" If I were Harris, I would do at least one event where I invite E. Jean Carroll and all of the other accusers to attend, and to speak if they wish. Just having them together in the audience — maybe to a debate"

That's exactly what Trump did at one of his debates with Clinton - stack the audience with women her husband had had affairs with.

The experience of beating tfg in a court of law gives you the right to advise our party of methods and tactics. Thanks for being here when we need a good word. The team that took down the former guy is now all in for Kamala, she needs all of us working together in a constructive manner to win. She has the knowledge, education and capacity to be our next great president, we just need to put her there.

Biden's age. The shield has been lifted from tRump orbit and focus placed back in his direction. He will be openly vulnerable. Good hunting Kamala!

Call the pink pussycat hat women who led the biggest ever organized March and marched around the WORlD against Trump in 2017. They make a big voice.

What is the number one reason that Kamala Harris will be a better president than DJT, by far?

A: KH will actually do the job of president! Examples:

She will do everything an excellent president needs to do!

She will get out of bed and start work well before 11:00 a.m., unlike Trump.

She will do her job instead of watching TV much of the day in bed, unlike Trump

She will read everything she needs to read to be informed to do her job. She won't have to have picture books designed exclusively for her., because Trump hated to read.

It's ironic that he stole all those classified documents, when he hated to read.

She won't play and cheat at golf frequently, unlike Trump.

She won't make her Administration members tell her how great she is in meetings, unlike Trump.

Those are just some of the things that she will do and won't do as president.

As for the other presidential candidate, he will never do the work of president! He didn't do the work of a real president when he was president.

DJT was a made for TV president.

He watched TV much of each day, entertaining himself.

He played and cheated at golf a lot, a whole lot.

He would hold frequent, unnecessary rallies because he craved the attention and adulation.

He loved being on TV and talking to the Press, because he loved the attention so much.

He loved play acting aspresident. After all, he was president he could do it however he wanted to do it. Who was going to tell him what to do/not do?

Those are just some of the ways that he didn't do his job as president. Why would this time be any different?

In summary, the choice is between a person who will do the job and a person who won't do the job, again.

I love the idea of having all the women and girls he has harmed in the same room together along with gays and trans people. He would die in a New York minute. Right on stage. Tell them that all people involved in the insurrection will be indicted, Jordan, comer, Johnson, mtg, all of them. See how they run for cover.

Please let me add that it is a mistake to lazily repeat the word "democracy" over and over again and expect people to understand what that means. Kamala Harris, and all Democrats, believe that people should be able to *elect their own leaders*. Donald Trump, and most of his allies and the world leaders he envies, completely and utterly reject that principle.

I'd like to encourage Harris to appeal to the traditional American values that have been distorted and buried in Trump's self-interest. While it is important to call attention to Trump's crimes and lies and craziness, I think what will swing the independents the most is a call to return to the American we used to believe in--government of the people, by the people, for the people; equal justice for all; opportunity for those who work hard. Harris is perfectly situated to be the candidate who represents the American dream and reminds us that it can still be who we are if we so choose.

I think Kamala has done this in her rally today - full of traditional American values!

As an unaffiliated voter, I 100% agree with you. Partisan politics has got to go!

Harrus/Walz highlight Trump's errors: Trump declared the US must be active in bitcoin mining or China will rule bitcoin mining. That's incorrect, & shows Trump is WAY out of touch. After banning initial coin offerings & ordering the closure of exchanges in 2017, the Chinese government went on to ban bitcoin mining in 2021 & declaring all cryptocurrency-related businesses illegal, saying they disrupted economic & financial order & were a breeding ground for criminal activity.

I appreciate your articles very much. The hypocrisy with the gun list & Diablo Donald, the martyr was revealing. We know the mobster behavior and that Repugs can play dirty. Their control with the Supreme Court is very scary.

The Biden/Harris team has done some good things for America. But I also appreciate fair play.

Understanding now that the Dems have used smear tactics & massive amounts of money blocking ballots for 3rd party candidates is incredibly disheartening for someone here who has always had faith & voted blue.
