i spit on haters Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Pelosi and Obama not endorsing Harris and wanting an open convention. Such a slap in the face. It's not about Harris being "anointed". She's the VP and is, by default, next in line for the presidency. It's that simple. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not American so I don't know much about her aside from her ijboling all the time I'd like to know her political stance on things She's an establishment Democrat who values conventional careerism (Obama, Pelosi) over strict ideology (Clinton, Biden). She's a status quo politician but basically Democrats needed the figurehead of their party to match the median voter being a left-of-center city-dwelling woman of color, not an 80+ year old from rural Delaware who thinks the average cares at all about nonsense like "rebuilding NATO" or "promoting Zionism". She championed harsh policies during her time as attorney general ("top cop") in California but then pivoted to trying to be a progressive in her short time in the Senate. She also entered the 2020 primary trying to be the progressive candidate, and was doing so successfully, but largely spun out after Sanders took young black voters and Biden took older black voters from her, leaving her with no voter base and unsure of how to straddle between appearing progressive and courting centrists. Ex: She co-sponsored Medicare For all (single payer healthcare) in the Senate but then her 2020 presidential primary run saw her put out a "M4A" plan that wasn't single payer at the urging of staffers. Progressives will reasonably take issue with her past views back in the 2000s (ex: "drug use is not a victimless crime", emphasizing violent crime means re-integrating people in jail back into society isn't for all prisoners) while Republicans are crazy and want to call her the n-word and claim she ****** her way to the top (see: Willie Brown). This is basically the most detailed record of her career up to entering the Senate in 2016 from a libertarian-leaning publication good for simple timeline stuff. It though doesn't include her time as VP - some bad (her being thrown under the bus by Biden and forced to follow his right-wing tone on the border), some good (trying to distance herself from the way Biden spoke of Palestinians which her staff often leaked to the press as Kamala finding lacked empathy). This has all been discussed at length in greater detail in the 2024 election thread though. Her 2020 primary run and this 2024 run basically exist in two different universes that cannot be compared and she is in a better electability position now than before, with her now having to rise up to the plate and provide a progressive vision for America vs Project 2025. Biden had to go as he was set to have one of the worse electoral failures in decades Iand this is the only way forward so the DNC better be working in overtime. For balance, also below is a summary on the platform she ran on in 2020 from an outlet like Vox. Edited July 21 by Communion 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ger Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 1 hour ago, bad guy said: Also why did he do this now and not before the primaries so the Democratic base could actually have a say in who they wanted? Now he just makes the party look in shambles. Can the Dems just ever have a leg up in anything this election cycle? That's why it is so laughable to read some statements claiming him as one of the best U.S. presidents in history, sure he is emending errors right now, but he also did some irreparable damage already for being so full of himself and not taking this decision long time ago.

modeblock Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 This is perfectly set up for Taylor to endorse her, and I really hope she does. It's a win for her marketing wise and a win for us if the Swifts show up for The Top Cop 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.R.L Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 I saw it coming , like seriously it's the USA, they deserve someone better, but let me guess, he didn't even write those lies in that letter. 💀 But even so, Kamala, if she wins, she won't only be the first woman as an American president, but also as a woc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
