[POLL] 2020 U.S. Presidential Election

Why did Kamala Harris suddenly change the pronunciation of her first name?
It used to be "KAmala". Now it is "KaMAla". Who does that to his/her first name? Is it a campaign strategy?
EDIT: see below

It is, and always has been, pronounced: comma-la.

Voting for Biden. Hate Biden but Donald should never have been voted in in the first place.
Still surprises me how many people support such blatant corruption and incompetence. Has American Education really sunk so low? Why are my fellow countrymen so easily manipulatable?

I stand corrected. I wrongly assumed the media would care to check. It has always been the first syllable.

Most media outlets are checking, pronouncing it correctly, and covering how to pronounce it correctly. Faux news like Fox News are an exception, where asshats like Tucker Carlson are corrected on-air and don't even pretend to care.

 

[UltraDolphinRevolution]

I am not watching Fox news. I heard the wrong pronunciation at many many other channels.

Just watching the Trump speech. One detail stood out.

Trump is using the demands of leftwing protesters (defund the police, give money to communities) to conjure up fear in voters that - and this is a quote - "Biden will defund the police" this will lead to chaos and destruction in america.

Such a nice example, how a completely ludicrous demand can backfire in intent, and be used against its original purpose, to accuse the presidential candidate of the same party those protesters are closest to politically.

The ending of each respective convention says all.

RNC - Large firework display with live music amidst a large crowd at the White House.
DNC - A library with balloons.

You can tell who has more American spirit.

From what I saw:

RNC - Fear mongering, misinformation, and sucking on Trumps.. ego.
DNC - talks about unity and rational discussion. how to move forward

I'd say unity is more "American spirit" (UNITED states of America?)

PS: it was wild seeing all the Rep's that only 4 years ago were saying Trump was a "know nothing windbag" have gone to praising him because he is the Republican Party now. I don't see how they are going to survive after Trump is gone, whenever that is.

Fear mongering and misinformation sounds more like the left's response to the Coronavirus and the police than the right's.

did you see any of the RNC speeches? It was all about how USA will fail if Biden is elected. "They’ll disarm you, empty the prisons, lock you in your home, and invite MS-13 to live next door" is an actual quote. None of that is actually true.

Meanwhile Trump actually pardons a bank robber.

Not to mention it's a crime to use the White house for campaign purposes. It's called the Hatch Act

You've been talking about repealing the second amendment, defunding the police, and shutting down the country.

JUST CURIOUS, when Russian "presumably interferes" about USA's election was considered RUSSIANGATE or COSPIRACY, what about this Turkish which publicly support Biden?


p.s. SOMEHOW i can't incorporate twitch link properly, can any mod fix it for me?

Public support from foreign allies is considered 'normal' and good sport, always.

In fact, you organize trips and meet and greets, if you have a (perceived as more important) foreign national leader on your calling card, because meeting them in a pre election period gives you 'leadership points' with the locals.

So other way around is generally accepted as well..

IF BY ANY CHANCE Russia publicly supported Trump , I'm 100% sure he 's already impeached. I'm sure this is not how things work in considering Turkey/Syria situation.

That Turkish streamer could be a Turkish spy and he's in COLLUSION WITH BIDEN in order to interfere USA election.

Joe Biden is old as hell, come on guys.

Joe Biden is old as hell, come on guys.

And he's already been in the government for 47 years while doing nothing.
