    I can believe this. She seemed frustrated when she spoke about the Palestine situation, and I picked up a strong subject that she wanted to say more about her objections over Israel’s actions than she did.

      Yeah, but that didnt bode well for her as a president…

      She was the candidate, crowned with zero primary weeks before the election, with zero threat of being replaced.

      But she stuck line by line to what Bidens team said

      Buden’s team that was Hillary’s team, and before that Bill’s team.

      Kamala would have been an empty suit for the same neoliberal machine and she would have appointed the DNC chair back to that faction so they could influence the primary in four years.

      If Kamala literally had to say exactly what her advisors said when she was literally irreplaceable, she would have been a president in name only.

      Don’t get me wrong, I held my nose and voted D like always, but I knew she was fucking it up, and long term that might have been for the best.

        Tim Walz came out swinging, and they instantly sidelined him.

        That alone was enough to say that the campaign was fucked.

          Quick, hide Tim Walz, he’s too popular with voters!

          -Neoliberals apparently

          I still want Ken Martin to publicly commit to ending the Victory Fund bullshit tho.

      Kamala was somewhat of a Zionist, but not enough to justify Israel’s bombings. Because she wants a two-state solution, and if she had been president, she would probably criticize Netanyahu for his actions damaging Israel.

      A strategy to avoid AIPAC considering you a threat.
