Democrats are excited about Harris and as of this writing she's raised 100 million dollars since Biden announced he was dropping out and throwing his support behind her.
Quote"Republicans, I worry, vastly underestimate Kamala Harris. They don't think very highly of her. They don't think she's terribly bright. When you or I bring up Kamala Harris' name in Republican circles, people laugh. It's immediately a punchline," Cruz said Monday on his podcast "Verdict with Ted Cruz."
Cruz warned against Republicans preemptively celebrating a Trump-Vance win months out from the election, arguing Democrats and the media will promote Harris as an "historic" candidate.
Crusades said:Hate to say it but she did well. I'm disappointed in Trump. Took the bait and didn't call out the moderators bias.
How were the moderators biased?
"Trump spoke for approximately 42 minutes and 52 seconds, while Harris spoke for 37 minutes and 36 seconds. Trump used about 12 minutes and 54 seconds of his total speaking time to attack Harris, while the vice president dedicated 17 minutes and 25 seconds to criticizing her opponent."

What explains your inability to see Trump's disqualifying character flaws and pathological symptoms of mental illness? I don't want to assume.

What are the moderators to do with this?
Considering that the vast majority of Trump's supporters believe what he says...
This article from CNN uses the word egregious for some of his comments. Odious is another word I heard and agree with:
"Donald Trump delivered more than 30 false claims during Tuesday's presidential debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, CNN's preliminary count found - as he did during his June debate against President Joe Biden.Trump again delivered a staggering quantity and variety of false claims, some of which were egregious lies about topics including abortion, immigration and the economy.
Harris was far more accurate than Trump; CNN's preliminary count found just one false claim from the vice president, though she also added some claims that were misleading or lacking in key context"
(You can find the fact checks in many places. They really aren't debatable)

Why would they think that Trump would be better on the economy when the experts don't think that and Trump caused government shutdowns which harmed our economic rating in his failed first term after he blew up our debt and deficit with more trickle down nonsense? Why do people believe stiff that's not true while ignoring a Trump's own words and actions? Why do you believe he's better on the economy even though the evidence doesn't support that? I mean, this irresponsible liar and cheat managed to lose money with casinos.
My question had nothing to do with Trump.
I'll try one more time. What lies and propaganda about Harris are 50% of independents believing that make them say she is too liberal or progressive?

Trump is mentally ill. He can't help himself. Poor impulse control is one of the symptoms of both FT Dementia and NPD. Harris did her homework. She was prepared, he wasn't.
Is it biased to correct obvious untruths? Is it biased to tell the debaters that their time is expired? Or maybe you could be specific about the moderator bias. I mean, they didn't lead him around from topic to topic like Hannity or Musk, is that what you mean?

Lies and propaganda which misrepresents Biden's record and her as too liberal or too progressive are all over social media and cable programming and radio. What's hard about this? I listen to right wing radio. I stream some right wing content from Fox. The right wing smear machine is well oiled. You can keep trying to pretend that you have no idea.

I am aware of many things that in my mind make her too liberal. I don't doubt that in your mind she is not.
Apparently you're not aware of any lies or propaganda that have made half of independents say that she is.
It's interesting that you think that so many independents, many of which voted for Biden, are now all of sudden susceptible to right wing propaganda.

You are welcome to discuss those things that you find too liberal.
Really, I'm not aware? Aren't you the one who has indicated that you don't know of any propaganda or misinformation about Harris?
I think that all of the public needs to be careful about the media and digital information that they consume. There is an abundance of propaganda, disinformation, and misinformation in our public domain. A good deal of the "creative" content on social media is intended to be divisive and misleading in this modern era of conmen, grifters, and charlatans. I'm curious that you think that nefarious voices only seek out right wing spaces. There is lots and lots of deceit in a world of alternate facts.
toomuchbaloney said:Aren't you the one who has indicated that you don't know of any propaganda or misinformation about Harris?
Correct. I am unaware of any propaganda and misinformation that would make half the people in a poll, including independents, mistakenly think she is too liberal or progressive.
