The pure stupidity is continuing to allow Harris to speak in public, now that's stupid. this coming from the party who was willing to let Brittany Griner rot in a russian prison because she criticized America and knelt for the anthem. Who harp on how un-American some politicians are as a main reason not to vote for them. Who post topic after topic on this site about such things. Who will fight people for stepping on or burning the flag. Patriotic Americans who don't think this is a big deal because it's not their country being insulted. A lot of Puerto Ricans love their island as much as we love the US. In an election where literally every vote counts, this will absolutely make some sort of difference. how much so is yet to be seen. If Kamala had hired a comedian to perform and they talked about how much America sucked, there would be a thread ten pages long on here criticizing the comedian, Kamala, and democrats in general. You guys would be saying "i told you so, she doesn't care about our country." Thats what puerto ricans are saying right now about Trump and republicans.

The folks that would allow a joke to cause them to ignore the border mess, inflation, announcing that we (democrats) plan to raise the corporate tax rate to 28% and the fact that Harris can't think of one thing she would change from what they are doing now aren't voting for Trump, those are folks that would be voting on pure emotion while completely ignoring policy, those aren't Trump voters. It will make zero difference, it's just another gotcha moment to give the liberals hope that this is the one that will take him down. Quote

baddog Posted October 29 Report Posted October 29 I have to wonder why so many Puerto Ricans are here. Maybe they think Puerto Rico is garbage and it’s so much better to live here. Just a thought. Quote

No, the bill is an example of the democrats willingness to go along with infanticide, women's health has nothing to do with it. No context needed, simply read the bill, and notice the democrat's reaction. Quote

It wasn’t a joke to them. It was an insult. The “Trump team” is already saying it should have vetted the speeches. That is an admission of shoddy campaign management. It’s really going to show clearly next Tuesday. Quote

All of a sudden somebody with those tendencies, dictatorial, authoritarian tendencies, would be like ‘OK we’re gonna shut this down, we’re gonna throw these people in jail.’ And they didn’t usually telegraph that. Trump is telling us what he intends to do.” I don’t get your point. There are too many parallels to ignore it. Quote

Trump has made this closer than anyone thought, and he's never changed from saying crazy stuff. If he loses, which he might, this won't have anything to do with it. And yes, it is insulting that you assume a group of folks would put a joke over what's best for the country. If that's what it's come to, we're done anyway. Quote

The joke wasn’t made at your expense. Personally I don’t care if someone jokes about me or white peoples, but plenty of people would be upset. 2. for a lot of Puerto Ricans in the US their identity is just about all they’ve got. They’re not worried about tax rates or abortion, they’re just trying to get by. This could be something that motivates what is largely an apathetic and disinterested voting base to make it out to the polls. PA98 1 Quote
