this is how we get trump to tweet gamergate 3
I can't believe team phijkchu party wins both Canada and the US back to back
We will make sure Rob is banned from more countries than the jews
Their own voters hate her
literally all running her will acomplish is lower voter turnout for dems
Pika kinda said this earlier, but the only reason to bother running Kamala is probably to try to pander to women/blacks/Indians to try to increase their turnout from abysmal to jsut normal bad, compared to Biden
Both are sacrificial lambs at this point, short of Trump dying I don't see him losing, Democratic party just needs to run someone to win enough down-ticket seats to not be completely toothless for 2 years
I actually thought they'd just back off and leave Biden in, because this burns Harris from ever being relevent in politics again, throwing Biden to the wolves is better because his career is over anyway
Replying to Gent #gent_. Because democrats wouldn't get the women and brown people vote anyway
it's a turnout game, I don't think they're right, but if they feel like they have to throw a bone to the retard part of their party, then this is a low-risk way of doing that
I think the play was to put some ideologue up (like Bernie unirronically) to try to shift policy discussion to the left, so in 2-4 years they can run on a slightly more centre platform
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 I actually thought they'd just back off and leave Biden in, because this burns Harris from ever being relevent in politics again, throwing Biden to the wolves is better because his career is over anyway
Well it does two things: Gets Trumps second term over with, and as you say, gets Kamala out of politics.
people were shitting on Vance because he's a "non-strategic" pick, but I can imagine Trump's 2nd term is going to essentially be an administration of only people he feels like he can trust
Pence turning on him, many in his cabinet doing the same, non-stop leaks from the permanent staff that the RNC gave him
The RNC's vested interest is making sure Trump is still \somewhat\ under their thumb
