    Biden just pardoned a judge convicted of taking bribe money in exchange for sending children to “troubled kid” abuse camps. Tim Walz tweeted a condolence about the billionaire that was justifiably executed for his widespread torture of poor people. Kamala’s a cop.

    Democrats, you’ve radicalized me. Like there’s gonna BE a vote allowed for mouthy queer people in four years LOLOL

    “She is ending this race in a very different place than other nominees that have lost,” one Harris adviser told the outlet. “Her approval is higher. People were very happy with the race that she ran.”

    Jesus fucking Christ. They’ve huffed their own farts too hard and gave themselves some kind of brain damage. Or they’re just greedy fucks that want to raise a billion dollars for exorbitant campaign expenses paid to their friends and acquaintances.

      They also think that running a campaign that lost is somehow a win? Are these campaign managers fascist double agents trying to poison the only viable opposition? Seems like it.

    They really are kinda stupid. They don’t get how unpalpable she can be. They are clearly not learning from their mistakes.

    JFC how is this the takeaway

    some Democratic party aides believe Trump – who, among other things, overcame a criminal conviction and other such charges to win – has sufficiently overturned the norms of losing White House candidates’ not attempting a second bite at the proverbial apple to give Harris the opportunity of a repeat bid in 2028, this time for the full cycle.

        The path forward is clear. Kamala needs to cultivate a cult of personality so rabid that it forces all democrats to toe the line. Super easy. Especially on the left.

        At this point I don’t think this can even be explained by incompetence. It has to be malice.

    I was expecting them to announce that they’re now “Blue Maga” and run the oldest, whitest old white man who isn’t Biden.

      Resurrection isn’t quite viable yet or they’d pull up Regan and run him as a “Democrat.” They’d do anything to avoid actually helping people over bankers so I guess they’re settling on “let Kamala lose again and we can blame “woke,” and the general population for being misogynistic. What’s 4 more years of deregulation? My bank account will be fine!”

      Good ol’ fashioned DNC scumbaggery

    Well, looks like I am finally leaving the Democrat party. I was only registered Democrat to vote in the primaries but they don’t seem to mean shit anymore and the party seems incapable of learning a lesson.

    can we stop with the ancient politicians already. jesus fucking christ.

    the democratic party is actively working to fuck the american population over. its like the want to fulfill the ‘both sides are the same’ argument

    • There’s a glimmer of hope that a couple really old, powerful Democrats will die or retire in the next four years, and we’ll see some policy change.

      I’m starting to dislike Pelosi nearly as much as conservatives do. I mean, I haven’t thought much of her for years, but my opinion is turning more vitriolic.

      I still think Moscow “Pale Man” Mitch is the architect of evil, but we expect that from conservatives. Nancy’s been especially naughty in the past few years.

      “It is the voters who are wrong. We just need more podcasts to show we are actually smart for upholding a system that fails to address the suffering of Americans!” 2028 CHANGE NOTHING AND HOPE FOR A WIN!

      Edit: I am not for the dismantling of the govt., but we do need a massive overhaul to remove the corruption (lobbying and life time appointments) and create a better system that will actually represent the American populace.

      Kamala was running on hope and upholding Biden’s agenda with a few tax breaks. Based off the popular vote, that was not enough for the majority of voters.

        I mean the voters were factually wrong. But that doesn’t matter because all that matters is that they lost the election.

      She raised the most donations they’ve ever seen. They’re not masochists, just greedy, and they care more about making money than winning.
