If it's going to ever have an effect it's now. The libs are doing good suddenly but they'll want to keep the vibes going. Probably time to see if we can make the mask come off or they'll make a concession.

They look stronger than ever but it's the Dems, these swapups are coming from their fear.

    We gotta start screaming again like we did with Biden. Look at how well that turned things around. Keep the pressure up.

    I’m not voting for Kamala until she stands up for Palestine.

    Does she want Trump to get elected? Better stand up. lol

      I really respect the Michigan protestors who interrupted the festivities tonight. This turnaround isn't going to work if the pressure stays on

        Same. In the opposite direction, I was disgusted by Kamala’s reaction to the protesters. How Americans can be so flippant about a genocide we are providing support to is disturbing. But, I guess indifference is the standard reaction here.

        Question though, what did you mean by your second sentence? Not sure if I’m understanding it correct

          by "turnaround" he meant the dems regaining the lead over trump after ditching biden. They'll want to keep that momentum going and avoid bad press, so they might be more willing than usual to meet some demands of pro-Palestine protesters

            Ahhh! See, I was reading it as the free Palestine movement would undo any good that came from the Biden switch. Just wanted to make sure I was understanding correct. Thanks!

          The Dems "turnaround"? Idk where we're disagreeing

          Maybe I should've put it in quotes initially lol, we're all seeing the same thing

          I figured my original post would be contextual enough that I'm firmly on the fuck the Dems side of this

            No disagreement! But if I’m reading right, you’re suggesting that the free Palestine movement will undo the positivity that’s currently came from the Biden switch? If I got that right, I can see where you’re coming from. But I guess I do kinda disagree, in that I think we can press the party to do anything we want so long as Trump is the enemy. But I also don’t really know shit, so there’s that too lmao

          How Americans can be so flippant about a genocide

          well, genocide is foundational to america so I'd be more surprised if the state effectivly opposed it

    Yup, people need to be firm in that just because genocide has a new friendly face doesn't mean it's stopped.

    Dems have got to learn that appealing to right-wing policies will get them a Trump victory

    Changing presidential candidate is like buying a new dress and getting a great hair style after a breakup. You feel like a new person for a couple of months and forget that you’re a toxic piece of shit.
