Kamala Harris Election Campaign

The Harris Walz ticket gets this correct.
Why are they determined to throw all other female matters under the bus?
You won't try to answer because it is the Inconvenient truth for these terrible candidates.

He doesn't know what is his point.

Whether he and the GOP like it or not, reproductive rights is very, very, very important to women.

Being forced by the government to to bear a fetus for 9 months and give birth to it when you don't want to isn't just a minor inconvenience.

Only a man would attempt to minimize it like Samson is attempting to do.

Hillary Clinton shared a surname with a prior President, so using her first name to differentiate her made sense. There's no Harris to confuse Kamala Harris with, so no reason not to refer to her by her last name, just like Walz.

Oh c'mon. Here in Troit, we plant big loud KAMALA! signs in our front lawns. It's to show enthusiasm and commitment. And solidarity.

It's a black thing. You wouldn't

understand in less than ten seconds. Then it becomes a white thing too.

And a Canbodian thing, to judge from that family down the street's yard sign.

Harris flew all those people in. They were all paid shill actors.

People who are wrong about everything and who's entire personality is "I'm going to be the most insufferable person you've ever met" said so.

That would be a legit concern, but Harris has been on the campaign trail from the beginning, she didn't just step in mid-stream. She's been exposed to all the feedback Biden has, so I personally don't consider that a compelling worry.

Any candidate would be though. For voters that don't have a large preference to specific policies outside party platform, the generalities are fine. If you have a large imbalance between them though, I think the specifics are extremely important. There is only so much political capital a president has to use, like Obama on ACA, Biden on Afghanistan, Bernies if he was elected would have used his on single payer, etc.

Sigh. No she isn't. This is a really stupid thing to say. Though not unexpected given how determinedly you have refused enlightenment.

I quoted multiple policy plans from Harris's own campaign from 2020 in post 626. You post things like "forgive student debt". I can post her medicare for all plan from then. You'll post "expanding the ACA". You can believe these are the same thing all you want, it just doesn't make it reality.
 
Again nobody cares about standards you have for our candidates if you didn't have them until the black woman was nominated.
 
Let's be honest. None of the progressives here give a single flying **** what her actual policies are. All they care about is that she's not Trump. Ineffective moderate? Doesn't matter. Ineffective hardline socialist? Doesn't matter. Anything better than ineffective? Icing on the cake, as long as she gets elected. Effective corrupt scumbag? Doesn't matter as long as it's their scumbag in the Oval Office.

And I get it. I do. Who doesn't get it is voters in swing states, whose votes may well hang on some coherent articulation of Harris's policy plans, which neither she nor her fan club here has seen fit to provide.

An articulation Harris may yet provide. But which her fan club here has already decided anyone is evil and stupid for even asking about. They should hope this attitude doesn't leak out to the swing states.

The issue under discussion was the political prospects of a Vice President. That Bush went on to become President after being VP bears on that issue. Whether he turned out to be a good President does not.

I'm gratified that me knocking out a bit of rhetoric while sipping a beer and waiting for the kitchen to finish my brunch order looks like a herculean effort to people who don't like what I have to say. I promise you, it's dead easy for me.

I’m just against brunch.
Drink in the morning, it’s fine. Don’t pretend that if you eat an omelette the alcohol doesn’t count.

That's TOTALLY NOT TRUE.

I care very much that Harris is PRO-CHOICE, PRO-UNION, PRO DEMORACY, PRO UKRAINE, ANTI-PUTIN, PRO MIDDLE CLASS, AGAINST MORE TAX CUTS for the wealthy. Against RACISM. AGAINST DISCRIMINATION BASED ON SEXUALITY, Against censorship and book burning/banning, For improving healthcare access for all, For lower prescription prices, For better education for our children, For maintaining Social Security and taking care of our Seniors. And so on and so on!

Is this a simplification of what her positions are? Yes. But the fact is Trump and the GOP are on the other side of all these things. Every single one of them. We could get in the weeds. But what is the point?

I despise Trump. He was trash as a President, he was trash as a business man, he is trash as a human being. Trump belongs in prison. But even if he wasn't the POS he is, and the GOP had chosen some other right wing nut, I would still be supporting Harris and Walz.

"I'm an edgy little nihilistic who thinks nothing matters so anyone who cares about anything is really faking it" is a big part of a certain someone's personality, this isn't news.

This might resonate better if it wasn't from somebody with a record of reflexively labelling anybody running against Trump as the greater evil.
 
Again people in case you aren't noticing it we're not falling for it anymore and we're not playing the game on your terms anymore.

We have two choices; a psychopathic manchild who has declared his intent to end democracy and a functional adult.

All of your "Let's talk about everything wrong with the functional adult" histrionics are just sad and transparent at this point.

And again my standards response to any "Durrr who is this directed at" trolling is anyone who wants to slip the shoe on.
 
It gets a little speed boost for anybody on the side of politics that's already deranged in general.

Ironically, after the highlighted opening, it's difficult to find anything 'honest'.
 
Let's keep the thread about the topic, which is President Harris and her first term's campaign, and not let it be dragged by some posters into being about them. No matter how badly they want attention.
