I’ve often assumed Harris didn’t want to insult her boss by going against him, because I got the impression she was planning to give Netanyahu what for once she took over - especially with him escalating things further and further. Did anyone else get that vibe, or was it just wishful thinking on my part?

    We really need AOC to step up and run in 2028, then pivot to the Senate for the rest of her political career.

    There’s nothing left for republicans to say about her that they haven’t said about Hillary, Biden, or Kamala.

    At least this way we actually energize our base and if we win we actually make progress. Keep up the momentum and we might finally be done with this shit show.

      DNC in 2028: We’re finally ready to learn our lesson from 2016+2024 and listen to our base. We hear you loud and clear: “No more female candidates.” We will be reallocating AOC’s delegates to Chuck Schumer.

        That was effectively the whisper campaign against Warren in 2020. Sure, she’s popular, sure, she’s pulling in plenty of money from small-dollar donors, and sure, she’s literally leading in the primary (for a very short period), but every single newspaper and pundit suddenly wanted to JAQ off about whether a woman could win. The answers started off “of course”, but if you ask people that question enough times, they’ll start to think it’s something they should be asking themselves.
