I saw slur in the title and thought he finally slipped up and called her the n word publicly. Can’t wait for Kamala and Walz to win in a landslide and this man goes off to pay for all his crimes.

the man could say the N word with his full chest and his supporters wouldn't blink an eye

[skyler_white_yo]

Exactly. Let’s stop pretending to be outraged this is his default setting.

[soul_amazinn]

Exactly because they’ve said it too I’m sure.

[bethmai]

Exactly. This is just reinforcing their own beliefs.

[skyler_white_yo]

Oh I’m willing to bet he’s called her much worse.

He will slip and either the C or the N will come out of his mouth at some point.

Plus it’s not like this will turn off any of his voters.

Although it would be fun to see Harris use Meredith Brooks’ song Bitch on the trail.

is it boomer of me to ask when "bitch" was a slur? (if that's the quote in question, and and obvious disclaimer that it's classless and misogynistic to use against your opposing candidate)

[theburningdoll]

i feel like it depends on the context (and now my brain is going "the word bitch didn't just fall out of the coconut tree" lmao)

[duchello]

lmao no I get you. like even writing my disclaimer I'm like... am I answering my own question. but bitch feels heavily colloquialized so I guess I just haven't really considered it as part of the words referenced as a slur, and obvs it has no place in what should be a professional campaign.

genuinely curious - what's the argument against it being a slur? 'bitch' is normalised as language to use against women (or to refer to femininity in men). it's a pejorative term that refers to a specific group (women - or perceived characteristics of women). imo that's a sexist slur which has (in parts) been reclaimed by women as well as queer men.

obvious things aside, its also very funny that essentially he's more upset about how popular Kamala is and how large her events are vs the possibility of him going to prison if he loses the presidency

[big_ang]

And the fact that KamalaHQ has made an account on Truth Social and only follow Donald and all they do is post about their crowd sizes lmao. He's livid and we love to see it.

That is fucking amazing! 👏

Bravo to her team for that!

[skyler_white_yo]

That is amazing!

I love this journey for him
