(24,707 posts)then WTH is her problem? Does she really think that there is something about Harris that might be even worse than a felon, rapist, insurrectionist?
I don't get these people who know what scum Trump is but say that they still need to know Harris better. Seems to me that the contrast between the candidates is so strong that the ones who say they don't really know Harris are just saying that as an excuse to vote for Trump. Or, they are Trumpists through and through and are trying to sow seeds of doubt about Harris to people who support Harris/Walz.
I'd probably have said to her, "Well you've got two choices, Trump the criminal who wants to be dictator and Harris, the prosecutor, Senator, and VP. Would you really choose the criminal, dictator wannabe?"
If she answered that she might choose a 3rd party candidate, or just not vote, I'd tell her that not voting, or choosing 3rd party would be throwing the election in Trump's favor.
This woman could find out Harris' background easily enough by looking her up on Wikipedia or Googling her name along with the word "biography."
