    Except all those people will also be fine if Kamala Harris wins the presidency. And they won’t be if Biden loses it.

      yes, but everyone is worried too many idiots won’t vote for her. it’s risky. those idiots have stupid reasons like “because she’s a woman” and they suck, but you can’t ignore them this time.

        I think the best thing they can do is commit to one candidate. Doesn’t matter who. It could be a pig wearing lipstick. But they gotta commit. No changing their minds at the last minute. Sanders endorsed Biden. AOC endorsed Biden. They should run Biden.

        Well no doubt that will be key. But I think that’ll actually work against Republicans. They think they’re being clever by dogwhistling racism and sexism, but people see through it and don’t want to be associated with it. Besides, it’s near-certain loss with Biden vs risky bet on Kamala.
