It's been a delight watching them flail uselessly. They knew they might have Harris as an opponent from the instant someone as old as Biden selected her for VP. They've had all this time to do oppo research and focus group what is likely to stick.

All their arguments against Biden evaporated into nothingness the instant he bowed out and they are completely unprepared to run against Harris.

They counted on Biden being a stubborn idiot and staying in the race and didn't have a backup plan.

From a Politico article, we can see how the Russians are starting to talk about Harris. The Republicans aren't usually far behind...

“Kamala with the nuclear button is worse than a monkey with a grenade,” Andrei Sidorov, the dean of the global politics department at Moscow State University (a once highly respected institution) said Sunday evening on state television’s prime weekly talk show.

Edit: and then there's this: Unhinged Republican candidate calls Kamala Harris a “little wh*re” as GOP descends into misogyny

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

That's racist. Yeah, that's exactly the sort of rhetoric Repubs like to pick up.

Oh yeah, there's also "She never had kids!"

There will be quite a few Muslim allegations as well, for reasons. Which is funny, considering she has history with nearly everything besides Islam.

Oh yeah, probably. Has the GOP ever really sorted out their racist talking points about Indians (from India, not Native Americans)?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

Oh, some of them are certain to be confused and make racist comments about Native Americans too.

Considering the complete lack of backlash against the commentators who disparaged Vivek this year, they’ve definitely got a handle on it.
