I was all in for EW from the beginning, would’ve voted for her in the primary if I had had the chance, but Biden would’ve had to been an IDIOT to choose her after floating the names of numerous, highly qualified, not-white women.
Just because it’s written on Twitter does not make it true. Seriously people. I never once thought it was going to be Elizabeth Warren. She brought very little to the ticket. Let’s stop infighting and accept this choice.
Tucker Carlson losing his shit after being corrected about the pronunciation of her name is giving me life. Suck it, buddy. This is just one of many tweets with the clip, I don't know who this person is:
Trump kept mispronouncing her name yesterday during his press conference. Made me so mad because you know he was doing it on purpose.
Listening to two educated people speak is so refreshing.
that wa great! both did great! only thing, because covid has made me paranoid as hell, she kept touching her face. I'm going to be so nervous about their health!
I said this a while ago in another Bernie thread ... granted, I’m not actively seeking out info on what he’s up to nowadays, but where the hell is he? One would think that someone so intent on being president would still step up as a leader even if he doesn’t wind up on the ticket. Has he been pushing for anything related to COVID recovery, unemployment, whatever?
He's probably busy working on his 2024 campaign. *eyeroll*

Exactly!
It was never going to be Warren. I don’t give a fuck what this tweet says. Maybe she was in the running at one point but after the George Floyd murder and the american spring civil rights awaking, there is no way, no POSSIBLE way, that it was going to be an all white, all geriatric, all east coast ticket. But emphasis on the ALL WHITE. This tweet is not evergreen. It’s vintage. It makes no sense in the current political climate. It’s it’s being tossed around to hurt Kamala. So think about that, retweeters.

Did you notice that after she did, he would? It was like a yawn catching. And also a sign he was really listening to her, rather than just thinking about his next move.

That was an amazing speech from both of them. I love how he said he wants her to tell him when he’s wrong and I loved how she talked about her relationship with Beau and what a great dad Joe is. And they both drove home again and again how terribly Trump has damaged our nation.

“I can’t bothered to pronounce your name right so You can go by Calle.”

Also, I might have missed it, but I’m pretty sure Biden avoided using the word President in connection with Trump. He just said Donald Trump every time, which I approve of because the once or twice I accidentally said President with his last name following, I had a physical urge to hit myself.

yes I always say "the president" or "trump" but never pair them if I can help it.

I really hope that a big part of her messaging is correcting the info out there about her record as DA/AG. Because she really was incredibly progressive in that role. Remember that she was still working within the system as it was designed by white men seeking to maintain power, so no - she couldn’t fix everything. But the claim that Trashi Garbage made in the debate about Kamala persecuting pot offenses and laughing is unsubstantiated and attributed to a Free Beacon article.
I think this article does a decent job at providing some context. Again, they need to message this info because a lot of what people are criticizing are Russian and conservative talking points.
Editing to add, I think that, in general, a lot of people who aren’t lawyers and aren’t familiar with our system of justice don’t understand what exactly district attorneys or attorneys general do, so it’s easy to blame her for convictions, etc, but it’s disingenuous. .
“ There has been much talk about the time Sen. Kamala Harris spent as a prosecutor. As a public defender for 24 years, I examined, critiqued and battled Harris when she was the San Francisco district attorney. And more often than not, Harris and I were on opposite sides. Having had this experience, I feel compelled to speak on Harris’ record while she was a district attorney. Simply put, Harris was the most progressive prosecutor in the state. This is not an anecdotal opinion. It is based on facts.”
Like I said, I really hope this is addressed with a quickness.

I have literally never said it. Best he’s gotten from me is 45 or Trump. But it’s usually much less respectful.
Various outlets reporting the Biden-Harris campaign raised $26 million in the 24 hours after the announcement, and 150k of the contributors were first-time donors to the campaign.
