Who cares what happens on the Titanic “15 minutes before the iceberg,” the Foreign Ministry’s spokeswoman has said
The US presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris lacked substance and was largely irrelevant considering that their country is going full speed ahead towards disaster, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has argued.
Speaking on Radio Sputnik on Wednesday, she said she did not consider it a high-profile event. It mattered as much as the outcome of a hypothetical wrestling match on board the ill-fated Titanic during its trip across the Atlantic Ocean, she claimed.
”Who do you think won? Why would that matter? The iceberg is 15 minutes away,” she said.
Extending the metaphor, she said neither Trump nor Harris intended to get to the wheel to change the course of the ship. America is on its way to a “total, global disaster” and the rest of the world is trying to prepare for it, she suggested.
The debate itself, according to Zakharova, was a mixture of “fantasizing about the future” and citing some facts about the past, with the candidates failing to agree on what those facts were.
”We were given the latest show by people who apparently never ever take any responsibility for what they say,” the Russian official said.
International audiences paid attention to what happened in Philadelphia on Tuesday night because they want to know which nations “will get punished and how much” during the next US presidential term, Zakharova stated.
According to the media, neither candidate had a decisive advantage over the other in the debate, which could be the only one between Trump and Harris before the November election. In a CNN focus group of 13 undecided voters from Pennsylvania, eight said the Democratic candidate won. Meanwhile six out of 10 undecided voters interviewed by Reuters said they were siding with the Republican after the face off.

Republican Congressman Thomas Massie has long fought to publicize the files related to the late pedophile
A Republican lawmaker has accused US President Donald Trump of attempting to distract the public from the Epstein scandal by embroiling the country in a conflict with Iran.
Representative Thomas Massie’s comments come after the release of millions of pages of files on late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein by the US Justice Department (DOJ). The documents mention Trump over 5,000 times, though without any indication of criminal activity.
“Bombing a country on the other side of the globe won’t make the Epstein files go away,” Massie said on X on Sunday.
In other posts, the congressman described the US-Israeli attacks on Iran as “acts of war unauthorized by Congress” and expressed opposition to the conflict. “This is not ‘America First.’”.....more below
