        Yep. Harris is a traditional, middle-of-the-road milquetoast politician. She’s probably too conservative for progressives and regardless of her positions will be painted as a flaming lefty by conservative media. She will probably have similar results to Biden, who was until now on track to lose.

        I hope that she gains some superhuman self-awareness and takes some risks with actual progressive politics - she’ll get bad press from the Fox echo chamber, but right now she needs any press to get voters to pay attention.

        Harris is a self-serving prosecutor who routinely oversentenced people to private prison just to boost her political career.

        She was the most tone deaf choice in the wake of the Floyd murder and BLM protests, her skin color notwithstanding.

          Can she string two sentences together? I don’t think you realize how low the bar’s fallen, buddy.
