I think that's pretty obvious Skinny, if you follow policy.
Obama > Biden > Kamala are all following a route of de-escalation with Iran. Read about the Obama Iran Nuclear deal, which Trump immediately dumped when he got into office.
Trump is a neohawk (as much as he pretends not to be), and is surrounded by the same old Republicans who want nothing but to go to war with Iran.
It is in Iran's best interests to see Trump lose.

Might I add, I don't think for a second Trump's campaign was hacked by Iran, that's as much a bullshit excuse as his plane had "mechanical failures" and couldn't land at an airport he owed money to 
Someone leaked from inside his campaign. It's literally falling apart for him, it's fantastic to watch this whole thing implode.

Former President Donald Trump’s campaign said Saturday in a statement that it had been hacked.
Politico reported earlier Saturday that it had received emails from an anonymous account with documents from inside Trump’s campaign operation.
“These documents were obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States, intended to interfere with the 2024 election and sow chaos throughout our Democratic process,” Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement to CNN.
Cheung pointed to a recent report published by Microsoft that said Iranian operatives had ramped up their attempts to influence and monitor the US presidential election by creating fake news outlets targeting liberal and conservative voters and by trying to hack an unnamed presidential campaign.
“On Friday, a new report from Microsoft found that Iranian hackers broke into the account of a ‘high ranking official’ on the U.S. presidential campaign in June 2024, which coincides with the close timing of President Trump’s selection of a Vice Presidential nominee. This comes after recent reports of an Iranian plot to assassinate President Trump around the same time as the Butler, PA tragedy,” Cheung said, referring to the attempted assassination of Trump at a rally last month.
Cheung said, “The Iranians know that President Trump will stop their reign of terror just like he did in his first four years in the White House. Any media or news outlet reprinting documents or internal communications are doing the bidding of America’s enemies and doing exactly what they want.”

Iranian operatives have ramped up their attempts to influence and monitor the US presidential election by creating fake news outlets targeting liberal and conservative voters and by trying to hack an unnamed presidential campaign, Microsoft said in research published late Thursday.
One of the phony news sites allegedly created by Iranian operatives called former President Donald Trump an “opioid-pilled elephant in the MAGA china shop” and a “raving mad litigiosaur,” Microsoft researchers said.  | Huh TIL Trump has a Viet-Chinese Spokesman.

I think both have happened.

Another one came out
The Republicans have said that any version of dressing in drag is considered "grooming", so how do they apply that mental gymnastics to JD?
By the way, I think there's no issue throwing on a wig for a laugh who cares, but they've made that bed of stupidity, now they have to sleep in it.

Opposition's response: | I'd strongly suggest to actually give a listen instead of just reading what MSM or the Harris campaign has to say.
The first hour or so was just ok as it's Trump talking mostly... but the second hour, the last 45min or so was great. Just listening to two influential people sharing their thoughts on topics back and forth unscripted and purely straight out of their mind.
And if you actually listen to it, you'd actually find Harris' response extremely lame and rude. It's like they cannot comprehend the idea that people could have a conversation about important topics.
The liberal way is always like "trust me, my way is the best, better than any of other proposals" in the most condescending kinda way. When in fact, by having a long and thorough discussion, we can take the best out of both sides of the argument and find the best outcome by considering both sides.

-listened to news coverage about Elon and Trump's conversation on X.
Slurred speech from Trump. -huge audio distractions in that interview.
Trump's lisp made him sound like the cartoon character Sylvester the Cat. https://www.thenewdaily.com.au/news/...rump-interview The bizarre audio overshadowed the content of their discussion, which hit on the assassination attempt, immigration, “ssstupid people”, and the US presidential election being a fork in the road in history.
Instead of Trump’s return to X on Monday (US time) being a triumphant moment, social media users were distracted by the comical-sounding sentences coming from his mouth.
“Why does Trump sound like Donald Duck? This lisp thing is distracting,” said one X user.
Quipped another: “Is it possible because Trump was told that his interview with Elon wasn’t being ‘televised’ that he thought that he could take his dentures out and didn’t realise that then we could hear his lisp?”
Another X user drew comparisons between Trump and the Looney Tunes character Sylvester the Cat. Sufferin’ succotash! Sounds like Trump has a major lisp.”
-hearing that "technical issues" created an audio compression problem on X hahhaa.
USA Today columnist Rex Huppke said the interview was an “unmitigated disaster”.
“ He sounded like a disoriented, racist Daffy Duck,” wrote Huppke in a brutal review of the chat.

Trump before Elon endorsed him: Why is Biden making people buy electric cars, electric is stupid, more coal, then they'll have electric planes and when it's cloudy the planes they just fall out of the sky and the electric boats they sink because the batteries are so heavy and sharks eat you. Democrats electric far left electric hate hate hate.
Trump after Elon endorsed him: "Well I guess I'm for electric cars because Elon gave me a big endorsement" (this is an actual quote)
Fuck these people.

Hahaha. Lefties hypocrisy at their finest.
Trump slurs a bit: he sounds like Donald Duck!
Biden slurs 100x worse: sharp as a tack.
Please. Can’t they actually discuss anything meaningful? Like if you don’t agree with the way Trump proposes on some issues, convince voters how their version is actually better. Instead, we have these pointless attacks that obscure the actual truth: lefties have no fucking idea on policies.

They wont know or give a shit about you being Taiwanese.... its the same shit to them. you will be discriminated against. Try joining a trump rally and see how they treat you

Instead, we have these pointless attacks that obscure the actual truth: lefties have no fucking idea on policies. | I mean this is kind of ironic, I literally read an article yesterday, written by a Republican voting writer, talking about how the party and Trump need to start talking about WHAT they are going to do when they're in office and how they intend to help the American people instead of just non-stop attacking Kamala Harris' ethnicity and intelligence.
I mean the most recent speech of Trump's that I watched, he never talked about policy. He just talked about how he doesn't care how to say Kamala Harris name and me me me me me the entire time. He never once said anything about the American people or what he would do if he was in office.
I'll give Vance some credit here, at least he's mentioned SOME policy. He got caught off guard when someone pointed out to him that his family tax credit plan was actually an idea Harris had floated 3 years ago though.
If you watch any of the Democratic conventions, the language is totally different, they're also not getting into detail about policy at this point in time, but at least they're talking about helping people and it's not just about them and what they want. Say what you want about dull tack Biden, his administration has put PLENTY of policy in play... and one of the main ones for border security, the Republicans shot it down just so they could enact it themselves when they're in office and Trump wanted to be able to keep it as a talking point running up to the election. Literally shooting themselves in the foot.

Literally no one on the planet thinks Biden is sharp as a tack. You create these scenarios in your head to justify your blind following of a politician that wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.
He'd be busy getting pissed on by a Russian prostitute but still, even if he wasn't.

I listened to a portion of the interview, nothing new was discussed, Trump espousing his same old talking points through his clearly failing dentures.
One thing I noticed, Elon is a TERRIBLE public speaker, my god, it's amazing he's a CEO of a company being such a bad orator, it was cringy at some points, and you could tell he was nervous.
I haven't used twitter in a while, and I was shocked at how many garbage bots littered the comment section of the Spaces.

Jesus you're an idiot.

This is why these rightwing billionaire wackos have absolutely HATED his appointments like Lina Khan, they're actually out there doing their jobs and enacting real policy for the public.
What a refreshing bloody change.
It's a shame the Democrats and more broadly Biden have been so poor at translating all their accomplishments from a policy perspective to the public.
