Harris didn’t even talk up her Black side until she started running for office. She is biracial and is half Indian and keeps in contact with that side of the family more than her father’s side. This effort to make her “the first Black woman” president is missleading and cynical. She’s the first Indian American president with a Jamaican father who doesn’t like her.

Not too long ago it was suggested Biden dump Harris as she was a drag on his re-election due to her being polar and having horrible approval ratings. Now you see her as a strong candidate? Laughable.🙄
From the article "I care about, listen, I care about what’s happening at the border,” Harris responded. “I’m in Guatemala because my focus is dealing with the root causes of migration. There may be some who think that that is not important, but it is my firm belief that if we care about what’s happening at the border, we better care about the root causes and address them. And so that’s what I’m doing.”"
I totally agree with this position and now like her even more. Harris 2024 would be fantastic!!!

You guys still don't understand that the age thing is specific to Biden - Trump doesn't present as old and saying that he's only 3 years younger than Biden or whatever isn't helping you.
DP. hate to agree with this, but it's true. It was extremely apparent at the debate last week. Trump clearly has some issues, but the delta to his previous incoherent self is smaller.
"had some issues"
Like every time he opened his mouth, he told a lie? Ya, those are some issues. He is detached from reality, and yet no one is telling the GOP to change its candidate and the corporate media sure aren't banging the drum about it. Why the double standard?
Yes - it's absolutely astounding that we aren't seeing the same outcry for Trump to drop out of the race given that absolutely outrageous stream of nonstop lies and distortions. It was undeniably a complete gish gallop of provable bullshit. I've had ENOUGH of this "yabut we expect better of Biden" crap. EXPECT BETTER OF REPUBLICANS!!!!
Stop yelling at people. Many of us agree with your basic premise but you keep yelling at us. No one likes it.
And yes, more should be demanded of the GOP but they own the media and have rigged multiple systems to insulate themselves from their losses. So we can only take care of our own party (and even within that it’s not like we have a lot of control).
No. As long as I keep seeing a lack of better expectations from the GOP I'm going to damn well keep yelling. Getting people annoyed is the point. We can't stop until there's an actual change that happens. I, and my yelling, are not the problem here. The problem is with the political officials, the media, and so on. We damn well should be yelling at them, shaming them, exposing them, going after them with legal means when they have committed crimes, doing it every waking minute of every single day. They are the ones who need to be held accountable, not me.
Your yelling isn’t helping. At all.

The difference is that Biden is barely tolerated among democrats and Trump is vastly loved among republicans. And I am not talking about DNC and GOP, I am talking about actual voters.

This is malarkey. It's one of those fake news planted stories that is trying to create an outcome rather than reporting on facts.
You're supporting an impaired individual who clings to power. Not a good look.

Well it worked for Biden, Millard Fillmore, Andrew Johnson, Chester A. Arthur, Theodore Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, Harry S. Truman, Lyndon B. Johnson, and Gerald Ford.

they should first of all fire every one of biden's advisors, his entire digital team, his comms team. Like - no. This is a defcon 5 level of ineptitude and we're going to have a crazed monster with impunity as our despotic lead instead and everyone is going to suffer while the planet burns.

Bernie isn't and wasn't a democrat. You can't on the one side claim that the decks were cleared for Hillary but then also lob this complaint about Bernie.
