Trump Is Unfit, Yes. But To Beat Him, Harris Must Answer Unscripted Questions From The Media & Voters
36:41
Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe there's enough people who can't stand Trump that Harris can just ride the vibe to victory. But I think she'd increase her odds if she held press conferences and town halls. And...our immigration system is broken. It can't be ignored, it shouldn't be demagogued, it must be fixed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more…

The Sad Truth: It's Not Surprising That Someone Would Try To Kill Trump. Not Surprising At All.
37:30
For 9 years, all he's done is spew hate, spread division, and incite violence. Every day. That's what he's done. Gone after individual people and groups of people in hateful, dangerous ways. So it's not surprising that eventually a sick, crazy person would resort to violence against him. It's wrong. But it's not surprising. Hosted on Acast. See aca…

Two days ago, Donald Trump took a 9/11 denier with him to a 9/11 memorial service. He took with him as his special guest someone who believes 9/11 was an inside job, committed by our own government. And she was Trump's special guest at ground zero. So all we can assume is that Trump is a 9/11 conspiracist as well. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/pri…

We hold Donald Trump to a lower standard than we do other candidates and, really, other human beings.
