   The idea that Kamala Harris wouldn’t be getting any blowback from anyone if she were the nominee is hilarious and definitely not in touch with reality or actual occurrences as much as I want to see her as President myself.

   It’s just pretty ludicrous to think that hits from the right or from the left would dissipate over a candidate switch out. That includes anyone else on the Dem bench, too.

     White liberals: OMG we’re fucking doomed.

     Black Democrats: Fuck Trump, let’s go Joe/Kamala.

     Same shit every year. White people gonna white.

     It gets tiring, doesn’t it? We go though this nonsense, decade after decade. I keep hoping people will figure it out, but so many are looking for easy answers. And every time, it gets harder to dig our way out this mess.

     Trump spent the 2 hours lying continually as he always does because he is a pathological liar. He's been convicted of 34 felonies and is facing trial on three other criminal indictments. But you don't see the anyone today screaming about how Trump must step away and allow someone else to run.

     Joe has a raspy voice and lost his train of thought a couple of times and Dems immediately start trashing him and saying he should step aside. Wow.

     I guess lots of people are going to pretend the brutal slog of the 2020 primaries didn’t happen. There was no one candidate that satisfied everyone then, but Biden won. I can’t comprehend the magical thinking that there would suddenly be an easy switch 4 years later. He wasn’t my candidate in the primaries, but once he won, I knew we were all in for the 8 years. Unite, or fall to fascism, simple as that.
