Just curious Brew. Why is Harris so unqualified?
AG for largest state, United States Senator and 4 years as VP with a lot of time devoted to working with our allies.
Generally that would be a good resume.
Are there specific instances of being unqualified, or just the standard talking point.

That's like saying Donald Trump has a good resume for President because he's actually been President for four years.

Anyway, Trump seemed to have peaked at -145 in the odds yesterday and is back down to -140 today. I think we're in for two straight weeks of "Trump bad" with not much talk about Kamala because, frankly, that's a better, likely more effective strategy.

Yeah, just because you have some other jobs or even the job itself, doesn’t make you qualified for it.

Have you seen her speak? What accomplishments during her run as ag or vp, makes you believe she is qualified? just because she was the ag or have had a few conversations with world leaders doesn’t mean she’s qualified.i mean what tangible things has she done in those positions to make her qualified for president?

Every time Trump opens his mouth it’s bad. It’s astounding how he just keeps pouring gasoline on himself and jumping into the fire, but never really getting burned.

Trump seems to be more and more unhinged lately. But he’s winning, and he’s probably going to win. We are about to reelect a lunatic.

That’s what happens when Kamala is the alternative. As horrible of a person as he is, and certainly no fan of him, he still beats the alternative for me.

With his continuing cognitive decline, you would really be electing JD Vance.
What are his qualifications ?

Saw the best election sign in someone’s yard - “everybody sucks in 2024”. Made me laugh because it wasn’t hand written but looked like your typical Trump or Harris yard sign.
