Where the parts including him/mentioning him can be easily edited out in case she does not. The guy in the tweet is the same guy from the Philly Dems rumor.. I understand prepping videos in advance but how can there be a pick when she hasn't even met in person with all of them including shapiro?
Rotunda Posted August 2 Posted August 2 I do think it's weird for a journalist to say "It's Josh Shapiro y'all" but not clarify whether the mayor has been explicitly told it was going to be Shapiro or whether they had the video on hand for if he's announced… And then this insane hedging here:
Bamboo Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Its a toss-up in PA right now and that's after Trump has been doing rallies there for weeks. Kamala has been trending upward everywhere in polling over the past several days so I am confident PA can easily become lean D in the next week or two. Her polling has not plateaued yet so the momentum is still there, we just have to watch and wait.

Scheduled posts make sense and they can always cancel a scheduled post if they need to. WE ARE STILL IN THE CLEAR, LADIES.

I am sure they have a favorite, maybe 2-3 favorites, but by all accounts she has not even met with them yet and interviews are still going throughout the weekend. I don't think the major of Philadelphia of all people would know this information without some other source leaking it to the press already. It felt like campaigning. I hope it is.

Also, this person has me blocked and I have no idea why.

It's giving manipulation that might backfire even if they did it to test the waters and not to force her hand. To be fair, a lot of these things are done the Friday before a Monday announcement with different iterations to push it out immediately depending on who is chosen but it's weird.

Vermillion Posted August 2 Posted August 2 It ain't over 'til it's over. While we're on that subject, let me keep burying him. @Communion
shelven Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Lemme just spend the weekend mentally preparing myself for it to be Shapiro If it ends up being him, then at least I'll have internalized it and will be less annoyed on the day it's announced. And if it's not him (which I'm skeptical of, since I don't trust the Dems to actually avoid an unforced error), then I'll be pleasantly surprised. Gonna be super fun to hear Blue MAGA spend 3 months complaining about the media's double standard of giving too much coverage to Shapiro's office's sexual harassment scandal while downplaying Trump's own sexual assault when they could have just avoided the double standard in the first place by not picking him. 4
Sannie Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Imagine having to beg Kyle Rittenhouse to detract his statement and vote for you. 10
Vermillion Posted August 2 Posted August 2 @shelven Honey, it's all about the murder cover-up now, not even the sexual harassment.

He may be fueling rumors before an announcement to try and spark backlash to hopefully get the Harris campaign to reconsider. As a progressive I of course agree with him but basically do remember he was pushing for Kenyatta for the Senate race and then helped us and joined in on the Lamb bashing when it was clear it was either Fetterman or Lamb.
Vermillion Posted August 2 Posted August 2 THANK. YOUR. LOCAL. JOURNALISTS. This wouldn't have been made public recently without them! (also like for the algorithm) 7 3
Sannie Posted August 2 Posted August 2 I've decided to fully believe she will not choose Shapiro because of all of these allegations and the dirt that's been dug up. And if she chooses Shapiro, I will simply pretend she didn't. 10
Communion Posted August 2 Posted August 2 (edited) 14 minutes ago, Blade said: Just to add context. Armand Domalewski is not a political insider. He's just a "zoning reform advocate" who got big on Twitter amongst people who are super partisan Democrats, affluent, and top priority is building more for-profit housing. He's just a twitter personality trying to get engagement while also cooling any heat off of Harris through plausible deniability as a Vote Blue No Matter Who'er. He's literally just some "housing influencer" from Palo Alto, CA who posts about politics. I had to block him cause his shitty centrist hot takes always ended up on my feed (hint: he hides his little blue check). Edited August 2 by Communion 1
Sannie Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Shapiro volunteering for the IDF. That must be disqualifying... being in another country's military is insane. 1 6
nadiamendell Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Yeah, it's becoming more and more clear that Shapiro would be an absolute disaster. If she still, after everything that has been revealed, chooses him for VP, my opinion on her decision-making abilities would drop dramatically. 5
