Why would they stop? That's been the most effective attack they've had in a long time! Especially because it's true, and I think the Republicans know it on some level.
Why would they stop?
Dems started doing bipartisant shit again so they couldnt keep doing the attacks anymore
But hey, now you have Dick Cheney
Meanwhile all the libs are cheering as if this was a good thing because unity or something. Yeah nah if Dick Cheney likes you you've done something wrong.
Ratchet theory of American Politics strikes again.
waiting for the day that democrats look upon cheney's as democratic heros like they do with obama; or clinton; or carter; or roosevelt; etc.
Gotta love that "Every Dem is basically Ronald Reagan at this point" feeling!
i was alive an active during the reagan years and i think this one's worse because the bad stuff that didn't come from the top in that period originated from a place of genuine ignorance. the internet makes genuine ignorance impossible so now all the bad stuff comes from a place of intention through willful ignorance and it think that's worse.
afterall believing that a group show be looked down upon because that how you're taught to be behave is one thing and fixable with a little bit of knowledge; but believing that those people should be denigrated because they deserve it is both an entirely different scenario and also unfixable w/o them letting you into their psyche.
They did, apparently new conservative advisors advised them to stop using it because it might alienate white suburbanites. Its why we've seen the vibe shift after the Walz pick. They decided to court white suburbanites and never trump republicans rather than their natural base. The Democrats love to lose folks.
Now some of the "bipartisanship" makes sense. Republicans just want to ditch Trump for that more competent fascist and then abandon Harris in 2028. Dems narrowly squeeze out a win and then the more competent fascist and other fash cronies win big time in 2028 as democrats completely let their guard down.
They should just declare the democratic-republican party and end this 2 party farce they have been running for over a century now
Do they have one of those in the pressure cooker? They all seem out of touch. I would expect someone who read Kapital, said "fantastic!", and was a natural public speaker to fill that role and act as an insidious ratchet turner. Instead they're like if Holsten Bloodfeast used ChatGPT to say the most average talking points of a Google search for being an asshole
new conservative advisors
The UK Labor Party narrowly won an election they should've taken in a landslide and sent over all their consultants to 'help' Kamabla, and they're the ones who got them off the weird shit.
Which the 'weird' thing had annoying ableist undertones but it was also working a lot better than whatever they're doing now.
Oh well, death to amerikkka, nice to see them eating shit with the new strat, the genocidal pain pigs they are.
"Wow everything is going great, tell you what let's bring on some new advisors and completely change course" - Rational, sane, smart thing to do
"Wow everything is going to shit, tell you what let's continue to listen to these new advisors we brought on and not listen to the people we listened to when everything was going great." - Also rational sane and a very smart move.Dems have the best political instincts!
After trump, the Republicans will find someone more palatable to run. Those white suburbanites they've been working so hard to court will go right back.
In the end they'll only alienate more POC.
But it's gonna be Jill Stein and leftist's fault when she loses.
to the polls.
Kamala was poised to start her Republican praise tour, so that line of attack had to be canned.
sucking off Dick
This is why I'm starting my own volcel party and running against the Dems.
If you pivot to "I will place Republicans in my cabinet" then you also need to stop calling Republicans weird.
It's been wild watching the campaign more or less retrace Clinton's losing strategy.
I wonder why they started to copy her. Anyway here's some articles that are completely unrelated
- Meet Philippe Reines, the Hillary Clinton's aide, who is helping Kamala Harris ahead of debate with Donald Trump
- Inside Kamala Harris' inner circle of trusted allies (which consists of at least 4 Clinton aides)
- Hillary Clinton Hires Kamala Harris' Sister as Top Policy Adviser
Probably not related tho
Isn't Philippe Reines the guy who was too much of a woman-hating psycho for the Clinton campaign? I seem to recall a chapo episode that mentioned him by name as one of the "ice-chewing psychos" from the Clinton camp.
Why wouldn't you hire them. They were so incredible at getting trump elected in 2016...
I remember hearing about it on some podcast around a week ago. They brought on a strategist from either Biden 2020 or Clinton 2016 who thought that "weird" was running a negative attack campaign. It doesn't match the vibes of Joy Reich where you can only do wholesome things like advocate for genocide.
Democratic party guide to campaigning
When your polls are
get rid of whoever it is that's advising you and bring in some new people from failed campaigns
When your polls are
don't change what you're doing! That will make you look weak! Especially now that you just changed advisors!Remember 99% of politicians stop supporting genocide right as it becomes popular
They got "lol tumblr SJW" PTSD from the last time they ever fought back against racists and went back to ring-kissing republicans....who still call them tumblr SJWs.
One of the most foundational pillars of American national mythology is the notion of "loyal opposition," that politics is about compromise, not about conflict. At the end of the day, the Republican Party must always be treated as a legitimate institution, so this rhetoric was abandoned.
It only really worked until voters got to know Harris and Walz, who are both incredibly weird in their own right
Liz Cheney got a standing ovation at the Copmala FireSSide Chat. They know their ideal audience.
it turned out all their big donors are massive weirdos, so they received instructions to cool it.
They brought in UK Labor party strategists who have encourage the campaign to follow Starmer's example of trying to bring in conservatives, non withstanding that Starmer got less votes than Corbyn and only won because of Tory/Reform party vote splitting.
They ran it into the ground, and it started to wrap all the way around, becoming "weird" itself. Someone here recently commented that in their area, Libs were going around putting little
[ weird --> ]signs next to republican candidate yard signs. To go through all that effort, for something so boring, is also fucking weird. Who has the time?Waltz recently called Elon Musk a "Dipshit" at a rally. I say we just migrate away from 'weird' and just go full throttle into using language the FCC wouldn't let you use on prime-time TV to describe Republicans.
I want to hear Harris say on ABC tonight that "Republicans are a bunch of fucking stupid shitheads."
Walz called Elon Musk a Dipshit.
I still ain't voting for his ticket, but I appreciate that he is willing to call out a truth we all see.
