It sets them up for 2024. That makes it extremely important.

He is a racist pure and simple.

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has named Senator Kamala Harris as his running mate. She is the first black woman to serve in the role.

Thory !

Do I really need to spell it out to you?

Of course not, but the winning candidate is set up if they have even a modicum of talent.

I am not referring to Mike Pence here.

News outlets reporting that he has privately said he would only serve one term.

Make of that what you will.

I think it's a ploy to address those who think he's too old, doddery, senile to be president for the long term. It also appeals to the centre right who don't like Dems but hate Trump more.

Because he is a racist, a proven racist at that and by selecting Harris he can say see I'm not racist look who I picked. Disgusting.

Oh look he needed a script to talk to her, now that's poor, but points to and supports his lack of memory or that he's suffering from senile dementia.

Have you got proof that he selected Kamala Harris for that apparent reason; not simply because of her undoubted ability? After all, she's quite a sharp cookie.

Or is it just another of your unfounded allegations?

I can prove he's a racist and has been proven once again during this campaign. He has selected her for the reason I state of that it is quite clear.

Yeah, I know his 'previous'; I can Google that myself.

To reiterate, what I actually asked was:

You replied "he has selected her for the reason I state of that it is quite clear".

There's quite a difference between actual evidence proving that something is quite clear; as opposed to your statement. Without it, what you have said, has the depth of a grain of sand.

A lot of lefties think they've already won, judging from comments read online. Didnt realise he was 78!

Personally I think his choice is very important. Should Biden win, which I doubt, the the VP will become President when Biden fails to complete the full term. I can’t see him doing the full term, he struggles to put a sentence together now. A fading politician. The job will be too much for him. The VP role will increase in importance.

You're wasting your time trying to get evidence from Thor. Everything he says should be taken with a grain of sodium chlorite.

Shower Heads .

You believe he had any say in who his running mate would be! Really! Harris was selected by the suits behind the scenes. We loosely say his choice, but looking into it more I don’t think it was.

"Do you regret all your lying?" White House reporter's question startles Trump:

Classic!

As you didn't reply, I assume that the answer is 'No' then, oh great orange one?

What amazes me, well it don't really is that trump sorts out a peace deal one the world needs and wants and the left wingers on this board remain more or less silent. Unbelievable Jeff.

I'm not being silent. Trump is still one hell of a lying, self-centred, ignorant, racist turd.

How exactly did he sort out this peace deal btw. What was his part in this? Please explain.

Sorry we've been at YouTube School. Did you know that everyone is an elite paedophile?! Not Trump, who has countless accusations against him, but ALL the others.

But really, always happy for good news! I would, if I were you, exercise a little caution as to the motives. You wouldn't want to be a sheep like the rest of us so I'd maybe delve a little deeper into the 'why' behind Trump's involvement too. But if it keeps people safe and is fair and just in the long term happy days, I doubt you'll find left wingers disagreeing with that.

Though regarding left wing lack of support, I'd suggest Netanyahu saying this probably doesn't help that support;
"There is no change in my plan to apply our sovereignty to Judea and Samaria [West Bank] in full co-ordination with the US. I'm committed to it. That hasn't changed. I remind you that I was the one who put the issue of sovereignty over Judea and Samaria on the table. This issue remains on the table".

Trump is closing the gap in the polls the gap is now 7 which has reduced from 12. The game is on.
