holy fuck, she literally does support the wall

[-] [email protected] 62 points 8 months ago

She supports everything Trump supports she just couches it in therapy language

[-] [email protected] 48 points 8 months ago

Well, yeah. She's a cop.💁

[-] [email protected] 58 points 8 months ago

Note that she admits obama-sad was the one who started it. Then Trump wanted to ramp it up. Now she wants to look non confrontstional in building more and basically puts some meritocracy bs to immigration "you have to earn it."

No discussions of the consequences of our foreign actions and that directly leading to these waves of refugees.

I really want a reporter to ask why we don't melt the Statue of Liberty if that is what they truly believe and want wrt to immigration now. Obviously the give us your tired, your poor, yearning to be free banter is not what the parties stand for any more. It'd be political suicide suggesting the destruction of a national icon, but I kind of want them to fall on their own sword with this.

if we melted it down we would have enough metal to make a whole lot of child cages

[-] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago

Here lies the hungry, the tired, the poor, that yearned to be free of our oppression.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 8 months ago

Ripping the copper walls off the statue of liberty along with the rest of the wiring. Real 2024 capitalism hours.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 8 months ago

Bill Clinton started it under Operation Gatekeeper.

There were iterations of walls for decades. They all just kept it going.

That is incredibly surprising of Vanderbilt child and former CIA intern, Anderson Cooper to call her out. It's a shame the pressure didn't lead to her head doing something that took them both out. wowee

Remember AC is a Vanderbilt.

But phew she's squirming. Imagine how much imposter syndrome you feel when you genuinely are a complete fool asked to do something very public and complex like run for president.

[-] [email protected] 42 points 8 months ago

It can't be that hard:

"So, WDYMP, you have been a vocal supporter of communism."

"Yep"

"And part of that involves breaking up big tech companies"

"For sure. Fuck those guys."

"How do you propose to do that? Do you have a plan?"

"Unions, Anderson. I'd get like 5 unions out of Google to talk to already existing unions."

"So you would just have the people working there... take over the-"

"Yeah, the means of production, Anderson."

Hahahahahahahaha How The Fuck Is Getting Fact Checked Real Hahahaha Comrade Just Believe In Something Real Like Comrade Just Get Counseling From The Union Haha

bazinga (wrong Cooper, deal with it) "You don't think it's stupid anymore?"

contextphobic "He's stupid for not accomplishing anything on the project, which is stupid, that I fully support and will do better than him!"

torment wowee explosion

[-] [email protected] 28 points 8 months ago

Absolute children are competing for presidency

[-] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago

It would be funny if we started using Sheldok Cooper to refer to Anderson Cooper whenever he comes up.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago
[-] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago

That's effectively what she said. When Anderson Cooper tried to get her to clarify if she meant she wanted to build a wall, she replied "We need a stronger border"

[-] [email protected] 14 points 8 months ago

cursed-woog

Well that could mean a lot of things, but they're all bad.

Not as a direct quote (it is way closer than it should be..). More of a poetic license to highlight the absurdity of ~1:30 onward from the video

[-] [email protected] 44 points 8 months ago

Holy shit, if the Dems lose, they have no one to blame except themselves. This should be the easiest election ever, but they constantly squander it.

[-] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago

I've been saying to people since biden dropped out that a lot of his terrible campaign staff was directly transferred to her. Not to underestimate their ability to fuck this up.

If she literally even supported conditioning aid to Israel and focused on abortion this would be a slam dunk.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 8 months ago

This should be even easier than 2016 was, because back then, Trump was still new. Now, he's already been president, he's incredibly unpopular, he had a fucking felony conviction, and there's MUCH less enthusiasm for him from the Republican base.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago

It's even worse because a lot of the Labour campaign staff hopped across the pond to do a shit job for the Dems as well

[-] [email protected] 24 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

The Shitlib International nato-cool

[-] [email protected] 41 points 8 months ago

On the plus side, if they've now adopted "build the wall", we might only be eight years away from "lock her up" being official dem policy.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 8 months ago

They are on a fast track to rehabilitating Trump before the election is even over. If Trump wins they'll be all civility and bi partisan. They are locking themselves into helping him with anything he wants rather than be you know..an opposition party for 2 years and then lame ducking him for the last 2 after 2026.

[-] [email protected] 38 points 8 months ago

Omg we're genuinely going with "hahaha do you remember how funny Trump was eight years ago hahahaha"

[-] [email protected] 36 points 8 months ago

you're telling me the candidate that couldn't even lead the primary in the state that elected her is doing poorly? anya-heh

I truly believed "anyone but Hillary" could rout trump on an election without too much trouble, but this is extreme loser energy, I can't believe how over it is. any swing state hog that they imagine who they were trying to triangulate with this is just gonna be like "wow that's smug as hell, I'll just vote for trump so I don't have to listen to that crap".

Once again, it's to be expected when you bring a bunch of loser clinton advisors on to your campaign. Where tf are Obama's people? At least he won?? Just lie like he did it's not hard hooolllly shit. Everything they do is to try and grab Republicans and they sieck so so bad at it.

[-] [email protected] 33 points 8 months ago

Just lie and say you're so progressive, Jesus christ. That worked for Obama. He won under the biggest landslide the democrats have seen in a long time.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 8 months ago

The problem is that the party leadership already planned the future of the party back in 2006 and their blueprint was Hillary, Obama winning didn't change the plan

Does she even count as "anyone but Hillary"? She's basically Hillary but less charismatic.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago
[-] [email protected] 35 points 8 months ago

She’s so fucking awful

[-] [email protected] 32 points 8 months ago

I wish she would start to imitate Trump's way of speaking. She should be saying that the problem with Trump's border wall is that many people are saying that it was a bad wall. Many, many people. And they know - they are wonderful people - they know he had an awful, terrible plan for that wall. The worst.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 8 months ago

So the only issue she had with the wall was that Trump said he'd make Mexico pay for it.

[-] [email protected] 26 points 8 months ago

So her actual issue is that trump didn't go far enough with building the shitty wall

[-] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago
[-] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago

Is she taking campaign advice from chat GPT? What the fuck???

[-] [email protected] 17 points 8 months ago

All she had to do was not say what she really wants to do.
