Here's how I think about it: Kamala has an interest in doing what she says she will do. The bipartisan border bill is in her interest to pass, because it would improve things. That's why Trump opposed it, because the border getting better is not in his interest.

The crying about the moderators on social media is hilarious. Like hey, maybe your guy shouldn't have been talking about eating pets and killing babies. He talked more than Harris and the moderators kept allowing him to get the last word in. Inadvertently, they gave him enough rope to hang himself with. That's all

The fervent pro-Trumpers and anti-Trumpers weren't having their minds changed last night no matter what. The pro-Trumpers will just cry about media bias and say that the debate doesn't matter, what matters is that they support Trump's policies around tax cuts, immigration, and keeping trans women out of men's sports. It's how they've excused every single one of his ridiculous claims and bombastic remarks for the last decade

What's worse, eating pets and killing babies, or talking about eating pets and killing babies

Did anyone catch that moment when Kamala stressed that Goldman Sachs approves of her economic plans and Trump didn't seize this absolute slam dunk of an opportunity to say "you can be the president for Goldman Sachs, I'll be the president for the American people"? Trump in 2024 is clearly a diminished version of himself. This was a weak performance by him, no doubt about that. He missed so many layups and got constantly distracted and triggered into his worst habits.

Kamala wasn't giving a strong performance either, all her answers were glaringly canned and she had basically zero to offer in terms of policy or vision. Aand she came across as inauthentic all night long. And I think that truly persuadable swing voters did see right through the blatant bias by the moderators...



I agree with Goom, though, that the fundamentals of this race still strongly favor Trump, so this debate was actually much more of a must-win for her than for him. At the end of the day, I don't think this debate changes much, but it was a huge missed opportunity for him. If he ends up losing this election by a tiny margin, he will look back at this debate with regret.

She won the debate, but only because Trump lost it. He's too focused on the little things and he lets them get under his skin. Kamala ducked way too much questions, but if I had to pick a winner, it was her. She knew which buttons to press. Overall, neither won for the American people.

I think if you ever end up in the situation haitians had to face eating cats would not be the worse thing you did.
Just for the record the woman was not a haitian immigrant, nor was she from springfield.


The Canton woman accused of killing and eating a cat has no known connection to Haiti or any other foreign country.
Allexis T. Ferrell is charged with cruelty to companion animals, a fifth-degree felony. It is alleged she killed the cat by stomping on its head before eating it.
Stark County court records show she has faced other charges in the past, including theft and misuse of credit cards and endangering children. Her adult court record goes back to 2017 in Stark County.

"Ferrell was first arrested in Canton in 2011," Canton police spokesman Lt. Dennis Garren wrote in an email on Tuesday. "We have no reason to believe that she is not a US citizen."




As to your story just posted, it dates to 1974, and is about a kid killing a feral cat because they are pests, we shoot them here in australia, i have shot hundreds of them, eating the cat is not mentioned anywhere but i wouldn't care if he did.


So you've gone from denial, to excuses?

I'd be pissed if someone stole my pet goose.

I've had ducks, turkeys and chickens in the past, raised for meat.

It's really happening for some some reasons the news managed to brainwash people thinking it doesn't . Kinda like Canadian news trying to tell people the one talking bout mass immigration issue are far right and lunatics because it ain't happening but everywhere you look = brown people .

75% + of society live online/in front of the tv/on their social medias. Nobody have a clue what's going on outside their safe bubble anymore except when it's time to attend the price parade because it's really important people know what ppl like to get roamed by or that people like to larp the opposite gender.
