Harris says Trump is ‘gonna lie’ at presidential debate
Tuesday night will be the first time the vice president and former president face off as opponents ahead of the November election.
It's a fact that he lies his ass off every chance he gets. That's not news. And Kamala knowing that he lies is not news either.
Yeah, but she's calling that shit out.
And it gives the media a chance to print "he lies" since it's someone else saying it, and they're afraid of getting in trouble.
And it entices Donald to say something stupid like, "I don't lie, she lies. Everyone knows it" since that's what he's devolved into. Anyway then the paper can print that too.
In a world of compulsive liars the occasional truth speaker is king the best presidential candidate.
Lying is as natural for him as pounding cheeseburgers and groping underaged girls so no surprises there.
That's the free space on the bingo card.
Fucking Daily Beast:
"I think he’s gonna lie."
This discussion happened on a different post of the same interview but her statement is a lot better than the Daily Beast's summary... she left wiggle room and laid on the sarcasm instead of making a definitive statement.
Yeah the DB headline is scummy for sure. That editor 1000% did that shit intentionally.
Hot take
Up next: hydrogen and oxygen will both be present at debate. Will they put their differences aside?
But first let’s introduce our moderator, Open Flame.
She had a Trump stand-in for her practice debates. IDK who she got, but unless he was a bellicose asshole it won't be all that useful.
I'm pretty sure they practiced with a few different stand-ins to really simulate the Donald Trump experience.
One was a baby crying for 2 hours.
Another was a rambling coke head they found wandering in the street.
Another is an old man with dementia.
And another was a 10-year old kid who just goes, "Nu uh you"
Best prep would be to debate an angry toddler arguing why cookies should be allowed before dinner
She should just hold her hand up while he's speaking and count the lies. Then call them out one at a time.
I should have to be a absolute master to be able to remember all his lies in real time though too so his lies have lies have lies. Shit
I don't think she has enough fingers unless she is counting in binary, even for two minutes at a time.
She should smuggle a little whiteboard and a dry erase marker onto the stage. And strike a line on the whiteboard each time he lies. If Trump can use a marker during an official presidential event to clumsily (and incompetently) predict where a hurricane will hit, she should be able to use in during a debate.
Sure the board would be full within a few minutes. But at least this way she'd have a better way of showing the volume of lies he spews.
Plus it would drive him fucking insane, which would be hilarious to watch.
Hands are simply not equipped to count that hard.
next she'll say water is wet, and start that debate all over again.
That's about all he does. Only I think he's not lying, he just has early onset dementia and actually believes some of the nonsense he says.
He totally knows he's lying. It's just justified in his narcissistic mind as what you do to get your way. If he's dementing, and I think he is, it's on top of that life-long sense of entitlement to get his way via whatever means necessary.
I think he does some intentional lying, and he says false shit believing that it is true, but most of what he says is bullshit. And I mean bullshit in the sense that he neither knows nor cares whether it's a true statement, he just knows that it's helpful to his goals in the moment, therefore he says it. When he talks about over 20M illegal immigrants entering this year, it's impossible for him to know a number on that since it obviously isn't tracked, but I'm sure that it doesn't matter what the actual number is at all. He just pulls out a big number to scare racist people into getting upset enough to come and vote for the guy who says that it needs to stop, which is him. He doesn't care that it's not an accurate number, and because he doesn't know the real number for sure then it's impossible to prove that he knows that it's not actually that number and therefore not a certain lie per se. He gets all of the benefit of lying without any of the attached accountability. He bullshits.
How early? He’s been doing this his whole life, including the word salad.
Not the salad dementia part
Harris, that was the easy guess. Good luck, BTW.
Harris says bear is "gonna shit in the woods"
She better give him the "I'M SPEAKING"
Something something shocked Pikachu something
Yeah no shit, but are we gonna pretend that other politicians don't lie?
Sure, but Trump is a totally different tier of liar.
Most politicians "lie" through omission. They'll tell the truth, just not the parts that make them or their friends look bad. That and overly ambitious campaign promises...but I generally look past that because they should really be called "campaign goals", and the "stretch goals" should be easily identified by anyone with two braincells to rub together.
Trump just puts out straight up objective falsehoods and rattles them off with a straight face.
No but you'll pretend they are comparable to Trump
What is this 2016? Are we still defending Trump with whataboutisms?
She's going to do a lot of talking, but like we found out in her last debate with Biden she admitted that everything she said was bullshit because "It was a debate!" Its all political theater
