    She can’t even say more than 3 words without looking down at her teleprompter. It’s quite astonishing watching it.

        Something about her being a criminal herself considering she prosecuted 1300 people for weed then years later laughed about it and admitted she smoked weed and definitely inhaled as well.

            And what about it???

            Hint:

            she was conscious of the role of race when prosecuting. However, because of the lack of data, it is still hard to come to a conclusion as to whether or not her prosecutions disproportionately harmed people of color.

            The NAACP and DPA Report also found that from 2004 to 2008, while Black people in San Francisco made up approximately 7.5% of the city’s population, they made up approximately 37% of marijuana arrests.

            This fact check almost does the work for you, as much as they try not to.

            I’m sure everyone has done some decent acts in their life no matter how much of a POS they ended up as. Good luck to her and God bless our troops.

              marijuana arrests

              Arrests are done by the police, not the DA, so that issue lies with the police. And as much of the rest of the article pointed out, the number of people who saw the inside of a prison cell for marijuana possession was small.

                The article did not say the number of people she prosecuted who saw the inside of a cell was small it was vague in saying a small number went to state prison and some went to county jail or other conseques. Anyways how convenient. The number prosecuted remains hidden.

                And that has nothing to do with anything. You don’t have to see the inside of a cell to have your life de-railed and ruined due to a conviction. Once it’s on your record. It’s there and will affect certain opportunities you may have otherwise had. And that will follow you a long time. So that’s long term. Then there was also the short term immediate perils you may have went through going through the conviction process. Arrests are done by police sure but that’s also

          So, which is it? You’re mad she did her job, or you’re mad she smoked weed? Because, as you conveniently neglected to mention, when she admitted to having smoked it in college, she was also speaking to the fact that she supports legalizing it.

            How does it make sense. You tell me what it is.

            Smoked weed in college. 20 years later she’s prosecuting people for it. Another 20 years later she wants to legalize it. So again you tell me what it is?

            She’s a fucking demon is what it is.

            I don’t conveniently miss a damn thing.

      I hate to break it to you, but the teleprompter bit died with Obama. Trump and Biden both use them, too, they just got better at hiding them.

          So, what? Why would anyone hide that they use teleprompters? This isn’t 100 years ago when everyone still carried their speeches on paper. Trump even famously threw a tantrum when his stopped working recently.

          It’s even worse when he babbles incoherently for hours, whining about crowd sizes and people he hates and golf championships and his delusion that he won the 2020 election…

            I’ve never seen someone look down every 3 words at the teleprompter even pausing between. It’s almost like it wasn’t her speech. Ateast when she talked shit about trump at her rally the other day it all just kind of naturally flowed out.

              I’ve never seen someone go so far out of their way like you are to be so incredibly critical of an otherwise normal performance at a speech.

              I don’t know what your obsession with teleprompters is buddy, but it’s very weird.

                She’s a two faced evil scumbag. Already proven to be morally corrupt 40 years ago as she now pauses every 3 words at a time to read off that teleprompt that who knows is feeding her proving to be further morally corrupt. Who could sit there and listen to that knowing she didn’t write a single paragraph in that teleprompt.

                  It’s very normal for people in her position to hire speech writers. It’s neither a secret, nor is it something anyone would deny.

                  What is not normal is to be so obsessed by it or think that Evil or corruption have anything to do with it.

                    It’s not morally corrupt to smoke weed (illegally mind you) then turn around and prosecute people for simple non violent possession 20 fucking years later? And then years after that you turn back around and want to make it legal to smoke? So she never even thought weed was some dangerous drug did she?

                    Bahahaha give me a fucking break. And they say I need meds. Give a fuck how much she tries to atone for her sins and make it legal. It’s sick and it is evil.

                    Want to resort to personal attacks? You must be heavily sheltered and not know someone whose life was impacted. Brilliant people who could have done amazing brilliant things, life ruined because a handful of weed. And sheltered people like you and Kamala laugh about it after the fact.

      What is the purpose of this comment?

      Are you saying that because she uses a teleprompter too much she isn’t going to be a good president?

      Are you saying this because you are equating her use of a teleprompter to her intelligence?

      Are you saying this with the intention of getting people to not vote for her because she isn’t perfect ?

      Or are you just making a random statement about her?

        I’m saying she didn’t write that speech nor even partake in it’s writing nor did she read over the damn thing once or twice. And it’s obvious she did not.

        I’m saying how was that performance any better than Biden and him say accidently calling someone the wrong name and immediately correcting himself. At least the guy can get out complete sentences before pausing to read.

        Any other candidate beside trump will dog walk her if she continues to read from that thing like that. That’s what I’m saying here.

        Not true. I’ve some takes that people have agreed with. You may not agree with things I say and that’s fine. I’ll keep continuing though.
