      It's bonkers to me though. Like are there any voters that fit this tiny demographic who aren't going to vote for Kamala, that would suddenly switch to voting for her, from this?

      Like what base of voters who were discouraged, are going to be energized by this?

      Like how many?

      And then compare that to how many they are discouraging with their embrace of Dick Cheney and committing a genocide.

      Like this doesn't add up. At all, and I'm not even charging millions for this advice.

      Like you could make a case that this gets The Young People activated, but there are other ways that have bigger impact and could accomplish the same thing, more effectively, for less money

        You gotta get creative when your official platform is indistinguishable from the RNC ticket.

        Harris has the political instincts of a brunch liberal. They don't have to have stronger instincts because they land somewhere anyway. good-morning

          You make a good point. She dropped out of the primary in 2016 before she got her ass handed to her in her home state, and she is now the presidential nominee in 2020 without having a single voter vote for her so really why would she think this wouldn't work
