Strategically Vance was a dumb pick. Might as well pick Vivek. Imagine if Trump picked someone like Tulsi Gabbard. You gain women, independents and probably even some just left of center democrats. I’m thinking Trump was banking on running against Biden.
I wasn't sure who it would be, but I thought Trump would go with a woman. Perfect opportunity to pull some additional votes that might be on the fence.
Too bad he's too fucking prideful to have picked Haley, which to any other politician, would have been the clear strategic choice.
I think Kristi Noem was the presumptive pick for a long time, but the dog shooting story torpedoed that.
No way, Tulsi would have been great. She would bring in more votes than Vance for sure given her background. Moderates in particular like her a lot more, she's an ideal VP candidate if you want to win votes (I doubt she has Vance's money ties though). She's also the one that torpedoed Kamala's bid for president in 2020, absolutely crushed her in the debates. I imagine she would be just as good against whoever Kamala nominates. I was really hoping Biden would have stayed in the race and Tulsi got the nod, would have been great to see her go against Kamala again.
Isn't this just doing what conservatives claim Biden did with Harris?
I don't think she was gonna get picked. I think she's just popular with the "Fox News" sorta crowd.
Biden pretty much admitted this is what he did with Harris. Same with his SCOTUS pick…
Of course, and that's incredibly stupid on his part. I think Harris is a qualified VP pick, I disagree with a huge chunk of her politics but she's not really that much different than Pence/Gore/Quayle/Mondale in terms of "qualifications". Brown Jackson looks like she has a better "resume" than ACB and not too different than Kav/Gors.
Well one, they didn’t. When you narrow your selection to only black women, that’s a DEI pick. He did her a huge disservice in doing so. Her terrible performance in Iowa didn’t help the argument.
To win. That’s like asking if democrats complain about republicans lying why do they lie.
If you don’t have a brain, sure we could stop there and all go home happy.
The GOP tries to play the DEI card.
Don’t need to play the DEI card, even if she is the most significant DEI hire ever. Don’t need the Willie Brown card. Don’t need to dwell on the fact that she is not qualified and has a super annoying cackle. Don’t need to dwell on her inability to speak well.
You’re lost if your first example of playing the DEI card is a Christian.
It was Ben Carson. For some reason he was made director of HUD. Lol
Do you change your accent or the words you choose to use? I change my words depending on the audience, but don't fake an accent to pretend like I am the same. They are completely different, and one can be deemed racist or insulting.
There in the spaghetti hitting the wall stage. Give them a few more weeks to really iron out the reasons they don’t like her lol.
In tend to cuss quite a bit more when I hangout with blue collar people/close friends. My drawl tends to become a bit more pronounced as well if I’m completely comfortable.
Sure, you could argue that if you are a racist, misogynist simpleton. Kamala is far more qualified than Vance and/or Trump to hold high office and it isn’t even a close call. That’s probably why she is now ahead in six of seven swing states. And when she picks the PA governor as her running mate next week (I suspect) it’ll be 7 of 7 and the Christian white nationalists’ heads will explode because their cult leader will get beat by a black woman and a Jew.
Cool, im not sure what your point is. A half dead Biden beat Trump so why couldn’t Bidens token black women beat Trump? I’ve said for weeks Kamala will beat Trump.
