Everyone in Trump's world is an asshole.
My kids keep me humble, Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders preened, thereby disproving her own claim. Unfortunately, Kamala Harris and at this point Sanders mispronounced the vice presidents name doesnt have anything keeping her humble.
Leave aside the gall of accusing the opposing candidate of lacking humility when you are the warm-up act for Donald Trump, Sanders is living proof that parenthood offers no guarantee of that virtue.
Enough, too, with the deliberate othering of someone with an unusual, foreign-sounding first name. Its not hard to learn the correct pronunciation. Its no accident that Republicans, led by Donald Trump, consistently and flagrantly get the syllabic emphasis wrong that is, when they can manage to choke out Harriss name at all. In his debate performance, Trump referred only to she and her, as if Harris were not a person worthy of being identified or, for that matter, even looked at.

How manu men with no children were presidents?

(16,398 posts)meaning biological children born in wedlock.
Washington, who did have step-kids from Martha's first marriage.
MAGAt favorite Andrew Jackson, no bio kids with his wife, but two adopted kids and was guardian of handful of young relatives.
Polk fostered a relative child for a time, but never was a formal or legal parent/guardian. After his death, after leaving office, his wife again fostered a (different) young relative.
Buchanan never married, no known kids.
Harding had no kids with his wife, but had a daughter with his mistress.
So about 1/10 of POTUSs have no biological children, and about the same for their spouses. Including two major MAGAt/Repug favorites, Washington and Jackson.

I'd rather not have kids and look like Harris, than have kids and look like Sanders.
I wrote what I wrote. Sanders is ugly on the inside and disturbing to look at on the outside. We are all thinking it - I've just got the guts to write it.

Fred Guttenberg Gives a Huge Backfire at her Stupid face:

(2,025 posts)Fred Guttenberg is an American activist against gun violence. His 14-year-old daughter Jaime Guttenberg was murdered in the Parkland high school shooting in suburban Fort Lauderdale, Florida on February 14, 2018.
And for those not wanting to go to X to complete his post...
"because of gun violence certainly made me humble. This happened because of policies that people like you believe in. What you may not know about VP Harris is that when I humbly invited her to walk the hallways of the school where my daughter was killed, and which is still an untouched crime scene, the VP humbly said yes. She walked the hallways and saw the blood, the DNA, the bullet holes, the coursework that children such as my daughter did not get to finish.
While she is humble enough to not talk about this personal experience, I invited her, and I was there. I will talk about it. Watching her humbly and with empathy meet with all of the families who were there and to engage everyone is a testament to how humble she is and to her strength. Unlike leaches like you Sarah, when we elect VP Harris as President, she will on behalf of all of the nations children to everything she can to address gun violence."

Which only further shows the dearth of even a modicum of INTEGRITY this Karen has.
Taking personal shots at Kamala for not being shit-eating subservient enough for (Sarah's) racist druthers; attacking Kamala's legitimacy as a parent, and other BULLSHIT cheap shots that only people of such addle brains can dream up.
All on behalf of the rapist convicted felon, tax cheat, and classified documents thief who called Nazis very fine people, called America's war heroes "suckers and losers," lied to America about a deadly pandemic, incited a Capitol RIOT and insurrection that got people killed, and of late, sparked multiple bomb threats on a whole community by falsely accusing their LEGAL Black migrants of eating cats and dogs...
just for STARTERS.
Such is the LOWLIFE mentality of Sanders, and others LIKE her, who'd hold Trump in higher esteem.
In short, FUCK Sanders...
(a thought, in and of itself, repulsive I'm sure).

(2,586 posts)..it's all distraction. It's either Trump beside himself that Kamala is getting more attention than him or the Trump mutts trying to misdirect the attention away from Trump's latest outrageous claims, like the Haitians eating the cats or his dismal performance in the debate.

(14,189 posts)It's to distract from crimes and a sick and twisted plan, and also to distract from the brilliant character and program of the opposition.
You wrestle with a pig and never come out clean.
And the media love it because they are playing the same game.
I live without TV and have many hours more for my chores and hobbies than most. I hiked, took photos, practiced piano, and spent a little time on DU today, and it was a slow day for me, at 75.
Life's too short to have other people in my brain with flamethrowers.
