Kamala Harris has launched her campaign for the White House, after President Joe Biden stepped aside Sunday under pressure from party leaders.
The vice president has Biden’s endorsement, and is unchallenged as yet for the Democratic nomination, which will be formally decided at the Aug. 19 convention in Chicago.
“I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination,” Harris said in a statement. “I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party—and unite our nation—to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda. We have 107 days until Election Day. Together, we will fight. And together, we will win.”
In her statement, the vice president paid tribute to Biden’s “extraordinary leadership,” saying he had achieved more in one term than many presidents do in two.
Don’t cut yourself on that edge, man.
Here in the real world, which you should spend some time in, Kamala Harris can win, but that doesn’t mean she will win, and people should recognize that, of course. But fuck fatalism.
Why do you say that? Can you explain yourself beyond just an absolute statement?
She can.
Want to keep going like this? Or do you maybe want to have a real conversation and express a point beyond fatalism?
Cannot. Do not pretend that Democrats aren’t filled with sexist and racist voters that won’t vote for her or vote at all.
