Comparing her to Obama who won in an historic landslide. Girl! Speaking of letting it go, sis. Harris is the nominee no matter what. Let it go. Put your money where your mouth is; Biden is gone like you wanted. 2

Bill was the one having affairs left and right, but SHE was the one that was disliked the most. Hillary's favorable numbers by the end of the 90s was very high 💀 as was the case before she started running in 2016. She had the highest favorable numbers than almost all politicians then.
Thickorita Posted July 21 Posted July 21 We need to establish a Kamala .gif library on the first page of the thread for the months ahead. 1 1

Honestly, just let some people blow off some steam. I think the switch to kamala will win most of the coalition over. I really hope she is working tirelessly though to develop her campaign and platform. The next week is key!

Look, I'm not here to say HRC was a good candidate, I'm just pushing back on this narrative that she was somehow hated when the data doesn't show that. She still won the popular vote. Y'all know what "popular" means, right? People loved HRC when she was in office because she was an effective politician. It wasn't until the GOP decided to make her their scapegoat that people began to hate her. Edited July 21 by Sannie 1

Vermillion Posted July 21 Posted July 21 Uniting? The goalposts keep moving on what uniting even looks like for the Democratic Party given the existential crisis that is Trump and the fact that we just got through a pandemic, ongoing inflation, humanitarian crisis at the Southern border, genocide with our bombs in Gaza and Russia's continued invasion of Ukraine. Gen Z's lost all hope of purchasing a home, millennials have given up all hope of retirement, and nihilism and cynicism have taken over after the 2020 primary machinations. No one agrees on how to win over the Obama coalition again which also isn't a worthwhile comparison given that was in a very different time for social media, pop culture and our economy.

Republicans wanted Biden out of the race for personal reasons but politically they def. wanted him in. He was all they had to fight against. All their narratives were based on him and now they're gone. 2 minutes ago, Vermillion said: Uniting?

LBR, the Obama coalition no longer exists. We're too polarized as a country. The best we can do is scrape by, by the skin of our teeth. We can do that with HARRIS/SHAPIRO. 1

They were high as SOS then plummeted when she started running. Why we're revisiting 2016 again is….well it was inevitable, nevermind. So I'll repost my thoughts from Thursday… The majority of Trump's support in 2016 was due to cultural displacement due to racial resentment according to over a dozen large studies in the years that followed the election, including from a majority of the infamous Obama to Trump flip voters that Cambridge Analytica found and micro-targeted, which the right was able to spin because the average voter can't unpack the concept of someone voting for a black man while harboring racial resentment (and how that would apply to voting for a white establishment woman). In short, a white blue-collar Billy thinking "if Juan down the street who's probably illegal (he isn't) is getting my hard-earned tax dollars for his welfare then **** the system, **** all the brown people, and if Rick Scott wants to take away my Medicare, good for him because the system's rotten anyways". The rest of Trump's support came from economic lies Hillary wouldn't have been able to tackle given her hypocrisy on support of NAFTA and coal comments, etc. Even if James Comey never came forward, Benghazi never happened, she hadn't bleached a server, actually apologized for shaming Bill's victims, visited the Upper Midwest multiple times, and the Russians never got involved I still think she would've lost. 1

Kamala hasn't been in the national spotlight as many years as Hillary had before running in 2008. Plus Kamala doesn't have a Benghazi and email scandals.

Sannie Posted July 21 Posted July 21 Just now, FameFatale said: All of these are theoretically "good", but only one makes sense when it comes to what needs to be won in November. Mark Kelly can win us AZ. Roy Cooper could possibly win us NC. Beshear will win us nothing. Shapiro could win us the entire Rust Belt. BE SMART, KAMALA. BE SMART. 3
