Report: Policy Details Hamstring Harris’s Debate Prep Sessions
Breitbart ^ | 5 Sep 2024 | WENDELL HUSEBØ

Posted on 09/05/2024 9:15:00 AM PDT by Mr. Mojo

Vice President Kamala Harris is reportedly struggling to prepare to debate former President Donald Trump on Tuesday due to an overwhelming amount of policy details.

Harris, who is now the Democrat nominee without receiving one primary vote, is conducting debate prep to avoid being shellacked again after the 2020 cycle when then-Democrat Rep. Tulsi Gabbard held Harris accountable for her radical left record.

To void a second catastrophe, the Harris campaign is trying to knock off the vice president’s “rust as a debater and her tendency to overprepare and fixate on the details,” nearly a dozen people involved with or aware of the preparations told NOTUS.

Articulating policy specifics appears to be difficult for Harris, who is known for awkward statements about simple ideas.

Harris debate sessions “have careened sideways when the vice president focused too narrowly on minute details, effectively derailing the sessions,” two people familiar with the process told NOTUS. As a result, Harris’s mock debate sessions do not include policy discussions to avoid too much focus on facts, another source familiar with prep detailed.

She’s trying to play to 20 different special interests. Trump doesn’t. He can be himself. She cannot.

“the vice president’s ‘rust as a debater and her tendency to overprepare and fixate on the details,’”

That’s hilarious! She’s as dumb as a stump. The only thing she’s ever over prepared for is ... well ... never mind. (Ask Willie.)

How many of these “the most important key, crucial moment of the campaign, one which could determine who will be the next President.” can we take?

Networks: As many as we need for ratings.

Although avoiding most news now to calm my anger, I saw ten minutes of The Five and someone said a really good performance by Kamala could let her sail to the White House based on momentum and news coverage of her as appealing.
That’s a nightmare scenario. They probably said it about Biden, though.

I hope Kamala starts laughing uncontrollably, maybe about the deaths of hostages, impending nuclear war by the major powers or the rapes and murders of Americans by illegal border crossers. All results of the Biden-Harris policies after Trump left.

Good analysis.

“All she has are giggles.”

And the corrupt media. She probably will have the questions ahead of time. Wouldn’t it be funny if she rattled off her memorized answer to wrong question and then cackled about it?

They will also be trying to trip Trump up. Expect lots of questions about abortion and climate change.

She’ll be all over the map, contradicting her previous comments with each new word salad she pukes up.

The articles are already written, and talking points distributed.

The media have already decided that Kamala stood up to Trump and had her facts straight and was courageous in the debate.

Their template is already set up.

Shouldn’t be difficult. All she has to do is copy Trump’s positions which are already published. The media will do the rest for her.

They should teach her magic tricks she can do with her flying hands. That might provide enough distraction from what she is not saying.

Five words that sum up Kamala Harris:

Absent, inaccessible, unaccountable, incompetent, ignorant. Unfortunately she is surrounded by people less competent than herself — because Democrats always hire down so that they are not outshone by their “subordinates.” Why does she think Joe Biden chose her?

25% tax on unrealized capital gains: Classic example would be Warren Buffett. He owns 40% of Berkshire Hathaway stock. It goes up because he never sells — making his shareholders rich. His cost basis is one cent — or all of his net worth. If he has to sell 25% in the first year, the stock will go down by at least that much — as all the other investors have to prevent a loss. A 25% gain is far more than even the most successful investors can achieve — which makes investing of any kind unfeasible. There are no refunds for losses. 25% is a high bar to achieve. Grocery stores (price gougers according to Harris) only make 1-2% for all their work and efforts. And one is advised to steer clear of financial advisers charging 1% of their net assets — regardless of gains or losses. It’s the fleecing of the sheep.

I’m going to go out on a limb and predict Newsom will be the nominee in a month.

Nope. If the Dems switch again, they’re done. Even the most moronic are not going to buy into that.
