So, you missed the part where she ripped Trump a new asshole. Word salad my damn ass. I know a little something about public speaking, double diamond in the National Forensic League, national winner of the VFW speech contest, of course all that was back in the dark ages. She is actually pretty good. Is she William Jennings Bryan, well he no, who is.
I would be presumptuous, indeed, to present myself against the distinguished gentlemen to whom you have listened if this were mere measuring of abilities; but this is not a contest between persons. The humblest citizen in all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error.
While I doubt there will be a Trump/Harris debate, if there is, Harris should pull out that quote in her opening statement, making sure that Trump speaks first, and she speaks last.
There are two ideas of government. There are those who believe that if you will only legislate to make the well-to-do prosperous their prosperity will leak through on those below. The Democratic idea, however, has been that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous their prosperity will find its way up through every class which rests upon them.
You come to us and tell us that the great cities are in favor of the gold standard; we reply that the great cities rest upon our broad and fertile prairies. Burn down your cities and leave our farms, and your cities will spring up again as if by magic; but destroy our farms, and the grass will grow in the streets of every city in the country.
Half way in the debate she needs to pull out that quote. I mean damn, that was almost 125 years ago. And I am here to tell you, Trump returns to the presidency, the grass will grow in the streets of every city in the country. He damn near made that happen with his disastrous response to Covid. And then, in the end, she needs to ask him where those quotes came from. Of course, he will be clueless. Then she should ask him if he knew who William Jennings Bryan was, again clueless.
