Kamala Harris has said that she currently has no desire to re-enter “the system” of American politics because it is “broken”.

On Thursday night the Democratic party’s defeated presidential nominee, who replaced Joe Biden late in the 2024 campaign after he dropped his re-election bid, gave her first interview since losing the election to Donald Trump, talking to Stephen Colbert on The Late Show.

After she announced she will not run for the governorship of California just a day earlier, Harris told the TV show that it was about something more “basic” than whether she wanted to run for something else instead – with the subtext being whether she will attempt a White House run again in 2028.

DSA used the phrase knowing very well what it means and knowing what they support

Bruh...

You keep saying DSA, when it's a very very small chapter for the "Twin cities" which is a single metro area.

I don't know if I'm doing a poor job of explaining the difference between the two or what.

But you are taking:

Phrase used by extremists

And insisting it means:

Only extremists ever say this

I'm sorry I can't help you with this, I legitimately thought that last reply had a chance tho.

I don't think you even know what the DSA is. They pulled AOC's endorsement because she kept voting to send weapons to Israel. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/11/us/politics/aoc-dsa-endorsement.html
