      Yeah, damning how she locked up fewer people than her predecessors and how the “she locked up 1500 people for weed” thing is a blatant lie?

          Oh sugar…

          Amidst the dichtomous choice that presents itself, I’m going to go out on a limb and say if you don’t like that, then you certainly won’t like what Trump has in store for you.

            It’s not about my vote. She’s unelectable. Putting her in as the nominae would be handing it to Trump. Same way the DNC handed it to him in 2016 by putting in Hillary.

              Right, the most progressive candidate we’ve ever had is unelectable. For a thing the administration she was part of decriminalized.

              That doesn’t make sense.

                But they didn’t though? Gonna vote for Kamala either way but you don’t have to lie. At best the administration she was part of nicely suggested that we should reschedule it to a lower but still very criminal schedule 3. Please don’t give them credit for shit they didn’t even do, or promise to do.

                  I did think they got it lower than that. But schedule 3 can be prescribed and some are available behind the counter at the pharmacy. So it’s a way better position than it was.

                    I’m glad you’re getting upvoted for a blatant lie while my correction of that lie is getting downvoted, and now that you’re admitting it was bullshit all along you leave it there unedited to mislead more people. Great job. Look, I hate Trump as much as the next guy, but you don’t see making up reasons to lick boot.

                Right, the most progressive candidate

                Exactly. She has to win not just in the deep blue progressive states. She also has to win the competitive states. She can’t just coast to a victory; She has to actually compete against Trump. ~~~~

                If “most progressive” was something that the swing states voted for, they wouldn’t be swing states; they would be blue. “Most progressive” will win her the popular vote, and lose the election. Just like it did with Hillary.

                Contrast with Mark Kelly, a solid blue candidate with a known record of being able to win in red states. Kelly would poach votes from Trump, turning the competitive states blue, and some of the red states competitive.

                  You’re confusing “most progressive candidate” we’ve ever had with “democratic socialist”.

                  Mark Kelly is a great politician but he would be starting from behind her on this. Newsome who was already prepping for a 2028 run would be the more logical choice if you want to replace Harris.

                    Harris is a lawyer turned politician. Kelly is a fighter pilot turned test pilot turned Navy Captain turned Astronaut turned Senator, with an identical twin brother with a nearly identical career, and a wife who survived an assassination attempt.

                    You can’t swing a dead cat Trump’s toupee in DC without hitting a dozen lawyer-turned-politican Democrats.

                    Kelly might be starting from behind but he has every advantage here.
