"Republicans are nazis and they're integral to our polutical system"
Both of these statements are true.
“Voting for me is voting for republicans to govern” -Kamala Harris
Well at least she makes the decision easy
Voting for Trump? That's a vote for Trump
Non-voting? That's a vote for Trump
Voting for Kamala? Actually a half vote for Trump
That's called harm reduction sweaty, see I only half voted for Trump
“Generic brand: Now we taste just as good as the name brand you love!”
“…wait, why are you still choosing the name brand? I thought you’d appreciate us now!”
kamala wins and passes project 2025 herself to bridge the gap between progressives and conservatives
Lol this is going to happen. Last election charade “critical leftist” did the same thing with Biden and look what happened.
"I'm going to be voting for kamala bc those are the conditions I want to organize under"
I'm putting Republicans in my cabinet and I'm cutting the budget for education and healthcare to fund the police
"More funding for cities... cop cities!"
With comrades like this...
Democrats continuously gaslighting themselves into believing that there's this huge base of "moderate" anti-Trump Republican voters is fascinating
It's the sift of the Democrats into the 2000's Republican party. They are just neocons running the party for neocons.
It really is wild how the democrats entire electoral strategy has been missing off 98% of the country tonappeal to exactly 8 people in the Midwest.
It's really past the point where I can give them the benefit of the doubt and it becomes pretty obvious they'd prefer to lose to republicans than concede to their left.
It's been said around here before (just a little while ago in one of the similar threads. edit: here) that the democrats aren't seeking moderate or republican voters, they are seeking republican donors. Their strategy suddenly makes much more sense when seen through that lens. Even setting that aside though, they would absolutely prefer to lose to Republicans than concede to the left. It's basically the same idea as class solidarity in that they will always be on the side of those who actually share their interests, even if they are in competition with them, rather than side with those who oppose their interests, even when doing so could give them a competitive advantage over their supposed adversaries in an election.
I think one problem not mentioned yet is how much of democrat leadership works closely with republicans throughout their daily lives. These ghouls grow up going to the same schools. They work at the same law firms doing the same internships. Then they get careers where they have to talk to republicans on a daily basis. Sometimes it's on the phone, sometimes it's over meals.
They've stared too long into the abyss. They get used to coming to an agreement with GOP serial killers over what catering to order for dinner, they start thinking it works for healthcare bills.
I do think they're also deliberate in guarding capitalism from leftwing mobs. I haven't said anything new, this is class solidarity manifesting among the bourgeois. I just wonder if there's actual, true believers in "reaching across the aisle" or if it's a cynical ploy to invent reality.
Do libs remember how much they hated Manchin and 
for siding with republicans? Fuck it, let's put the real deal in a position of power. Maybe nominate one for a spot on the supreme court. Oh wait, Obama already did that. bangs head against desk it's never going to fucking change
Not with that attitude 
Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory
I wish someday I could find somebody who loves me half as much as democrats love losing elections.

Ehh..not going to happen, the contradictions are too deep, the emperor isn't just naked, he has a bulging erection with phimosis.

No way, that's actually real?!
Only 100% Hitler can beat 100% Hitler.
Under Biden, the number of US military bases in Norway tripled. Vote for me and we can QUINTUPLE that number! 🥰🥰🥰🥥🌴 #brat
Btw Trump was planning to remove troops from western europe, while the “great atlantic friendship” got restored under biden.
Trump put US troops in Poland so i won't believe that.
Well thats why I said western europe haha
Yeah but zero chance for that too, especially not Germany.
They let her on the View? Even for them that's pretty low.
Boy there was like 2 weeks there where I was worried that I was gonna anhave to vote for ka.ala because the dems were technically doing what I hoped they would and seemed like it made sense to at least acknowledge the effort by biting my tongue and voting foe her.
Really appreciate the last few weeks of making it perfectly clear she's just as bad if not worse than Biden on all her policies.
Good luck with the voting bloc or "people who don't hate Dick Cheyney and want republican cabinet members and aren't already voting republican"
Right?? They dumped Biden, Harris skipped Netanyahu's address, she didn't pick Josh Shapiro as her running mate, it really looked like the Party was capitulating to our demands.
They couldn't even pretend for a full month.
"The failures of the previous democratic administration were because it wasn't bipartisan enough!"
Four years later: "The failures of the previous democratic administration were because it wasn't bipartisan enough!"
"i'm going to run so far to the right of Biden, push Trump out of the way, kick Hitler in the face and throw myself across the finish line into a reactionary Void you can't possibly comprehend"
This is actually great, maybe the morons among us will finally realize that the single biggest threat to socialist/progressive (limp-dick, I know) mobilization in the United States is the Democratic Party.
unfotunately, you have once again overestimated the morons. i know at least one who responded to this with "she's being quoted out of context".
Thank god, just what this country needed. Another...

Thats unfair, it could be Liz Cheney
Kamala was on The View looking for Meghan McCain to offer her a cabinet position, wasn't she?
