    I’m willing to bet the OP didn’t know that cabinet members have to be very careful with their press questions responses as it relates to campaigns and the separation of official duties and support for their candidate.

    Just more disingenuousness from those who are faux raged regarding one denial on camera versus 8-13 a day, every day for four FUCKING YEARS.

    If people were more engaged in the process, we wouldn't need to treat it like a pep rally.

    we have probably the same (low) engagement in Canada. 6 weeks from call of election to voting day.

    Were you aware that the BLS revises job number all the time? 
    Yes. It is all a game to deceive the public.  Both sides do it. They change how inflation is calculated, They change the definition of recession. We are lied to every single day by our government. Like I said, both parties. The media will challenge when the Republicans do it, stay silent when the Dems do it. We are screwed...until we stop accepting the lies and corruption, by both sides.
    No, it’s not about deception. The BLS makes a prediction and then later reviews the numbers with data further down the line. It gets adjusted downward or upward. Not everything is about being victimized. 

    And the definition of recession didn’t change and there’s plenty of fact checking happening with the dnc in mainstream news outlets.

    I read this the other day and found it despicable. You don't hear a lot about it though. If the GOP had clear messaging maybe they could be hammering dems about suppressing voter rights, but they have their own reasons too. Benefits them both.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I did think it was funny that Clinton pronounced Harris as CAM-A-LUH...like really? No one briefed you on this?
    We only watched maybe 10 minutes of it last night, and this was part of it. My wife and I laughed. Mostly because of the irony, if you said that a 4 years ago it was a big deal and you were racist. Don't know how he's managed to avoid learning her name in the last 4 years, but that's impressive.

    And only you know the truth, from your own research, right?

    I’ll add a third question that you won’t answer:

    1. Did POOTWH legitimately lose the 2020 election?

    2. In what year do you figure you’ll be replaced? And,

    3. Was 9/11 an inside job?

    Gosh. Now knowing this, I cannot believe Biden has waited so long to lower the inflation rate and drop key interest rates.

    If only he did it a year ago his approval numbers would have been so much higher and he'd likely be leading the race instead of having to drop out in July.

    How is this bad? She said she hadn’t seen the BLS report and she avoided answering the question. So what. Did she make shit up? Lie? Deceive the public in some way? I doubt anyone who didn’t get the meme or tweet in their faceturd feed or inbox would have even known about it.

    Wow, that was so, so bad! Maybe Gym Jordan should investigate her comments and open an impeachment investigation.

    I sat in on the deadheads for Kamala zoom last week and added my $25 to the pot - there were a few people you'd think would have known by now, including people of color, who were pronouncing it incorrectly. 

    I think some just have it in their head how it's pronounced and haven't caught up with how it should be pronounced, but it's definitely not "Kamabla".

    Don’t you have some mile long copy and paste drivel article, that no one ever reads,  from some radical blog,  that shows how Blue states actually have no taxes at all? 
    i don't know why you constantly have to attack other posters for things they post. it's like you post just to get a reaction.

    TBH, I've been a fan of the comic character Ms. Marvel (both the book by G Willow Wilson and the D+ show). Her name is Kamala Kahn. pronounced KaMal-la. So sometimes absent mindedly, I will say that.

    Sorry, this is kinda dumb. No ones gonna think you're racist for mispronouncing someones name. Clinton is a dope for not saying it correctly at this point, but its not racist. You KEEP doing it, you may get some side eye.

    TBH, I've been a fan of the comic character Ms. Marvel (both the book by G Willow Wilson and the D+ show). Her name is Kamala Kahn. pronounced KaMal-la. So sometimes absent mindedly, I will say that.

    I did think it was funny that Clinton pronounced Harris as CAM-A-LUH...like really? No one briefed you on this?
     if you said that a 4 years ago it was a big deal and you were racist. 
    Sorry, this is kinda dumb. No ones gonna think you're racist for mispronouncing someones name. Clinton is a dope for not saying it correctly at this point, but its not racist. You KEEP doing it, you may get some side eye.
    You don't remember anyone on the right being corrected every time it was mispronounced 4 years ago? Back when she was relatively new in the spotlight and many people legitimately didn't know how to pronounce it.

    I think there is a big difference between not knowing how to pronounce it and it purposely mispronouncing it.

    actually, that did happen. Early in Kamala's tenure, Republicans pronouncing her name like the WWF wrestler from the 80's WERE in fact being labeled racist for it.

    it seems odd that half the country is so outraged over pronouns when they don't even realize WE ALL have pronouns, even if you don't put them in your email signature.
