Re: Current Events...
I'm wondering what happened with the so called "Kamala Republicans".
A voting bloc that didn't show up?
I think they showed up. They just weren’t big enough to counteract the bro vote gains that Trump made.
They are just an extension of the college educated urbanites that ID was taking about.
Re: Current Events...
I'm also wondering about these veep picks. Vance was/is horrific....but Walz was a dud as well.
What happened to choosing someone who will help the ticket? Remember those days?
The last few elections have told us…that these people don’t matter. There have been some god awful ones and they don’t move the needle at all. It’s all on the President pick at this point. I mean that’s clear to me . It might as well be a cutout and you’d get the same benefit.

If she had picked Shapiro it might have made a difference in PA.
This is how the veep was chosen back in the day.
JFK wanted (needed) Texas....he picks LBJ.
Reagan picked the #2 guy in that cycle.
I just don't see the point of picking someone not relevant...even if the veep isn't as relevant as it used to be.

Republican Senate incoming....
Man...the Dems really did shit the bed this cycle.
Both parties do this but for this cycle I think the Dems did the scary boogeyman too much or it just didn’t sell or wasn’t realistic.
I’m talking about the Project 25 stuff and like the mass deportations of people. This vote or die aspect that they seem to always have turns people off.
As someone who leans left, no the fucking world will not end just because Trump gets a second term. It cracks me up when I read those people , that’s it, I’m moving to Canada.
Re: Current Events...
The worst thing Kamala could have done was campaign with the Cheney’s. I will never understand that decision
It’s easily explained as they are tone deaf. They see reality in the Democratic vision and not what the electorate sees it as. They expect people to know who the Chaneys are. Yes, the political junkies know but not the average American. Or they don’t care. Either way it didn’t matter.
