    Holy nonsense false equivalence, Batman. Harris’s net worth (with her husband), is about $8 million, much of which comes from book sales, pensions, and the value of her home. I’ll take the millionaire who earned her assets via public service, investment, and work over the supposed billionaire who earned his assets via loans from daddy, grift, fraud, lies, and a history of refusal to pay bills.

    In all this voting third party is the crazy choice because?

    Because you started with a ridiculous lie to justify it, maybe? Or, alternatively, because it’s stupid and self-defeating.

      And the average american is a multi-millionaire? Like holy batman thats alot of words to say she can not relate to regular ppl. As in my Chapelle clip, one candidate embraces it, the other denies it. Guess who looks like an untrustworthy liar.

          Ladies and gentleman, this is called a pivot, because I made an accusation and somehow @BlackBeard has something entirely different to take attention and ignore what I said.

                You’re dodging a question you were called out on and don’t have an answer for.

                  Since you think its a dodge, even going by other guy’s numbers she is worth 20x the average American Source. By the median, shes worth 100x more than the average American Source. Your response?

                    My response is that you dodged again. To be clear, the question you dodged was:

                    When has she ever denied being wealthy?

        The average net worth of a single person in their 60s (kamala’s age) is about 1.5 million.

        So take 8 million for Kamala and husband and 3 million for an average couple in the same age group.

        I think that’s significantly closer than any of the gop or third party candidates.

        Besides, it’s not like Kamala is trying to make it a secret (unlike trump, who consistently refuses to release documents related to wealth and assets)
