Well I'd pick one of handful of progressive democrats the Dems have or Bernie but that ain't happening. I'd at least pick Newsom.
Ok. But fuck, if you have to have a cop out, waffle house excuse to say newsom, i have a hard time believing you. Newsome is hard for the fact that hes a "hard D" california govenor and you take a good hit in the swing states. Thats a real liability. Thats fair. Stand by it. Say that. "But Bernie" my ass. Bernie doesnt want it now.
Dont say "oh no" and not have an honest opinion that you arent willing to put your nuts behind. Get on board, or gtfo.
I swear. As a dem, and ill be honest, what pisses me off the most is that we are our own worst enemy. We waffle and push for a vauge replacement with no game plan, and bitch and moan when the answer given "just isnt quite what we want".
We could have had an honest to god game plan a year ago. But we didnt get our shit together. Thats on you, thats on me, and its sure as fuck on the DNC. But we dont have that option now.
Fucks sake. Rant over. Sorry for being frustrated at a two word post and a half baked response. Fuck.
Bro what are you on about. Kamala came in dead last in the 2020 primary. She's has a enormous amounts of baggage like jailing kids and parents for skipping school.
She's more right wing that Biden. Why would anyone vote for diet Republican when they can have the real thing.
Your right. Shes not left enough... might as well vote for trump or skip.
Seriously though. Are you paying attention? We dont get the perfect candidate now.dont shoot yourself in the foot. You're already a locked in voter i assume. If trump was 50/50 with biden, what makes you think he loses with us nit picking? Shes right of biden? Guess who is more right from that. Hope for whitmere or aoc as vp if your feathers are that ruffled. Newsom if you really want. But kamala is the ticket and whining about it loses the election.
Bro you these moral ransom arguments are not going to work when the things you want people to compromise on are genocide and chattel slavery. It's Hilary all over again.
