Not so much that. I felt relief, initially, when I saw she was running instead of Biden. And I liked Wahl. Whatever else he is, he is Midwest, and worth less than a million. Again, Midwest.

She started out fine. “We’re not going back” was a great byline. Then, some dipshit decided, about the time of the convention, to dump it because “We’re not going back” was too negative. The convention had “See something say something” which was weird.

Then, she would t say anything definitive about working class just identity politics.

Then, she started palling around with moderates and Cheney. She had it at the opening. Lost though being the same old shit.

. In terms of voting, a bunch of people thought Palestine would be helped by not voting for her. Now, there is no Palestine. Would it have been different? The world will never know. Palestine will never know because it doesn’t exist anymore, and almost everyone is dead.

And some people thought, eh, it wasn’t that big of deal the first time, who cares?

And a wave of men thought they’d have a better chance at a liveable wage and dating women and establishing that most valuable of things (for some), a legacy (through kids), if maga was in charge.

MAGA lied, but they did make a bunch of promises of a better life to working class. People are desperate.

Instead we have a senile old man as president who keeps breaking everything while oligarchs and Vought run things.

But yeah, Bernie and Mamdani types are what they win on. It’s not that they don’t know that, it’s that they don’t care because they’re owned by oligarchs. As such, whomever the fuck oligarchs people are are the candidates we need.
