      lol what the fresh hell is this take.

      I heard this in some particularly leftist areas of the internet back in 2020 when Biden tapped her for VP. It’s not good, that’s for sure.

      Some people even dug deep into her case record and found some really old cases they didn’t like. It’s just an attempt to keep the flames going against the DNC.

      Harris is probably going to be the best candidate the DNC has nominated since 2008. I am personally thrilled.

        Clinton and Biden aren’t exactly a high bar to clear.

        Yeah in 2020 I didn’t like “Top Cop” Kamala Harris because that’s literally how she was marketing herself! I think 4 years in the VP seat have given her a lot of valuable experience with the job and I’m willing to be swayed by arguments that she’s moved leftward and softened on some of her policies regarding incarceration and crime. Sometimes seeing how the sausage is made, then getting some distance and perspective on things, can cause a person to turn their views around.

        Anyway, at this point I’d much rather engage with the Top Cop prosecutor who at least seems to believe in the idea of law and society, over “Day One Dictator” Drowsy Donnie.

          She had already been a senator and was running to the left of Biden back then. So I think she already did the changing.

        In today’s internet, a whole lot of A/B testing can happen with very low cost, I guess.
