Lawrence: Trump knows he does not have the mental and cognitive health to debate Harris

After The New York Times published a headline titled “Kamala Harris Surprises Everyone,” MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell says that Vice President Harris isn’t surprising everyone – especially those who have been following California politics. Lawrence says that while Donald Trump is refusing to debate Vice President Harris after breaking his promise to participate in a presidential debate on ABC and is sticking to “the laziest presidential campaign schedule since the invention of jet travel,” Vice President Harris put together “the single strongest group of campaign winners.”

I love Lawrence. He is the best. This is what we need more. News reporters to do is just tell the truth.

I admire your directness. Tell it like it is!🎉

All of Donnie's claims about US status would fly out the window if he faced Kamala Harris in a debate. All those lies and slurs would be exposed in front of the entire nation because both Republicans and Democrats would be watching the debate. Donnie would lose face with the Maga gang watching. Arguing with Harris would be a bad tactical error for Don Trumpet.

Because we all dearly respect President Biden and owe him a deep debt of gratitude. He faithfully and diligently brought us this far. Now, we rally together and carry the torch over the finish line.

The national debt has risen by almost $7.8 trillion during Trump’s time in office. That’s nearly twice as much as what Americans owe on student loans, car loans, credit cards and every other type of debt other than mortgages, combined,

Kamala is like a breath of fresh air, like a ray of sunshine! Please vote Blue!💙💙💙

To paraphrase Edmund Burke - "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men and women to do nothing." Everyone who is eligible to vote, please vote. This insanity has got to end once and for all.
