What's the Trump obsession done for the right? To me it looks like its turned the Republican party into a nest of nut jobs and overt white supremacists. That's good for the country.
 
I have to admit when I imagined the first woman president, Kamala was definitely not what I envisioned, but I'll take it if it keeps Trump the Rapist off the big stage. Let him keep holding his rallies of 10's upon 10's of people.

I will say the more she works the speech circuit the more comfortable she is beginning to look. I am not going to say full-on Presidential yet, but getting there. Who knows, maybe after 2-3 years in the big chair she will seem like a president.

I just really hope that either, 1) she surprises everyone, and pulls of a strong first 4 years the likes of which we haven't seen since Reagan in terms of being presidential or 2) in 4 years we actually get 2 candidates that represent the people and give us a chance at a presidential race worthy of actually choosing a president and not just the best of the worst we can get on the stage. Even if #1 happens, I still hope the repubs can field a candidate that can actually stand toe-to-toe with her in terms of policy and demeanor.

Man I miss the days when we discussed policy at least as much as we tore down the candidates themselves. Never thought I would look back on the Bush-Kerry ticket with a feeling of nostalgia. My God we are in deep ****.

I feel putting Trump supporting brainless quacks on ignore is a right thing to do. It at least keeps me from seeing all the manure they are posting.

Wouldn't want any truth getting in the way of your stupid anti-Trump cult.

Especially when they are proven trolls. That is their only reason for being here, get a rise out of people. No attempt at legitimate discourse, always disruptive and occasionally Al forgets he is on the Al account and devolves into PJF-levels of ad hominem. Gotta remember to switch your accounts there Al. Don't want to be too obvious.

President Joe Biden did not assign her the job title of “border czar” or the responsibility of overseeing the enforcement policies at the U.S.-Mexico border, as the Trump campaign suggested Tuesday in its first ad against her. But she did have a prominent role in trying to ensure that a record surge of global migration did not become worse.

After the number of migrants crossing the southern border hit record levels at times during the administration’s first three years, crossings have now dropped to their lowest levels since Biden and Harris took office.

Early in the administration, Harris was given a role that came to be defined as a combination of chief fundraiser and conduit between business leaders and the economies of Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. Her attempt to convince companies across the world to invest in Central America and create jobs for would-be migrants had some success, according to immigration experts and current and former government officials.

Rather than develop ways to turn away or detain migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border, Harris’ work included encouraging a Japan-based auto parts plant, Yazaki, to build a $10 million plant in a western Guatemalan region that sees high rates of migration and pushing a Swiss-based coffee company to increase procurement by more than $100 million in a region rich with coffee beans.

She convened leaders from dozens of companies, helping to raise more than $5 billion in private and public funds.

Jonathan Fantini-Porter, the chief executive of the Partnership for Central America, the public-private partnership Harris helped lead, said the money had led to 30,000 jobs, with another 60,000 on the way as factories are constructed.

She also pushed Central American governments to work with the United States to create a program where refugees could apply for protection within the region.

The Northern Triangle countries accounted for roughly 500,700 of the 2.5 million crossings at the southwest border in the fiscal year of 2023, a 36% drop from the 2021 fiscal year, according to the Wilson Center.

After helping fuel violent civil wars in the 1980s, the United States retreated before seeing peace reforms through, a move that partly set the stage for the corrupt politicians and criminal groups who would exploit the countries’ lack of economic opportunities, overwhelm regional police forces and eventually spur hundreds of thousands of migrants — many of them unaccompanied minors — to make the dangerous trek north.

Former President Donald Trump froze the foreign aid programs in 2019.

When Biden gave Harris the assignment to look into the root causes of migration, some of her allies worried she had been handed a no-win portfolio. During her first trip to Guatemala City in 2021, she faced outrage from progressives and immigration advocates when she delivered a blunt message to migrants: “Do not come.”

Ricardo Zúñiga, who served as State Department’s special envoy for Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador, said Harris was essential in bringing together Latin American and American business leaders to drive investment in Central America.

Less than a week into her role, Zúñiga recalled, Harris sat with members of the national security team and economists from the Treasury Department. After a round of introductions, she quickly got into probing the personalities of the Latin American leaders with whom she would be interacting.

Zúñiga said he later watched her put the information she had collected into practice.

In Guatemala, she took a much more direct approach to President Alejandro Giammattei. She warned him last year about attempts to disrupt the handover of power of the newly elected president, Bernardo Arévalo, while also pushing him to help form programs that migrants could use to apply for refuge in the United States closer to their home countries.

“She was curious and asked many questions,” Zúñiga said. “She very quickly realized that we weren’t going to solve 500 years of problematic history in a single term.”

Nolte: Desperate Media Seek to Erase Kamala Harris Failed ‘Border Czar’ Role

The very same media that championed Kamala Harris as America’s new “border czar” in April of 2021, is now claiming she wasn't.
www.breitbart.com www.breitbart.com

"The corporate media told us Harris was our new border czar.

Now this same media want to gaslight us by saying she wasn’t our border czar and no one but right-wingnuts ever said she was.

The media (and Biden!) told us Harris was put in charge of stemming the flow of illegal immigration at our southern border.

Now this same media want to gaslight us by telling us her only job was to address the “root causes” of illegal immigration and that no one but right-wingnuts ever said anything different."

No there is a person behind it for sure. But why treat them as such when they are not going to engage in good faith. They are a troll looking to piss people off. Maybe he's an alt of one of our current posters. Maybe he's an old poster looking to settle scores or some such ********. He might have a "regular" account and just use these accounts to **** around with people. Either way in this iteration he isn't worth anyone's time.

Hell, it might not be a he. Probably a eunuch.
