Marianne Williamson, who ran for president in 2020 and suspended her 2024 campaign in February, has officially reentered the race
Who?
The psychic warrior lady
She was widely mocked for saying "dark psychic forces", but "psychic" just means pertaining to the psyche.
She could have equally said "dark psychological forces".
No, she isn't. She lost in the primary.
There was no primary.
She's advocating for Biden to be replaced in an open convention.
I know. If anything they will nominate someone who shares Biden's views, not some crackpot who barely got any votes.
some crackpot who barely got any votes
She got about 3% of the vote (about the same as Dean Phillips, a sitting congressman and the only other challenger to Biden).
That's nothing, she only got some many because there was barely anyone else running. Again, she does not share Biden's views. No way the Democrats nominate someone who is anti-vaccine.
If the only two challengers only got 3% each, then I'm sorry, but there are no challengers.
Dude, she got branded as a nutjob back in 2020. That's not going away, no matter how unfair it may be.
If the Democrats have a better option, they have two months to find it.
So far, every other Democrat says they're supporting Biden, and Biden said last week that immigrant women are being raped by their sisters (which I expect to be the clip played in Republican ads before the election).
Democratic politicians will publically back Biden without reservation, even as some scheme behind closed doors on ways to get him to just leave already. If those people are successful, they will be just as publically backing their new nominee, and act like they always have been.
It's just politics
If the Democrats have a better option, they have two months to find it.
Party leadership is uninterested in better options.
That's because the billionaire-owned media blacked her out. After the billionaire-owned media overcame their scare with Bernie, they learned that just not ever mentioning a candidate is the best strategy to sink a candidate.
I know about Marianne only because I watch Kyle Kulinski and The Breaking Points.
Marianne would wipe the floor with the establishment democrats if she were allowed to speak to the voters.
Oh, and the DNC never gave her a voter list that she legally purchased from the DNC. They took her money and gave her nothing.
Who funds this lady? This move does nothing but pull off the young liberal, doesn't-understand-consequences-yet, and gets-their-politics-from-tiktok vote.
Lot of people telling lies about the actual state of the Democratic primary in this thread.
Why is some shitty author no one ever heard of who did a debate or two in 2016 being mentioned... Anywhere?
I like Marianne Williamson and would vote for her.
My previous post was removed for being a video (mea culpa). This one is an article.
Yup, this is fine... She's still delusional, but the post is fine. :)
She's still delusional
Maybe, like so many of us, she’s trying to do what she can and she doesn’t see any better option.
