That VP debate was good. I loved how Vance kept explaining facts and calling out the mediators for fact checking, and at the same time, fact checking them.

The Contract deal? Uh... never happened and that was debunked a long time ago.

Kamala's promises are just words. The same thing she said last year. If you had a job and paid for your own stuff, you would see that her words are just that... "WORDS!" do a little research on her accomplishments. Then do research on her failures. She's a Con artist.
Affordable housing for who? She plans on doing for the illegal immigrants, just like Newsom. She's not going to do anything to benefit the middle-class
Child tax? Trump said the same thing, along with not taxing tips and overtime. Tax cuts for the middle class? Again, that's what she said last time. Didn't happen! Don't forget, she PRAISED Bidon-nomics. She went on air talking about how proud she was of it. All of these handouts that she's giving to the illegals are going to force the middle-class tax hike. Again, you probably are not that knowledgeable about economics.

The boarder? She did such a great job with it as being the boarder czar. By the way, as the boarder czar, she had the power to put in place any new boarder laws. However, she spent more time trying to sue Texas for putting up more barriers. Yeah... that sounds like she's really serious about the boarder.

Because of Biden-nomics, which Kamala praised so much, it's going to take years to get our economy back on track.

I'm no Kamala fan, but Kamala didn't have the power to put in place new boarder laws. As a matter of fact, she wasn't given much power at all. I think they just wanted a female minority to be the "boarder czar" and she was an easy DEI appointment.

Additionally, we aren't suffering from Biden-nomics. We suffering from the results of decades of bad policy - NAFTA, GATT, invading Iran, Fed policy from ~2008-2023, Trump and Biden dumping unprecedented amounts of money into the economy, unchecked immigration since the 1980s, walking away from the petrodollar, etc, etc, etc.

It's clear if the next POTUS were to be assassinated (because clearly the Secret Service's DEI initiatives are an unmitigated failure), Vance it a much more capable man than Walz.

@Buck - you'd probably like this. It's long, but this guy does a pretty good job of explaining his positions. He hits on some of the CIA operations "against" the American public and the CIA cover up of the spirit world (which I think you've posted previously).

Edit: I guess the forum won't let me post the link. Search Youtube for "The Greatest Lie Ever Told" by WhatIfAltHist.

Very true. All is true. Kamala didn't have the power put laws in place, but she had the power to bring them to the table. She did nothing but show support for the open boarder. She could have stopped the lawsuits against Texas putting up barriers.

All the presidents dumped too much money into worthless stuff. I give Trump the nod for putting much of it into industry in the US. He had to do that to help reverse the effects of NAFTA.

I don't think Kamala could have stopped the lawsuits. Trump was just throwing money at the economy, no strings attached and the Gov't/taxpayers got fleeced as a result.

Walz just shows to be a puppet who is only interested in power and being popular.

I won't sugar coat it. It IS Bidenomics to blame for the current state of the union. Harris COULD have been assertive with Biden and or his puppeteers to make things happen over the last 3+ years. Truth be told, she has NO balls to get anything done and she is campaigning on empty promises for the next 4 years just for votes. She knows she is not qualified to run a nation... but she loves the attention.

I'm still shocked at how incompetent and undesirable the Dem ticket is. They have me seriously considering a Trump vote after 3 decades of voting 3rd party.
