    LOL It used to be that Freddy would get ganged up on when he attacked the Democrats. Now, ya'll won't even bother to put up a defense?

    If anything you said was true, then Bernie would have stomped in the Dem primaries.

    And please tell me what specific policies that ONLY affect Black people could a Dem politician advocate??

    Yall talk this shit and don't realize there's a broader socioeconomic component in play beyond just race.

    Criminal justice reform? Biden supports that.

    Believe it or not, there are some issues that are bigger than a POTUS fulfilling a Black agenda while in office.
    It's shocking to me how many folks don't recognize the danger of having a POTUS like Trump who believes he's constitutionally above the law and insulated from any criminal prosecution, which means he can do anything he wants and Congress and the Supreme Court can't touch him.

    A lot of truth here. A bunch of people (oddly very few if any black men) are capitalizing off of the oppression and destruction of black men including Kamala Harris. Yes we all know Trump is incompetent we can see that but the dems are callous and out of touch. Me saying it out loud is not going to cause people to say home. See their so called leaders go on vacation as they suffer as 1/3 can't meet rent. What are they suppose to take away from that? Literally no one gives two fucks. They all retreated to their nice homes and gated communities while people starve. All of them did this including democrats then have the nerve to court moderate Republicans over actual progressives. Your average person is suppose to see this lack of care from everyone and some how come to the conclusion that life would be better under Biden. Why should they believe that when they offer zero policies. If all you can do is say Trump is bad on a loop then fuck it I'll stay home because you can't even muster the energy to tell me how you'd be better in plain simple policy terms

    The Republicans are so shrewd. They've masted the ability of doing fucked up shit and having the Dems get blamed for it.
    Pelosi ans Schumer begged that Congress NOT shut down until a new relief package was approved.

    Mitch McConnell said, "Fuck that, I don't like your bill," and shut the Senate down for recess. Now some liberals are blaming the Dems for not getting a relief bill passed before leaving D.C.

    Fuck whoever our candidate is for president, if you don't control Congress, you can't do shit.

    And the problem with Trump isn't that he's incompetent. The man is breaking the federal government and blowing up our democracy in the process.
    Trump doesn't want voters voting by mail, (because it's harder to steal an election with a paper trail), so what does he do? He hires his OWN Postmaster General, a former high level campaign donor, with one directive; do everything in your power to slow down the flow of mail leading up to the election so that mail-in ballots don't arrive in time to be cast or counted.

    Trump doesn't want any future reports of Russian interference in the 2020 election to get out to the public, so Trump has his Director of National Intelligence decide he's going to STOP briefing Congress about election security. No good reason, just because.

    These are the type of stories that directly impact our democracy and how the country is run, and the MSM simply won't focus on them.

    Trump believes everything in D.C. is for his own personal benefit to promote his own private agendas. This is the mindset of an autocrat. He's broken his own party who refuses to stand against him when he's doing fucked up shit, which has made them rubber stamps for everything he wants to do.

    Progressives need to back off their hardon for bashing the Dems and see what's really going on.

    This just proves horseshoe theory has merit. These "progressives" are attacking Donnies enemies instead of attacking him. That's actually doing the work for the GOP. Now you have to attack Donnie to try to bring things back into focus. It's like they are playing defensive line for the GOP.

    Coop nailed it.

    I couldn’t agree more with your comment above. “Crabs In a Barrel” thinking is so detrimental and harmful to both collective and individual progress.

    I know the real agenda is to backdoor run her for POTUS in 2024 but this isn't helping

    Yep, Her running in 2024 or 2028 is a certainty, and in my opinion, she will not do well, because of the lack of real support and her tendency of not being genuine.

    She could be talking about growing up in Oakland in the 1970s as a kid. Yall coming in too strong for her.lol.
    Everyone was a revolutionary in Oakland back in the day.

    They have a strong point. She said she celebrated across multiple generations. With which family? Her mother is Indian. Indians don't celebrate Kwanzaa and if one did it wouldn't be across multiple generations. She's also Jamaican. Jamaicans do not celebrate Kwanzaa again even if one person did its not across multiple generations.
    She is exactly what's wrong with politics and why most people loathe politicians. She's a bold face liar not a genuine bone in her body and unless someone like AOC primaries her she's gonna cost democrats the 2024 election

    The issue with someone primarying her is that the DNC would put their full strength behind her, and we would have a rerun of the Hillary Vs Bernie fiasco of 2016.
    Identity politics are far too important to the Dems for them not to anoint Kamala Harris as their heir apparent. She checks way too many boxes, and she is a center-left soldier who will toe the line as good as anybody they could hope for. Unless some earth-shattering political scandal happens before 2024, the Dems are going to ride or die with Kamala.

    And that's great but each year Gen z folk turn 18 and old Dems die. This dance won't last for much longer. Populism is gonna win or facism will

    Sure but Kamala is not nearly as strong as Hiliary so just backing her aint as easy.

    You're right, she isn't as strong as Hillary, and that is one of the reasons she will lose in a head-to-head presidential election. However, the Democratic establishment has to back her, they don't have a choice. The Democratic Party is beholden to identity politics. (race, gender, sexual orientation, etc.) They would collapse as a party if they didn't put their full support behind the highest-ranking brown-skinned woman in U.S. history.
