The big debate is coming up and I think Kamala will pull out. I could be wrong, but a lot of people agree with me. And she should chicken out – she’s bound to make a fool of herself. Let’s just say that Kamala Harris is not great at public speaking. She did a 41-minute interview with Dana Bash that couldn’t have been more softball if CNN had put a Nerf on a tee in front of her and let her swing away until she hit it. They only released about 18 minutes of her babbling. Where is the rest? We can safely assume she looked like even more of an idiot in the director’s cut. She’s always incoherent. You have to translate her English into English.
Kamala will treat the debate like Tim Walz treats a deployment to a warzone – weasel out of it and then lie about it.
She’s already setting up her excuse with her demands to change the rules. Remember, Donald Trump was absolutely required to honor the debate scheduled with Joe Biden and he agreed to do so, at which point Kamala decided she wanted to change the rules. She now wants Trump’s mic unmuted, presumably so he can interrupt her and allow her to deploy that hacky canned “I’m speaking, sir” line that worked so well on supine invertebrate Mike Pence. She’s obsessing over it and is still tweeting about the stupid microphones. It’s clearly getting under her sagging skin.
Of course, Trump isn’t backing down. ABC News reluctantly had to reaffirm that the rules are the rules. Democrats hate this. Perhaps you’ve noticed that rules are not exactly the rules anymore. There are supposed to be rules for us and no rules for them. The most hilarious recent example of this was when failed pol Claire McCaskill got huffy because Donald Trump pointed out that Kamala’s enthusiastic romantic activities helped her enter politics. Trump used pretty colorful language, and McCaskill fumed, demanding to know when ministers would stand up and reject Donald Trump. But it was unclear why Donald Trump shouldn’t point out Kamala’s history of erotic entrepreneurship. She became a politician by cavorting with a powerful and married Democrat politician. This is not in dispute. McCaskill did not articulate the exact rule that she proposes to be applied, but Donald Trump has famously had his romantic relationships analyzed by the opposition. So, do they propose that Trump cannot point out something true about Kamala, but they can point out something similar about Donald Trump? The left isn’t really big on abiding by its own rules. That’s why we must do it for them.
So, what will Kamala do during this debate if she shows up? She’ll probably be literally shaking. You know she wants to have her emotional support command sergeant major (sic) there by her side. I wouldn’t mind seeing the tag-team death match between Trump/Vance and Harris/Ancient-looking Marxist Fraud Guy. I think JD Vance is going to mop the floor with Tim Walz because the blue falcon is a lying communist scumbag, and JD Vance is an awesome and intelligent vet who deployed.
But putting that aside, Kamala has got a problem. It’s a big problem. She’s not very smart. The only thing she is smart about is knowing that she’s not smart. She knows enough not to speak extemporaneously. She knows enough not to be interviewed. And I suspect she knows enough not to debate.
The regime media has a huge interest in portraying her as a genius. It’s bizarre how important it is for leftists to ensure that other people think they are smart – it’s the most insecure ideology. They’re trying to put out that image for her, and she is doing her part by not speaking and undermining their propaganda. Yet, nobody really believes it, including Kamala. Especially Kamala. That’s why she’s so scared.
So, how is she going to prepare for this debate? Trump makes it hard because Trump is not a typical debater. Trump is not a geeky forensics kid who will clearly state his premise, provide evidence, and then state his conclusion. No, Trump doesn’t think like that. You’re going to get a stream of Trumpishness. He will talk about how Kamala is the worst vice president ever and how Joe Biden is senile and how Rosie O’Donnell is very fat and how he was the best president for the working man ever and how he is also the best golfer at his club. This doesn’t make him a bad debater. It makes him an atypical one, and preparing for an atypical opponent is hard. It will be very difficult for Kamala to get ready for this, and even more difficult for her to react to him because Trump will seize the initiative up on that stage.
And that’s not even considering her handicap – that she’s a moron.
Now, people will tell you that because Kamala was a prosecutor for a short time that she’s good at this stuff. Let me tell you about most lawyers. Most lawyers are freaking terrible. They are incoherent, disorganized, and careless. This is especially true of inexperienced district attorneys like her. I grew up in a house with a competent DA who constantly complained about the incompetent ones. Many elite DAs who prosecute gang crimes, sex crimes, and murders are pretty good. Some are stunningly good. But the kind of DAs assigned to low-level misdemeanors and minor felonies, like Kamala, are not great. Many are new and inexperienced and will learn, but some are just hacks. This is true in civil law, where I practice, as well. A lot of them don’t get much time in court, and when they do they have no idea how to present an argument coherently. Just because you’re a lawyer doesn’t mean you’re good at lawyering. Remember, there’s a bell curve, and half the people live on the downslope. The fact that she was a prosecutor, which she makes no end of citing as some sort of pathetic appeal to authority, effectively means nothing. She was a bad prosecutor and she’s a bad public speaker. This is directly related to the fact that she’s stupid and has a disorganized mind. This is not a woman who got where she is because of achievement. She got there because of powerful men and perfect attendance.
And attendance is the issue. Kamala has already blown off the proposed September 4th debate and the proposed third debate, too. She’s got one debate on calendar, and I don’t think she will show up. We’ll get some excuse about how Donald Trump is a convicted felon of felonies and how it’s inappropriate for her to dignify him by standing on a stage with him and blah blah blah blah blah. The regime media will bark and clap like trained seals.
But if the debate does go forward, I think Kamala is going to look like an idiot – particularly if Donald Trump does the smart thing, like he did with Joe Biden, and just let her run her fool mouth.
I read “and just let her run her fool mouth” in a black accent that was every but a phony and absurd as Kamala.
I have always felt she would try to dodge the debate, because she is terrified of having to speak extemporaneously.
Did anyone notice that whiny voice right after the Georgia school shooting yesterday?
She isnt gonna make it to the debate stage..she’s a dim light..not too bright.
And who says she wouldn’t interrupt her opponent during the debate.?
She has big problems. I am betting her internal poll numbers are dire..why else all the changes. She’s done..all they can do is steal this election too..
As a former poker player, I learned that the players who tried to convince you how smart they are were usually the suckers at the table.
She can’t show up to the debate because Trump will expose her as a complete fraud. Not only will he remind the public that she shares with Biden responsibility for their current financial woes, but he might also expose her for growing up in the most affluent neighborhood in Canada, rather than on the streets of America as a poor oppressed black child who learned to wash collars greens in the bathtub.. poof. There goes half her support.
I suppose Harris’ word salad of cliche’, platitude, and nonsense metaphors will impress her disciples.
