Joe Biden ends re-election campaign
You're viewing a single thread.
So are they gonna run Kopmala and still lose?
Probably. I think most of the other potential DNC ghouls are scared of eating shit and getting the mantle of Hillary 2.0 when they're fine waiting for 2028.
That makes sense. I think it works for them anyway because dem voters just want someone younger, but dont care if she does the exact same stuff. As long as she doesnt bungle her words.
kamala is a big time word bungler though
It's so funny that she is just as much a marble mouth as Biden is
to be fair, we have no idea how she sounds sober
and we never will
I don't know, imagine the hell of seeing him not shielded/prepped by his staff and knowing that you lost to that. She wasn't like this in the 2016 primaries
It's much worse for Kamala because she didn't really lose to Biden specifically. She never made it to the 2020 primaries before dropping out because the polls showed her so far behind the pack that Andrew Yang was about to trounce her in California where she was the sitting senator.
Candidate and VP Kamala probably has different drug cocktail mixologists
Hard to just cold turkey stop benzos like that. She's gonna be shakey if she has to make an unscheduled live appearance and didn't have time to redose.
It's hard to bargle nawdle zouss with all these Xannies in my mouth
Tbh I've only seen her speak like 3 times so I often forget she exists and haven't had enough exposure to notice.
Kamala 2024: Have You Ever Had a Dream You Um You Had Your You You You Could You'll Do You Could You You Want You Want Them To Do So Much You Could Do Anything
She sounds like she abuses Alprazolam.
She's the best chance they have to win imho. Because picking anyone else looks like extreme ratfuckery and loses a lot of the base. (And people here overrate how supposedly unlikeable she is lol).
Kamala explains the eternal science of dialectics
The guesses that she’ll perform poorly are based on the 2016 primary where she wasn’t unlikeable as much as she was bland and forgettable. She’s just a blank slate now people can project what they want onto her.
I still don’t think she has a good shot and that Whitmer or Newsom would have it. I’ll be surprised by her alleged likability when I see it.
Edit: tbf I do know some suburban wine mom/aunt libs who love her. So clearly there’s a demographic there. Problem is that it’s very similar to Hillary’s. I don’t know if that’ll be enough to push her over the edge.
Having the first female/non-white president is probably going to be the card they play. Will probably play up her being half-black more than half-Indian and make comparisons to Obama.
Yeah this. Its the easiest transition. And i know its hard for me to imagine how people who don't really follow this stuff feel about her, or how people who are going to
feel about her. I do think people will like her less the more they see of her, but i don't know that it will matter.I don't think it really matters what people feel about her. The dems strategy is negative partisanship and abortion. The candidate doesnt matter as long as they can keep the conversation on Trump and abortion. Harris is really bad at this, on top of being an outright ghoul, but she can at least say the word abortion. And abortion is already boosting the base and going to drive people to vote.
I'm not saying she'll win, but i think more or less anyone but Biden could be competitive in this race. It could go either way, but i think people here are a little kneejerk that the dems will lose to Trump.
Disclaimer- i don't care about this election or who wins. I've just followed this stuff for way to long to not have an oponion on what might happen.
Death to Amerikkka of course
no way in hell it's gonna happen
Lol okay. What i said could happen is that she could win or lose, just that it's not impossible for her to win
Another big factor is all of that money that's been donated to the Biden campaign that only she has clear legal access to
I saw someone mention Mark Kelly, the astronaut turned AZ senator that flipped AZ blue. I think people could get behind that with the right campaign. I dunno if the DNC is that competent though
Biden just endorsed Kamala according to news coming across the wire.
Still remember to remind Democrats that you can't vote for her or anyone else because the primary and thus the people in our totally healthy, totally democracy CHOSE Joe Biden and that he was undemocratically forced out by unelected media, donors, and insider. As such you're either withholding your vote in protest of slap to the face of Democratic voters who CHOSE Joe fair and square or writing in Joe.
After all people don't vote for a ticket for its vice president who is a place-holder at most, often a compromise with the visions of the candidate. They vote for the candidate, so it's not at all fair to say votes for Joe were votes for Kamala or transferable to her. Just repeat this at liberals and watch them malfunction and lose it as they cope with their impending loss.
because the primary and thus the people in our totally healthy, totally democracy CHOSE Joe Biden
I know you’re doing this as a bit but this line pissed me the fuck off from Biden or bust losers. What the fuck primary are they talking about? Only like half of the states had primaries, and in half of those Joe Biden ran unopposed. Here in Florida there literally was no primary. And then these lanyard dick motherfuckers go on TV and say “suck it up this is what we all decided in the primary” and I’m like bitch who’s we?
Democracy
I left my ballot blank, to send a message
Write in Biden or Clinton, it's only fair
By showing that he'll put the nation first he's finally done what it took to earn my vote
it's her turn after all
Biden endorsed Kamala on twitter but it's not his decision. The candidate will likely be chosen by the DNC in August.
3 months to hustle. The DNC got this in the bag lol
as long as she's the nominee she's paying for my next decade of bong rips
She probably has the best odds anyways
i saw a poll (🙄) where she was losing but the governor of PA would beat trump
Kamala has the current vibe though, and as dumb as it sounds people have won on that before.
Doubtful, until like a week ago she was the only Dem that polled worse than Biden against Trump. Literally any Dem governor would win, and most of the house reps and senators probably would too.
I struggle to believe that Newsome would win. You could just say "Governor of California" and lose 2/3rds of the country (and they really wouldn't be wrong, or rather right for the wrong reasons)
looks like joe's team just tweeted an endorsement for her
Do they have any other choice? There are a grand total of zero potential candidates with any sort of charisma.
Maybe AOC could have worked but she's not old enough yet.
AOC was on the keep Biden in train lmao
Wasn't everybody doing the "Biden is still good" dance in public and only shat on him behind closed doors?
Maybe she knows he's dead and wanted them to weekend at Bernie's him
Tbh I think Whitmer could win. This is going to be another "vote against Trump" election, and she was literally targeted by MAGA nuts who wanted to drown her in Lake Michigan. Plus she single-handedly delivers one of the swing states that Dems need.
That's what they have been polling for so it will be very funny if it isn't
Yes. Joe took out himself and whoever replaces him, and possibly the Democratic party itself. NO WAY Trump can lose now, and if they put up Kopmala it will be an epic sweep. I will eat these words with a mustard sandwich if somehow the Dems win, but I'm feeling pretty safe, tbh.
