    She was the least popular candidate in 2020, but for some reason Biden chose her as his VP. Then she lost to Donald Trump in 2024, after practically being forced onto the ticket. And she’s still thinking about running again?

    JFC. Whoever is telling her this is a good idea, needs to be fired.

      That’s the problem with the DNC putting identity politics over matters of policy. And I don’t even use that term in the same sense as the right-wing anti-DEI psychosis.

      DEI is a matter of policy. Choosing a milquetoast establishment neoliberal solely because she’s a woman of color is identity politics.

      It’s better to nominate a progressive regardless of race, gender, or sexuality, than it is to nominate the most intersectional minority who panders to the right-wing “moderates.”

      The Dems lost in 2016 because they forced Hillary on everyone when they wanted Bernie. Clearly they still haven’t learned their lesson…

        She also took the most aggressive and direct shot at Biden that I can recall during the primary with her criticism of Biden’s position on busing.

          Michelle Obama is an immensely qualified and insightful human being for a number of reasons and BitchBoyBurr sold his soul to bonesaw McGee and the oil bunch without a second thought and then whined like the pathetic little supplicant he is at heart when people called him out for it. Fuck him forever.

          Talked mad shit about those billionaires until they offered him a check finally. Turned out he was just jealous.
