    There needs to be some sort of mini primary, not a Harris coronation. having said that, the chances of the DNC managing to organize something like that and not fuck it up are minimal.

      Agreed. I mean look at how they fucked up 2016. They were going to shove Hillary down our throats no matter what. Thanks for that by the way, DNC. Really worked out for us.

    Do a mini primary. I personally don’t think Harris is a best fit. I mean I’m going to vote for whatever nitwit they put into the slot, because fuck Trump with razor wire, but I’d like to at least have a chance to vote for which nitwit we get.

    It would be the most Democratic Party move ever to push Joe out and announce Hillary again.

      It’ll never happen. It’s such an idiotic thought as to make me wonder what the hell your motivations are.

        If it wasn’t clear I don’t want it to happen…but over the years I have felt pretty disenfranchised by the actions of the party vs the will of the voters, and I am still going to vote for them.

      Harris is even more unlikeable than a corpse and hrc, so the DNC will likely settle on her.

        Why?

          He’s probably racist, or sexist, or both. People love to assume everyone else has their same crappy views.

      Boo, Kamala is less electable than Hillary and we saw how that went. Trump didn’t even win an election, Hillary just lost one. We’d see the same thing happen again.

    Please gawd, don’t make it look like they are just anointing a Chosen One, who is due “her turn”. No more diversity box-checking…have a primary. If she wins, then fantastic. Otherwise, it will just be constant division and resentment, and you can count on the bothsiderist media will hit that nerve over and over again to contrast with donnie being so old and in obvious mental decline.

    Primary.

    Ideally, Biden and Harris would both voluntarily fuck off, placing the needs of the country ahead of personal ambition (well, hubris, really).

    Guys, we are completely fucked right now. A jolt to the system is necessary if we wish to maintain even a hope of preserving America.

      The fuck??

      Harris is the only one meeting with the Democrat’s base for the past year (with Biden), offering assurances to Unions and other groups. You know, the only one actively campaigning aside from Biden.

      Its like yall think that this shit doesn’t matter or something.

        And a whole lot of fucking good that’s done. What’s necessary is a fresh start, a vigorous process, and, frankly, someone unconnected to Biden’s foreign policy as it applies to israel.

        Any assclown can do what you seem to imagine is exclusively in Harris’ wheelhouse.

        Edit: I’m voting D no matter what.

          No other candidate can inherit Bidens will like Harris can. Specifically with regards to the donations already pledged to Biden.

            Biden can donate 100% of his money to the Definitely Not Associated With The Democratic Candidate 2024 PAC. Problem solved, tip of the hat to the traitor John Roberts.

    If your master plan is to run Harris, just keep Biden. Harris is less likeable than a corpse and hrc. Selecting her as VP was a huge mistake, but mistakes are apparently the DNC’s specialty.
