21 false claims and hoaxes that Harris uttered on live television (Part 3)

20. “Not one” troop in any war zone

Harris claimed there are currently no active-duty troops in any combat zone anywhere around the world for the first time this century. This is false.

There are currently active duty U.S. troops deployed to Iraq and Syria who have been under frequent attack by Iran-backed militia forces over the past year. There are also thousands of active-duty U.S. sailors deployed to the Middle East who are facing attacks by drone strikes and missiles fired by the Iran-backed Houthi forces in Yemen. Earlier this year, three U.S. soldiers were killed on the border of Syria by Iran-backed forces.

21. Taking guns away

Harris claimed that she and her running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) “are not taking anyone’s guns away.” This is false. Harris has campaigned on banning AR-15s and other guns that Democrats label “assault weapons.”

Just last month, during their first campaign event together, Harris and Walz pushed for a ban on AR-15s and other guns.

While ABC’s debate moderators Linsey Davis and David Muir failed to fact-check the plethora of false claims and hoaxes uttered by Harris, they frequently tried to fact-check Trump, with Muir even bizarrely fact-checking a joke the 45th president had previously made.

the whole debate was pointless and biased against Trump. Kamelturd never answered one question and all she did was lie.

The debate was a waste of time. The ABC "moderators" blatantly assisted Harris from the very beginning, and Trump had to debate them as well as her. All she did the whole time was lie and smirk.

21 - Taking guns away

That's a slippery slope. He made a general statement, "she's going to take your guns away", which she disputed. Taking away "AR-15s and some automatic weapons" does not equate to "all guns", so this argument has to be left to stand due to apples vs. watermelons.

I by no means support Kamala, but I do think AR-15s should be banned. That to me, seems like a no-brainer. Don't take that to mean that your handguns and shotguns are next. Just stop with being so paranoid.

"Let me be clear about this..." to coin a phrase.

Liberal Democrat Socialists and leftist anti-gunners use the emotional argument, "If it saves just one life, it will be worth it" when it comes to ever-increasing gun control legislation.

It's a vicious cycle that will end up in confiscation, at some point, because with each restrictive law, people will still be killed by idiots and criminals using firearms.

The question I have is, "How many deaths by firearms per year across the nation are 'tolerable' by the anti-gunners before they stop trying to pass ever-increasing, freedom-restricting firearm laws?"

Is that 10,000?

5,000?

10?

At some point, someone will say, "Well...we've tried everything to stop firearm deaths in this country and people still kill each other with guns. The only thing we haven't tried is forced confiscation."

And, there you have it.

Do you really think that if AR-15s were banned and people still were being killed with guns that they'd stop with AR-15s?

If you do, you are drinking the liberal Democrat Socialist and leftist Kool-Aid.

Not supporting an AR-15 ban makes Republicans really appear to be extreme gun-lovers.

Automatic weapons exponentially increase the harm rate inflicted by the shooter. It's pretty simple. Those are military-grade weapons that should not be publicly sold. Don't use the argument "we have to defend ourselves against the government". You'll never get a tank or F-16, so that argument is no longer valid.

Gun violence will continue after an AR-15 ban, but many lives will be saved.

I'm conservative but I truly don't believe that Democrats care about taking handguns and hunting rifles away from the public.

"...Not supporting an AR-15 ban makes Republicans really appear to be extreme gun-lovers."

Only to the ignorant who don't see the larger picture.

https://thereload.com/gallup-nearly-half-of-democrats-support-a-handgun-ban/

"...49 percent of self-identified Democrats supported 'a law that would ban the possession of handguns, except by the police,' while 51 percent were opposed. Democratic support for a ban was up nine points since Gallup asked the same question in 2021.

Someone we know's daughter is literally in one of those places as we speak. They were 100% supporters until she lied. Now they don't know what to do.

"...Now they don't know what to do..."

Well, I'd say they should know what NOT to do!

If I were Trump, I'd want a rematch and on FOX just to see the Moderators do the very same thing to Harris as ABC did to him in that 4 on 1 beatdown and then see what the excuses are afterwards in this whole "He won, she won" crap. It simply boils down to the fact that Harris had no plan and simply used that elaborate looking earpiece she had on to go after Trump when they told her to and what topic to go after him with, that's why she was so confident in this is she clearly had help and knew the questions and answers ahead of time thanks largely in part to her good friend who is an Executive at ABC and hates Trump

As I wrote in another thread:With Trump…what you see and hear…is what you get. It stays the same.

With Kackling Kamala…who knows what you’ll see and hear. She changes everyday…akin to a chameleon. She plays to whatever audience she’s speaking. It’s a Democrat thing. They all do it because they are the epitome of phoniness and lies.

The call out to Kackling Kamala’s lies during the debate proves my point. She skirted around the Afghanistan withdrawei questions. NEVER answered the question. Thry let her get by on ii. Biden & Harris own that fiasco. Trump needs to nail her more on the thousands crossing the border. They need to have another debate with unbiased moderators. Republicans always get screwed with the moderators chosen. These last two were right in Kackling HARRIS’s pockets.

She kept saying she has a plan. Take from the wealthy! even though they pay most of the taxes. Her plan is to give $25,000 tax credit to homebuyers. What about us poor slobs who did it the hard but fair way. We worked, we &saved. Trump challenged her by asking “Where have you been for rhe last almost 4 years?” Was that answered? Hell no! Of course she wasn’t challenged by the 2.

If she wins I won’t live long enough to see the damage she will have wrought, but it could affect our kids and most definitely our grandkids. She is a socialist thru & thru. Voters need to stop the TDS, hold their nose if they must and vote for him. We know him. We know how he ran the country in his prior term. YOU NAYSAYERS read what he did to save our country Things were much cheap, people working, etc. Don’t vote with the mindset of “Anybody but Trump. Check the stats how much bett we we. FORGET covid 19 and concentrate on his first 3 years I believe you wii be surprised when you comp it today.
