's not at all surprising and makes perfect sense.

    My bad on the year he ran for the House. Still don't think that swiftboat style negative campaign will have the effect on the Democratic ticket that it had when Kerry was running in 2004. As I previously the guy heading the Republican ticket has considerably more baggage on the issue of avoidance of military service than does Tim Walz and while one can always raise legitimate questions as to the timing of his decision to retire it still doesn't offset his 24 years of service and those voters think time of his decision to retire is a really big issue most likely wouldn't vote for Harris/Walz in the first place.

    The couch story, which some unknown dude posted on Twitter, somehow blew up and became the standing punchline. And from the Dems’ perspective, served its purpose—it robbed Trump-Vance of momentum. And, as a plus to me, it made for some hilarious and entertaining memes and jokes.

    It’s campaign season, so who knows what catches on and what doesn’t. In the end, you people need to decide whether you’re gonna stick with the guy who incoherently blathers about nonsense.

    Feel free to copy their tactics. BY ALL MEANS, replace your old, senile, mentally degrading candidate with someone else.

    I promise you, America will be grateful.

    Saying MSM is all wrong or just another arm of the Dem party is lazy and just a way to feel good when they report on trump. He does stupid crap all the time, if he doesn't want his stupid stuff reported, he needs to stop doing stupid stuff.

    But, for the sake or argument, can you let us know what you consider MSM? I primarily read The Hill and BBC, is that MSM and therefore part of the Dem party?

    At least you’re honest.
    I mean she has absolutely nothing else going for her.
    Sad. I can’t get excited about the cons candidate.
    Kills me.

    She's not after your vote but to normal people she's a former DA, former Attorney General, former Senator, former VP. If she just had gameshow host and business fraudster on her resume you really smart guys would line up to vote for her.

    Thanks. And I hate to say this because you're always so solid, but ....:cool: That's the campaign saying he was chairman, not CBS. But they didn't correct it.

    So, you're relying on punchlines from fake stories to carry Kamala's campaign. That sounds like a brilliant political strategy.

    That equals a loss in November. Biden wasn't Trump, but Biden had some accomplishments and (at the time) a somewhat moderate voting record to run on.

    Fair, and I could have worded my criticism better - what I was trying to point out was the absurdity of their fact check having an obviously false statement on the lead card of their fact check, but then never noting the falsity of the only unequivocally untrue statement shown.

    He walzed out on his unit. A deserter, a liar and a putz.

    She was the AG of the largest state in the country; she served four years in the Senate; and three and a half years as vice president. Prior to running for the presidency Trump had absolutely no experience in any capacity in government; his one truly successful private sector endeavor was as host and creator of a reality television show. He managed six companies to bankruptcy and had a history of shafting employees, creditor and contractors who did business with him. Perhaps his only real talent is as an insult standup comedian.

    Are we looking at Walz in a vacuum or are we looking in comparison to Trump/Vance? IMO there's not much point in looking at any of these candidates in isolation since this is all about making the best decision we can for who is going to lead the country among the realistic choices.

    That being said, anyone who has given Walz a fair shake and thinks Trump is a more truthful, admirable, or honorable man is either lying or has a warped sense of priorities.
