they talk, but don't act

The main messaging from the Harris campaign seemed to consist of:

  • the economy is fine
  • immigrants are fentanyl carrying criminals and we need to build the border wall
  • fracking good
  • war good (continued expansion of Israel, keep arming Ukraine instead of pushing for a diplomatic resolution, and let's invade Iran next with the most lethal fighting force in the world)
  • what, do you want a DANG CHEETO in the white house?

They don't walk the walk of a pro worker party, but they sure as shit don't talk the talk either.

when the hell did the dem party become the party of lethal military, border wall and fracking? It's like they wanted to alienate their base.

And right on cue, they admitted that the 30-day humanitarian aid deadline for Gaza was a lie. I mean we knew it was, since the deadline was conveniently after the election, but it was still an insult.
