Amazing. You read a comment about how Trump is a genuine threat that needs real opposition rather than a Democratic party that looks to compromise with that threat and you immediately decide to kiss the asses of the party that repeatedly fails to protect us.

Edit: The Democratic Party has learned nothing from 2016, they learned the wrong lessons from 2020, and I worry they’ll learn nothing from this election. People critiquing the Democratic Parties approach is not an endorsement of Trump. We want better opposition that actually fights for us. If all you want is to root for you team and ignore their flaws then we’re fucked.

You should be pushing the party to improve not shutting down any discussion of improving the parties platform or strategy. Trump got elected due to Democratic failures, not because people are discussing those failures.

The comments criticizing the Harris campaign for adopting right wing policies?

I checked the profile too. Today I learned that being pro Palestine and posting food pictures is a far right government plot to make the Biden administration look bad.

In your mind a government actor would be speaking out against the government’s actions? You alright?

Pence was Trump’s last Vice President. His politics are as bad as any other republican, but he did the bare minimum of admitting to losing the last election and didn’t take part in any of the election overthrowing funny business.

My responses were brief. I should be more clear and less of a dick. I’m sorry for that.

As I said earlier in the thread that you didn’t read or didnt understand, “The politically adept way to answer protesters with a substantial base of support that you don’t want to alienate is to say, ‘I hear you.’”

If she wants their votes she needs policy and actions that will win those votes.

It’s a protest at a press conference. When protesting its beneficial to take your message to the press and politicians. I’m not claiming it was their turn to speak because the entire point of a protest is taking a stand and making your voice heard even if it isn’t convenient.

Historically effective protest movements weren’t convenient for politicians.

I’m sorry, I had no idea this concept could be so alien to anybody.

Protests are not effective if they can be ignored. THE ENTIRE POINT IS THAT IT ISN’T THEIR TURN TO SPEAK.

Edit: The politically adept way to answer protesters with a substantial base of support that you don’t want to alienate is to say, “I hear you.”

It likely is, but she most recently used the same phrase to shutdown pro-palestine protestors at a rally.

Describing people begging for a genocide to stop as just having hurt feelings and being impatient is a wild approach.

Protests aren’t supposed to be silent. That’s the entire point and the only way to get anything done. If Harris was already campaigning on a ceasefire they would have nothing to protest about and she wouldn’t be interrupted. These are constituents making their voices heard.

“I’m speaking.”

She has used this multiple times, but most recently it was to shut down people protesting the genocide of palestinians.

Edit: Who’s downvoting my factual and verifiable answer to their question?

Work was supposed to be slow today. D’:

Or he could be leading by 4 points.

Edit: 3 points. I guess I struggle with addition now D:

After reading I now appreciate David Gerard’s dedication.

Sometimes I upvote/downvote posts and comments on accident while scrolling… I might be giving people too much credit though.

I don’t think she’s the Disney in charge.

Trump is a legitimate threat to democracy.

So shouldn’t we send literally anybody else? Isn’t Biden’s approval rating sub 40%?

I agree with lesser evil voting and harm reductuon, but we’re not voting yet. They can maybe run somebody who might not throw the election.

When you’re as old as the pope setting up a website seems like a miracle.

The article above, that you didn’t read, talks about the speaker of the house and surveyed Americans.
