Kamala Harris ad chides Donald Trump for not accepting CNN debate
Law enforcement groups are split between the two candidates.

Watching Georgia-Alabama tonight?

If you’re tuning into this epic SEC rivalry matchup, you’re also going to be reminded of the Kamala Harris faceoff with Donald Trump.

Trump will be on hand for the game. And while Harris won’t be there in person, her campaign will be there in spirit.

In addition to flying a plane over the stadium accusing Trump of “punting” on a CNN debate that was scheduled for October, Harris is also running an ad reiterating her challenge to meet for a second time.

“Donald Trump walked off the stage at the first debate angry and rattled after he failed to offer any coherent vision for where he wants to take this country, so now he’s trying to take his ball and go home. No matter where Trump looks tonight – whether it’s up in the sky or at the TV in his luxury box – he won’t be able to escape the truth: Trump is running away from a second debate with Vice President Harris because he doesn’t want the American people to see just how weak and unpopular he and his Project 2025 agenda are,” said Harris-Walz Communications Director Michael Tyler.

“But winners don’t back down from a challenge. Under the bright lights of the debate stage, the voters deserve to see the choice they will face at the ballot box between moving forward with Vice President Harris or moving backward with Donald Trump. Vice President Harris is going to be in Atlanta on October 23 ready to lay out her case for the American people – Donald Trump needs to step up and do the same.”

        No apology necessary; the fine says it all:
        :
        Fox News agreed to pay Dominion $787.5 million and acknowledged the court’s earlier ruling that Fox had broadcast false statements about Dominion. The settlement did not require Fox News to apologize.

      Fox isn’t a news organization, and they themselves have even admitted as much in a court of law. If you’re watching Fox for news, you are being fed nothing but misinformation.

    Even though candidate Donald Trump has been either thinking about or committing to run for the presidency for at least twenty years, he has never spent any effort to understand the office, or the Constitution……thus he is perennially unprepared to debate. Americans will never vote for a racist, twice impeached convicted felon. Furthermore, and more importantly….. Donald Trump is a horrible role model for America’s youth. Vote for her!

      Trump is just pissed that he was soundly beaten by a mentally impaired person (his words, not mine) last time. Hopefully his handlers will keep him away from the debate stage lest the general public remembers what a fool he really is from his last stint as POTUS.

    Here’s how Michael Steele, the former Republican Nationa Committee Chair, described the September 10 debate: “She spanked his azz.”

    Nothing bothers a racist more than being unable to control a Black woman. DonOLD Trump would not and could not, even look Vice-President Harris in the eye. That’s how big of a coward he is. Go back and look at the moment she walked over to him, shook his hand, and said “Kamala Harris.” From then on, he never mentioned or mispronounced her name, as he always does as a sign of his disdain and disrespect.

    He and his campaign know that he was an absolute failure at the debate, and so do his donors. Even Fox “news” admitted that he was unfocused, rattled and rambling.

    That is why he refuses to debate. He will never admit defeat or a mistake, always blame someone or something else, and he will never take responsibility for his actions.

    Times marches on and Biden is no longer the nominee — though many MAGAs haven’t come to grips with this.

    Trump is the same way. He isn’t in Atlantic City any longer and doesn’t get to set the odds — though he already is whining about the outcome of the election and making plans to subvert it.

          Agreed. Most don’t call it a debate since only one of the two offered any facts or figures that were accurate. The other ranted and raved — and has refused to go a second round.

    IMMIGRATION, IMMIGRATION, IMMIGRATION

    Trump imagines that he’ll be able to deport 11 million or so asylum seekers. No doubt many will leave rather than get roughed up, but many won’t because they can’t go back to violence and/or environmental disaster.

    Perhaps DJT will do as Andrew Johnson did the rebel slaveowning aristocracy and pardon them individually if they approach him reverentially.
