    Harris is like that zit that just won’t go away. She’s probably Biden’s biggest mistake.

      Biggest mistake? That’s a tough field.

      I’d argue it was not charging trump with Jan6, or any of his other crimes.

      or hiring and not firing Merrick Garland.

      or running a second term when he should have held a primary for a new candidate.

      Harris was a giant nobody during Biden’s presidency. Nobody gave af about her until Biden dropped and we were just stuck with her.

      Nah, Biden’s biggest mistake was undoubtedly appointing conservative do-nothing Merrick Garland instead of somebody who would actually do their fucking job and prosecute Trump’s crimes.

      Everything else is dwarfed in comparison to that. Biden is going to go down in history worse than Neville Chamberlain, as the President who let the fascists destroy the country on his watch and did fuck-all to stop them.

        Biden didn’t want to stop it because the entire party condones what the other does. It keep them all in power

      Unfortunately Biden was the mistake. DNC denying Bernie a second time should really put everything into perspective.

        DNC didn’t deny shit the second time.

        This is so annoying. Bernie lost fair and square. I voted for him, others did too but many, many more coalesced around Biden.

        Perhaps if him and Warren worked a deal that one would drop out in favor of the other but they didn’t and thus split some votes. They didn’t though, both lost.

          Nah fam, I disagree. The DNC was behind Biden since the very beginning, the other candidates didn’t even get the same endorsements as a result. 2024 comes around and same crap again.

      Not his precious genocide?

      Looking at these comments, you’re all fucking idiots. Downvote away.

      Nevermind the ethical implication of suggesting his worst mistakes we’re not his unconditional support for Israel’s genocide, political cover, illegal weapons transfers, repeatedly lying about seeing beheaded children, calling students from your own base protesting that terrorists and allowing police to attack them, dragging reporters out of the press room for asking questions, I could go on…

      Her unwillingness to not fully support genocide and call for “most lethal military” in the face of protests is why she wasn’t elected.

      Trump being dragged into a war with Iran is directly connected to the series of events that unfolded as a result Israel committing genocide with US funding and political protection and cover.

      Literally everything we’re dealing with today is because Biden insisted on having his genocide and callously licked ice cream while saying there are none chances of a ceasefire and repeatedly lying about seeing war crimes to justify dropping 2,000 bombs on a mostly child population.

      Fuck Biden and fuck everyone who remembers him for anything but his genocide.

      I don’t like Harris but Biden was far less competent and suited to the moment.

      Obama’s biggest mistake was playing it safe with a DEI hire for an ideologically bankrupt, incompetent old white guy for his VP.

      Harris doesn’t have charisma with normal people (though she is apparently great at getting fundraising from the rich and powerful…) but at least she showed some kind of awareness of how to play politics unlike Biden who stumbled through his presidency and failed campaign for re-election like a dementia patient sleepwalking out onto a busy highway.
