The Issue: Vice President Kamala Harris’ closing remarks before voters go to the ballots next week.
There is no worse way to show the American people that you are a change candidate, than to give your final big speech in front of the White House (“You can run, but you can’t hide, Kam!” Oct. 30).
This just shows you how clueless Vice President Kamala Harris and her team are.
Just look at all the people that stood behind her. They seem like all college students, who have had debt passed onto the American taxpayers.

Harris’ speech was a stark reminder that the election represents more than competing visions between two candidates: It’s about the survival of the republic.
The contrast between former President Donald Trump’s hate-filled rally at Madison Square Garden and Harris’ inspirational appeal to Americans couldn’t have been more clear-cut. On one hand, we have a former president who favors dismantling the Constitution, and on the other, a vice president doing whatever is necessary to protect it.
The Framers recognized the threat that a ruler with unchecked power posed, so they created a system of institutional checks and balances to ensure that no one is above the law.
That foundational principle held until the Supreme Court granted Trump absolute immunity from prosecution for “official acts.”

Racist, misogynistic, homophobic, trans?phobic, xenophobic, a wanna-be dictator, authoritarian, fascist, Hitleresque, emotionally unhinged, mentally unstable, an existential threat to democracy, a national security risk, a threat to world order and dangerous: These are all the derogatory things Donald Trump’s critics routinely say about him.
Yet despite all of the name-calling, Kamala Harris has been unable to pull away from Trump in the polls, and is lagging behind him in several of the more respected ones.

Harris now claims that Trump is in “mental decline,” but she isn’t a doctor.
Where was she during the last four years when her boss needed psychiatric acumen?

In her “closing argument speech” in Washington, D.C, Harris said Donald Trump launched an “angry armed mob to attack the capital, injuring 140 police and killing several people.”
Harris was intending to incite, not inform.

Harris got her party’s nomination without having earned a single vote and participated in a coup to push out President Biden — yet Trump’s the fascist?

The Issue: Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s racist joke at former President Donald Trump’s rally last weekend.
Lost in all of the hullabaloo over the words Tony Hinchcliffe uttered at the now-infamous Donald Trump rally in New York is the simple fact that the insult comic wasn’t even funny (“Rubio on Puerto Rico ‘joke,’?” Oct. 29).
Unlike Don Rickles, whose views were never meant to be hurtful or divisive, Hinchcliffe seemed to enjoy offending everyone in attendance at Madison Square Garden on that fateful night.
And now one is left to wonder if the almost half a million Puerto Ricans who reside in Pennsylvania will find humor in voting for Harris.

Who let that comedian say that about Puerto Rico? That person should be fired.
