Now, I ask you....isn’t that a slap in the face to the 40% of his constituents who voted for Trump? He basically said we voted for racism. THAT is the type of hate and intolerance that comes from the left, even from an elected official to his constituents.
Thank you

She thinks those who voted against Biden did so because they don't want unity, they are indecent, and they are ultimately dishonest people.

She says those who voted against Joe, did so to destroy the "soul" of America: "And when our very democracy was on the ballot in this election, with the very soul of America at stake, and the world watching, you ushered in a new day for America.

But she asks those evil people to believe: "No matter who you voted for...waking up every day thinking of you and your family.... To unite our country and heal the soul of our nation."

She also throws in a few lies like this whopper to claim unearned identity politics points for the big guy: "And what a testament it is to Joe’s character that he had the audacity to break one of the most substantial barriers that exists in our country and select a woman as his vice president". Fact check = False. The barrier was long gone...

But there was the odd snippet of truth: "a man (Biden) with a big heart who loves with abandon". Fact check = True!!!
Kamala labels 70mil Americans: Devisive Indecent Liars!

SHE. DID. NO. SUCH. THING.


Talk about speech-writing. Or rewriting in this case.

This thread is an angry and mean spirited rewrite. It is based on what the OP claims Kamala Harris meant as opposed to what she spoke--- apparently with the purpose of causing problems, rabble rousing and manufacturing more hate and dissension in our nation. Who and why would someone interpret and twist Vice President-elect Harris' hopeful words in such a malicious and mendacious manner?

This is preposterous made up opinion poop to deliberately and malevolently influence others into believing who they should blame for whatever ails them. Geez, will the slander and lies, of the fearful few who only have a desire to keep America divided, ever stop?

Congratulations to our United States of America! Congratulations to President elect Joe Biden and Vice President elect Kamala Harris! May they always be full of the grace, the wisdom and the hope they exhibited last night in their inspirational acceptance speeches.

She is a venomous snake that will bite at first opportunity to seize power. I would not trust her one bit to do the correct thing. There is a long and clear history of her being a political chameleon willing to do or say anything to advance herself.


IMO she is the swamp creature that Trump always talked of draining. She was chosen as VP not because she ran a great campaign or aligned well with JB but because she ticked the most amount of intersectional boxes.



The politics of the left today are about woke intersectionality and the more boxes you check the more culture cred you get.


Be very fearful of this snake and what she will look to impose in the coming years; mark my words!

She said--

"You chose hope and unity, decency, science and, yes, truth."--referring to concepts embraced by Biden, however flawed he may be.

. . . as opposed to Trump, who was divisive, not decent, anti-science, and a liar.

Do you believe Trump is unifying, decent, pro-science, and honest?
