Kamala, with all due respect, please get mental health treatment for your apparent psychopathy.
I will not vote again for Kamala Harris, nor for any other ordinary, boring, middle-of-the-road Democrat. “Vote blue no matter who” brought us to this point, where Democrats are so spineless and compromised, only a handful of elected Dems are willing to oppose fascism. Never again, for me. Give me a candidate worth voting for — that’s the only way to get my vote.
Let’s remove the dictator first, then we can work on the Party. Harris is a bad choice either way.
Historically, the first step in removing the dictator is letting the fake controlled opposition party burn to the ground. Voting in corporate Dems is no different than voting for the fake opposition parties the Soviet dictators used to let run so they could brag about getting 99% of the vote.
We already tried your strategy, and it failed. We got some short-term wins, but at the cost of long-term defeat. In 2020, we followed your approach. We picked the useless corporate centrist because we saw him as more ‘electable’ and because we needed to get Trump out of office. And of course, what everyone on the left predicted would happen, happened. The centrist did very little to actually change the conditions that lead to Trump in the first place, and predictably, Trump won again with an even larger margin.
You need to start looking beyond just the election in front of you. Short-term thinking is what has got us into this mess. We’re so unwilling to take a short-term loss that we make short-sighted decisions on “electability” that ultimately end up losing us elections in both the short and long term.
Your strategy results in Kamala winning in 2028 and Steven Miller becoming president in 2032.
So if 2028 rolls around and you’re presented with a ballot with the choices “Donald Trump” and “Kamala Harris” on it for president, you’ll not vote for Kamala Harris?
Did I stutter?
You might as well have.

If he’s on the ballot again then it’s all over anyway. That would be a third term and would need to be in a war time. So, if he’s on the ballot in 28’, we either have a war happening on our soil or, he’s going full traitor and the elections will be for nothing more than show.
As far as I’m aware there’s no “wartime” exemption from the term limit.
Th real question is, can he declare martial law to prevent or delay the 2028 elections thus extending his second term indefinitely?
There is no constitutional basis for moving the date of elections under any circumstances. Elections went on as normal during the Civil War and WWII, there’s absolutely no legal, constitutional or moral excuse for cancelling or delaying them.
While everything you say is mostly* true, it really doesn’t matter. Martial law gives the executive wide and indeterminate decision making.
WWII was not an insurrection so it was not grounds for martial law. The Civil War was seen as an international conflict initially and not an internal insurrection, but it becomes more complicated as it goes on. The 1807 Insurrection Act gives the president a lot of power. Trump has already postured that he can use it to deal with protests in Portland, OR.
* I say mostly true because Congress is granted the ability to determine when elections will happen.
Yeah, I should have said that there is no basis for the executive branch moving elections under any circumstances (including any precedent or statute for cancelling elections under the Insurrection Act).
At some point that doesn’t matter, though. The constitution is just ink on parchment at the end of the day.
No
Let’s not and just say she did. Time to move on.
Ensure we have no chance of winning.
Will Trump let you run? Be careful because you may as well get deported, and no judge or past president will help you. USA loves Trump, that’s why it’s still there.
Trump would support her because he can win from her easily.
I will splinter the two party system into a thousand little pieces. Mark my words.
Please. We need election reform.
I hope she does just as well in her next primary, as she has in every other primary she’s had to compete in
Not the best idea.
She secretly paid by the GOP so they can secure that 3rd term
Please no. Someone else.
I thought she was married to a white guy.
You guys don’t understand, she lost because people forgot how bad trump was, this time people will fall in line
No one forgot how bad Trump was, most people just watch fox news
JFC don’t. We don’t even want to hear you. I would rather have AOC as a choice over you.
How about they both run in the primaries in a democratic process?
you thought kamala was bad? AOC would TANNKKK the dems
I hate how true this is. She’s popular with Millennials but that’s about it. The vast majority of democrat voters prefer conservative establishment candidates, and they think she’s too extreme.
Where is this bullshit coming from? Conservative establishment candidates have been what keeps losing, if they’re not already an incumbent.
Age Of Cowtron?
AOC would be a stellar choice IMO, but 90% of the 1% would probably be against her, and that’s about half of all the money in USA.
Social democracies in Scandinavia work DESPITE being undermined by the rich, so the political shrewdness and tenacity that would be required of her is insane. She would need a lot of backup from the population, and the population will need patience.Because rebuilding the institutions in USA to their former standard is already a lot of work, but rebuilding them to the standard of a proper social democracy is something USA has never seen before, and will be very difficult.
For starters it requires USA to become an actual democracy instead of the dysfunctional democracy that USA many Americans praise as divine and sent from heaven. A multi party system is a must for true democracy, and until USA has at least 8 parties represented in congress, it is not really a functioning democracy at all.I say this as someone who loves AOC and what she does…
If AOC runs, she will lose.
That’s just the state of the nation right now. The only thing America hates more than women is a progressive. The culture of the country right now is way too volatile. The country just isn’t ready for a female president. Not because a woman can’t do it… but because the country is way too far gone with sexism and misogyny.
It was a long shot when Hillary ran, it was long shot when Kamala ran. If you think it’s not a long shot now after the MAGA crowd has been systematically destroying everything… and you want to run a Berniecrat woman? At this time? In this country?
I think you are right, and I also think it would be better for USA to “normalize” and find its center first.
Then AOC will have better chances of actually accomplishing something.Now we can only hope (as a foreigner) that USA will normalize, and not become a dictatorship.
Hey, keep away from AOC, we need her to take over Chuck’s Senate seat. The rest of you can have her after a term or three, she’ll still be plenty young enough to run, and maybe by then the country will be ready to vote for a woman for President…
From an outsider perspective, I think unless you get AOC now there’s not going to be much of a country left for another round sometime later… Bernie has spent his whole life with “maybe on the next one”. It will never be on the next one.

The correct word would have been “threatens”…
What happened to british headlines? Kamala Harris tells BBC how she wants it!
