Will Harris run again? Is her book giving her some traction or is she cooked?


I'm listening to her book and she should not have published it. She comes across as obsessed with celebrities, like she treats her role as though she's an actor playing a part, bitter about Joe Biden and his staff, and worried about being overshadowed. She all but said that she picked Tim Walz because he was the weakest candidate ("I had 99 problems and a Vice President couldn't be one..." damn Kamala, did you really just liken your running mate to b-tch?). She complained that Trump had a bandage on after he was "nicked by a bullet." She really comes across quite badly.


Harris is in the same boat as Vance and Pence. Their political careers are over due to their associations with extremely unpopular presidents. She has every right to cash in on book in 2025. Don't read it if you don't want to hear the bitter ramblings of someone who had to deal with both Trump and Biden last year.

AOC has a degree in international relations and economics from Boston University.

People act like she’s a lightweight, but she actually attended the same institutions as folks like Howard Stern and Tipper Gore


Oh, shut up. PP said she was a “bartender”. You’re moving the goalpost to troll. Now you’re putting her down because she isn’t a nepo admit to an “elitist” school like so many politicans.


I think you mean “elite” schools.

Sorry - since he has been sworn in as a president twice now that is not a good way to look at things.

Quite the interpretation. She didn’t think Walz was weak. He was safe. And that mattered because unfortunately, too many Americans were going to have a hard enough time with a woman, and a person of color, being on the ticket. So she didn’t feel free to pick just based on her own preference. She had to make a strategic choice. As all presidential nominees do. Sometimes it’s what state they’re from, sometimes it’s their ability to appeal to the most people possible.

People running for office ARE playing a part. Do you understand anything about the point of campaigning at all?

Trump has zero visible cartilage damage to his ear. Cartilage doesn’t grow back. He totally milked that for attention and as a campaign strategy.


Your analysis makes no sense in light of the fact that she was picking between Kelly, Shapiro, and Walz. So three white men, no POC in the mix. I get the sense you haven't read her book because I wasn't interpreting, she was pretty clear. She said Shapiro was too ambitious and she didnt want to worry he would undermine her. She said she was afraid Kelly would have Swift Boat issues. And then with no sense of irony, she picked Walz who ACTUALLY had issues with misrepresentation of his military record. But in her final analysis, she was quite clear that she didn't want to deal with a VP that might undermine her to further their own presidential aspirations.

When I say playing a part, I mean literally. She really doesn't talk about issues or... politics. She talks about celebrities constantly in the book, but very little about, you know, other politicians. I'm familiar enough with politics to know that politicians need do deal with issues, and with each other. That's the job. And she doesn't discuss it. She talks about endorsements from Usher and Charlie XCX and how she had her website turned green to show she's Brat. I mean, you have to appeal to the youth but this is cringe as hell, and it makes sense why Trump gained points on the youth vote while she underperformed.

Anyway I hope she runs again.

I like to hear things from the horse's mouth. So I'm going to soldier through her book, even if I think she's not representing herself well. When I say she shouldn't have published it, I mean for her own sake. Okay, "Dreams from my Father" this is not. At all.

Did you see AOC and Bernie on CNN?

AOC is fighting for "drinkable" air.

She accuses Deloitte, an accounting firm, of pouring chemicals into waterways.and poisoning people.

She can't even get her talking points straight.

lol could you try to keep your thoughts in reality? Shapiro was not selected because he is pro Israel and a part of the HRC wing. If he was on the ticket I doubt they would have broken 25% of the popular vote. Remember Israel did everything in its power to stop Harris(and Biden). Waltz had no issues with his service. It was all made up.

Except that isn’t how things work. I don’t get why people harp on the who go more people to vote this way or that for president. The Electoral College is the DEI of presidential elections. We are a democratic republic.

As of today, I think you still have to include Newsome in the mix.

I don’t.

They are elite institutions because they are hard to get into. They are elitist because they primarily serve the super wealthy.

What about Senator Merkley? He’s progressive but looks like an old safe white guy. He’s filibustering now.
