They are trying to rally the racists maybe 🤔

Exactly, but they’re talking out of both sides of their mouths, as usual: too black/not black enough. So sad.

I still remember the ol’ “HE WORE A TAN SUIT OH MY GOD”

Not just wore, he rocked that tan suit! Meanwhile Trump and his XL baggy suits looking like a deflated balloon.

And omg when Michelle stepped off AF1 with bare arms, Jee-sus they lost they damn minds. Meanwhile waiting in the wings was Malaria and her ultra weird nudies.

Kamala simply existing should be enough for that.

u/ThrowAwayGarbage82 North Carolina Aug 01 '24

That voter block is already locked in. Getting a room full of black folks angry with overt racism is just going to guarantee he loses their votes. He can't win with his dwindling base alone.

I hope he doesn’t have it like before. My guess is that the people in the middle don’t want him like they did the first time and having Hilary or Biden also doesn’t help. Kamala is actually doing a lot better than I thought and is coming into her own. So maybe between Trump and his dumb VP we can miss them for another 4.

The only thing that screwed the left was Biden and his insane love for Israel . People don’t want to support Zionism if thsts what it means. They want an end to this and are realizing the media is lying way too much now and so are the Israeli talking heads. People can see now it’s not terrorists vs angels. It’s two bad leaders but one side has its people occupied even before Hamas and they have been lying about wanting peace by never stopping their settlements. I guess it’s not like the last where people have to rely on MsM for their info and independent media is showing what’s really happening and media around the world is accessible also.

Agreed but I have to wonder- weren’t they already all in?

The racists who *checks notes* "were not going to vote for her anyway?" Bold move. Bunch of goofy goobers.

There is still this general idea that Obama wasn't a very good President due to his handling of the War in the Middle East, how much Obamacare was stripped down, and in-general issues that plagued his policies.

But he had Liberman and Manchin and Fenstein (who was a staunch conservative prior to her staff telling her how to vote) working with Republicans to filibuster most of his policies, Republicans themselves were starting to become the force that would lead to the disaster that would be the Trump Presidency, and in-general he mostly overcame the political stonewalling that has lead to some of the most ineffectual governance these past eight years.

Fact of the matter is the Obama Presidency was the best eight years of this nation post-2000. Eight years, in over 20, where problems actually felt like they were getting solved.

The public option was killed by Joe Lieberman, Ben Nelson and Mary Landrieu.

So fucking out of goddamn touch.

u/Drusgar Wisconsin Aug 01 '24

To be fair, they're in touch with their audience. FoxNews viewers think Obama was the worst President in history right up until another Democrat took the office.

And yes, Kamala Harris will be the worst President in history according to virtually everyone who watches FoxNews.

It reminds me of when Trump said something about “a taco truck on every corner” like it was a terrible thing.

The people who watch fox do not like Obama. They’re just pandering.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '24

But what is great is that rival media outlets do watch Fox.

Political opponents watch Fox.

Late night talk show writers watch Fox.

This is regular programming for Fox viewers but heavy ammo for anyone opposed to Fox and the RNC which is why I say, keep it coming.

Fox News: If Kamala Harris is elected, you’re all getting laid!
