    Default A candidate with the ability to admit when she is wrong.

    I love it...

    I like her even more.

    Harris should have apologised, and she DID.

    “Kamala Harris apologizes amid criticism of her response to a questioner's offensive remark about Trump.”
    CNN

    Yes, she apologized “amid criticism.”

    She was caught and had to apologize.

    Better than being caught and refusing to apologise. She was wrong, someone pointed it out, she apologised. Thats better than what we have in the white House.

    It showed that Dems can be honest and admit that they can make mistakes, although she did not say anything. Not what Trump did when a follower responded to his what do we do about immigrants and he answered "shoot them"Trump laughed and said only in Oklahoma. Trump did not apologize. The Dems can and do.

    It is a good life skill to have. At the end of the dat, all we have is our integrity and honor.

    In all the years I have been here I can count on two hands the number of posters who could admit they made a mistake , were proven wrong, or were caught having made spurious and unsubstantiated claims.
    So that skill is as rare on message boards as it is in the white house .

    I know some mentally retarded people I like much better than Rump, not a mean or egotistical bit about them. Some of the happiest people I know are mentally disabled.

    Oh, you REALLY don't want a president apologizing for every screw up they make, real or imagined by the other side! If Trump apologized for everything you jackasses just SAY he fucked up, you would accuse him of being incompetent(or should I say, you would accuse him of being even more incompetent than you do now). So let's reverse it and see how you feel: President Harris takes office and immediately starts to undo everything Trump has done, tax cuts, reinstates regulations, green new deal, opens up the border, takes all the guns, and all the other bullshit that constitutes the jackass party platform these days. And let's say it has the effect that the right predicts: high unemployment, companies moving offshore again, high energy prices, increases in violent crime...you know, basically the good ol' days of obama, except on steroids. So now she "apologizes" to the nation. Does she get a pass? What would interest me the most is, would she take full responsibility for what would be a series of epic fuckups, or would she blame the GOP?

    Yeah right. Which one has apologized for repeating the lie about Trump calling Nazis "very fine people"? Dems are pathological liars. You aren't fooling anyone.

    I prefer that to the president spending three weeks trying to prove Alabama was in the path of a hurricane.

    denied she had heard the offensive term.
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
