Allying with a neocon while a large group of voters viewed both sides as the same is one of the main reasons Kamala lost. Complaining about people pointing that out is how to lose future support as well.
Also, European coalitions are typically between two different parties, with the weaker one in each constituency standing down to prevent the non-fascist vote being divided. It's not left-wing/liberal politicians endorsing conservative war-mongers, because that would alienate their target voters.
No, it doesn't, because more people leave the tent in disgust than enter for the torture. Cheney publicly appearing with Kamala when Gaza was her biggest campaign weakness is an utterly baffling choice, unless she wanted to sabotage the Democrats.
Not necessarily. I believe that LC 'belatedly' saw the danger of another tRump term. But if you watched any of her interviews ... you saw that it had NOTHING to do with caring a darn about the rest of us. It was all "darn, the monster is out and MY peeps are in danger". THAT was glaringly obvious.
But not someone from such an evil family as that one. That's like the mango aligning with putin. We all know it's bad. For some reason someone thought that was a good idea. It wasn't. I hated it at the time. Emailed the witch, reminded her she helped create this monster and to be real. She wasn't.
I just wanna know what business Harris has saying she would put Country over anything.
(ngl, I love the wordplay here, just voicing my disgust for the Blue MAGA woman)
She cares about her empire you mean. I had "hope" for her being "better" and watched a lot of her interviews. No. She hasn't changed. She is just smart enough to see how this is all going to end. And it didn't fool enough people.
Simmer, huh? Unless you're wealthy or abroad ... you'll be down there too. I haven't enjoyed it from day one, not going to start now. I'm smart enough to spot a fake when I see it. Still trying to stop choking over all the 'idiutz' saying the mango had 'charisma' (barf). I see quite well thanks.
this is what happens when you don’t have a bitch on the payroll who is looking for any possible negative wordplay that can be done like their life depends on it 😤
This us when the Labour right came into advise. They used that slogan. Keir is the lowest polling PM this early in a term in British history. So much so the outright fascist Reform party is certain to win.
It’s wild that a privileged white boy gets to denigrate women this way and it’s all for laughs. You’re seriously laying this all at Kamala’s feet? I blame shitty white men like you.
Never said she wasn’t a Republican 🙄 Harris tried to unite everyone who opposed DJT, but when she lost, a lot of people claimed she only tried to appeal to woke libs. Obvious BS. A cult on one side and zero consensus on the other.
I'm addressing your statement on LC omitting the fact that we didn't get here overnight and overlooking the voting record from chooch boi's first term.
That voting record was devastating for people like me and all marginalized communities.
Two things can and are often true! Cheney realized the inherent danger of Trump as did Harris and they tried to warn people! Unfortunately people didn’t look at that an wonder why odd bedfellows and pay attention, despite that they are normally on opposing sides..
Mr. Onion, us Canadians are seeing what's happening down there and we are learning from your experiences. We will be sure to bring extra booze come election time. 🙃
Careful, liver failure was always an expensive proposition in this country... Without Medicaid, cirrhosis sufferers will likely just have to die under bridges after losing everything they own.
The phase “Country Over Party” can be understood in two ways. One declares that the welfare of the Nation is more important than loyalty to a political party. The second interpretation is closer to the current reality.
Still have the champagne in the fridge that we bought hoping to have the chance to open election night. No idea what to do with it now. Drinking it for nothing is depressing, drinking it for something else feels off, and tossing it is wasteful. 🤷
Even putting aside the fact that they were campaigning with a Cheney, how hard would it have been to say "Country Before Party" to avoid the double meaning?
Me too!!! I spent a while, trying to figure out when that would’ve been taken before I realized who it was! Gave a light until I realize the intention. Lol! At least I brought some humor, even if I disagree with it.
“Country over party? You mean like building coalitions with progressive voters to promote social welfare programs that everyone wants?” “No we mean build coalitions with dick cheney’s daughter and promote that everything is going fine as is.”
The countries usually called “developing” are not exactly moving in the right direction… most of them are becoming capitalist pawns of global imperial hegemony… when we call the US this, we acknowledge the contradiction of the label
Seriously fuck the political consultant class who just switched parties and did their dirty work in a different color.
Clueless, selfish assholes literally pitched everything except the right message, "Blame Billionaires!". Who cares if fascism is coming, gotta keep that money flowing.

Allying with a Cheney and the Never Trumpers is no different than a right-left coalition in a European country preventing a far right takeover.
American leftists just aren’t mature enough for that
Aligned interests are how alliances are made. It’s been that way since the dawn of time and how wars and power is won everywhere.
Alliances are how a the minority wins.

Also what else can people do but laugh.
Democrats: Country over party.
Republicans: Country over. Party!
Please elaborate
Country Over, Party
No, party!
That voting record was devastating for people like me and all marginalized communities.
I'm not looking to whitewash history.
See, Musk is right. The free market really does solve all problems!
We know how that turned out...
Impressive.
(which i have done, so fair play)

So tonight we're gonna party like its 1999
If booze ain't your buddy but you're still down to clown, come sit by me. :)
Well done
What America needs now is a few friends and a revolution.
