Kind intelligence? Harris can barely string a sentence together.

We had two horrible choices.

Nonsense. I've met her, she's very intelligent. The problem is that she thinks and talks like a lawyer and it rubs a lot of people the wrong way, so she is constantly trying to maintain a 'relatable!' public filter so she doesn't get called a bitch.

I can’t opine on how she thinks. But the way she talks is not like any lawyer I’ve ever worked with.

I mean, this just isn't true. She's extremely educated and well-spoken. Generally I think the attacks on her intelligence come from her being a black woman - I have doubts anyone would question her high qualifications if she was a white man.

Yes, noticing her word salad is racism.

What word salad? You can't just make things up. Even republicans can admit that she is pretty well-spoken. Lying about her doesn't make you look better, it actually makes you look worse.

I’m hardly the first to notice it. Just google, there are lots of examples. Here’s one. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/zgifVPolWi8

First off, I am perfectly able to understand what she means. Perhaps it was not the most eloquent way to put it, but I understood every word and the sentence made sense.

Secondly, I can match your examples 1000 to 1 of times she was very well-spoken. One example, one in which she does not stutter or mispronounce any words, means nothing. I know you know it means nothing. She has spoken so, so, so many times throughout her career.

Perhaps she would've better served learning Trump's "weave".

As far as word salads go, Kamala side salad doesn't compare to Trump's Seinfeld "Big Salad".

To be generous I will assume you just haven't seen enough of her.

This is just one of dozens of examples that have convinced me personally that she's legitimately not the brightest lightbulb out there:

I think the uncomfortable truth that people will try and rationalize away with all sorts of smart sounding reasons is that if Harris had been a white man she would have had a much better chance at beating Trump. Specifically with regards to speaking or intelligence every minor trip up is highlighted for Harris while Trump is so much worse in frequency yet gets a pass.
