Maybe. I’d prefer we give her a year or two to see how progressive she’s going to be. We’re forced to work within the Democrat party for now, and if we’re seen as a bunch of malcontents, centrist Democrats will see that as an excuse to reach out to more “gettable” moderates and conservatives instead

Biden calling Trump voters garbage was a gaffe. His own office walked it back. It’s way easier to depart from the president on a throwaway line than on a year-long policy that an all-too-large and ignorant chunk of the population still supports.

I’m not satisfied with her public position on Gaza so far, either. But, since the notion that Trump will make anything better is ridiculous, the only plausible course is to get her in office and then pressure the shit out of her.

And in case anyone’s thinking it, the idea that Jill Stein successfully spoiling into a Trump victory somehow means he’ll take her foreign policy advice is magical thinking.

I agree. I’m just hoping they’ve made the calculation that remaining ambiguous on Gaza is a better electoral strategy, and once in office she doesn’t intend to spit in the faces of her base the way Biden has.

It’s her or Trump, and there’s zero chance Trump will make things better, so anyone who cares about Gaza and has a realistic outlook on the situation should support Harris.

Can’t remember at the moment what it’s called, but there’s a law making it illegal for the US to support war crimes. If the president ceased aid to Israel on those grounds, congress would have to be unusually united to override it. Not saying it couldn’t happen, but it’d be a difficult fight to pick when Israel is being so brazenly genocidal.

Easy, they refuse to believe her.

After all, if she didn’t sow discord by pointlessly undermining the president while an essentially powerless Vice President, she must love genociding brown people even more than Trump does somehow.

Yeah, being in a “president or prison” situation will do that.

Every day I try to remember to be grateful that, even though he’s evil, Elon Musk is also pretty dumb.

The US Green party is fully captured. Their presence in any state-level offices has fully waned under Stein. They have no power to affect change anywhere anymore and exist only to spoil.

Is it, though?

They aren’t here to punch Hitler apologists in the face.

This won’t be popular with the North Korean people. Kim’s approval rating might drop as low as 99%.

“Fuck em, I got mine.”

I guess it’s a form of cope to keep on hoping the polls are very, very wrong and it’ll actually be a blowout. It’s disheartening that so much of the country appears to have lined up behind him.

Already voted, by the way.

It’s the first amendment, stupid.

I think if finding someone who can fill Trump’s shoes was easy they’d have done it for this election. DeSantis had a lot of the GOP establishment behind him and he fell embarrassingly flat. Maybe they’ll find someone, but it’s easier said than done.

You’re not wrong, but a Republican party without the blind fanaticism of Trump’s personality cult is significantly less scary. And, hopefully, less free to push whatever blatantly fascist policies they feel like with no electoral consequences.

Idiots Right-wingers will assert that George Soros is, no evidence wanted or needed.

Honestly, is there anyone alive today with more blood on their hands than Benjamin Netanyahu?

Chris Sawyer is a madman.
