Kamala Harris’s campaign should strike a more populist note
I agree, if we could get Kamala to agree then I’d feel a lot more confident about her beating trump.
I don’t understand why people want to blame everyone except Kamala and her campaign for her campaigns failings tho.
The media is always mad at Dem voters for not being excited for Dem candidates, probably because the wealthy owners of the media are the same ones donating so the left most option isn’t really all that “left”.

There are a lot of things outside of Harris’s control though - having two important voting blocs (the Jewish vote and the Islamic vote) that are on opposite sides of a big and important single issue, the need to draw in moderate Republicans, etc.

Based on her 2019 platform I’d suspect that this is secretly the case. I’m expecting a massive turnaround - but this is conditional on Dems also gaining a majority in the House and retaining the majority in the Senate.

Actually it’s a failing of FPTP, with a system like that folks need to aim for the centre.
Because they are? Let’s not pretend several billionaires don’t have Democrats on their payroll too. Are we just ignoring the existence of pelosi and her corporate democrat ilk to make this point? Dems and Republicans are in the pockets of corporate america and billionaires. It’s not a secret that this country is a thinly veiled oligarchy
Perhaps because they are the current ruling party of a government doing business with elites such as the world’s richest man who funds trump.
It’s true that the owners of large space technology companies are often rich, therefore all governments who contract to them are supporting elites.
Very insightful observation.
You don’t go to school study and become the owner of a large space technology company, you need government backing for it.
Yes, therefore all governments that use private space companies are supporting elites. It’s a brilliant point, no need to keep convincing me.
It’s because Democrats are not willing to become anti-elite or anti-rich or anything like that, they’d piss off their donors. Only Trump was able to do this because everyone knows he’s lying. His donors know it’s all a show.
Hard agree. All we get from the Democrats is more of the same economically and military, but with some feel good identity politics (i.e. that don’t in any way threaten corpos, just provide more markets) and socially progressive vibes. Still better than the alternative sure, but they are just sprinkling glitter on a turd to make it look appealing. There’s zero interest towards actually addressing social/financial inequality, reigning in the power of corpos, separating money from politics, or basically changing the economic status quo in any meaningful way. It’s a sad state of affairs, and absolutely no wonder leftists aren’t enthused to vote for Harris. It’s basically a vote for keeping things exactly as they are now, which is not what voters want at all. US politics is so corrupted by money now that a government of the people for the people is just a distant memory. And this talk of reforming the electoral college is just more window dressing, seems to me.
have you considered identifying as metamorphic rocks? Cause my newest donor has some lovely rock Polish for you and when you buy it you prove to all the haters that your post igneous lifestyle isn’t just a phase! In fact I will specifically respect and enforce the sales of metamorphic rock Polish in all stores that would already sell it because of the corporate backing of this product!
what was that about a rent cap? Sorry no comment. And how dare you diminish the matamorphic-os who you tried to silence with this pointless off topic line of questioning. You are just Rockist.
