hahahaha! god their even more stupid than I thought. maybe they should go look for other candidates. Seems like half the country doesn't want a women as president. They sure as heck don't want a person of color either.
Gender or race had nothing to do with her losing, she's a right wing POS posing as a progressive
Alternate take: She was told to move to the right by advisors. Politics is nasty business.
That was bad advice then -- the right already have a party, and it isn't the Democratic one.
The rich are never happy with one of anything.
Cops are always right wing
and AGs are not cops. Stop repeating the propaganda designed for morons to repeat ad nauseum
She locked up people, she was a fucking cop
You have quite the hole in your understanding of how this system works. No.
No
Glad we agree
Her pattern this campaign was the same as her pattern in the primary, start out as a mainstream progressive talking about changing the system and fighting Republicans, then after getting phone calls from donors and listening to establishment advisors abandon it all for overly restrictive benefit programs and empty words. Almost every time she said something good she'd walk it back over the next week.
This doesn't mean she should try again but finally buck her advisors and be her true self. Her deference to the sensibilities of rich donors is part of who she is.
Nah, the bigot vote isn't nearly as important as the fact that people are sick of establishment politicians. People want change and they see that in Trump but not in Harris.
I don’t think that’s the reason. He’s already served as president and his kid is the RNC co-chair. He is the immediate family of the co-chair of the republican establishment.
I don't disagree with what you're saying, but does the average American voter see it this way, or do they judge him based on his demeanor and the things he says?
But he sometimes says what people want to hear in the middle of an incoherent rant. Trying to cover him the first time was ... about as one might expect. Now, it's just depressing.
The editor in me has so much to say about that.
