    Its funny right, because her first point is valid, but she’ doesn’t address the fact that there was a literally ARMY of media and online sycophants defending Joe Biden staying in the race. That wall of cowards is actually what prevented us from having a real primary, or getting Biden to step down, when even going back to 2023, he had almost no chance of winning the race.

    Its also telling that there was no mention of Harris’s Gaza position. Her disdain for Muslim/ Arab voters. Obama’s condesension towards black male voters. Harris’s clear step to the right and adopting of neo-conservatives into the campaign. The refusal at the DNC to give a Gazan a microphone and allow them to be a part of the party. It should be pretty obvious to most people right now why Harris is struggling (this should not be a close race), and no, its not because she picked Waltz as a VP.

      Even when it’s the “most important election ever”, they don’t just pull out all the stops to ensure it’s a shoe-in - they try to finesse it down to a hair, and get away with 99% of the bastardry of the other guy.

      Exactly the same thing here in Australia, every single fucking time. And 90% of the time, they lose.

        What complete and utter horse-shit. This level of stupid thinking is why Trump is even still allowed to be in the race.
