7 takeaways from Kamala Harris's town hall

(Yahoo) Vice President Kamala Harris held a town hall on CNN Wednesday in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania, where she went after former President Donald Trump and laid out her vision for how she would govern if elected.

Hosted by Anderson Cooper, the town hall, a stand-in event for what would have been the second presidential debate of the 2024 campaign had Trump not declined to participate, featured questions from undecided voters and offered some of the least scripted exchanges of the campaign.

It came with just 13 days remaining until Election Day, and with millions of early votes already cast, in a race that most polls show could go either way.

The October Surprise is TSF's ties to Nazis, TSF's ties to dictators, It is not just about General Kelly it is about all of the other high ranking officials who worked for TSF who are publicly claiming that TSF is unfit for office.

This is the narrative that needs to stay in the news until election day. Can Democrats do that?

Honestly, I’ve met a lot of undecided voters who are like Germans in the 1920s/1930s, they’d support another Hitler if it meant a job and a house. The better argument is Harris will get you a job and a house and Trump will make it harder.

She said she supported the bipartisan immigration plan which did include more wall money. That was a part of the negotiated deal. It gave Repubs some cover. Its called politics and deal making.
