Following the interview, #DonaldTrump lashed out at the one-time #shockJock, in an expression of #ToxicMasculinity calling him a "#BETAMALE".
#Democratic #Presidential #Nominee #KamalaHarris uses #townhall to show #empathy with #Latino #voters.
She made the #case that her #opponent does not care about the problems of the #middleclass.
Lets also not forget the whole #massdeportation thing, which in the #farright's eyes will also include those who are here #legally.

#Democratic #Presidential #Nominee #KamalaHarris was asked to name a few of #ConvictedFelon #DonaldTrump’s #virtues.
#WannabeDictator #DonaldTrump has absolutely no #virtues as a #person, as a #businessman, and as a #Republican #Candidate. He is a #racist and #whitesupremacist.
— The media should be ashamed for even asking.

Vice President Kamala Harris was asked to name three virtues that her opponent in next month's election, Donald Trump, possesses — but was unable to come up with even one. At the end of her town hall for Spanish-language network Univision in Las Vegas on Thursday, an audience member asked, “Please give me three virtues that Trump has.” Harris criticized the former president's ”us versus them” approach and said she thought he “loves his family” but that she didn't really know him so she couldn't be sure. "I don’t really have much more to offer you,” she concluded.

[Video] #FormerPresident #BarackObama #jokes with #Pittsburgh #crowd after asking if they think #Trump has ever changed a #diaper.
“I shouldn’t say it,” Obama said, clearly alluding to rumors about Trump’s use of #Depends-style #undergarments, which had earned him the #nickname #DiaperDon.

I don't have to tell a lot of you, raising kids is hard. And she wants to make it easier to afford stuff like a crib, or a car seat, or diapers. I remember buying diapers. I remember the first time I went in the store, right after Malia was born, I was like, what? That's how much diapers cost. I remember changing diapers. You think Donald Trump ever changed a diaper? I almost said that, but I decided I shouldn't say it.
What Does #Fascism Look Like? A Brief #Introduction.
During a #FoxNews #townhall in December 2023, #ConvictedFelon #DonaldTrump made a notable comment when asked if he would be a #dictator if reelected. His response was, "No, no, no... other than #DayOne,"

It would be good to be able to recognize fascism when you see it. Sight is our dominant sense (light travels faster than sound) and provides us warning. In addition, because “fascist” is an epithet as well as political term, it must be used carefully. In 1942, a New Hampshire Jehovah’s Witness named Chaplinsky was arrested after calling a Rochester city marshal a “damned fascist.” The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the arrest on the grounds that the expression constituted “fighting words,” excluded from constitutional protection. Recent court decisions in the U.S. have widened speech freedoms, but the word “fascist” remains highly charged, underlining the need for historical and political discretion.
