A Kamala presidency:

Weed - Illegal

Xanax - Sold in vending machines nationwide

Best mental healthcare for the public any president has ever done

[–] [email protected] 46 points 8 months ago (2 children)

To get the Xanax you'll need a special ID card, which you will only get if you have a small business.

[–] [email protected] 43 points 8 months ago

My small business is buying Xanax

My small business is selling piss and shit to the local sewage treatment company

remember when she called joe biden racist during one of the debates lol

[–] [email protected] 76 points 8 months ago (3 children)

I almost forgot that it was A DEBATE. IT WAS A DEBATE. hahah A DEBATE.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

Kamala really pulled back the curtain on just how cynically liberals view idpol topics with that.

Really just coming right out and saying "I use race, class, and gender issues as a means of making myself look like I'm fighting for the oppressed, but I ultimately don't care otherwise."

This is exactly why there are so many reactionary anti-idpol "bernie bro" type succdems. They can intuitively sense that Democrats cynically use identity politics as a means of avoiding actually calling for or implementing policy, but instead of blaming the cynical usage, they blame identity politics as a whole.

I wonder if she's any more popular than she was in 2020 when she was the first to drop out of the primary. I don't have any better sense of her as a politician or what her platform would represent compared to Genocide Joe. All she's done across the past three years has been show up to work excessively intoxicated and try to stumble through a speech that would have been unpopular/not important enough for the president to give. Her only vocal supporters are the most unhinged goobers on twitter and there are like 9 of them.

[–] [email protected] 59 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I think we all know that as president she would establish a student loan debt forgiveness program for Pell Grant recipients who start a business that operates for three years in disadvantaged communities.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 8 months ago (1 children)

that's what she promised she'd do, so in actuality she'd do even less

[–] [email protected] 27 points 8 months ago

Politics is about compromise after all

[–] [email protected] 36 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

She'd probably be just another empty vessel for the neocons in the party to puppet. The same evil rhetoric but voiced by a bumbling wine aunt.

All she's done across the past three years has been show up to work excessively intoxicated

Her most relatable trait.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago

That's where I have to qualify it with excessively. Going to work high is praxis because it hurts the employer. Going to work too high becomes self-defeating when it calls too much attention to yourself. There's a comfortable middle ground where she can't be a war criminal but can say a full sentence without laughing and singing half a nursery rhyme.

the wheels on the bus are turning, turning, turning towards freedom

[–] [email protected] 33 points 8 months ago (2 children)

And definitely not coming off...

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago

And most certainly did not just fall out of a coconut tree.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Kamala "I can't speak in public without stage-fright giggles" Harris, leader of the free world.

volcel-kamala

[–] [email protected] 38 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Clearly she (just) needs more propranolol.

Nikki Haley is beating Trump before Kamala

The absolute worst VP choice they could've made back in 2020 and now it comes back to bite them. Pretty much anyone in that field would have a better chance against Trump (with the exception of maybe Warren) than Kamala

[–] [email protected] 46 points 8 months ago (1 children)

We need a Kamala x Hillary ticket. Hillary will be Kamala’s Dick Cheney

[–] [email protected] 43 points 8 months ago

It would be incredibly funny how badly she'd lose to Trump. Hillary would legitimately be a better choice.

Kamala couldn’t beat hitler for President

[–] [email protected] 44 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Well hitler would get more than 50% in Amerika tbh

[–] [email protected] 30 points 8 months ago

lathe-of-heaven "If I had a nickel for every time Donald J. Trump beat a woman in a presidential election, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't much, but it's weird that it happened twice."

not convinced that her mental faculties are in a better state than brandon

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

She seems to just permanently inhabit whatever the Xanax version of Silent Hill is

[–] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago (1 children)

on the plus side, she could hardly be worse

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

Every new president is worse than the preceding

[–] [email protected] 28 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

her staff must have been bugging the shit out of the white house staff

I can just imagine the communications staffer looking over their shoulder at her after writing this and yelling "alright???"

[–] [email protected] 28 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Kamala presidency would likely be funnier than trump fwiw. Zooted to unfathomable levels, just fuckin sloshed 24/7

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago

Barred out cop president would be so fucking funny sicko-wistful

[–] [email protected] 26 points 8 months ago (1 children)

My theory is that the Democrats shoved her aside because they realized she was terrible and had no chance of ever being a presidential candidate, that's why we've barely heard from her except for volcel-kamala and a couple of other disasters when she was actually allowed to speak in public. lol if they're trying her as a viable candidate at this point.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago

Democratic party having a real Ukraine moment if they're drafting her

[–] [email protected] 24 points 8 months ago

Now her I can vote for

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

this NICE LADY over here! kala- ka- kum- ahh i'm sorry... Karlama! she changes my diaper every day jack!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago

She's electable if you vote for her. smuglord

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago

Can't wait to be told I have to vote for her, she's the only viable option, after being told I had to vote for Biden, because he's the only viable option

[–] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago

so 2024 is an election between a corpse and a robot
