Re: Harris Crashes, Burns in First Solo Interview
“Another question never asked of anyone suggesting a gun ban by any name is, ‘How do you intend to get the banned guns out of the hands of criminals?’ I’ve asked that question of all my representatives in both houses of Congress and have never gotten even the courtesy of a politically correct, ‘Thank you for your letter. I’ll keep your views in mind.’” —Michigan
“Harris has been to North Carolina several times in the past few months, and everywhere she holds a ‘rally,’ it is in a sympathetic venue, such as an HBCU. Moreover, each rally is always in a deep-blue location such as Raleigh, Greensboro, Chapel Hill, or Durham. The evidence is clear that she and her handlers have a morbid fear of confronting a situation wherein everything is not under their complete control and everyone is not in lockstep with her platitudes. How can such an insecure person like Kamala Harris govern competently as a president of all United States citizens?” —North Carolina
Re: Harris’s Audacity of Deception Strategy 2.0
“This assessment of the Harris strategy, or Obama’s ‘blank screen’ 2.0, combined with the ‘wrap-up smear’ against Trump, is on the mark — the best analysis I have read on her strategy. This is one reason I support The Patriot Post and why I am glad your team is NOT among the Beltway crowd.” —New York
“Will Harris’s campaign strategy work? Sadly, history has shown that it is likely to work. Biden’s basement campaign strategy worked. Here in PA, it also worked for Fetterman. And way back in 2006, it worked for Casey and will probably work for Casey again this year. Casey does no unscripted appearance. His language skills and intellect make Harris appear to be near genius. The hide-candidate strategy does work if there is enough money behind it.” —Pennsylvania
“Those who are only capable of producing word salads don’t do well in unscripted venues. I thought Biden was embarrassing until I saw SKY Australia and UK News coverage of Harris.” —Oregon
Re: Who’s the Candidate of Change?
“Obama must be overjoyed. No one apparently heard the argument about how if you wanted to understand Obama, you first had to understand Alinksy. And the travesty unfolding is classic Obamalinsky. Two main tenets: accuse your opponents of what you yourself are guilty of doing (check), and if your opponent has popular positions, claim them for your own (check). The Democrat Party is running the playbook that Obama wrote. Obama is the one in charge. Harris is his blank slate.” —Oklahoma
“Gasoline prices in California are currently $4.79 for regular and $5.09 for premium. Hawaii has lower gas prices than California. Natural gas, electricity, and food costs are through the roof. This may be the reason why in my community, the joy vibes of the Harris/Walz campaign seem to be lagging. As I walk my daily rounds, I see no signs supporting Harris/Walz — unlike 2016 and 2020, when Clinton/Kane and Biden/Harris signs dotted the landscape. One can hope this is a positive sign for the coming election.” —California
“I blame daytime talk shows. Many women like to listen to them and get hooked on them. The problem is that the talk-show hosts shouldn’t be making political opinions. Oprah was all in on Barrack Obama, and we see what that did to our Republic. Now we’re seeing the same thing again, only this time it’s Kamala Harris. We already had four years of seeing what she could do … and it wasn’t/isn’t pretty. The media just does what their bosses tell them to. And for some reason, we are supposed to believe them over just looking around and seeing our money fleeing from our pockets under the Democrat policies? Wake up, people! The last four years have been bad! Let’s not repeat it and make it worse!” —Illinois
“I share the concerns of Emmy Griffin. God made man and women as partners and equal, but men are physically stronger. I don’t need to be stronger than a man, but each person should be recognized for his or her own gifts and talents. I have always loved the biblical story of the master giving each servant talents according to his ability. I don’t need to compete with anyone; God made me enough. I do feel for people who struggle, but my first question is: Are they using their talents or burying them in the ground? I agree with some of the voices who have expressed that Harris is weak. She has not earned my vote.” —Wisconsin
Re: Scientific American’s Very Unscientific Endorsement
“Scientific American’s endorsement of Joe Biden in 2020 and now Kamala Harris divulges the extent of the progressive Left’s insidious influence in its pursuit to fundamentally transform our republic into a socialist authoritarian state. The Biden-Harris administration has made great strides in this direction with its ‘Green New Deal’ profligate spending and restrictive energy policies by contributing to inflation and reducing personal freedom for most Americans. Four more years of the same under Harris-Walz will only compound the growing debt and decreased quality of life most Americans are now experiencing. The U.S. electorate must wake up and stop the Democrat transformation agenda in the 2024 election. Before it is too late.” —Florida
Re: KJP: It’s ‘Dangerous’ to Question Us Labeling Trump a ‘Threat’
“A Nazi! A threat to democracy! A dictator! Don’t you remember when Trump was all of these things during his presidency? ME NEITHER! I remember a GREAT economy (especially for blacks and Hispanics) and relative peace for Israel and the world. No inflation, low gas prices, a strong military, and a secure oil reserve. Oh, and an innovative, gutsy, and timely response to a novel virus. The only mistake (which any president might have made) was to put that arrogant little Napoleon in charge of it. Let’s call it a 95% success!” —Pennsylvania
Re: The Harris/Demo Deconstruction and Demolition of Our Constitution
“There was a time not long ago when most people could tell you the difference between various political systems. Along comes the Department of Education and, all of a sudden, these concepts disappear from the curriculum. It is, of course, easier to mislead an ignorant population than an educated one. The changes are cleaver and incremental — just sneaky enough to not be noticed by a population that is being dumbed down by design.” —California
Re: The Left’s Latest ‘Gun Violence’ Cover-Up
“Covering up the connection between race and violence is standard procedure here in Chicago. Just like every other Democrat-controlled urban center, the default blame is on ‘gun violence.’” —Illinois
“Harris/Walz and company might pay attention to the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence. For therein lie the words that will enable us, as free men, to eliminate the direct Marxist/statist threat to the American people and its Constitutional Republic: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it…’” —Massachusetts
“Alexander is the only political analyst out there who clearly and consistently indicts the Democrats’ ‘gun violence’ charade and repeats the fact that only law-abiding citizens abide by laws. Keep it up, because if Harris is elected and Democrats take Congress, our Constitution and its Second Amendment are in danger of being tossed aside.” —Oregon
“I guarantee you that NONE of these urban sociopaths responsible for the black-on-black slaughter are NRA members.” —New York
Re: The Great Biden/Harris Border Cover-Up
“Let’s not forget that Senate Democrats dismissed impeachment charges against Alejandro Mayorkas without even looking at them. They also bear responsibility for the immigration mess because they could have held the Biden-Harris administration accountable for its malfeasance on the border but deliberately refused to do so, risibly claiming there was no crime despite literally millions of counts of aiding and abetting illegal immigration.” —Minnesota
