@#18 ... You call that a presser? Please. ...

OK, the MAGA crowd had been most critical of VP Harris for not going out and doing interviews with the press.

Now that she seems to be doing exactly what the MAGA cult was so critical of, what else they got?

More criticism that she is doing an interview with lying (to the tune of $700+ million dollars) Fox News?

I mean, really.

@#59 ... I think your alias is lying. ...

How so?

Let me ask ...

What are the details of the mandatory buy-back that you assert? Please be specific.

And then I'll ask, how do those details result in the confiscation of guns?

@#9 ... She's sliding in the polls after the friendlies ...

I've noted that in my comment.

But I do note your current alias' reply avoids the question I asked of your alter-alias.

.

@#5 ... It's okay to acknowledge that both are wrong. ...

One convicted of 34 felonies, with multiple outstanding indictments.

The other ... not convicted of anything, and no outstanding indictments.

Can you say "false equivalence?"

I knew you could.

@#4 ... He's a US citizen. ...

So... your current alias seems to think an immigrant can become a US citizen?

If that is the case, I have many questions ....

@#25

Yeah, I saw similar reports today that the "trucks of militia" could not be confirmed.

However, given the dire situation that the good people of western North Carolina are facing, I have to ask a simple question ...

Why is the GOP apparently so against FEMA trying to help those who suffer from this disaster?

@#48 ... mandatory buy back isn't taking them away? ...

Not really.

A buy back of assault weapons (mandatory or otherwise) is not taking away guns.

@#6 ... She performed poorly on the friendliest platforms. ....

How so?

@#6 ... Nate Silver is no longer with 538. ...

Yup, ESPN picked his opinions up.

That aside, I have tended to avoid the 538/Nate Silver opinions because they are just that ... opinions.

Stated differently ...

I prefer to look at the raw polling data, not what others may view of that data.

Why?

Well, for one, the raw polling data presents the margin of error right out there, up front.

And in this current race for the Oval Office the margin of error is most important.

At this point either VP Harris or fmr Pres Trump could win. imo.

@#3

I've not a clue what you are trying to say.

Please try again.

thx.

@#15 ... You still openly support a person who interfered in a federal election - trying to manipulate the outcome with false documentation provided by a foreign spy. ...

Huh?

WTF is your current alias talking about?

Got links?

@#45

Repeating a reply in bold does not make that reply a better answer to the question asked.

@#39

So, you admit you have nothing in response to "can you post a quote that Kamala Harris EVER said she would take away guns?"

I see nothing in your post that says she would take away guns.

What else yer got?

@#35 ... I didn't know the statement was untrue ...

So, your current alias admits that it has not a clue regarding the veracity of what it posts?

Quelle surprise.

@#1 ... Although the vaccines do provide short term protection, the bad news is neither Covid mRNA vaccines nor being infected with Covid provide long term immunity/protection from infection: ...

I read the cited article, and one thing I noticed was that "short-term" was not really defined.

Yeah, there was the nebulous "few months" description.

But what does "few" mean?

2 0r 3?

5 or 6?

Currently, I am waiting 4 months between COVID booster updates.

Is that 4 month period within the "few months" of the article?

Much like when COVID first appeared on the stage back in 2020 (e.g., was it passed on by touch or air?), not enough seems to be known ...

@#1 ... where Trump is afraid to follow, lmao! ...

Yeah.

Fmr Pres Trump has shown himself to be all bravado in his words, but quite the coward in his actions.

I remember a supporter of fmr Pres Trump on this most august site once telling me, don't listen to fmr Pres Trump's words, watch his actions.

During this campaign season, fmr Pres Trump's actions seem to be more of a coward, not a leader.

He seems to be relying upon his vacuous words, rather than actions.

With Pres Putin seeming to have such an influence politically within the GOP, is this his next incursion into the US?

More from the article...

... U.S. military personnel reported drones appearing in restricted airspace over Langley Air Force Base in Hampton, Virginia, shortly after sunset during a period of more than two weeks, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The drones appeared in December last year, according to the report, pulling in officials across the Pentagon, FBI and the Defense Department's specialized office for investigating unidentified aerial phenomena.

One senior official based at Langley told The Journal that multiple drones headed across Chesapeake Bay and further south toward the city of Norfolk. They reportedly traveled across Naval Station Norfolk, the world's largest naval port and the main base for the Navy's vaunted SEAL Team Six. Unless the drones are an imminent threat, by law they cannot by shot down near military bases. ...

@#15 ... Even I recognize ...

... and that is an important nugget to add to the conversation .... why?

... she thought an older white ...

Whoa, back up there cowboy.

So you seem to have a concern about age?

What say ye about fmr Pres Trump's age?

@#14 ... Ok, a portion of the country will view him as an outsider who wants to tear down the government ...

My first question in that area...

When someone states that they want to destroy something, I have to ask --- and replace it by what?

That is where fmr Pres Trump's Project 2025 leanings come into play.

@#14 ... You know, the thing is, for most democrats/liberals/progressives, we simply can't conceive how half the country could/will vote for that sack of suet. ...

My concern has a few aspects.

One aspect is how so-called Christians do anything but criticize fmr Pres Trump's actions.

Nary a peep from the Christians on that regard.

So, now Christians now think it is OK for a man to sexually assault a woman.

And other things ...
