Let her run. I just want a primary free of dnc interference.
Nothing wrong here.
But… Make her run a primary. Let her run as a regular candidate unchained from Biden and his ancient policy goals.
What the actual fuck are they thinking?!
I think a lot of people here are not taking into account the massive amounts of voter disenfranchisement that allowed Trump to win. In one Texas city 100k black voters were struck off the rolls, which would’ve carried Texas for Harris. In total there were almost 4,5 million legitimate voters who were struck from the rolls or whose votes were simply tossed out, mainly in swing states and almost exclusively for people of color. Harris lost by 3 million votes. 80% of those 4,5M votes would have gone to her and the dems.
Exit polls were pointing towards a Dem victory and they might have even carried both houses if not for the massive voter disenfranchisement. This is the election that was blatantly stolen and it really surprises me so few people in the US even know about it, let alone are outraged by it.
Still I’m not sure the people stricken from voter roles and who missed voting from bomb threats would be enough to make up the like 12mil difference.
I don’t think we are ready to elect a woman as a country yet tbh, too bigoted.
I didn’t know that about texas tho, sucks their citizens let them get away with cheating.
If you want to read up on it, this is a great article about just how bad the voter suppression was: https://sdvoice.info/trump-lost-vote-suppression-won-here-are-the-numbers/
I was about to ask for this. Thanks!
This is false. Peddle your conspiracy theories elsewhere.
We do not have a left wing and right wing in the US. We have a center-right party, the Democrats; and we have the republicans. Any actual left wing ideas are crushed by the billionaires that own the country
actual left wing ideas are crushed by the billionaires that own the country
Worse, they are crushed by the low income voters who would benefit most from their implementation.
This is so true in so many countries. Look at the UK, I wouldn’t call today’s Labour party centre left by many measures anymore.
Dude. They voted for a fuckin Nazi over her. Let’s not do this again.
tbf they would’ve voted for the nazi over anyone
When it looked like she was losing, she just rolled over without any fight. The others side would have fought long and hard. Not her. Just said “Oh, well. That’s it then”. Then she disappeared. Done with her.
Has anyone even asked her where the fuck she went? What could possibly have been more important than resistance against fascism?
Back to her mansion

fight what? the election result?
Yes. The popular vote was a difference of 2%. If she had won instead the Republicans would have rioted
Exfuckingzactly
People are mad enough they’ll vote for anyone that isn’t Trump or a Trump accessory. DNC will take that as vindication that the Harris approach was correct, and will double/triple-down on it for years. Then find some subgroup of lefties to blame when they lose again in another 2-4 years.
It’s the cirrrrrrcle of…stupidity.
You can tell, because they are trying to kick out David Hogg.
You still believe we’ll have a free and fair election in three years?
Thats literally what everyone thought about hillary and about kamala the first time. I wouldnt bet on people’s dislike of trump who at least managed to win twice (somehow) to vote in kamala who has literally neve come close to winning.
She won’t survive primaries. I wouldn’t even worry about this lol.
Bold of you to assume there will be primaries, since those haven’t been conducted in good faith since 2008.
Yeah. Last year the person who won appeared in one debate, lost, and refused to debate again. I don’t really understand what the election is after that mess.
I’ve worried about too many things that have happened recently that I was previously told not to worry about.
The Dems should go even fuller Nazi than the Republicans or they’ll never get elected again!
I’m just thinking back to 2016 when someone got the idea that Joe Biden should run. And somehow nobody could stop it.
2016 was Clinton
… But he did run and he did win?
In 2020 Trump’s approval was so low that Bill Cosby could’ve beaten him.
Biden was a long-time failed presidential candidate even when he was younger and better at speaking. In the same primary election in 2008 where Obama was first and Hillary was second, Biden was a total embarrassment - if I recall he didn’t get a single delegate. But in 2020 he rode the popularity of the Obama administration to the top just like Clinton did in 2016.
The tendency of democratic voters, especially in early primary states to pick some familiar name is completely devastating to Democrat electability. The last candidate to win on his own merits rather than being associated with someone else was Obama and he crushed it. Anyone associated with past administrations needs to be ruled out from the get go because they almost certainly suck.
Another political campaign of Zionist sympathies no matter what anyone says or whether or not it will cost them the election?
This made me mutter “fuck” upon reading the headline. Fuck you DNC! Give the people what they want and stop cramming your shitty candidates down our collective throats!
America is too racist and sexist to vote for her. Don’t get me wrong, trump cheated, but he might not have needed to and those rigged systems are still in place.
I voted for her. I fucking hate her. It has nothing to with her vagina or melanin. She is another corporate elite that will, at the absolute best, change nothing. The democratic party is actively passifying the masses with these barely not fascist candidates so that their pals at the RNC don’t have to worry too much about what happens if the lose.
The two party system is a myth
But you voted for her, there were a lot of people that sat out. She would be way better than trump in every way, even Palestine. Would she have floated the idea of making Palestine a luxury vacation spot after kicking all of the Palestinians out? No, she wouldn’t. That is the only issue that could hold even a little bit of water, and it’s still no contest. If you didn’t vote or voted for trump, you’re a racist at the very least, and probably sexist too.
there were a lot of people who
sat outwere illegally purged from the rollsOh yeah, for sure. He definitely cheated. I’m willing to go there.
Biden and Harris did more to get Trump elected than every protest voter combined
This is a pretty dumb take.
The post comes weeks after Trump suggested the U.S. should take over the Gaza Strip and relocate Palestinians.
The apparently AI-generated video includes depictions of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sunbathing in Gaza, and imagines scenes of destruction in Gaza transformed into a glitzy Riviera-style resort called “TRUMP GAZA.”

The president repeatedly doubled down on his suggestion that nearly 2 million Palestinians should be relocated from battle-leveled Gaza to new homes elsewhere so that the US could send troops to the Strip, take ownership and build the “Riviera of the Middle East.”
“You build really good quality housing, like a beautiful town, like some place where they can live and not die, because Gaza is a guarantee that they’re going to end up dying,” Trump told reporters.

No you misunderstood. You’re boiling the entire issue down to race and sex, which is just absurd. Firstly, Harris retained more male Biden voters than female. And the race thing? I mean, Obama was elected by a massive margin. So you’re either saying a huge number of people have become racist in the past 15 years, or you’re just wrong about it being a determining factor in presidential elections. Are these issues for some people? Of course. Racism and sexism very much exist. But attributing her loss to them is stupid.
Harris couldn’t carry close to a majority of democrats in the primary. In fact she got nearly zero traction. She was almost invisible for four years as vp, and then was shoved into place a few months out from the election. And what does she do with that precious little time? She carts out the fucking Cheney family and says she wouldn’t do anything different from Biden and waffles on the genocide until catching flack, and then said she would push for a ceasefire. And didn’t she basically disappear the last few weeks of the election?
She ran such a terrible campaign while towing the line on Israel. Republicans don’t care. But a good portion of dems and leftists were saying it was a big issue. And how many times have we heard lies from the pulpit? So when she basically came back and said “no seriously I’ll do something!” No one who cares believed her.
So many people who would vote democrats feel entirely betrayed by the party for way too long. And they’re not solving that problem. They continue to lean right to capture “swing voters.”
The right doesn’t have this problem. They’re pushing further and further extreme and the democrats are not offering a legitimate opposition party. Blaming that massive issue on people being “sexist and racist” is so fucking absurd. That is why I said your take is dumb. Because it is so simplistic and off the mark that there’s no nicer word for it.
Genocidal corporate shill has no race nor gender.
Still voted for her above the literal Nazi traitor scum, but let’s not ascribe unwarranted unsavory qualities to the voters. If the democrats had any interest in democracy and held a real contested primary (with or without Biden’s participation), we could have chosen a far better candidate to beat Trump.
The fact that you think she lost simply because of her gender or ethnicity is why the democrats lost in general. The kind of people who care about that were never going to vote Democrat anyway.
Footguns are the only guns mainstream democrats wholeheartedly support.
