This in no way should be about the candidate's personalities but, about the policies they would put in place. Both candidates have shown the policies they supported in the past.

Say it with me. "Solyndra". How is A Harris money give away to auto plants and parts makers for EV vehicles not part of a socialist agenda ? It is the complete opposite of freedom.
A $100 miilion dollar investment ? In Michigan-based companies like Ford who just reported a major losses in revenue from their electric car production. With brand new year / two year old models on dealership lots. The push from Lansing and Washington, D.C.and beyond show the Democrat's agenda to force electric vehicles on everybody shows how out of touch they are with reality, and how they have no interest in addressing key issues like improving the economy.
Say it with me. "The peoples car". Straight out of Hitler's playbook.
Harris supports "freedom" of choice for women's reproductive rights, and protects citizens freedom to vote as opposed to the rights authoritarian laws that want to limit the ability to vote.
Again the opposite of "authoritarian"
You can wrap a turd in powdered sugar but it still is not a donut. Women have the freedom of choice when they choose to open their legs. Abortionists are not for reproductive rights. A being has a right to develop. Abortionists are actually dismembering the defenseless who have all of the same physiology as the woman.
What authoritarian laws are the Republicans for that limit the ability to vote ?

Say it with me. Solyndra went out of business 12 years ago and has nothing to do with Harris.
And a "socialist agenda" would not support a private for profit company.
Maybe you should learn the meaning of the word "socialist" before you make any more commenst.

Again this has nothing to do with "socialism"
Breaks to support electric cars are no different from the tax breaks given to the oil industry or subsidies to farmers. None of that is "socialism"

People want cheap energy and food. No one wants an electric car. They can't give them away for cost on dealership lots.

Then it is a good thing that Biden's policies helped the United States economy deal with the covid inflation better than most of the worlds richer countries.
And it is a good thing domestic oil companies are producing more now than they did during the Trump administration.
Not under the United States Constitution. If that were true then abortion would be illegal everywhere in the United States.
But authoritarian conservatives have created the right at the state level in some places. They will even force rape victims (who had no choice) to carry the baby of their rapist to term. That is the most extreme case of authoritarian government I can imagine. Their hatred of freedom and individual rights disgusts me. And I think there will be some backlash at the polls.

If abortion was a right, SCOTUS could not take it away.

Just because a Tesla may or may not be able to be spotted in some random photo doesn't legitimatize a false statement. I can see the proof every day with my own eyes that you are wrong. You would too if you'd just open them.

And Trump used to be a democrat.
And YOU used to be a democrat.
If Harris is a "liar" for changing her mind then so are you, Trump, and Vance.
While I was admittedly a "Registered Democrat " for a very long time, I've always been a Conservative. Which means, I didn't vote for very many Dems at election time.

According to Trumps Supreme Court, requiring people show proof of citizenship when registering to vote
So, you consider this a bad thing? You want people who are not citizens to be able to vote? No wonder the Communist countries of the world are sending people across our borders. My goodness you drank the whole punch bowl.................. Grateful "Illegal Aliens" will no doubt vote for the "Border Czar".

You actually think the Trump Supreme Court wants non-citizens to vote? Seriously? You are a perfect example of how the right wing media brainwashes people. You have no actual knowledge of policy or details. All you know are simple minded speaking points.
The problem with this law ws the number of actual citizens that would be prevented from voting because they don't have the proper documentation. Every move to protect the voting rights of US citizens is NOT part of a huge conspiracy to allow illegal immigrants to vote. Thankfully the SCOTUS took the time to educate themselves on this issue.

This is not true at all. Let me see your source on this.
Originally posted by BingB: Nothing. Production just increased like it has for years once they got geared back up after Covid.
The point is that Biden did not do anything to hurt oil production the way many people claim.
So you say. In what ways did Biden hurt oil production ?
The record profits of the oil and gas industry realized during the Biden presidency were not directly related to his administration’s policies: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a post-pandemic surge in travel demand and the proliferation of new technology that helped the US significantly increase its production of oil and natural gas all played a role, said Tom Kloza, global head of energy analysis at the Oil Price Information Service.

He didn't. That was my point. Oil companies are producing more and making higher profits than they did when Trump was in office.
If you want to talk about the role of technology the only reason the US was "energy independent" under Trump was through fracking and liquified natural gas production.

The quoted above sounds just like what I hear every Democrat squeal on the Sunday Morning News shows, doesn't matter which channel, it's all the same. So tell me again who is echoing who? Just how much of that Kool Aid did you drink?
How you come up with these conclusions is beyond my imagination. Proper IDs are easy to get, one only needs to make the effort. Anyone that thinks that the millions of illegal border crossers won't be offered a path to citizenship is simply lying to themselves. We have rules and regulations for immigration. Those trying to legally immigrate are also being screwed. Those illegal border crossers should be arrested and sent back to their own countries. If, they follow the established rules (not Biden's exceptions), then they would be very welcomed. Let us know when you take a few of these "Illegal aliens" into your own home to pay for and care for. The US taxpayer is simply being screwed by the Biden/Harris Administration so they can eventually get more grateful illegal alien votes. To believe otherwise is simply being foolish.

Why are we not still energy independent under Biden ?
Yet I may see a Tesla only every once in awhile. My statement that no one wants an electric car was an exaggeration. Have you seen any other electric car model grace your streets ? They can't give them away for cost on dealership lots.
Tesla says operations at the new Vancouver facility will include servicing, vehicle preparation, delivery operations and a showroom.
Wow, that's only a dozen city blocks away from me. I wasn't even aware of it being built.

I wish I had a dashcam running yesterday, to show you what I was observing. I had just exited the freeway and was sitting at a traffic light, and I noticed the two cars beside me and the car in front of were all Teslas. Honestly, this is not an uncommon sight here. White is by far the most common color. I sometimes wonder how Tesla owners are able to identify their Tesla in a large parking lot. They all look like clones of each other.

Yes, but I can't readily identify them as quickly as I can a Tesla. I remember when this hybrid Honda came out in 1999. They were quite common here as well... but I could not believe how freakish looking they were with those rear fender skirts!
I suspect the early adoption of hybrid and/or electric vehicles in Vancouver BC is due to the fact that Vancouver historically has the highest gasoline prices in all of North America (whereas electricity is relatively inexpensive here due to hydro-electric production in this province).
