I don't claim it, I was a senior Navy officer. I'm retired. Unless martial law is declared, no, I don't believe the flag officers would carry out an order to use the military on US civilians. Depending on the situation, he could use the National Guard in a US civilian setting. However, we should expect that our Commander in Chief is sane and doesn't have insane wishes or give insane orders.
Harris prez Vance vp. Dem house. Repub senate.
Trump has been on the National stage for 9 years. Kamala for a few months. Voters don’t know her. She is the nominee because she is a minority woman, not because she has a history of accomplishments and loyal grassroots support. The more she is out there, the more people know her. Do they like what they see? Her interviews have been a disaster. There are good reasons she makes herself inaccessible.
And I think that is because she doesn't have a case for herself. She is trying to make the Biden case again except she has a record and reputation that he didn't have (although I think the reputation on him was kind of hooey....)
That doesn’t matter. Each state delegation has one vote. More states will have GOP control.
The first part is what crazed is referring to. But after "voters don't know her", your post is just dumb. She crushed Trump in the debate. It was a big success for her. Her interviews have been successful. She needs to do more of them.
I think that had a huge part in getting Joe Biden elected. Similar to the upcoming election, I don't think there was a ton of excitement to vote for either candidate in 2020. I think a lot of people really hated Donald Trump though.
The problem with this is that he won in 2016 -- and he was hated just as much then. And, whether he wins or loses this year, his numbers are clearly better than they were in 2020. And he's hated just as much now as he was before.
To your last point, I think there are a bunch of people (myself included) who look at the Democrats and say, "Yeah, this guy is an asshole and he does say stupid stuff and there is a slight risk that he could actually mean some of the stuff he says, BUT, I just dislike everything your party stands for so much that I can't bring myself to vote for you. All your defend Democracy stuff doesn't work because I believe that the way you have reacted to Trump is every bit as damaging to the Republic." As you said, the people who don't like him for him are already going to vote against him. The case she should be making is, "You know what, this border thing, we ****ed up. Some of this stuff we are trying to push in schools is too far. You guys do have some points on those things and I will try and do better so we can come back to a point of detente. I also hear you on the economy and while things appear to be looking up on paper, I understand that 4 years of inflation which included several quarters of extreme inflation are still being felt at your table and here is how we can alleviate that....."
The Posse Comitatas Act prevents the use of the military for law enforcement. It does not apply to the National Guard.
I agree that she can't throw out a cacophony, but disagree that anti-Trump energy isn't an important part of motivating turnout. The impact isn't just getting a specific person to vote. It's moving groups to move groups to move groups.
It wouldn't go very far and it is all be things that could be dropped, fixed and changed very easily.
Agree in large part but disagree on incumbency. It would be horrible optics after how they took office to push out the black woman. Optics is why they’re stuck with her
My thoughts are Trump never said that and you’re an easily manipulated stooge if you believe he did.
Their is tons of video. Not really hard to find. And he has repeated it multiple times. Even went so far to name names of 2 from Congress.
This is you obfuscating and explaining away the words of Harris. The very thing you accuse Trump supporters of.
Interesting take, but I disagree a little. I don't think people hated him as much in 2016 as they did in 2020 because the visceral reaction against Trump isn't limited to just the personal dislike for the guy. There's a lot of Presidential performance animus in there, too. There was a whole slice of people who had just spent four years with him and were not fans. Extrapolate John Kelly out to voters and you have reasons for why the suburbs turned away from Trump and to Biden. The Kellys of the world were up for Trump in 2016, but out in 2020. What's interesting is that Jan 6 came after the election, so you might expect some of that to be hardened, but time heals all wounds. So, the $1,000,000 question is whether the assessment in 2024 will be closer to 2016 or closer to 2020.
You compared proposed economic policy to using the military against US citizens. Not me.
You ripped that last line from Jon Stewart you absolute unoriginal, waste of space fraud.
You've ripped your entire life from Tucker Carlson and a some finance bros.
Brain dead is copying Jon Stewart quotes word for word and passing them off as his own.
No thanks Tucker. You never answer a question without a question. You can go cry someplace else.
So? Respond to the point being made rather than whether he heard someone else make the point.
I’ve answered all your questions in this thread. You on the other hand have plagiarized because you’ve never had an original thought in your life.
