posted by CenterBHSFanOh, because that was done at a Kamala Harris rally.
Glad to see you condemn comedy concerning Kamala too.
you are taking this personally. if the dems did racist jokes then that also is not good political strategy. My comment still stands that this was not a good political strategy in NY the other day.

I'm not saying that I disagree with you. I'm saying that people are making a mountain from a molehill, based on politics.
Neither the Puerto Rican joke, the white people taco joke or Mexican jokes offended me. But it's hilarious how the media has gotten people outraged only about the Puerto Rican joke, don't you think?

idk, both Nikki Haley and Meghyn Kelly both took said it was a bad look and would cost votes especially with using the C-Word and saying Kamala had a pimp ect...maybe the media has riled up white people, but anecdotally the POC in my circle and social media shpere, did not like it and it had nothing to do with the media.

Agree 100% but also agree with geeblock in that it wasn't the best venue to pop off these comments with the liberal media waiting for any nugget they can pounce on.

Well, I'm fortunate in the fact that I don't let Nikki Haley or Megyn Kelly dictate the terms in what I find funny. I also don't let Stephen A. Smith or Jake Tapper tell me when or where I can find humor.
None of those people can tell me how to dress for work, either.
Again, the fact that people let media lead them into the terms of comedy is more funny to me than Kamala's joke, or the jokes at Trump's rally.
It's stupid shit.
And I don't even care if it hurts Trump's campaign. I kind of hope it does because I've got so many bets on Kamala winning that I will have to think a minute to remember them all.

They would have found something to be offended about anyway. They were already making the comparison to the Nazi rally that happened generations ago. It was expected.
So, what Biden needs to do now is release a statement saying that with his term ending, he's moving into comedy and was testing out some material yesterday and everything will become A-OK and no one will be allowed to be pissy about his remarks, right?
posted by CenterBHSFanI'm not going to argue with him on this when states like Virginia are suing to have non-citizens added back to the voting rolls. We must be able to definitely have citizenship requirements.
Missouri is dealing with a lawsuit right now, being sued by the Biden administration due to the same reason.
I find it interesting how you and others never bring up the counter arguments. Is it ignorance or ideology?
I'm not looking at it any deeper than the fact that he appears to be setting it up for yet another insane blowback if he loses. Maybe the same will happen if Kamala loses. But so far, I've not heard her set the stage for this nonsense like he did in 2020 and like he's doing now.

What did you find funny about saying that he carved watermelons with his black friend? I’m generally curious.

At this stage, and his condition, I'd bet money Biden can't spell "comedy."

They're propagandists, nothing more.

Well, in many ways she is. It's the Biden/Harris administration making moves to let non-citizens vote be applicable. There's no way to talk around it or dismiss it.
If you disagree with whatever smoke that Trump is making, based on the principle of it - one must also disagree with the Dems making smoke around it.
It's just that simple.

Nothing in particular because that joke has been done forever. And because it's old and stale I find it on equal terms with the old "pull my finger" joke.
In other words, *yawn*

There have already been rumblings that if Trump were to win that the Dem's would challenge it or try to overturn it. This has been out there for a few weeks. Hell, in 2016 we saw what Hillary did.

Like I said, maybe Democrats will riot if she loses. I haven’t heard her say anything about the vote being stolen however. Can you cite me a quotation of her espousing the position that non citizens be allowed to vote?

“Rumblings”? What the hell is that really?
Did Hillary insight an attack on the Capitol in 2016? I missed that.

Man, then I'd feel horrible for the mental state of anyone pissed off at what he said, then. Gotta be really sad to get upset over the words of a senile old man who doesn't even know what he's saying!

1.) I doubt Dems will riot. If anything there will be election contestions.
2.) Kamala is the 2nd in command of this country as part of the Biden/Harris administration, who is currently suing states like Virginia because they want non-citizen votes added back into the rolls. That is your quote.
