And he's glowing with pride like he never has before. Legit I think he's glad Kamala lost because it vinidicates his case that he's the only one who could've beaten Trump, even though he would've gotten destroyed even worse. Jill Biden wore a RED suit on Election Day, so she was absolutely sending a message that said "**** Kamala and **** everyone who disrespected my husband"

The man and party have no healthcare plans and would leave millions without insurance and his ending the wars would be Russia taking over Ukraine and Israel completely taking over Palestine None of that is good things.

Her and Walz really got reined in post-DNC convention imo. This applies moreso to Harris and not as much to Walz, but I think we're all also underestimating the possibility that… she's a human being with a physical body and was likely very tired towards the end of the campaign. Even though the US's super drawn out presidential campaigns have a ton of downsides, the one upside is that candidates can slowly and naturally ramp up how much campaigning activity they're doing, which probably makes the intense last few days/weeks feel a lot easier. Harris had to go from not campaigning for president at all to suddenly having to do a busy, high energy campaign in 3 months. It would probably be a shock to anyone's system. Obviously this doesn't actually matter - the country didn't swing 6% to the right on a national scale because Harris looked a bit tired at the end - but worth pointing out that some of what we perceive as her "reigning things in" may have actually been that the super high energy, fun vibes campaign just wasn't sustainable from a pure human activity perspective. 3 1

There is zero chance the First Lady, who was smart enough to obtain an Education Doctorate, is too dumb to understand the message that wearing red while going to vote sends. She might not have voted for Trump. But she was absolutely signaling a vote of no confidence in Kamala.

I can honestly say, it is a better use of our time to imagine the conditions necessary for Katy Perry to score another Billboard Hot 100 #1 song (which are difficult to get, not everybody has that) than it is for us to imagine Donald J.

Her and Walz really got reined in post-DNC convention imo. this is why I wasn't blaming Kamala herself like some people here love to do. The woman had 0 chance especially with how out of touch the democratic party is and the fact she's black and a woman and knowing how racist and misogynistic America is right now, they still chose to throw her out there. The Dems and Biden gave this woman 2 months to make her case under Bidens shadow and you could tell they told her to align herself with him over and over. You could tell (as you said) that anytime she was actually going to put ideas out there that would've been embraced they told her to stop Even waltz came out like a month ago with less energy saying they told him to "reel it in" it was embarrassing to see the party do that to their own candidates when they knew what was at stake 2

Shou7 Posted November 7 Posted November 7 (edited) 5 hours ago, Chemist said: I completely agree with you!. The issue runs much deeper than simply deciding which policy would be best for the next dem candidate. Dems need to find a way to break Trump's support. The current Democratic coalition is unlikely to win elections again. Neoliberalism and centrism have been thoroughly rejected by voters, so they should not be considered moving forward (knowing how dems brains work, it will most likely be). The idea of a left-leaning outsider could either be a viable solution or a complete disaster, but it's worth exploring! Yeah, a left-leaning outsider would be the most straightforward solution (as opposed to the democratic party fixing itself). Whatever it is, a complete overhaul in the democratic party's optics will be necessary. Let the republicans have their trifecta, **** the bed, piss off their base, and then swoop in with a project 2033 to massively course-correct. Edited November 7 by Shou7 2
