Thank you for your service. I am so frightened at how easily Trump can lie. I can't stomach to watch the town hall. The sad thing is, his own aide said that he told her to just make things up when talking to the public, and no matter what "deny deny deny"! A playbook from Roy Cohen and Hitler

I wanted to say, even though it's not on topic exactly here, that while you and your brother chose to serve our nation's military in order to pay back the country that took your family in, I believe that speaking up and speaking out about 45's blackmailing call to Zelensky provided a perfect balance: Paying something back to the country your family came from. I am so in awe of your strength and leadership.

This is simple:

Donald Trump is one of the most morally and intellectually corrupt miscreants ever to besmirch planet Earth. He belongs in a compost pit, not the Oval Office.

Oh, no, you don't want 'that' in a compost pile! Compost is supposed to be helpful for your plants & garden, if 'that' was thrown in the compost would be ruined. It would be better to dispose of 'that' in a hazardous waste disposal site.

I loved Dave Bautista 's rant ! I'm so glad he released it to the public ! It is hilarious and points out what the majority of the people feel about the delusional, demented, lying , sex offender , fraudulent mango moron !

I liked the Jimmy Kimmel released version better because it had fewer chops that anyone could pretend they thought was editing out context (ha ha ha!) but it did have an awfully rude bit or two so, with appropriate cautioning that this is not for minor eyes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGxwn_N9DtE

While Trump meandered without actually answering the question about why the former Republican should vote for him, the camera panned across a number of women sitting with arms tightly crossed in front of their body. Not a good indicator of what those undecideds were hearing from him.

Got a kick out of him answering the Hispanic man who had a interpreter and saying these people come in and can’t even speak our language and need a interpreter. Dah!!!!

Trump - and many native-born American citizens - has had multiple opportunities to learn other languages. Yet we think English is the only language worth knowing. Isn't communication more important than the language used? We choose our ignorance, while Europeans roll their eyes at us.

I have fallen in love with Spanish over the years. All we see of Spanish is the language is that of the very poor and desperate immigrants who have come to this country. America houses communities speaking ALL the world’s languages. It’s a country of all the world. We can love them.

The city where I live has the highest population of people of Hispanic descent who are not at all capable of speaking Spanish. I see this a a loss to American culture, not a gain. So many people abandoned the language of home out of shame at being β€œforeign.” That saddens me.

Maybe we should make the Bautista clip part of required curriculum to graduate from high school? Better yet, grade school, but with overly obvious edits of β€œdang”, β€œshoot” and β€œflippin’”.

Thanks, Chris. There are far too many times that I think you play with Trump’s comments for comedic effect (nothing wrong with comedy: I watch Kimmel’s, Colbert’s, Meyer’s monologues every day on YouTube), but this time you’ve called a spade a spade and it’s appreciated.

It was indeed a disaster and (I believe and hope) has done him no good, and likely harm, with the Latino community. Given how Univision has tried to β€œtack right” over the last few years, I was a bit concerned about his appearance there, but regardless of what their management *thought* they might accomplish with the town hall, Trump made certain it was horrendous.

It’s no wonder LaCivita & Wiles are restricting his appearances, when he SHOULD be prosecuting his β€œclosing arguments” now.

As an aside: can you imagine what a train wreck it would be if Trump were to go to the β€œenemy camp” for an interview, let’s say Rachel Maddow on MSNBC, similar to Harris going on Fox with Baier?!? That would absolutely be β€œMust See TV”!

I especially liked the double take the young woman sitting in the top row took when trump said Ashley Babbit was killed& then immediately said no one was killed. The man is desperate.

I am so glad that the gentleman who picks strawberries & harvests broccoli (thank you,sir,by the way) asked trump who was going to do that if he deports all those people. I've been saying that for years, along with, who's going to change the bedding & clean the rooms in all those hotels? Who's going to do all the "menial labor"? If he does that the country will shut down. His bro buddies certainly won't do any of that work!!!

Thank you so much for all your insight. From one very to another, keep the faith brother, I think we got this.

I got a β€œweave” for Don demento: Americans will be taking a wide weave around voting for his racist, rapist, fascist ass on Nov 5th and I can’t wait for it. #BlueTsunami2024

Watching the town hall with Trump and Latinos I was interested in what he had to say. Obviously, from the body language and scowls on the faces of the audience, and the interview with the gentleman who asked some very important questions, Latinos, at least in that room, are not Trump supporters.

The Univision event was great! Voters who were interested in getting their questions answered. They made him try to act like a legitimate presidential candidate but it was just too big a job for anyone.
