Kamala Harris: The American people deserve leaders who make their lives better, and make our country stronger. But sadly, we have seen quite the opposite over these past few months.

We hope historians define this as the exact moment our next President picked the reins which have been abandoned by the current administration and began the hard work of uniting and leading America back to its Dream.
They didn't codify roe, infuriating!
Or, increase minimum wage, stop price gouging on groceries, expand the Supreme Court, but spent 4 years funding genocide! Couldn't do anything about price gouging, but all the sudden she's going fix it on day one. But only if voters showed up to let her win.
WHERE have you been hiding as Bernie and the Progressives got out and ran with fighting the oligarchs. You've been more hidden than jeffries and pelosicunt. Why NOW. Gonna go with pandering again. That is so OLD!
Kamala lost by playing “safe” and is still doing it. No joy, no bueno.
What we have seen over the past few months has been an incompetent in almost every way wrecking ball taken to the U.S. government, trade policy, research amd science and inhuman disappearing of people to foreign slave centers.
Because people on the left haven't addressed their racism and misogyny.
Kamala is the one politician that my siblings, nieces, and parents all agreed on. The more she talked, the more those of them who didn't know her liked her. My mom and I were 10 toes down since the beginning because CA.
💯 She is still slandered by them too! She was a great candidate who far surpassed my expectations for someone taking on his huge responsibility with no notice. She actually cares about people and isn’t ego driven
Yes, she is more empathic on her worst day than her critics combined. I have had the privilege of meeting her in person and the way she looked into my eyes and listened. I got teary-eyed, and so did she. No words were exchanged in that moment. But a whole lot was said.
Are you the one who got a selfie too?? I’m so jealous you got to meet her 😭 Definitely on my list as well as Biden! So glad to hear she’s just as authentic in person!
🚨 URGENT: May 4th - Stop Musk & Trump! Join us May 4:
we fight back against their power grab

Well Kamala, here’s your chance to become the Trump of Democrats and actually knock those lame arsed fence sitters into a cohesive, functioning opposition party.
She’s right, and I will always be a Harris supporter. However, she is STILL playing by the rules of a game that has none. Pointing out the obvious does nothing to deter lawlessness. We need action, we need unprecedented action. We need severe ACTION. Quit pretending that voting will matter. It won’t
I mean, she could have won if she didn't run a dogshit campaign. Really cool for her to do an "I told you so" tour while she failed everyone on the left. Catering to the right, bringing out Liz, ignoring Gaza. The Dems are just Republican lite at this point.
If you voted for a 32x convicted felon who tried to overthrow the governmet over a non-felon career civil servant clearly the problem is not how she ran her campaign. The problem is you.
This is how dumb liberals are. I voted for her. You're allowed to criticize and want better from the people representing you, and still realize one is the lesser of two evils. I'd vote for her again if I had to, but she fucked up. The Dems never actually cater to the left. They cater to centrists.
She sure the fuck did. Careful, you're not allowed to criticize anyone on the left without being accused of supporting Trump. You must worship the Dems the way maga worships Trump.
But hey - we may have lost the election but at least we made sure Bernie never got to run in the general election, which was really the most important thing!
Where in my history did I EVER say I voted for Trump? Liberals are so fucking brain broken. People exist further left than the Dems are willing to go. Imagine that!
The American people deserve EXACTLY what we’re getting from Trump. 2016 may have been a fluke but not 2024 when Trump won the popular vote even after his disastrous first term, after Dobbs, after being found guilty of sexually assaulting eg Carroll and after J6. Nope we deserve what we’re getting.
And still no accountability from the leftists who used Gaza as an excuse to deny a Black woman from being POTUS. Notice how they have been nearly silent since Trump took power again, hmmmm...
Kamala as a former VP needs to do better. She comes across as insouciant, all-knowing and a bit flippant. Put you fight shoes on and steel up or just get out of way.
Observing from the U.K. , Kamala is not the one to turn the tide . She failed to halt MAGA.
Where is the fresh , strong leader, who will stand up to Trump & lead the US out of decline ? You have a massive population , surely you can find a candidate ?
Your movement has accomplished *nothing* but getting more Palestinians killed, stripped your brothers and sisters of rights, and led to people getting sent to overseas concentration camps.
The most *annoying* thing about that is you'll never come to terms with it. You'll blame the dems and pout.
What movement? You seem to think you know a lot about me. Tell me more about my "movement" Let me guess, you think I sat out voting, huh? Again. Liberals brains are fucking broken.
I'm sorry but in a democracy you get the government you deserve because you voted for it. If you were stupid enough to vote for your own demise then you got exactly what you voted for.If you were too lazy to vote or uninterested you also got what you deserve.Only Democrats who voted have my sympathy
Trump spent over $200million in anti-trans ads and it worked. Had dems especially Harris defended transgender people instead of ignoring, perhaps trump would not have won. Anti-transgender rhetoric is the gateway into fascism. Dems are still falling for it and are more anti-trans themselves. 弱虫首脳
Kamala: "I have been inspired by the movements like the one in Wisconsin that put Susan Crawford on the supreme court and by leaders across the spectrum. Including congressional leaders like Cory Booker, Chris Van Hollen, Chris Murphy, Jasmine Crockett, Maxwell Frost, AOC and Bernie Sanders."
One thing I've always liked about Kamala, is she actually acknowledges and praises other leaders. Doesn't portray herself as the "only one" who has all the answers, unlike some people
Americans really would rather go through a whole damn moral and financial depression than to vote for an overly qualified woman. You really can't make this shit up. I wish it was an Onion article. I hate that Americans are so easily manipulated, and I hate to raise my kids through this.
While she's correct and it needs to be said over and over, what America needs is action, less talk. Every day I hope to see a glimmer of a "plan B", to take back the country. Sa e america deserves it.
Why didn’t she demand a recount and forensics? Elon should be in fucking jail. Wtf man. Americans are too goddamn lazy to vote for a competent administration and overwhelm any hacking or tampering?!? Fuck this cracka ass country.
Kamala Harris “When one person has fear,it has a way of spreading to those around them & spreading & we are witnessing that, no doubt. But,courage is also contagious”.This moment calls all of us to have courage to stand up, speak out & fight for what is right & the greater good. To be Brave & BOLD.
I really like Kamala but deep down hope she doesn’t run again. We need someone else this time around. It’s hard to rebound after losing and we need someone fresh and with a bit more charisma who isn’t afraid to go low if need be.
good speech but why did they fck up with the acoustics, cant clip for social/pods, tv broadcast sound awful...very bad planning regarding production for her first major appearance, just shocking logistics all round, fire them all...this was supposed to be a big deal, now you cant do anything with it
Yeah, fascism and the erasure of our laws and the constitution are SO MUCH BETTER. I love losing all my rights and then having to listen to you self-righteous babies spend your time ensuring the world knows you’re a “real leftist” and not a dirty liberal, instead of actually fighting fascism.
Sorry. BlueSky is full of Jill Stein voters and nonvoters who are far more concerned with their own status as “real leftists” than they are with fighting fascism. I assumed you were one of them.
And every single Republican still in office lied, and continues to lie, about Trump’s fitness for office. But of you couldn’t figure out that a 34 time convicted, racist, lying, sexual predator, failed casino owner and insurrection instigator was unfit, well, that doesn’t say anything good about you
I did figure it out. I voted for her last time. I just don’t think she deserves my vote next time since she was willing to lie to us about Biden. Jesus people. We need to hold the DNC accountable to us not give them free passes when they screw up. That doesn’t mean I’d vote for t the MAGAts
I’m so happy she is speaking out. I think this means we will be seeing more of her. She will run for something. As a Californian, I would like to see her as our Governor.
I find myself facing realty here and dealing with my anxiety and grief in the constant but sometimes I pretend there really is a multiverse and take great comfort that one Jessica saw the first women president be elected and certain Cheeto go to jail. If only it had been us. Alas.
I imagine it too, and while it's better than the timeline we're presently on, the threat of what has fallen upon us still looms.
Some of you gotta remember, the seeds of our current malaise were planted long before Trump and those responsible for sewing them will still be here after he's gone.
Dear America
You was warned what would happen if you rehired the convicted felon and you choose illogically to back him so shut the fuck up grow up and get your senses back
It's scary that the same thing could happen here in Australia because our incumbent Prime Minister @albomp.bsky.social isn't popular amongst 'progressives'.
Absolutely! It's frustrating to see progress stalled when so much more is possible for everyone. What policies do you think would most immediately uplift communities and strengthen our democracy?
While I know all of the votes made it JUST outsige the margins of error that demand a recount, I'd think there was enough circumstantial evidence for an emergency DoJ investigation.
North America would be run by extremely highly educated people. I do believe that would be a first. Instead we're in oreo style cookie. But this is a center that I would peel and throw away.
It's just an analogy no big deal. You know everybody loves Oreos. I can no longer be serious, my anxiety is gone through the roof and now they just passed this that they can deport US citizens. Do you remember last week, when it was said if you make fun of them they want to charge you? I'm done 🫠🤷
Yep and the Democrats have been a bunch of weak pathetic cowards, we have no leadership in our country, we have no courage, we are lost because the Democrats are cowards
Strength means willing to change. Democrats aren't willing to face up to the fact that voters deserted them because they are wimps. They won't fight Republicans, they won't make things better for main street. They ask for donations but won't fight. After supporting them 50+ years, F 'em.
Many Dems suck for sure but she fought. Unfortunately the Media did the usual and Dems sit on their asses, stay home and complain.. there is only 1 party destroying the country, the Repukes
Yeah, and? Whatcha’ gonna do about it? Put a gun to voter’s heads and say ‘choose OUR candidate or it’s Trump!’ for a third time? AOC, Sanders, Crockett, Walz, Pritzker- that’s the future.
I don't get why the US has been demanding Kamala to speak. She owes us NOTHING. She literally ran a great campaign and the USA still chose the actual anti Christ. It's like a top tier job candidate being passed over for a gig but still being expected to work. Kamala, go rest sis. But thanks anyway.
No she didn’t. Going after Trump just to feed the never trumpers and putting more focus on trans and abortion rights was not running a great campaign. She should’ve vowed to eliminate private and federal student loans and that would’ve been enough for her to win the election
I think you answered your own statement there.. money.. money.. money.. for some Americans it’s more important than your trans neighbour next door, women’s rights, freedom, if your honest.. eliminating private and federal student loans would not have won her the election..
Wtf are you talking about? VP Harris ran a balanced campaign that, duh, included "going after Trump," but also a myriad of policy/issue points. And, if some didn't vote for her becuz she didn't make clear she'd cont. Biden's fight for student debt relief, I have two words for them: fuck you.
I voted for her but am still upset about her conceding as she did. There was zero reason for it, & she could have demanded recounts/audits. It felt like a gut punch when she conceded.
If I dropped you the news that you have 4 months to run a campaign against a man who has been 5 years to do the same... How would you do? She's human, her campaign isn't perfect... But it was a combination of lack of time and our country is racist and sexist AF

Only blah blah blah
Even if she's right in this case, I absolutely do not think we should let her regain relevance

His supporters can’t be as patriotic as they claim when all they do is whine about how bad America is. It wasn’t bad until the felon got in there

(Of course, if this applies to you, you won't see it, or at least not for long. 😜)
Not a bit sadly..

If nothing else , learn that age doesn’t always bring wisdom or competence !
The most *annoying* thing about that is you'll never come to terms with it. You'll blame the dems and pout.
Idiot.
Definitely not a shameless, cynical strategy
It just offended your sensibilities you weak ass wilting flower
Yeah it didn't work because there are more stupid voters than we'd hoped. Sucks!
(I cover politics and social issues, focusing on fighting fascism and raising awareness about key injustices. Please follow me if interested!)
America, look . . .
... you messed up . . . for the second time !
The world would be better off with Kamala Harris.
💙
Then it hurts too bad, and I have to push it out of my mind. 😔
I never give up hope.

Just look at Canada's election.
Before Trump took office, Pierre Poilievre was up by A GIANT margin.
In <100 days, Trump showed Canada how fucking stupid it was to vote for Poilievre.
Because Poilievre manipulated the same stupidity in Canada.
YOU'RE. NOT. IMMUNE.
I'm trying to tell you that we all need to ally against this shit, globally.
Sorry.
I'm sure ALL democracies are looking at US (hahaha 🫠) as an example.
It all started with conspiracies... Just like Nazi Germany
What some of them wanted, and what Musk paid for.
Dd Garland screw that up as well?
💔
Whatever
She's dead to me. She's what's wrong with the Democratic party.
Leave the losers behind. We need fighters.

E for effort
F for failed
This is a fascist coup!
Say it, don’t talk around

Great speech.
I WONDER WHY SHE LOST!!!!!!
Was it Tim Walz yapping about taking care of our neighbors and being good to our fellow human???????!!!!!!!
