I wouldn't say "perfect" she did what an average American would be able to do it's just impossible to not compare her to Biden and trump.
Mr Bean would look like the orator of his generation (what we used to say about Biden 40 years ago) if we're only comparing him to Biden and trump.
We can't just ignore Kamala's faults, if we do the only pressure she'll have the next four years is to move to the right.
Don't get complacent, the fascists won't.
So I'm fine with saying Kamal did well, fine with saying she didn't great even.
But we should never say a candidate is perfect.
Bruh, I’m talking about debate performance exclusively. She did perfect! I think there were a lot of subtle things she did that manipulated Trump into acting the way he did.
I’m proud of her!
May I split a hair?
I’d say… easier to defend “nearly perfect” - I’m sure if she created an edit where she gave new answers (think, magically, from a position of ignorance about what the opposition was about to say) it would be even better and could get to all but truly perfect.
I caught about 2-3 wording fumbles early on. Hey I’ll take it, that’s not a knock, wouldn’t bring it up outside the context of discussing perfect performances.
Wish we’d had her in the last debate :-/
So you think Kamala has zero room for improvement and it can only get worse from last night?
Because that's what perfect means, not a single bit that could have been handled better
If I say you bowled a perfect game, that doesn’t mean every aspect of your life is perfect and everything will only ever get worse for you. It means in that one game you played, you could not do any better. Maybe in the future you can bowl perfect games as well, but you can never beat that game.
Her debate performance was perfect. If she has a future debate, I believe it could only be worse.
This says nothing about Kamala as a person or candidate or vice/president or even as a bowler.
It's wild that you had to explain the context of your remark as though it wasn't already clear as crystal.
It's just because the other guy is fishing for some kind of "gotcha" comment tbh
