And David Hogg is part of the problem with the democrats. They need to tame him or he needs to be ousted.

I think they do this all the time- Kamala for sure. This whole “gay is bad” argument became a major talking point after they met Mayor Pete. They know danger when they see it and they PLAN AHEAD. We should be doing the same.

Absolutely. It’s like a full-circle moment of psy-ops. The same MTV/VH1 media class we grew up w (Tapper, Kennedy, etc) is now repackaging right-wing narratives under a “neutral” veneer while Trump plots open autocracy, arms deals with UAE, and fascist nostalgia tours in Saudi Arabia.

The gaslight is generational. This always felt like a long game 2 delegitimize Kamala/Biden, just as the stakes go full existential. We’ve been watching kompromat propaganda since cable. Now it’s just streaming! Hold on 2 yr souls!💜

I also remember a week in July or August 2017 when the Nation, Jacobin, and the Intercept all put out articles specifically attacking Harris, with Ryan Cooper adding Cory Booker and Deval Patrick to the mix. That's when the "Kamala is a cop" stuff started.

Did they get the memo from Bannon?

I have vague inklings of reading that other people started intentionally trying to undermine her even before that.

She got a lot of attention and people were calling her “the female Obama” even before she ran for senate.

That was when it all started.

Who they attack is who they fear. Watch for them to ramp up on Pritzker, Whitmer, Shapiro, Evers and Walz. These govenors are giving them fits.

Yes, it's horrible, but we cannot run a woman or person of color in this era and win. We have to run a straight white dude. Terrible, but true

This has been the game play since it began against Hillary in the 80s. So threatened by smart women!

Yes. They spotted Hillary very early on as someone dangerous to their cause.

Different players, same game.

They want to erase black history. They want to discredit every POC & erase everything except their false narrative.

At this point, I am ready to let the democratic party figure it out for themselves. If they can gather all of the sex deprived mayosapiens and save democracy, have at it.

I have consistently done my job and what did that get us? Look at where we are right now. 1/

I have said it before and I will continue shouting it: white people will burn the world down to hold on to their whiteness. Everybody else be damned.
