Kamala will get crushed. The only states that matter are rust belt ga/fl/az. All of those places are more racist than you think.

Is she though? Edit to add, how cool would it be to see Michelle and Kamala on one ticket?

Is she though?

Not all and it is pretty obvious. I will do anything I can to prevent Trump from winning but we are being dealt a terrible deck with this change.

What’s wrong with Kamala? I keep seeing this take but no one explains why she’s not up to the job.

Edit: this was a genuine question, I’m not American but I do have eyeballs and I’ve noticed that whenever her name pops up, it’s immediately oh she’s unelectable, she won’t win but never why. So in the absence of an answer I’m just going to assume it’s yet another attempt at disenfranchising Black voters.

I’m not sure if it’s so much “she’s not up for the job” as “she’s a WOC so that turns off both the racists AND the misogynists.”

She’s not the most progressive and has some track record of being a harsh GA. Tbh a lot like Joe. Uhhh she kinda bounced in the low 5%s in 2020 primaries.

I’m all in for Kamala, though.

I don’t think she can win. Kelly from az has stongest swing state voting, which is all that matters(basically)

u/girlsumps ☑️ Jul 21 '24

You’re envisioning a scenario where Arizona votes for Kelly as senator and Trump for president? Does that sound plausible because it doesn’t to me.

I just said that out loud to my boyfriend before reading your comment 😂 Micelle and Kamala would be an incredible duo!

Nobody really likes Kamala and she was horrible debating democrats. Bad candidate

The landslide was in the Electoral College, but the popular vote was very close.

Richard Nixon had 43.4% of the vote. Hubert Humphrey had 42.7% of the vote. It was only a landslide in terms of the electoral vote count.

u/RisingToMediocrity Jul 21 '24

So it was a landslide in the only metric that matters?
