Summary
Key leaders of the “Abandon Harris” movement, which encouraged voters to oppose Kamala Harris due to U.S. support for Israel during the Gaza war, are now expressing unease about Trump’s incoming administration.
Many in the movement, including prominent Muslim leaders, voted for Trump hoping he would bring peace to the Middle East.
However, concerns are growing over his Cabinet picks, such as Mike Huckabee and Tulsi Gabbard, which some see as troubling for Muslim communities.
This is a volcanic take on Lemmy.
It’s true tho…
Without a primary the Dems consistently move as far right as they can. Sometimes they overshoot and it lets a Republican in.
But no one wanted Kamala as president in 2020, and she moved further right for 2024 and got even less popular.
The next four years will suck. But at least we might have a say in the 2028 candidate.
Kamala would have been almost a decade of “same as Biden” but she was likely to keep moving to the right.
Like, I voted for Kamala. But I knew it wasn’t going to matter because she had zero chance in my state. For it to go blue we need an 08 Obama type.
But I still held my nose.
I just don’t understand why people want to blame those who couldn’t hold their nose, instead of criticizing the unelected political machine who said Kamala was our only option despite being wildly unpopular.
People in the party and Biden’s admin knew how bad he was, and how his age was effecting him. It’s not an opinion anymore, even Chris Clizza admitted it after CNN fired him.
But the DNC still tried to shove him down America’s throats till the last second, then replaced him with Kamala.
If anyone deserves blame for trump, it’s those people. The ones who wasted 1.5 billon dollars on a campaign and couldn’t beat the hands down worst president America has ever had.
