    lol what the fresh hell is this take.

    I heard this in some particularly leftist areas of the internet back in 2020 when Biden tapped her for VP. It’s not good, that’s for sure.

    Some people even dug deep into her case record and found some really old cases they didn’t like. It’s just an attempt to keep the flames going against the DNC.

    Harris is probably going to be the best candidate the DNC has nominated since 2008. I am personally thrilled.

      Clinton and Biden aren’t exactly a high bar to clear.

        Right, that’s what I’m sayin’. It’s a big year for me; I was a Republican back in 2008 and 2012 (because I was young and stupid and in a red state), so this is the first time I’ll have a Democratic presidential candidate to vote for that I’m actually excited about.

            Same. I’ve kept the Christian and ditched the conservative; but honestly I think running headfirst into what basically amounts to socialism aligned me more closely with Biblical values than I ever was as a Republican.

            It’s been a whirlwind-y decade.
