Do republicans really think debating Kamala Harris is the winning strategy for them?

[Anonymous]

Does it really matter if she's Indian American or African American? Really?

Yes this is the winning strategy. We will keep attending her race

No this isn’t a winning strategy and republicans need to change to a different talking point fast!

I don’t care if its a winning strategy or not! I will continue to question her race because i got free speech like a real American!

Meant to say her ‘race’ in the title. Debating her race or ethnicity really isn’t gonna help them out electorally in my opinion

Well, yeah.

Trump turned down the scheduled ABC debate because Biden dropped out.

However, he accepted a Fox debate (friendly territory) and that would have an audience (likely pro-Trump). He needs an audience for a soap box.

=======

Ironically, even though much of what he said in the last debate was full of shit, he presented himself very well - I was impressed and I can't stand the guy. For the most part, he kept his shit together instead of like he did in that "shitshow" of a debate in 2020. He showed some witty retort too.

So, I believe returning to a live audience may actually backfire on Trump. If he becomes undisciplined again like in 2020, he's going to have problems.

This is because Harris was a prosecutor. She knows how to keep her shit together. It's dangerous to argue with a lawyer because it is what they do for a living. They are TRAINED to argue effectively. She's going to treat this like a court case. And, this time, unlike the 2020 Democrat primary debates, it's just her and her opponent, not a plethora of wannabee Dems opponents in a primary debate.

Trump has debated in all kinds of environments though. This is his third time running for president. He has debated when the moderators were Democrats.

[abc3643]

@OhMyMan Trump becomes undisciplined when there's an audience involved because he feeds off of that. He kept his s*** together in the previous debate because he didn't get a chance to feed off the audience because there was no audience. So that just enabled him to focus a little better instead of getting whipped up into a frenzy like alligators on a wounded gazelle.

Yes it is.. she’s so damn unlikeable. She didn’t even get 1% of the vote in her home town when she ran last time… she was useless as the “border czar”. She’ll fail hard against him in this.

[Asker]

Cool. You keep deluding yourself over there and keep it up

[Anonymous]

It kind of speaks to her character. She identifies as whatever she thinks is politically beneficial at the time. If she grew up immersed in the Indian culture, and that is how she's always identified, pretending that she identifies as black now is just dishonest. Switching accents depending on who she's speaking to is dishonest.

Like it or not, she is the one that continues to put her race front and center. She's the one that's trying to convince black people she's just like them. Saying things like "I'm out here in these streets", when she has no clue about these streets. She hasn't been out in the streets a day in her life. The media won't call her out for being fake, someone needs to.

[Asker]

Yup just keep hammering away at her race. Itll cost you guys severely

[Opinion Owner]

She keeps making her race an issue. And those of you that love identity politics just eat it up. You can be all in your feelings when we're all starving.

[Opinion Owner]

I don't give a shit what her race is. I just can't stand fake people.

[Asker]

Are you sure we are the ones who keep bringing up race? I think you’re gaslighting us here. Typical of your kind as well…

[Opinion Owner]

I said she does. Her. Not you.

[Asker]

Ok post your example. Lets see

[Opinion Owner]

It's all the things she does to convince you she's just like regular black folks. It's acting like she has never acted in the past and using vernacular she hasn't used before. It's her trying to sound hood when she's speaking in Detroit. It's going into a black owned record store and grabbed an album and claiming it's her favorite (then why is she just buying it? ) If you don't see it, you don't want to.

[Asker]

Lol yup you’re a racist. Own it!

I can bring up sooo many examples of Trump not only attacking her race but every poc’s race too. But you can’t point to any examples yourself. Its just ‘vibes’ to you i guess. Well news flash you need more than just ‘vibes’ to prove your point here. But your kind was also never good at actually backing up your points with facts.

Anyways its clear you guys have completely lost the plot and it will cost you this November

[Opinion Owner]

My kind? And what is my kind? If you want to vote for a fake that has done more to hurt black people than help, go ahead. I have an issie with black people being lied to and used for votes, but I'm the racist? Sure. And for the record, Trump is an asshole, but I was better off economically under him, so...

[Asker]

Yup you are a racist as I already explained in my previous comment.

And yes ‘your kind’ = gaslighty, racist, and also likely a narcissist with that ‘i was better off under trump despite him being a racist asshole’ thing you posted at the end of your statement there. So As long as you get what you want you can overlook every organic bad shit he’s done to everyone else.

Very nice. Ill be sooo happy to see you guys fail miserably in election day.

Cry harder

Lmao

Trump needs the debate, Kamala doesn't. She's already ahead and gaining even more momentum. Only the people losing and behind in the polls need something significant like a debate to catch back up.

[Asker]

I meant to put ‘race’ in the title of this question. Republicans keep attacking her race thinking this is what will help them. It won’t.

Otherwise i agree he has to debate Kamala or he’ll be seen as a huge coward and weak which are death knells for fascists like Trump.

[Anonymous]

It will be amusing to witness him crash and burn in front of a professional debater and his adoring fangirls.

[Anonymous]

In your opinion, which side of the political spectrum emphasizes race more, the left or the right? Which side makes race more fundamental to their worldview and politics? In my opinion, it's the left.

[Asker]

the right easily. they can't stand that a black woman is now the frontrunner of the left. same as how they lost their minds when a black man was the president of the US too.

[Opinion Owner]

Both parties always lose their minds over the other candidate though. Republicans lost their mind of Biden and Clinton too. Democrats lost their mind of Bush and Trump. It has nothing to do with race.

[Asker]

It shouldn’t have to do with race but republicans and Trump can’t help themselves
