Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

[eschatological]

So how will Harris deal with questions regarding her being a living sack of dog shit?

I cant wait to see her in the debate when the "Tulsi" questions get brought up again. I wonder if they can end her political career a second time. I wonder how pence will frame the questions. . . . hmMMMmmmm.

Biden and his campaign team are fucking morons. Utter. Fucking. Morons.

Again, Kamala is vulnerable from the Left.........not so much from the Right. How is Pence gonna berate her for being pro-cop and pro-incarceration as a prosecutor? She'd just respond back, "Oh, and you're not?" and then go on and cite Indiana's draconic awfulness when it comes to policing. And then she'd go on to cite people like the public defender last week who said she was a reform-minded, progressive DA, if she was dumb.....if she was smart (hint: she is), she'd just attack Pence for being a raging fucking hypocrite.

Based on today, he's not. He's going to try to portray her as a radical leftist, just like they've been trying to pain Biden as.

Which should speak volumes about how extreme right they are that either candidate would be considered "radical" in any way, shape, or form.

Man this is too easy. All the hard work of disproving that she's a radical socialist is gonna get done for free by the Tulsi stans, we won't have to lift a finger.

It’s what I’ve been pointing out... The right will attack her as a crazy antifa, while the left will attack her is the same as Trump.

The only pretenders are the ones who think Kamala and "nothing will fundamentally change" Biden will be an improvement over the past decade, and not just the past 4 years. Obama lack of progressive movement despite his rhetoric helped give us 4 years of Trump. I don't care if you think I'm a pretend leftist. I am someone who is vocal, active, and researches before I vote and I don't have to justify my vote to anyone.

Most people who've seen you post probably wouldn't trust you to research your way out of a paper bag with a billion dollar grant and two grad students.

Yeah, but it would give her a huge leg up in the 2024 election. At this point, take victories as they happen.

And republicans will find SOMETHING to rally around. BUT HER EMAILS got Trump into office - and did a LOT of damage as it turns out.

That's a good point. Might as well game the system as much as the GOP has/will.

Yes, it literally has no place in the discussion, but to attack the virtues of the person you responded to. This is just nonsense... /shrug

[cubby]

I was thinking similar.
The difference being that he finishes his term and we get her as our as the presidental pick...who would her running mate be I would wonder then

Gavin Newsom would be perfect - but he's also CA, and that wouldn't fly at ALL. Maybe Pete?

Sorry, you are so far left, that a guy sending military police to grab protestors off the street, is not as bad as... what exactly?

There's a lot of virtues I lack but commitment to my political beliefs isn't one of them.

You can... but, your very next sentence is to claim they are virtue signaling. In fact, not a single one of your posts has had any substance.

[beanman12345]

That's the biggest lie ever told on these forums.

We've had a number democratic platforms that supported Universal Health Care. Biden is already on record a number of times saying he'd veto it.


Progressives is fighting for every inch of every fight to turn our political system. We still have half of Democrats against policies that a majority of their voters support. It's more about not being upset of shammed because someone calls your a communist or socialist. If not for them we wouldn't have Social Security, Civil Right Acts, Medicare, and a whole lot more.

Yeah real progressives fight for each inch. Fake ones don't care if trump wins and defunds social security, medicare, and a whole lot more.

Wall Street executives are glad Joe Biden picked Kamala Harris to be his VP running mate

Wall Street leaders on Tuesday cheered Joe Biden’s selection of Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate in the presidential election. Finance executives, confident the ticket has what it takes to topple President Donald Trump, raved about her experience in government, as well as her fundraising prowess. Financial advisory firm Signum Global is already telling its clients that the choice of Harris reinforces the notion that the Democratic ticket is more moderate than progressive.

(source)

The Democratic Party base is pleased with the selection. Combined with Biden's vow to increase police funding and the selection of California's insanely zealous former top cop who both called out Bidens segregationism and racism and that she believed his rape accusers. Seriously people soak it in, soak in this beautiful moment we are witnessing.

Who are you again? I don't know what trained monkey you paid to slap its genitals on your keyboard but it clearly wasn't one of the smarter ones.

I give you and him all the effort you deserve from me typing on a smart phone. Which is less effort than I'd spend wiping dogshit off my least favorite footwear. Enjoy.

I said... what exactly? I understand the generalities of your disdain, I am asking for substance that lead you to such a conclusion. I personally cannot think of anything in her record, that comes close to unmarked federal police snatching people off the street. Enlighten me...

Nah, but when she does it its Woke and Progressive. [Pelosi Clap Back Gif goes here]

[cubby]

Does it have to be a dude.

IMO, yes, it does. I think going forward, IF Biden wins, the best presidential tickets are going to be male/female, preferably with female at the helm. Given our still-misogynistic tendencies in this country, unfortunately, it's still needed.

I think we need to retroactively make Trump the first attack helicopter president. I even think his supporters would agree...
