The first bit of nonsense, debate-wise, came during Tuesday night’s showdown between Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump when Harris attacked Trump on a topic that the fact checkers debunked, which was President Trump’s supposed comments claiming that there were ‘very fine people on both sides’ of the tragedy that unfolded in Charlottesville. Just when the audience though it couldn’t make an appearance, Harris brought it back.
This was an obvious attempt at reviving a narrative that has been repeatedly debunked. The ‘very fine people’ lie has been called outright false by even the fact-checking source Snopes, which is not known for being favorable to President Trump.
The tragic events of Charlottesville occurred on August 11 and 12, 2017 as part of the Unite the Right rally. This rally, which initially began as a protest against the removal of the Robert E. Lee statue from a park, turned violent as neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other far-right groups clashed with leftist counter-protesters. During this chaos, one self-identified white supremacist rammed his car into a crowd of people, killing one and injuring at least 19.
Despite the facts, Harris claimed during the debate that Trump had said, “There were fine people on each side.” This is a blatant misrepresentation of what Trump actually said during a media briefing after the tragedy. In fact, even Snopes acknowledged that this statement was false.
During the media briefing, Trump specifically referred to those who were at the rally to protest the removal of the statue, saying, “You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name. George Washington was a slave owner.” He also condemned the neo-Nazis and white supremacists, saying they “should be condemned totally.”

But despite the clear evidence, Harris continued to push this false narrative on the debate stage. She even attempted to label everything that her opponent said as a lie, without providing any counter-evidence. This was a desperate and feeble attempt to discredit Trump and distract from the real issues at hand.
It’s been over seven years since the tragic events in Charlottesville, yet Harris is still dragging out this “very fine people” lie. This just goes to show how far she is willing to go to smear Trump and his supporters. It’s time for Harris to stop spreading misinformation and start focusing on the real problems facing our country. As for the debate, Trump remained calm and collected, while Harris resorted to desperate tactics. In the end, it was clear who the real winner was.

We have seen differing versions of Harris during her political career. Now she is presenting us with a new version of herself in order to get elected. If she were to be elected, which version would she become? One thing that has remained consistent is her marxist values. She has also demonstrated autocratic tendencies.
If this **tch gets elected as our next President, we can kiss our future as a nation, goodbye. How in God’s Name has she got this far with absolutely ZERO votes? Every time she opens her mouth, the only things that come out ae lies and innuendos. Please Lord God, deliver us from this oppressive beast.
Once elected I believe she would rule as a Commie. Kamala is trying to make u think she has changed her position on all the policies the people want, just to get elected then would go back to her Socialist Commie ways.
Commie can’t stand on her own, she needs 2 attack dogs to help her bait Trump so she can deflect from her no plan policies. She was free to say anything knowing her guard dogs wouldn’t turn on her. She only says the same 2 things- 25 grand for homebuyers & 6 grand for child tax credit. After allowing 20 million illegals in can we really believe she wants to help the middle class? Plz! No 2nd debate unless it’s on Republican terms, these Dems won’t let her policies be known bc they know Commie is a Marxist.
The only thing Charlottsville taught me is don’t stand in the road when a car is coming, you might get killed. F that lying beyotch.
Harris is offering us a new playbook, one that is quite different from anything she has said or done in the past. She wants us to buy the new and improved kamala Harris. But is the product any different of just the packaging? She assured us that her values have not changed. Those same marxist values she formalized in her youth? And what of her objectives to change American society? Will the real Kamala harris please step forward?
Trump was asked by debate moderator David Muir about the events of January 6, 2021, where a Trump supporter was killed by Capitol Police. Muir asked “Is there anything you regret about what you did on that day?”
How is that question a debatable one? There were many questions in the so-called “debate” such as this. That is a gotcha question that was meant to put Trump on the spot. Another was about the black vs. Indian question posed to Trump. I could go on. A true debate is one where all the questions could and should be asked of both contestants/opponents. Such as “The economy is a big issue with the public. If elected, what will you do to address this issue?” Another would be “The Ukraine/Russia war is costing us a very large amount of money. What will you do to help end this war?” This was not a “debate”, it was a question-and-answer session. I only hope that the debate between Vance and Walz goes better.
What we need now is for “Toto” to pull that “curtain in the corner.” Does anybody know where we can find ToTo?
