    He’s arguing it’s almost over and I just can’t brain that. He says the natural cycle of a virus means it is almost done. It’s wild.

    Wow I really figured it be someone with less baggage than Harris. She does have national prominence which I think help more than an unknown like palin or some insider wonk like Tim Kaine c?

    I also like her as a potential presidential nominee in the event Biden doesn’t run for a second term. I was hoping it’d be either her or Tulsi Gabbard.

    For fucks sake, of all the people he had to pick from, he chose one of the least likable people. Francis the Talking Mule would have been a better choice.

    Polls show she has the best combination of name recognition and favorability among moderates. Looks like a move to shore up the center.

    I mean, isn't that really the entire plan, shoring up the center? I would think the only move that would upset the apple cart for the left/base would be Biden/Trump.

    East Cost/West Coast.

    The traditional role of VP as the president's more aggressive "bulldog" and lightning rod makes her a good fit.

    This hasn't been a well-kept secret among my lobbyist friends, as she's long been the front-runner.

    Let the shit show begin!

    If Biden wins his VP has a good shot at serving out his term at some point. Again, I hate this pick.

    Well that’s scary, because she is a fucking walking shitpile. WHY to Democrats want to chase away voters in your country?

    In a time where attitude towards cops is (understandably) lower than ever he picks the most pro-police cunt in the DNC? Is he fucking retarded?

    BLM helped drum her out of the POTUS nomination in the primary with the “Kamala is a Cop” meme. And rightfully so.

    When they find out that she kept people in jail/prison who didn’t deserve to be; I hope they, like me, hopes she gets a golf umbrella shoved up her snatch and opened pneumatically. She’s a lying psychopath.

    If he picked Tulsi, victory would be guaranteed. The wide range of voters that would pull in would be a landslide. They bastard, he’s probably fucked himself with this joke of a fucking VP nomination.

    Maybe we're fucked and the Dems don't really want to govern at this point. Otherwise, I have no clue what they are doing.

    No one outside of a weird corner of the internet likes Tulsi. She polled close to 0% in the primaries, and Democrats in her own district preferred "somebody else" by a solid 12 points for the House seat she currently occupies (and isn't running to retain).

    I’m kinda thinking these are all just weird corners of the Internet. I’ve found myself tuning out politics more and more the closer it gets to the election, because at this point I’m 100% certain I’m voting dem the whole ticket (never done that, and I’m moderate republican). That’s all I can do. Anything else just serves to make me angry, or make others angry. Control what I can and at that point the election, to borrow a phrase from a famous asshole, is what it is.

    Sounds like Democrats down there really need to check themselves. In weird corners of the internet, I was told Bernie was going to mop the floor this year.
