The silver lining of 2024 is watching Kamala’s entire political career implode from her own hubris. She’s now resigned to HRC hot-potato status that only further polarizes the Dem base.
If the Dems had any sense they’d be distancing themselves from her entire campaign, indefinitely.
Unfortunately the democrats have no sense, which is why they have ghouls like hillary clinton continually floating around in the background even after she lost against a clown and everything she touches turns to shit.
They have sense- sense to understand that they don’t need to win. With the GOP as a boogeyman, they know that even more donations will come in, and they don’t actually have to govern, or produce any kind of effective legislation. It’s why even when the Dems control the majority of the House, nothing gets done, and why there are always just enough Dems willing to cross to Republican positions to defeat any real progress.
They’re just Controlled Opposition at this point, and that probably started in the 90s with Clinton and sucking the Corporate teat with gusto. Even now, we have crones like Pelosi at 84 fucking years old who refuse to do anything other than punch downward at her own party members. The entire party needs to be scrapped.

That was the silver lining on her FIRST presidential run, but the DNC didn’t let it happen then and probably won’t now.
A woman of color representing several different groups of people and who will pretend to be progressive sometimes but always change her mind into whatever the donor-determined party line is?
She’s catnip to a Dem leadership desperately trying to compensate for not caring about the working class by pretending that optics equal substance 😮💨
Up north here in Oregon, our Democratic leaders are pretty much the same. They have quite literally argued that housing isn’t a solution to homelessness and instead just have police bust up their camps and push them down the road to do it all again in 3 months.
Voters passed a law to pump a bunch of funding into rehab centers rather than constantly arresting and releasing people for addiction issues, and they refused to disperse any of the funding. After a few years of this, they pointed to the lack of progress as a reason to overturn the law and pump all that money into policing and prisons.
They’ll dole out money for homeless services but only give it to church-run shelters who then impose faith based rules upon their guests which cause many of them to sleep on the streets instead.
They refuse to fund mental health services to the point where we have little more than a couple dozen beds available in the entire state for people experiencing psychiatric emergencies and those that do make it in only stay a few days before getting kicked right back out on the streets.

I actually heard she’s aiming for a governor spot.
Let me guess, California
She’s better than the homeless people’s possessions destroying turd they have now
No she isn’t. They’re cut from the same cloth.
