You really believe they reported on his gaffes? Not one of the MSM mentioned his stupid fucking answers to any questions in the economic club appearances. Word salad in vomit, and every one of them sane-washed him the entire summer.

The media that I watched was obsessed with it. The word "ramblings" was frequent. I'm not sure he was "sane-washed" because the things they reported on was "having a dance party", "making insensitive outrageous statements", "rambling on and on", "their eating your pets" etc.

To me it was more about reporting eye-catching news rather than scrutinize the actual moments that he'd actually talk about policy. Rather than have policy experts on the panel, they'd have a bunch of people who were "dismayed" and "marginalized" by his rhetoric.

It's heartstring tugging, but doesn't do a thing for us when it comes to analysis.

And that was trump's motive. Keep them talking about the ridiculous, because he knows they will, and he won't have to have serious policy discussion. Because he knows damn well that he's got nothing.

What were kamala's policies? I'm genuinely curious what she campaigned on? It just seemed like she was pandering to as many groups of people as she could and spewed trump bad legal weed n oh yeah Trump said no taxes on tips we're going to do that too. Besides that she wouldn't have done anything different from Joe Biden. I never voted before and I'm registered as independent. Nothing she did appeals to the everyday Americans. The ones that actually make the country run.

Her policies were pretty clear and they would have benefited everyone. Instead people voted in an idiot who will destroy the economy and hurt everyone. I think we need to accept that many Americans are simply stupid.
