I REMBER THIS PROM DRESS
its a may!!
Big Gretch is like AU likable Hillary Clinton
And Hillary already won the popular vote
The optics of the convention giving it to a white person over Kamala would not go over well with the base that was denied a primary. It’s Kamala or you make a significant part of the voter base justifiably angry.
Genuinely 100% convinced Big Gretch is the move
Not if Kamala announces she is not running either
good luck
In that fictional universe, yeah you go for Gretchen Whitmer, but lol
I really really like Gretchen Whitmer and don’t really like Kamala, but you cannot just snub Kamala for this without serious consequences.
I’m p confident Kamala Harris cannot win against Trump so like idrc if you piss off some people that are gonna vote democrat anyways like sorry but who cares
apparently in France all of the infighting left-wing parties united and created like an alliance under threat of the far-right. i hope something similar happens; iirc there’s a lot of left-wing people who are like “voting doesn’t do anything lmao” and don’t vote and then there’s a lot of center-ish people who are like “I hate the Democrat candidates so i am voting for trump despite liking the democrats as a party more”
maybe Kamala Harris can remedy the latter one, i don’t know, but i think the big thing is just the rallying cry lol.
this is all heresay, though. take it with a grain of salt
We’ll see what the DNC does but if they wanna win I think they gotta ditch the entire current ticket tbqh
it would definitely be very risky
i don’t think they would actually do it. just out of the sheer riskiness of it
So would running Kamala imo
It is genuinely hard to overstate how many center and center-right people I know that strongly dislike her
evil me is popping off rn btw
yeah fair
If you ask a center-right person that doesn’t like Trump if they’d be willing to swap sides for Kamala Harris I bet that answer is no way more than for Big Gretch and imo that’s huge
she does need to improve her public image a bit
but it’s a presidential campaign rather than whatever she’s been doing before. i think she has the opportunity to.
but risk-reward calculations with the democratic officials likely just turn up Kamala
But hey I have no power here glgl dnc lmao
