Why I am voting a Kamala Harris

[PotimusWillie]

Bring it.

Why are you voting for her, not why you are not voting for Trump.

It gets quiet on this board at times.

To be fair, I stated my reasons I am voting for Trump. So I played the game first.

I don’t want to debate your reasons, just want to better understand your reasoning.

[d-dawg]

I’m voting for her because she said that she would lower prices on everything after she takes office.

I want to see how she pulls that off.

Is there an echo in here. Seems weird.

Trump claims not to know who is behind Project 2025. A CNN review found at least 140 people who worked for him are involved | CNN Politics

Donald Trump has lately made clear he wants little to do with Project 2025, the conservative blueprint for the next Republican president that has attracted considerable blowback in his race for the White House.

What comes next after Trump's Project 2025-bashing tour

The former president’s campaign wants complete control of its message. But criticizing Project 2025 doesn’t mean its preparations are going away.

Let’s hear some Kamala positivity.

The SCOTUS ruling on presidential immunity says Trump or any president can do whatever he wants. This as long as he says he is doing it in his role as President. Now Trump could if as president he shoots somebody in the middle of Fifth Ave he would not only lose any votes, he could not be prosecuted.

He praises dictators and does not support Ukraine. His talks about NATO in a way that tells me his buddy Putin is telling him what to do.
He won't condemn Putin for bombing hospitals, churches and schools.
HE SAYS HE WANTS TO SUSPEND THE CONSTITUTION! He has sworn to to honor it!

He wants to put some immigrants into detention camps. USA did that to Japanese decedents in WWII.

He spoke at the Freedom Caucus ans says their project would be his plan for a second term.
In Atlanta he praised the election officials who said they wouldn't certify the election.
He wants to be a dictator like Putin and Viktor Orbán.
I could go on and on.

Harris ain't Trump.

Wow you are unhinged. The SCOTUS ruling does not say that. Seriously learn to read. If so why would Biden not rule Trump is ineligible to run?
Just making up crap and or repeating the same crap dishonest idiots are saying.
You are right Kamala is not Trump she is worse. That is saying a lot.

 

[brimur]

I am voting for normalcy. All politicians lie, cheat, and mislead. Our system heavily rewards such. But Trump is so far outside the norm that he has caused 40% to question the most fundamental facts and institutions that make us a country. I hope that a clear message in support of our Republic will be sent by Americans (for a third time) this November.

Kamala actually is exactly what I want right now, a generally and basically competent president. She did good work in the Senate and in her time as AG.

While I dont agree with your tone, you are 100% right that the SCOTUS ruling does not say that. That ruling has been grossly misinterpreted by my fellow liberals.

ok, so basically, you have no idea what policies she has, and whether or not you support them.. gotcha.

here, I'll help you out....Kamala says No Tax on Tips..... LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL, you are a fool.

What has she done?
All I have seen is incompetence when she is put charge of something.
Our country is falling apart. We cater to every special interest group to the point there are very few commonalities anymore. We have become a society of self seeking, self righteous individuals.

My tone is out of frustration because no one wants to acknowledge the truth just their version of what they want the truth to be. Let’s slant things in a way to make it look better and the truth and accuracy be damned. No one is willing to hear they might be wrong and willing to hear dissenting opinions with an open mind.

 

[poorpreacher]

So far, most of what I've read is "I'm scared of Trump".

Even worse, intuition probably makes truths reasonable to people, but people don't want to acknowledge those truths and would rather lie to themselves to defend the status quo.

 

[OriginalGatorHator]

its either because:

a) they are gay; or

b) they hate white people

 

[mitchelldawg]

How about this.....If you want Trump to be President, vote for him.
If you want Kamala to be President, vote for her.
If you don't want either one, don't vote for either one.
Whatever choice you make, you are not un-American, you are not evil, you are just making a choice.
No one on here is changing anyone else's mind about anything no matter how many posts we make.
Go vote (or not) and see what happens.

That is the American way Mitchell. This is a message board. What you posted will happen either way. Just some of us are curious as to how you can support someone to run the country. Yet not support anything they stand for. People like you and others are put in a spot here where all you can say is she isn’t trump. We aren’t voting for student council. Or prom queen. It shouldn’t just be a popularity contest. Half the pubs here in the chat don’t like trump either. But realize his policy views are much more likely to work going forward. What does it say when the left is so fired up simply because they can justify their vote. We screwed up and elected a vege. So this time we aren’t voting for a vege, but we are voting for a worse version of the right’s Sarah palin.

she can dance, laugh/giggle and it keeps Trump out of office.......he's the debil.

And maybe, just maybe I finally get my reparations with 40 acres AND a mule.

I’m in the neither block. I consider it a protest non vote.

Otherwise I’ll vote Republican down ticket. Thankfully MTG doesn’t represent East Cobb. Don’t want Harris but if the Republicans can hold at least one house nothing much will happen till the midterms and maybe there will a new leadership and fresh vision for the party.

I held my nose and voted for Trump twice but not again. I’m sick and tired of his act even if I generally align with most of his platform. If we wins the state it won’t be with my vote.

 

[Dillenger1914]

I do not like President Trump. The man. Hence, I will vote for VP Harris.

 

[PharmDawg08]

She's not Trump. I don't particularly like Harris but it's BY FAR the lesser of the 2 evils. Haley would have made this far more difficult for me.

I'm ready for it all to fall apart. If voters aren't going to vote for the good of the country then what's the point?

Where is this fresh new vision going to come from? Sounds like kicking the can while the establishment continues their ways.

And why would anyone not want reparations, if they are due payments that haven't been paid? The debt is still gaining interest.

Why am I not surprised?

 

[Dillenger1914]

Why am I not surprised?

Probably because you know I don't bite my tongue for anything or position, no matter how dark or unpopular it may be. You brought it up...not me.

Where will the money be coming from?

 

[Dillenger1914]

Where will the money be coming from?

Wherever they pulled it from to pay other countries.

Wherever they pull it from to give tax breaks.

Wherever they pulled it from when they paid reparations in the past to other races/ethnicities.

Wherever they pull it from when the US government subsidized different areas.

Do a Popcorn sale or something.

I feel JOY & not anger, hate & not trusting a liar ! So Mrs Harris brings me JOY in thinking about USA Future , while Mr Trump brings anger,distrust & He is a liar! GO DAWGS

There is only place that eventually pays for it all, tax payers.

Which leads to more questions, if this can be pulled off without bankrupting the country and its citizens.

Who qualifies?

1) only 1 race, or do other races and ethnicities qualify too….which one or ones??

2) what qualifies the race/races or ethnicity? IE, do you have to be 100%, 50%, 30% (race/ethnicity) etc to get paid??

Where do you draw the line?

3) Do we give land, money, both, other and how much??

All good points.....but to put your head in the sand and ignore it or say it's not warranted or to find reasons NOT to clean this up or any other trivial excuse does not remove the burden on these United States of America.

It's something that should have been done waaayyyyy before either you or I was born. Let's correct at least one evil from our past that everyone knows should be done.

The who and what can be decided by people a lot smarter than me. The why should be agreed on by most Americans and should not have taken this long.

Exactly right and here is a perfect example of a wrong that could be corrected by the GOP is blocking. Black farmers were discriminated against for decades being locked out of capital purely because of their race. If Trump wanted to build good will with black Americans tell congressional GOP to stop blocking this bill.

Nobody is putting their “head in the sand” or saying “it’s not warranted”.

Apparently, you want reparations…..I am just asking questions on how it would work.

Hayul, everybody likes “free shat”…….but I know of nothing free in this circumstance without devastating results.

If you know how it can work, or “reasons” TO without the horrible fallout, let me know…..I’m all in.

I prefer a progressive tax system that sees the majority of any tax cut benefit the middle class more than the wealthy.

The same institutions such as the FBI that interfered with the election in 2020? Those institutions?

I mean in the same paragraph you admitted they they all lie and cheat then immediately insinuate we should trust them

The same FBI who gave legitimacy to the over the top email crap against Hillary just days before the election in 2016? There will always be complaints - but burning down the system is not something I am willing to sign onto. You can. That’s just my view.
