Are you familiar with the term "political theater"?
It's where a politician says one thing and makes a big show about something, and then does the opposite.
Why would anyone be scared of the geriatric lame duck president yelling at them?
And why didn't this administration reverse Trump's tax cuts for the rich or actually do a damn thing about it?
You're being lied to and you're believing it.
And Kamala is so pro corporate that she is one of the biggest and most effective proponents of California's prisoner slave labor.
Who do you think it's using this prison labor? Who is the beneficiary of not having to pay their workers?? Could it possibly be the giant corporations that run American???
Acting like I'm the one that doesn't know what I'm talking about is laughable.
It sounds like you have very little knowledge of any political theory. The basis of democracy is that power HAS TO come from the will of the people. The people exist first, and then we make government. It's not like someone set up a tent in the middle of a field and people come up and apply to be governed.
If a party is losing elections like this, then it means that they are not representing the will of the people. That means that they are failing at their job, which is to represent and execute the will of the people.
Why else would we pay taxes and give a huge portion of our money to the government? Remember, taxes come from us. The US Government doesn't magically just have unlimited money. They get money from us, and they are supposed to spend how we tell them to.
You're talking like we have some sort of set ruling class, and all of us little peasants failed our lords and ladies because we didn't vote hard enough for them.
That's an extremely authoritarian view of government that borders on being pro aristocracy. Kind of like feudalism.
Acting fed up with me and like you're so much smarter than me that you can't even explain your position is such an amateur attempt at covering up your own lack of knowledge.
Do better.
No it wasn't good enough.
Harris offers essentially the same platform as Trump.
I know that's going to upset y'all, but she wants the same things but with a different aesthetic.
Looking at her immigration policy tells you most of what you need to know about her. Look at her stance on the genocide. Look at her stance on the environment and fracking. It's all the same as Trump.
So yeah, you're goddamn right it's not good enough.
Are you forgetting that she was in office when she said she was going to make a ceasefire? Why didn't she do it then? Where was that?
And show me her plan to tax the rich. She is a blatantly pro corporate candidate.
And they just threw the weed thing in there at the end because it was becoming very obvious that her platform was massively unpopular. She famously was super hard on people being arrested for marijuana charges when she was a prosecutor.
You're doing a whole lot of assuming there. I absolutely vote in the primaries.
Accusing me of wanting Trump in office is just dead wrong.
This is why the DNC fails. Y'all instantly attack anyone that doesn't "fall in line" and immediately alienate them.
It's honestly a bit pathetic that you can't even hear any criticism of the party.
A McCarthyist says what?
Ugh. This is such a toxic attitude.
Dissent is a good thing. Criticizing yourself is necessary to prevent rot.
Claiming that anyone that disagrees with the party lines is a Russian or a Trump supporter is insane and smacks of McCarthyism.
Nah. I actually listened to what Harris said in the debate and I read what little of her policy was available.
She was basically running on the same platform as Trump. She offered stronger crackdowns on immigration than Trump, she said was more pro fracking than Trump, she said she supports Israel (genocide) more than Trump. She completely dropped universal healthcare from her platform, she she completely abandoned anything that would help climate change.
That's why I didn't vote for her.
I didn't want Biden either.
I don't know if y'all remember this, but the DNC decided to forgo a primary and forced Harris on us. When she ran in 2020 during the primary, she was so unpopular that she dropped out before any votes were cast.
Why did anyone ever think she would win? It's almost identical to when the DNC put Hilary up against Trump.
You can only fool me with this "lesser evil" bullshit so many times.
The answer is capitalism. This is a direct result of capitalism.
Holy shit.
You could not be more incorrect on more levels if you tried.
How exactly was Harris trying to put out this fire again? By welcoming the war criminal Dick Cheney into the party with open arms? By arguing with Trump that she's more pro fracking and pro genocide than he is?
Harris's platform offered zero solutions to anything. Her entire thing was "brat vibes" and also I support the corporate powers that be even harder than Trump does. She was literally offering a harder border policy than TRUMP.
I'm not exactly sure what you think she was saving us from.
