She didn't and as far as I know hasn't called it a genocide yet.
Good for that protestor. Look at that dumb smug bribe-taking loser smiling on stage. What a waste.
Where exactly is she shaken?
I only see her standing up for a splitsecond and then a smirk at the end.
That smirk makes me unreasonably angry. That protester was 100% correct, and there's zero self-reflection. She's out there flogging her books when she should be mounting an opposition.
I know this is very very old news / old man yells at clouds but,
Couldn't you just slap "visibly shaken" onto fucking anything? Headlines suck

"We have four years of Trump!"
I guess it's good to see that someone is still an optimist.
Misread it as "Hideo Kojima" at first and was confused.
i have full confidence he'd just trigger his fulton recovery system and zoop through the roof if he was put on the spot like this
It's crazy to think this all could have been avoided if Biden just kept his word and let us have an actual primary where Kamala predicably would have lost early on.
Instead we got a half assed bait and switch for the worst polling candidate possible. I swear she was picked because she was the cheapest corpo money could buy.
The DNC needs to be dissolved because they keep picking loser corporate stooges that nobody likes in the belief that they can just AstroTurf and gaslight their way to popularity.
And she still probably have won if she'd stuck with the campaign she was running at the start, rather than ditching it to pivot right
What, Liz Cheney wasn't good enough for you?? 🙃 Seriously, that's when i knew we were sunk. What a fucking disaster
She also got the Clintons to campaign for her; HRC went down to Florida and Bill went to Michigan, where he defended Israel to Muslim and Arab-American voters that Harris was ostensibly trying to win over.
lol
Would love to kick the DNC to the curb but at the beginning of this year everyone top to bottom was replaced. It is malleable and we need to change it to finally be progressive and actual leftist party for the people.
Everyone seems to conveniently forget the fact that the only one that was legally entitled to any of the money raised for Biden’s campaign, over like 3 years of fundraising, was Kamala because she was on the ticket.
Restarting the fundraising process from scratch, after even just a 14-21 day primary process that would somehow also be built out of nowhere, would have meant whoever secured any nomination would have easily been outspent by a mile. They would have had no funds to even campaign on. It probably would have locked all the money that was already donated up too, considering that it would take quite some time to refund all of that money; figure out who was owed what exactly based on what hadnt been spent yet, etc…
Like what the fuck else did anyone expect to reasonably happen? It was stupid for Biden to ever say they could even have had a primary. The real promise he should have stuck to was when he claimed he would only be a one term president years beforehand
Lol, so that is how we decide presidential nominees now? Who has the money backing…
Agree - but bad take

You unconditionally support a genocide for just two years and suddenly you're a "war criminal." So much for the tolerant left.

i mean you lay down with dick cheney you get up with war crimes knowwhatimean?
The VP has basically no power other than try to persuade the POTUS behind the scenes, which from what I've read, she did to some degree, but to no effect.
Where she blew it was when she said she wouldn't do anything different than Biden. That was the end for her campaign. (regardless of whether anyone thinks it should have been that way or not, IMO that was the death blow)

What an incredible disappointment of generational proportion she was.
People like Biden and Harris and Obama and the Clintons are leading us down the road of complacence to the fundamental problems that are destroying us. They deserve nothing but derision and scorn. This is the test of our time. The future is with, in so much as it can be “with” politics, people like Mamdani and Platner. If you are against these policy proposals and against the culture of these campaigns, you are against progressive politics and you are against rational governance.
If you’re against these campaigns you can go fuck yourself right to hell, and you will be written into history accordingly.
There is absolutely no reason to cast out Trump, Vance, Johnson, and Miller if we don't also cast out Obama, Pelosi, Schumer, and Jeffries. The old Democratic guard is committed to just leading us right back to where we are now.
