Harris previews her Trump debate plan: 'I think he's gonna lie'

The #1 thing to note is that Trump didn't win the last debate, Biden lost it. There's a difference.

Trump's performance was inchoate, but Biden looked like a lost little boy and that's something the leader of the free world can't recover from.

Harris is not going to have that problem.

Yeah, I don't see Harris ending an answer with "we finally beat Medicare."
I think I had an aneurysm that night.
- Me too, and that was just from my friend group sending despairing texts to each other because half of them were watching it. I couldn’t bring myself to watch it myself because I was afraid of how Biden would do, and my concerns were fully justified.
  So glad the DNC was able to pull out of that tailspin.
Debates mean nothing in presidential elections. Several losers have won and winners have lost in the past.
- And some led to candidates dropping out.

“I think he’s gonna lie…”

Does ~~a bear shit in the woods~~ Trump shit in his pants?

“Does the pope protect pedophiles?”
Does ~~a bear shit in the woods~~ Trump shit in his ~~pants~~ adult nappy?

I'd say "he's gonna lie" is the free space on the bingo but there's a lot of competition...

Free Space is obviously
<snif>
- The Trump bingo card is actually a 3d block with a six sided free spot.
- I'm taking the outlier. Fly 2: trumpy boogaloo

She needs to hammer him on his rich tax cuts and the state he left the economy in. There way too many people who believe everything was better under Trump and only care about money and earning.

I really want "Under your administration, people didn't know where their next roll of toilet paper was coming from..."
- That is what needs to be repeated. Every conservative has forgotten that.

First thing out of her mouth should be "doesn't Donnie look great in that diaper?"

She should also laugh at his gish gallop, and mock him. "Old loser can't remember anything so he just lies and plays his invisible accordion"
I'd use the word "depends" a lot.
Just wrinkle her nose and ask what is that smell?
Nah. Plenty of decent incontinent people out there.

Debate hype is at 11.

Vice President Harris on debating Trump: "He plays from this really old and tired playbook, right? There's no floor for him in terms of how low he will go and we should be prepared for that. We should be prepared for the fact that he is not burdened by telling the truth, and we should be prepared for the fact that he is probably going to speak a lot of untruth." Via The Rickey Smiley Morning Show

I preview my plan for all of next year: "I think the sun will rise at least once."

G A S P

I believe it.

YA THINK?!

Telling the truth isn't even how you win a debate. Seems like the MSM is setting the bar for Kamala Harris pretty low here.

I think he's going to lie

You think he's going to lie? Anyone who doesn't know with 100% certainty at this point that he's going to lie has either been living under a rock for the better part of a decade now, or they're effectively braindead. Trump lying every time he opens his mouth is approaching death and taxes levels of certainty.

- It’s so obvious
- I'm amazed this jpg isn't more common.
I don't disagree but her saying "I know he's going to lie" would be really dumb. Saying "I think he's going to lie" leaves open the possibility that he will overcome his lying nature (which would be a win for Harris anyways) while also reinforcing how predictable is.
It's a good statement as-is and anything stronger would have been unproductive.
- I disagree, this smacks of the same limp wristed response that Democrats have been using for decades now. That's how we ended up in this situation in the first place. It's beyond time everyone stop pretending the emperor has clothes and actually acknowledge it. Trump lies. He always lies. I don't think he's ever given a single speech where he hasn't lied at least once. There's a reason his lawyers will move heaven and earth to prevent him from testifying in front of a jury in all his legal cases, and it's because doing so would be an absolutely guaranteed way to catch a perjury charge.
  So yes, she should have just said "Trump will be repeating lies during the debate, so we're preparing to counter them. At this point everyone knows all his favorite lies, so we've got a pretty good idea of what we need to be prepared for."
  That would have been an actually good statement that clearly sets expectations and shows an understanding of the situation. Soft peddling anything with Trump and the MAGA crowd just wastes time and makes you look indecisive.
Are you mansplaining political reality to a presidential candidate? You should make shirts with that guy who told pope to go read the bible.
- No I'm criticizing a weak wishy-washy statement of the kind that has been made repeatedly for decades now and allowed Trump to happen in the first place. We need to stop treating Trump like an adult and start treating him like the petulant child he is. He deserves absolutely no respect. People need to stop being afraid to speak the truth about him.
  There are only two kinds of people in Trump's orbit, morons, and grifters trying to exploit the morons, with Trump occupying the point in the Venn diagram exactly in between the two.
