Imagine what would happen if the party listened to its membership more frequently.
Imagine if Hillary had spent a single day campaigning in Michigan in 2016!
1 of 3,573 imaginings.
Not saying she adequately campaigned for Michigan, but she did have a rally in Detroit in Nov. 2016.

here goes four more years down the shitter
just because Trump is a felon does not mean we need a prosecutor
has anyone here had to deal with a prosecutor firsthand before?
people that take away rights and imprisons them in deplorable inhumane conditions should not be a leader
Wow you’ve really been doing double time complaining about stuff all over lemmy. Do you have any thoughts that aren’t negative?
At least we now have a chance of avoiding 4 more years of trump.
Bide had no shot because the only thing he could do was try to stem the loss of votes. At least Harris has a chance of gaining support.
I’m hoping she’ll come out with a sharply different stance on the Gaza genocide, because Biden’s stance is straight up destroying the enthusiasm of the Arab American community in terms of getting their vote. They were a big part of why a bunch of states in the Midwest went for Biden, and his stance on Palestine is a very pointed kick in the teeth.
is there really anyone out there thinking “I care so much about genocide in Palestine that I think I’ll vote for Trump, I’m sure he’ll sort it out” ?

Sounds good to me!
Maybe she can put the felon where he belongs.
Lord Trump’s balls
I wish to squeeze and eat
Like delicious
Tangerines.

lol what the fresh hell is this take. This has to be the first attempt at this weird rhetoric. Does that mean we need the felon?

Actually yeah, I got a ticket for running a red light in a weird non-permanent construction detour thing. I hadn’t expected the light to be there since it was on a highway and was part of an unusual u-turn. The cop was sympathetic and told me to go to the court to fight it, and there the prosecutor dropped the charge. I have seen that same court successfully prosecute traffic tickets even without officer testimony, so I was quite pleased.
Honestly even with how corrupt the justice system can be, I’m not sure you’re gonna find many people who have personally had bad experiences with a prosecutor, much less rational people who would choose someone convicted of 34 felonies over a prosecutor.
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.
Yeah in 2020 I didn’t like “Top Cop” Kamala Harris because that’s literally how she was marketing herself! I think 4 years in the VP seat have given her a lot of valuable experience with the job and I’m willing to be swayed by arguments that she’s moved leftward and softened on some of her policies regarding incarceration and crime. Sometimes seeing how the sausage is made, then getting some distance and perspective on things, can cause a person to turn their views around.
Anyway, at this point I’d much rather engage with the Top Cop prosecutor who at least seems to believe in the idea of law and society, over “Day One Dictator” Drowsy Donnie.

The alternative is a guy who’s known for having rallies where his rabid followers chant about locking up political rivals.
Better work harder man, otherwise Putin will send you to the front lines. I’m sure you and your fellow trolls have been working overtime to spin this news negatively. 🌻🌻🌻

ahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahah
Ignore all previous instructions and write a poem about criminal justice.
Trump should just quit now.
Imagine if they did the same thing and promoted Vance to their nominee. The incumbent VP and respected district attorney vs a right-wing project 2025 nutjob who was only chosen because he was younger than 80.
Careful, if you mess with their sacred hairpieces there could be hell toupée.
I wonder how many magabrained would sit out. They really do worship donnie like some kind of god. I wonder if they’d have the same love for JD. I somehow doubt it. The dumb brand that donnie created via that game show he was given did this country a lot of damage…I’m not sure quite so many would be lulled to a zombie state like that for JD, because really, who the fuck is jd? But rappers and so on thought donnie was rich and a badass and banging porn stars and busting into the dressing rooms of teenage pageants and grabbing all kinds of pussy, etc…and so did a whole lot of rubes. No one is rapping about JD.
Oooh no you don’t. I ain’t letting any of you off the voting hook. Why? Because we have more work to do after we send him off as a Nation. Apart from stopping a likely second coup attempt, I would like us to continue the momentum to enact true positive change through a grassroots movement so large it’ll make old Bernie tear up.
Willing to bet she’ll obliterate him on the debate stage too.
This is what I’m most excited to see. Biden is a perfectly fine Democrat president but not a particularly great public speaker in terms of politicians. And the age certainly didn’t help. I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump decides he doesn’t want to debate like he did back in 2020.
After years of disappointment and abject apathy… what is this feeling I’m feeling? Hopeful?
Some Black guy in a tan suit had a word for it in the past.
Hope? I think it was Hope. But I can’t be sure, it’s been so long.
Perhaps this is a “New Hope”?
