The most neglected problem facing the USA is the debt of $35,000,000,000,000! And I write out all the zeros to emphasize the staggering magnitude of that amount of money. And it is growing by about $1T every 3-4 months. Harris will only grow the debt faster than Biden. Unfortunately, IMO so will Trump. Politicians love to spend our money.

Our government has a spending problem. It seems the money doesn't make it to the right places. Currently a lot is being spend on handouts for Illegal immigrants.

I am voting for Kamala Harris because she will maintain America's international commitments and ensure the United States will remain a credible counterweight to Communist China.

Your first half of the answer was acceptable, but the second half is delusional. No one who understands national security and international relations believes Kamala will stand up to Xi.

I welcome any statement she has made or policy stance that indicates weakness vis a vis China on her part. All indications are that she will continue strengthening the Quad and our alliances in the Pacific to keep China contained.

I’d welcome any, I mean any, kind of statement she has made or would make on anything serious enough not to laugh and giggle the whole time through.

She wouldn’t know how to handle crossing the street by herself lest dealing with an international crisis. And after her pick of a running mate, I’m not so certain she could pick a competent cabinet, not that they wouldn’t probably quit like the 95% of her staffs have.

Yeah, she’s a real winner. Keep supporting her, it’s your prerogative, but you’ll be sorry - and more than likely the first to whine about it too when it bites you in the ass.

I leave the whining to 45, he's quite proficient with that.

Whining about lawfare, illegal searches, reduced USSS protection, near assassination with minimal investigation and reporting, legal battles attempting to remove 45 from ballots, etc. Is it whining or calling out the DNC and current admin on their underhanded questionable tactics?
