Are all debates in America just 2 people talking over each other so no one can understand anything?
I think the rules are typically negotiable in advance, especially when it’s down to just 2 contenders.
Debates have the potential to show more than eloquence or intelligence, they also show soft skills like whether the candidate can control the conversation, control under pressure, how easily they succumb when bullied, and give the audience an opportunity to read their body language, which may develop (or remove) trust.
Biden famously told Trump in a debate: “would you shut up, man?” And in that moment quite a few Americans were swayed to select him believing he’s not susceptible to getting run over by trump mouth diarrhea attack like so many other politicians are.
The way she speaks it’s like her words have no meaning. Nonsensical bullshit woman.
It’s not the crime, but the coverup. So much of this would be a non-issue if she’d simply owned it, rather than talking out of both sides of her mouth.
“Private moment” as in being out in public at a well attended event… How dare people hold her accountable for her actions and treat her as the vile individual she is? /s
She’s also acting like it was some kind of spy video…
Wasn’t it just like, normal security cameras that are always running?
I guess she doesn’t know what “expected level of privacy” law means yet. She will though if she tries to pursue it. Anything outside of a bathroom or private owned business you can’t sue someone for filming footage as you can’t expect privacy. Or maybe she knows this so caustic words is all she can think to do.
I wouldn’t imagine even a privately owned business would qualify for privacy. I don’t expect any privacy when I’m walking around in Walmart.
Ok so for any of you confused about what would be an expected level of privacy while recording people in public with a cel phone:
The person working the back office of Walmart crunching numbers where customers aren’t allowed has an expected level of privacy.
The people using the bathroom in Walmart also have expected level of privacy.
The people in the changing room has an expected level of privacy.
If you were caught with a cel phone recording in any of these circumstances you could be persecuted for violating privacy.
If however you’re walking around on the main floor of Walmart recording a person looking at the price on a can of beans, you’re safe from legal prosecution as far as privacy laws (although that isn’t to say you are safe from being charged as a stalker or harassment in a certain context) .
And legally you could record what cops are doing out in public.
I’ve become generally hyperconscious of the male tendency to forcibly talk over people, especially women, as a matter of societal equity that I should do my best to pay into… but this is an instance of “I’ll allow it”.
Boebert is an absolute imbecile of a human being, and insults the very concept of democracy by the fact that enough imbeciles were fooled by such imbecilic rhetoric to elect her in the fucking first place. She is not a good person, and has clearly not developed any level of personal or social maturity beyond that of a middle schooler.
