According to Trump and his team, Harris wants the mics unmuted and also wants them to be sitting down and bringing notes to the debate.

A crutch? You call being prepared a crutch? You know, Trump would probably say the same thing. He doesn't read or listen to anyone.

I call having notes on the debate stage a crutch.

why don't you?

which presidential candidate in the past has had notes on hand during a debate?

pictures, if possible,

Are you assuming a great communicator knows everything about everything?

A great communicator has no problem saying he/she doesn't know everything. Politicians are well known for trying to hide that fact with a great number of words that don't really mean anything. This is Kamala (what have I been doing for 4 years?) Harris' big problem. She not only spews nonsense, but she also resorts to cackling like a hyena to cover her embarrassment at not knowing.

 

[hadit]

why not just give her a teleprompter?

While we're at it, let's give her a proxy to stand in for her so she doesn't actually have to say anything at all.

 

[Rawley]

Trump said yesterday he thought mics should be on, when asked about it by reporters....so, who knows what the truth is?

Truth is that your candidate is trying to change the rules that everyone already agreed to.

 

[Rawley]

Her prep probably isn't going well.

.

She's not intelligent.

 

[Rawley]

Why do you object to sitting or having notes?

Because you don't do either at a Presidential debate.

 

[Rawley]

Its great. He is spinning off ranting. The more he rants, the better she does.

You don't like it when exposes your candidate as a featherbrained hypocrite, huh? Your cult leaders should have picked someone that was confident and competent.

quit bothering surada

she's busy trying to find pictures of presidential candidates holding notes at a debate.

 

[debbiedowner]

Trump said he really doesn't care if mic is open or closed, it's his team that wants them closed.

It’s about Trump afraid to be on TV with Harris.

Trump afraid?! The airhead DEI PICK knows she’s so clueless on the issues and cannot speak for herself that she wants to bring in notes OTHER PEOPLE have written for her!

The debate is to see how the candidates think on their feet, how knowledgeable they are, and how persuasive they are with their words. Harris is scared to death because she knows she a complete fiction, knows very little, and can’t speak for herself.

Without notes, that will be exposed.

I know that wanting to be accurate is a foreign concept to MAGAs. It’s not valued. Perception is everything. Reality is nothing.

 

[MisterBeale]

Kamala wants a scripted presentation, not a debate.

Partially.

Remember, Kamala's background is a lawyer. IN a setting where she knows what to expect, she can excel. More than likely, in such a situation as that, she would kick Trump's ass.


On the other hand?



When she has to do impromptu speaking, and interact with the press or the public in an extemporaneous manner, where she is unable to have underlings prep for her in any meaningful way?


She would be doomed. Everyone knows Trump excels at that sort of thing.





Folks that pay attention know this.

Vice presidents are always invisible.

A debate is a formal public discussion where opposing arguments are presented on a specific topic or topics. Debates are often held in a controlled, civil setting and can involve two or more people. The goal of a debate is to persuade the other side or the judges that your points are more valid.
In a debate, each side will:
Use examples and evidence to support their ideas
Work towards a conclusion
Show why they believe to have the right answers
Debates can be formal or informal, and can be used for many purposes:
Formal debates: A mediator decides who the winner is, and the debate is bound by rules that are agreed upon beforehand.
Informal debates: The argument can continue until one side gives up.
School debates: Debates can be used for many purposes in a school setting, such as mock debates where students prepare to debate on pre-selected topics.
Recreational debates: Can happen informally in any setting.
Competitive debates: Students can represent teams or schools to participate in debate competitions.
Debates are commonly used in democratic societies to explore and resolve issues and problems. For example, debates can take place between candidates for public office, advocates and opponents of a proposed law, or at a board meeting, public hearing, legislative assembly, or local organization.

She is now leading in most battleground states. Haley was right. The first party that gets rid of their old white guy wins.

 

[MisterBeale]

Why won’t Trump agree to the changes?

Because he is no fool?

 

[Zincwarrior]

She would be doomed. Everyone knows Trump excels at that sort of thing.

He does?

 

[Marener]

Because he is no fool?

He says he’s okay with keeping the mics on. Was he lying?

Excels at the Gish Gallup. He can't stay on topic.. he'll blabber on about flush toilets or water and magnets!

 

[Zincwarrior]

Its ok. If they were on, her campign would be trying the opposite. Its about having him rant and spin. Independents are starting to pay attention as the election nears, and they a candidate ranting about mics and petty nonsense - and getting endorsements from a dude cutting off of the heads of whales with a chainsaw.

Meanwhile her leads in Arizona and Pennsylvania are increasing.

 

[MisterBeale]

Why is Kamalala trying to change the agreement already in place?

Maybe for the same reason she flip flops on any and all issues that are not politically expedient in the moment?


This is what she does. Anyone that is fool enough to vote for her? meh.

Kamala Harris tries to distance herself from Biden in yet another policy flip-flop: ‘Everything about her campaign is fake’

Democratic campaign operatives warn that she risks voters catching on — and realizing she’s selling only cynical political opportunism.
