And we all know left wing means socialist boys and girls! And that is the same thing as communist!

Kamela Harris is coming for your guns, religion, freedom and she even hates negroes!

So much fun to be able to listen to bullsh*t like this for 3.5 months...

Only 2.75 months!

You'll make it through the "Harris = Antifa" memes just fine

I didn't go back several pages. Does Kamela check the "Wingo Progressive Approved" boxes?

I'll particularly enjoy "She's not tough on crime while being too tough on crime to negroes" dichotomy that's coming up.

The cringe worthy entertainment value of racist republicans being suddenly woke.

I'm sure Kanye was activated, Manchurian D*chebag style, to argue this very thing.

There's this idea of Bernie Sanders that seems to have very little to do with Bernie Sanders the person.

Absolutely, I have those exact feelings about her. But I think the coming of age of Gen Z is going to pair with the Millenials to force politically savvy Dems to shift left whether it's principle or survival. With the GOP media machine already pushing Biden's plans as an incognito socialist takeover, I don't think there was any chance of anything closer to the left getting through. When she started her campaign, she recognized that she needed to aim for progressives as well as neolibs; that awareness is a good sign at least.

Side note: I fully admit that under any them resembling normal circumstances, I'd consider her AG record disqualifying. But at least I think maybe we can flip that and hold it over her head. Her miss on the M4A bait and switch ought to have helped her recognize that she can't just spin her way around it. She'll push some things legislatively to address 'em...I hope...I really, really hope.

He still has to go to work and make donuts with the other Senators at the end of the day.

With a majority in the Senate, Bernie will be heavily in the mix

The most annoying thing about all the "he's too pie in the sky" talk was that Bernie always had a pragmatic streak. Ironically, Matty Yglesias who loves trolling Sanders supporters broke it down fairly well a ways back

The Kanye stunt was the ultimate sign of GOP desperation and cluelessness. I don't respect West, but for a moment there between get some help and WFT is going on here I felt sorry for that fool. But only for a moment. He is literally one of the worst celebrities of all time

I've come to feel he may be more powerful as a progressive champion in the Senate than in the presidency. He absolutely knows how to play ball but once in the presidency he would have to all the time and that might erode his uncompromising veneer.

This pick scares the **** out of Trump, it’s a good thing.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/top-trump-aide-reportedly-most-scared-of-kamala-shes-the-least-flawed-of-2020-dems

Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., was the scariest would-be opponent for President Trump's reelection bid, one of the president's top campaign officials has reportedly said.

“The one who scares me the most in the general is Kamala Harris," the official said. Described by The Washington Times as a "key player" in Trump's campaign, the official said Harris was the "least flawed" Democratic hopeful in the crowded field of presidential aspirants,

Pence is a putz. He’s a punching bag in the waiting. At least it’ll be fun watching Kamala tear his ass up in the VP debate ... which is completely meaningless in this election.

Is Pence allowed to be in a room with her after 8 pm?

:lol: The elephant in the room that night for sure. What I would give to see Kamala throw that spike in his direction.

And “Mother” will have to give him a spanking when he gets home.

Door open at all times, no eye contact, social distancing rules in effect but not because of COVID.

It doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks either, because Trump was clearly scared of Biden the most to the point he got impeached for treasonous behavior.

Now he has to deal with the woman he probably also fears the most.

Harris + Biden is literally Trump's nightmare ticket. That certainly factored into Kamala getting chosen.

I hope he loses even more sleep now worrying about this nasty woman coming to collect his scalp
