Harris’s proposals for home health care & building housing were spot on target and would have been transformational and helped tens of millions of Americans. But to get a chance to enact them first we had to visibly try to tear down the system that’s impoverished us with big anti-corporate anti-greed actions, not hug billionaires like the affable Mark Cuban & despicable neocon war criminals like Dick Cheney.

When Harris railed against Trump on the debate stage calling him out for his lies and many failures making him look like the small selfish petty buffoon he is, her ratings spiked! People want a fierce protector of the truth and a fighter to smack down our foes and speak plainly! She did that.

I don’t usually encourage people to be rude and put others down but sometimes it’s a part of setting appropriate boundaries and you have to put someone in their place, especially abusers, and call a threat a threat and a lie a lie.

I think Trump warranted being called out on his lies, hate, and incompetence by the news media and by his political opponents and it should have started with his racist birtherism years ago! When Kamala Harris did it during the debate most of us breathed a big sigh of collective relief! It was about time he was put in his place.
