It’s a yet annother indictment against America that these two parties are more likely to stoke xenophobia and eventually implement policies of “just shoot em all in the head” than to simply lift sanctions on Venezuela.

 

Looks like my toaster

 

He just got really high, watched I Robot and decided to rip off everything in it

 

Excited for the left to be blamed when she loses

 

There was so much liberal energy. All I can think is in going for swing states, focusing on this was the sound thing to do. Enthusiasm doesn't really matter compared to just winning PA, NC, GA, AZ, NV.

 

Clinton ran this way, and she lost those swing states. Biden ran somewhat to Kamala’s left at least on rhetoric and won those swing states. Obama ran to Kamala’s left and won twice, including North Carolina and goddamn Indiana the first time.

It’s wishful thinking to say she’s running to the right out of electoral necessity and not because it’s just who she is and how she wants to govern.

 

lol, yes, it is absolutely wishful thinking. I'm not pleased about it, I'm just applying cognitive dissonance here.

 

I get it, I phonebanked/canvassed for Bernie twice and AOC her first campaign lol

 

I feel like if anything, this just boosts her numbers of never trumpers, but only in states that are already solidly blue. So there’s no point.

 

This is fucking crazy lol, she’s trying to lose

 

It feels like they're both trying to lose.

 

His solution would just be to pull money from Ukraine and give it to Israel. So I guess that would end things quickly.

 

Day 3 no power. They said all of pinellas county should restored by tuesday the 15th.

Gas is still sparse too.

 

As a backup, she’s trying to secure a position in the Trump administration

 

Man, I really wish Harris wasn’t fucking this up so bad. I know she’s gonna win Colorado pretty easily, so I know my vote would be no where near a deciding one. But I’m having anxiety about the idea of not voting for her and I kind of hate that it’s even bothering me. Like if I don’t vote for president at all or do a third party protest vote it feels stupid but I kind of feel a weird shame just because she’s still the most viable option against Trump.
