Keep it simple or Repeat it often I thought she did fine on inflation. She made the point "it was high" and "it is now low, we did that". I think she might have got that across to the average voter not already watching Duck Dynasty. I think Walz isn't going to accept any Republican characterization of his service or what he said. He never mentioned combat, never mentioned using and likely did have a service weapon when deployed. If people don't get his rank and service nothing he says could make a difference, why respond to noise. It is unfortunate that anything stated plainly and simply on immigration will be a MAGA attacking point. I don't think the plan was to make people listen to what her platform might be, it was a national introduction. And I think the bobbing and weaving were politically motivated, why opt for a Republican battlefield? I continue to believe that Wade owning Roe and Project 2025 are going to be what breaks the Republicans. I think she boosted her future ratings, a lot of people are liking the idea of "Kamala" so the reality is important. On that front both she and Walz delivered, Americans really want to believe in America. Just Despicable and DonOLD are in trouble. (DonOLD is a perfect nickname isn't it?) They both understand the world in very simple terms, women have nothing to offer them but blowjobs. Every time you see a woman with these two you now know exactly how she must have gotten there. It was a TV commercial they filmed at Arlington, they are exposing themselves in front of the nation.

Good answers. I didn't watch the interview but it would have been good for her/him to have said something like you suggest. re: Inflation - she plainly said that the early goal when they came into office was to respond to a crisis. Fine. How about saying that meant spending tons of money, that it was successful, but that spending that kind of money in combination with supply chain problems necessarily led to inflation. Then, the administration has helped bring the rate of inflation down, but wages have not increased sufficiently in the middle class to offset the impact and her plan will address that on day one. And noting that the US has the lowest rate of inflation in the world -- cuz it was and is a world-wide problem -- because of the administration's work that has strengthened the economy. Immigration - Biden didn't use executive orders to minimize the numbers because Trump's orders were struck by the courts and Biden/Harris respect the judicial branch of government. Then talk about the bill Trump killed. Then, say the only option left after that was executive orders which, in fact, are being challenged in the courts now.
