I was sure it was going to be professional genocide ghoul Shapiro. Color me surprised.
This is one of most popular posts on Bluesky.
with a wine mom and a public school dad on the ticket you can really think of this year’s democratic ballot as the ultimate triumph of resistance libs

It’s only ~1 hour old and it has 2.8k likes which is quite a lot for that site. I bet the post will surely become the most popular in a 24 hour period.
i have already had one annoying conversation about these two and i know it’s nowhere near the last
Kelly made more sense imo. He could totally take the wind out of the Republicans’ sails on the attempted Trump assassination because he’s married to Gabby Giffords and she got way worse than a free industrial ear piercing, and they could go on the attack on gun control and make it personal. (I know the Dems would never go on the attack other than “sir have you no decency” and “he did document stuff wrong” but still)
I feel like he would be a good pick in another year but at this stage of the game Walz’s clipability and charisma (the “weird” things) are probably a better choice.
Plus, all those Midwestern states that used to be called “the blue firewall” are up in the air these days. If he can help secure Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin for Kamala, that’s a big edge for them.
I think most people have forgotten about the assassination thing already tbh
It’s wild how fast that dropped out of the news and public discourse. Nobody seems to give a shit that he came within millimeters of having his head blown off on live TV, which is super funny.
He didn’t even get the normal “Survived an assassination attempt” boost in popularity, he almost got shot and half the country went “wish he died” lmfao
Unions didn’t like him, plus the dems would need to try to win his senate seat in a special election.
God watching 2016 round 2 is gunna be devastating for the libs in here…
Yeah it will be shocking because there is no possible surprise left. Trump was an outsider, he campaigned on so many different stances that are completely different from how his own base see him now. Who exactly is embarrassed to say they’re voting for Trump now for example? Look at that RNC cult shit with them all wearing the ear bandage or whatever. Absolutely pathetic but also a glimpse of how completely proud they are.
Also Hillary was definitely far more like Biden’s path, even he could have had a better chance if he wasn’t such a deranged out of touch nazi and zionist. Fucking talking about Bidenomics and NATO while people can’t afford rent lol.
If the new team is even remotely more competent, which seems like it, its realy hard to imagine this being like 2016 at all.
Also while all this happens Trump fumbled with the Vance shit already. He can’t even be as competent as he was in 2016 anyway.
The outcome should be extremely funny either way. Either they beat Trump handily and both Trump and Hillary Clinton immediately explode, or 2016 2 happens and libs immediately explode. Looking at lots of the world’s worst people being super mad no matter what happens.
Fun fact: Kamala is only 6 months younger than Walz
The mandatory Midwestern diet of exclusively honey ham and corn is not conducive to aging gracefully.
If you store the cream cheese within viewing distance of salt and pepper, it basically counts as guacamole.
