Most Americans are not on either extreme, and most Americans aren't going out to protest anything because they have jobs and families to take care of. Most people are in the middle. They just want normalcy, happiness, and to be left alone.

....America is blessed; all we need is to listen to the TRUTH💯💯💯💯

Let joy and love win not hate and division. 💙

Thank you mayor for voting Harris to save America 💯❤️🇺🇸👍

My favorite part of Kamala’s speeches is when she claims a 1.6% profit margin is price gouging.

[rdRangerBN]

Yes ! To say thank you, Let’s all list our favorite things that Kamala Harris has done for us! Who wants to start?
Anyone????

The nature of man/woman is easy, the ones who progress and take in what their heart say and tell them to do will be happy, the ones who lie about themselves and their neighbors for dubious reasons will not be happy. This Republican man will always be happy. I know many Republicans good/uneducated.

Will Kamala stop drinking on the job if elected?

[letsgorandall]

It sounded like a funeral last night.

imagine having 3 sons, and needing to share the at the last days, giving each 1 million dollars and checking back next year, with no third party, and finding it 1 with 2 million, the other with 1 million, and the last with nothing, so imagine giving back a second hand out, how will you share again? the scenario is like the politics, who will you vote giving money/power, to the one with 2 million(rich/speculator), the one with 1 million(middle class) or the one with nothing (poor), so supporting the middle class is the way to go, otherwise will disappear, pampering the rich and helping the poor, only rich and poor will be left

[mikenorris]

If you are picking country over party quit voteing for more inflation and open borders

[variety-dcomedien]

This is Amazing - Common Sense on Common Grounds is really NOT Common however to see & hear some Republican Leaders understand the what their True Purpose of their own Party is for 📚

[fredgonzalez]

Yeah, We Do Great things like Imposed Soviet- Era Price Control On Americans.

[Rugbyfan]

I hope the republicans can rebuild their party in the future. It's important for democracy to have a robust republican party with leadership that actually represents values like integrity and common decency. I didn't agree with G.H Bush but he had standards of character that fit the office and it's notable he does not endorse Trump. Trump diminishes America.

[jkang]

Not to brag, but I have won just as many primaries as Kamala Harris

[discreetanonymus]

'Country over Party' is actually 'Country over trump', that should be obvious.

[joshkorte]

There are Republicans for Harris, but there are no Democrats for Trump. Curious? 🤔

[rickvolcano]

What about the violent mob outside surrounding the convention center?

[lgsprings]

Issues that are in the middle is being able to feed our families and feel safe. Harris has given us the opposite. Actions speak far louder than words.
