    Kamala is absolutely not fine. She ate absolute shit in the 2020 primaries because ahe is the quintessential policy wonk that is completly divorced from working class struggles. Her big sales pitch in 2020 was student debt relief for anyone who ran a business for 6 years in a low income neighborhood. This was the inevitable outcome when Biden chose her as a running mate back in 2020.

    As much as the Democrats want to pretend they are pro-wprking people, they aren’t. They will continue to eat shit in elections until they start offering actual policies that benefit actual working people, not business owners and the management classes.

      When we’re talking about whether “Kamala” is fine, I think we need to be specific as to what we’re talking about. Like, I think running a non-white woman who occasionally laughs on camera is fine, but running someone who’s flip flopped on Medicare for All isn’t.
