Kamala Harris has said that she currently has no desire to re-enter “the system” of American politics because it is “broken”.
On Thursday night the Democratic party’s defeated presidential nominee, who replaced Joe Biden late in the 2024 campaign after he dropped his re-election bid, gave her first interview since losing the election to Donald Trump, talking to Stephen Colbert on The Late Show.
After she announced she will not run for the governorship of California just a day earlier, Harris told the TV show that it was about something more “basic” than whether she wanted to run for something else instead – with the subtext being whether she will attempt a White House run again in 2028.
So…
Two days after 10/7 he said a slogan was problematic because it could be interpreted as a call for genocide…
And then on Thanksgiving he thanked Biden for working on expanding aid to Gaza and facilitating release of prisoners? (Which reads like a bit of a jab towards Biden honestly)
I dont understand the single word you put with that
Did you mean “pass” as he “passes” your standards?
Or you think those two tweets from 2 years ago mean you won’t support the Dem party?
Because if so, Im really curious who you support. For pretty much any position anywhere.
Weird how he attacked Democratic Socialists of America while doing that.
Mamdani is a member of DSA by the way.
Attacked?
If he attacked anything it was the phrase. But very few social media disagreements count as “attacks”.
But he didn’t attack “DSA twin cities”
https://twincitiesdsa.org/steering-committee/
An organization so professional they don’t even disclose their leaderships last names btw.
And definitely did not attack the national DSA.
But like, you think him disagreeing with the phrasing of one tweet made by one member of a city chapter of a nationwide organization is an “attack” on the entire national organization?
You…
You insist any member of the party never questions the party?
Not just the party, they can’t question any other member?
If anyone disagrees, are you going to label them a “suppressive person” for life?
Cuz uh…
Yes he called DSA extremists.
I recall you being a lot more progressive. Not sure what happened to you.
He did not, he said it was a phrase used by extremists…
Here’s a hypothetical:
Let’s say I was born in 1988, and my ancestors were Swedish, something that is very important to my family.
So I make an account named “NorsePride88”…
I would absolutely appreciate someone pulling me aside and saying:
I would not get defensive and claim I was “attacked”, I would thank someone for informing me that while I thought I was using as a benign phrase, a lot of people were going to assume I was intentionally using Nazi dog whistles.
So obviously, the correct response would be not using that account/phrase anymore, because of connotations I wasn’t aware of when I typed those words.
I’m trying to help, this really just seems like miscommunication is the only issue here.
“The phrase is used by extremists.”
DSA used the phrase knowing very well what it means and knowing what they support. The DNC chair is concern trolling.
Imagine you make an account called “FreePalestine99”. Would you hope someone pulled you aside and said “Actually free Palestine is used by extremists”.
Bruh…
You keep saying DSA, when it’s a very very small chapter for the “Twin cities” which is a single metro area.
I don’t know if I’m doing a poor job of explaining the difference between the two or what.
But you are taking:
And insisting it means:
I’m sorry I can’t help you with this, I legitimately thought that last reply had a chance tho.
I don’t think you even know what the DSA is. They pulled AOC’s endorsement because she kept voting to send weapons to Israel. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/11/us/politics/aoc-dsa-endorsement.html
