She was given many opportunities to do this when she was Vice and actively refused then was disrespectful about it when she was protested for it. People don’t forget that kind of blatant slap in the face. This “effort” if real is going to be far too late for many.
She thought neoliberals would accept her, that she was Biden’s VP pick because she was being groomed to be a leader.
She wasn’t, she was just there to make the Biden ticket not a blank piece of copy paper. She was never intended to get the last nomination, but by a fluke she got it handed to her.
The neoliberals will (already have really) pivot to Newsom, so she’s trying desperately to rebrand herself as progressive after actually saying:
You asked me what is the difference between Joe Biden and me — that will be one of the differences. I’m going to have a Republican in my Cabinet,
Like, she tried to move the window right from Biden…
Brother the fucking primaries havent evem started and you’re starting with the ‘you dont get to vote for who you want’ shit. You keep giving them cover they’ll keep using it to lose elections. Kamala lost every swing state and has never won a single primary delagate via ballot and you’re acting like shes inevitable? Kick rocks.
True, but this far before the election there should still be momentum for someone further to the left than Newsom.
Another four years of a centrist Democrat is just stalling for four years before the Heritage Foundation manages to install another Republican on the backs of American transphobes and racists to push the country even further away from where it needs to be.
My hope is that 4 more years of a centrist in the White house will give the far left a chance to make their case… Mamdani is a great example of that case… Steady progress is going to win…
As I’ve said before, were a center-left country. Regardless of what’s best, that’s the best we’re going to do until people get educated on the subject…
SO show up and vote in the primaries I will too. but if your guy doesn’t win, don’t accelerate the fascist victories by getting your panties in a bunch and staying home.
Hey I’m excited about the state of Democratic socialists winning. If one shows up on the general ballot in Virginia I’ll gladly vote for them.
But if I have to choose between a centrist and someone like trump, I’m gonna choose the centrist every time. Sometimes the lesser of two evils is quite a lot less fucking evil apparently.
You do you, I’m done holding my nose to vote and I absolutely will never vote for Republican light, controlled opposition establishment Democrats. I think many people agree with me.
An enormous group of what used to be the Dem base is absolutely right there with you. More than enough to destroy the DNC if they dont pull their heads out of their asses.
Well know who to blame when trump light makes it in in 2028. It will all be on you.
ShredderrFeeder, I’m not voting for genociders of either party. I’ll write in a third party name or leave my presidential vote blank. Its my vote, not yours, and I dont take criticism from people I dont respect. I dont respect people with your half assed helpless hostage logic. Feel free to cry or have a tantrum on the floor if it makes you feel better.
It’s not blind devotion, it’s self preservation. It’s “Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good”
This is a center-left country, that’s a fact. Would I vote for AOC for president in a primary? Absolutely. If she doesn’t win am I going to throw up my hands and give up? Hell no.
Seeking to punsh the country because your guy / girl didn’t get in is childish.

She sure as shit ain’t peogressive
Feel free to walk away and make sure another fucking republican fascist takes over…that will make everything better…
Do I want someone better? yes. If she’s on the ticket am I going to vote for her? Also yes, hell fucking yes.
Anyone with a D next to their name gets my vote this year, I’m not fucking around.
Forty years of lesser evils have got us where we are.
No…just a few years of people not showing up is what got us here.
You chose more evil over less evil. Not voting is choosing to let other people decide for you. It’s an abdication of responsibility.
Nope. It’s been decades of kabuki by the uniparty and people like you scolding the rest of us to vote blue no matter who.

You were tricked. Deal with it.

I follow one rule - vote the furthest ‘left’ in every election, but VOTE.
Last thing I’m going to do is stay home and allow the fascists another 4 years to destroy this fucking country.

That’s literally what we’ve been doing and it hasn’t ever worked out like that.
When Dems don’t do enough, people go back to voting R.
SO show up and vote in the primaries I will too. but if your guy doesn’t win, don’t accelerate the fascist victories by getting your panties in a bunch and staying home.
Garbage. We see how establishment dems react to progressive primary winners.

There’s only one party. The money party.
I think you’re lying when you say you vote in every election
Nope. I vote in every single election. There may not be someone I want to vote fore, but there is always someone I want to vote against.
Every. Single. Election.
Since 1988. I’ve never missed one.

And this is how they keep getting worse, blind devotion with no risk of consequences. The VBNMW cult is worse than MAGA

And how does not voting help?
I’m not the one with blind devotion. I’ll vote for someone I don’t like to keep someone I positively hate out of office…
